The Official Result
Karol Rosa def. Pannie Kianzad—Unanimous Decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
AN
Angelo Bodetti Expert Confident picked Aug 4, 2024 (6 days before fight)
Karol Rosa

Angelo picks Karol Rosa due to her insane volume (204 significant strikes in a three-round fight), pressure, and grit. He notes that Pannie is a more technical boxer but will struggle if she's on her back foot against Rosa's volume. He also mentions Rosa has solid takedown offense and defense.

Over 2.5 rounds should be safe but got burned on that last time with Pannie
"HOSA is the pick"
CO
Cody Saftic Expert Confident picked Aug 7, 2024 (3 days before fight)
Pannie Kianzad

Cody also picks Kianzad, calling Rosa's style frustrating and noting she doesn't use her BJJ or adjust game plans. He believes Kianzad lands better shots and has a plus number, making her the play. He mentions both have been knocked down by Lena Lansburg, which is a useless but funny stat.

"total doger pass total CF dot model peny kad's got A plus number next to her name that's my pick this week"
MM
MMA Lock of the Night Expert Lean picked Aug 5, 2024 (5 days before fight)
Karol Rosa

Rosa is the better overall fighter with a more well-rounded game, but her lack of urgency in past fights is a concern. She can win by mixing in grappling behind her striking, but the fight likely goes to a split decision. The line is a bit high; waiting for a better price around -130 to -140 is advised.

Rosa by split decision; maybe taking either woman to win by split decision
"I still am going to lean on the HOSA side here as I think she's the better overall fighter and I'm really hoping that she decides to go to a grappling here behind her striking so she can separate herself …"
PA
Paul Shaughnessy Expert Confident picked Aug 7, 2024 (3 days before fight)
Pannie Kianzad

Paul picks Kianzad at plus 180, viewing the fight as a coin flip striking affair. He criticizes Rosa's lack of fight IQ, poor takedown defense, and inability to adjust. He notes Kianzad has better striking volume and can land the better shots.

"I took uh I found a plus 180 uh earlier this morning and uh took Penny keed that's uh that's where I'm at here"
TH
The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Aug 8, 2024 (2 days before fight)
Karol Rosa

The MMA Guru picks Karol Rosa, stating she is more committed to the game and younger than Pannie Kianzad. He does not provide extensive technical analysis but expresses confidence in her dedication and age advantage.

"I'm going to go with Carol Rosa winning that one... I just think she's more committed to the game way more committed to the game"

Angelo Bodetti Expert Confident picked Mar 11, 2024 (5 days before fight)
Macy Chiasson

Angelo acknowledges Kianzad has a big striking advantage with her boxing, but she was unable to get up off the bottom in her last fight against Ketlen Vieira. Chiasson has added grappling to her game, taking down Norma Dumont six times and Irene Aldana three times. He thinks Chiasson will get takedowns and hold Kianzad down. He also suggests a plus 3.5 round bet on Kianzad as she might win a round on the feet.

Pannie Kianzad +3.5 rounds (buying points) if odds drop
"I got to go with Macy here here I think she'll squeak in a taked down hold her down maybe panny can steal a round so a plus three and a half might be a good bet there"
BI
Big Brady Expert Confident picked Mar 12, 2024 (4 days before fight)
Macy Chiasson

Big Brady picks Macy Chiasson to win by decision. He expects Chiasson's size and physicality to be too much for Kianzad, allowing her to control the fight against the cage and on the mat. He references Kianzad's recent loss to Vieira as a blueprint.

CO
Cody Saftic Expert Lean picked Mar 13, 2024 (3 days before fight)
Macy Chiasson

Cody leans toward Macy Chiasson, citing her size, physicality, and grappling advantage. He notes she has choked Kianzad out before and is the better grappler. However, he is wary of the minus 240 line due to Chiasson's weight cut struggles and long layoff. He suggests waiting for weigh-ins before betting.

"Macy Chiasson... she's a bigger stronger more physical bruiser on the feet... she's already choked her out once."
LU
Lucrative James Expert Confident picked Mar 12, 2024 (4 days before fight)
Macy Chiasson

Lucrative James picks Macy Chiasson to win, likely by submission or ground-and-pound TKO. He notes that Chiasson is physically stronger, has better grappling, and finished Kianzad before on The Ultimate Fighter. He also questions whether Kianzad has lost a step and mentions Chiasson's recent performances against tough opponents. He expresses concern about Chiasson's weight cut but still expects her to win.

Chiasson by submission
"I'm gonna go with Chase on here to get a submission win again maybe she gets a ground and pound TKO."
MM
MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Mar 15, 2024 (1 day before fight)
Macy Chiasson

The host acknowledges Kianzad's striking advantage but believes she will be frustrated by Chiasson's grapple-heavy approach. He notes Chiasson's ability to bully opponents in the clinch and get fights to the ground easily, where she can rough up Kianzad from top position for the majority of the fight and win by decision.

"I think we'll see kiasan Drager to the mat rougher up from that top position and keep her there for the majority of 15 minutes eventually getting her hand raised by decision"
PA
Paul Shaughnessy Expert picked Mar 13, 2024 (3 days before fight)

Paul passes on betting this fight, noting Chiasson's weight cut issues and unimpressive recent performances. He mentions the bizarre liver kick loss to Aldana and questions her durability. He does not pick a winner and says it's a pass from a betting perspective.

"There's no way I bet minus 240 on Macy Chiasson it's going to be a pass from a betting perspective."
TH
The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Mar 12, 2024 (4 days before fight)
Macy Chiasson

The Guru picks Macy Chiasson, citing her physicality, power, and improved kicks. He notes she outmuscled Kianzad in their first fight and choked her out. He believes Chiasson has more options in the clinch and at range, and that Kianzad is purely a boxer with a reach disadvantage. He expects Chiasson to win by decision, possibly 30-27 or 29-28.

Pannie Kianzad vs. Ketlen Vieira
BETTING PREVIEW | SCOUTING REPORT | ODDS: Vieira (-150), Kianzad (+130)

Round 1
The fight with arguably the greatest title implications tonight is buried in the middle of the prelims, as the women’s bantamweight division is still championless and the perceived “uncrowned queen” of Holly Holm was knocked down a peg last week. Both women on the outside of the UFC’s top five looking in, Vieira (13-3, 7-3 UFC) and Kianzad (16-6, 5-3 UFC) will engage in a crucial contest at 135 pounds. With neither woman sporting a stoppage rate over 50%, referee Jason Herzog could be in it for the long haul here. Vieira offers a glove touch, but Kianzad wants nothing to do with it. Instead, Kianzad races forward pushing out straight punches down the middle. Vieira dodges back and reaches out with a heavy right hand, and Kianzad is out of the way in time. Vieira sticks out a jab, and Kianzad catches her with a left hand and a right over the top. Kianzad pokes out a jab, and she follows with a left hook that bounces off the guard. Vieira shoots in for a low single-leg takedown, and she lifts Kianzad’s leg up and throws her down to land right in side control. Kianzad recovers to half guard when Vieira sets up an arm-triangle choke, and the Brazilian still has her left arm hooked around the head of her opponent. Vieira looks to isolate Kianzad’s left arm for a potential armlock, and Kianzad turns to her side to stop it from coming together. Vieira powers her back over with shoulder pressure, smothering “Banzai” and returning her flat to her back. Kianzad gets back to a guard and she sets up butterfly hooks to push off, and this allows Vieira to punch her square in the face. Kianzad responds with a few strikes off her back, but the ones she absorbs from “Fenomeno” are far heavier. Kianzad looks to push off the midsection, but Vieira stays heavy as a ton of bricks and steps into the half guard. Vieira controls her adversary and presses her shoulder into Kianzad’s face and neck, and frustrating the Swede. Vieira grabs hold of the left arm and isolates it to grip for a kimura, and Kianzad protects herself by putting it under her back. As Vieira shifts to north-south position, the bell rings.

Round 2
The ladies meet in the middle of the cage, and Kianzad leads off with a looping left hook. Vieira blocks it and replies in kind, and the strike from the Brazilian glances off the raised guard. When Kianzad kicks low, Vieira gives her three punches over the top. Kianzad steps in to punch, and Vieira snatches up the lead leg and easily throws Kianzad to the canvas. Vieira goes right to half guard, and a desperate Kianzad is able to pull her into her guard and closes it up. Kianzad times a moment in transition to push her foot off Vieira’s body, but Vieira is able to casually shift back over the half guard. Vieira starts hunting for a kimura, and Kianzad defends it but starts taking heavy body shots. Vieira gloms onto her, and she hops into full mount and quickly locks down an arm-triangle choke. Vieira squeezes with her full body weight, and Kianzad defends it with her left arm between the grip of her opponent and her own neck. Kianzad turns the proper way to protect her neck, and Vieira abandons the submission. Kianzad explodes to her side, and she attempts to turn over and get to her knees so she can get back up. Vieira bowls her over and puts her on her back again. With 30 seconds remaining, Vieira tries to lock down an arm-triangle choke on the other side, but Kianzad is wise to it and is not in submission danger. The round ends with Vieira on top.

Round 3
A fire seemingly lit under her backside, Kianzad springs right into action, rushing at Vieira with punches in bunches. When Kianzad overextends on a left hook, Vieira smartly changes levels, coming up with a clean double-leg takedown to put Kianzad on her back 15 seconds into the final frame. Kianzad does everything she can to scoot her way to the wall, and this gives up her back in the process. Vieira leans with her back against the fencing, holding onto Kianzad from behind and sliding her hooks in. The leverage for any submission is not there, until she turns to lower herself to the floor. Vieira sets up a rear-naked choke, and Kianzad hand-fights to save herself from getting tapped. When Kianzad thwarts the choke, Vieira locks up a body triangle to further make Kianzad’s life miserable. Kianzad is able to defend from the choke setups, and she grits her teeth and spins around to secure top position with about two minutes left in the fight. Kianzad opens up with punches when she winds up on top, and Vieira clings to her to shut down the offense. Kianzad frees herself and stands up, and she jumps down to nail Vieira with a diving right hand. As Kianzad does damage from the guard, the commentary team starts discussing people walking their cats in strollers. All the while, Kianzad is doing anything she can to hunt for a finish, flailing with punches and hammerfists. Vieira pushes off with the ball of her foot, and she smacks Kianzad in the face with one illegally. Herzog checks on Kianzad, who says she is fine and wants to keep going. Kianzad rains down punches to any target, marking up Vieira’s right eye, and swinging frantically. Vieira throws her legs up high for a triangle choke, and she simultaneously grips an armbar, and the horn blares.

Pannie Kianzad

Kianzad has superior striking and can use her jab to stay on the outside, while Davis is slower and relies on grappling. Kianzad showed she can survive takedowns and come back in later rounds, as seen in her last fight. However, Davis is durable and could grind out a win if she gets takedowns. Kianzad likely wins a decision if she fights disciplined.

Jessica-Rose Clark

Big Brady picks Jessica-Rose Clark by default, calling it one of the sketchiest fights on the card. He notes Lisboa looks good on tape with a Muay Thai background and 100% finish rate, but all her wins are against low-level competition. Whenever she faced a relevant opponent (Norma Dumont, Larani Santos), she lost. Clark has fought actual UFC fighters and beaten some, though she's on a two-fight skid. Brady expects Clark to win by decision but has no confidence and won't bet on it.

Cody picks Clark, citing her physical strength, experience, and ability to grind against the cage. He notes that Clark's recent losses came against grapplers, while Lisboa is a striker with poor grappling. He expects Clark to implement her game plan of clinching and takedowns. He acknowledges Clark's broken arm and layoff but believes she has the edge.

Daniel Levi leans with the newcomer Tainara Lisboa, believing her trajectory is higher than Jessica-Rose Clark's, who appears to be on a decline. He notes Clark's recent losses and that Lisboa, a Muay Thai champion, has crushed lower-level competition. While Clark has more experience, Levi thinks Lisboa's upside and youth give her the edge in a fight that could go either way.

"I'm gonna lean with the newcomer man I just think that her trajectory is slightly higher at this point in their respective careers"

Jessica-Rose Clark

Clark's physicality and grappling experience should be too much for Lisboa, who has faced low-level competition. Clark can shut down Lisboa's Muay Thai with clinch and ground work, outmuscle her, and win by decision. However, confidence is low due to Clark's recent losses and Lisboa's potential improvement.

"I think she wins I think she'll come up with a good enough game plan to shut down that Muay Thai of Lisboa and just put it through the ringer in terms of the grappling ROM and clinch game"

Jessica-Rose Clark

Zane picks Jessica-Rose Clark, despite her mental struggles, because Tainara Lisboa is very raw and lacks a clear skill. He notes that Clark's panic-wrestling could work against Lisboa, who has poor technique and is easy to take down. Zane expects Clark to win by decision or submission, but acknowledges her inconsistency.

He is wary of Stoliarenko's armbar specialty but thinks Clark should win if she fights smart. He does not bet due to recency bias and lack of trust.

Stoliarenko is a submission specialist with 8 of 9 wins via armbar. Clark can be sloppy on top and Stoliarenko will threaten submissions from her back. Clark's win over Sarah Alpar may be overvalued; she was exposed by Stephanie Edgar. Stoliarenko's armbar is a live threat at plus money.

Egger's judo could neutralize Clark's grappling; she can redirect momentum and get takedowns of her own. Clark's grappling is still developing, and she slowed down in her last fight.

Jessica-Rose Clark vs. Joselyne Edwards

Round 1
Bantamweight women draw the “featured fight of the night” slot when “Jessy Jess” Clark (10-6, 3-2 UFC) returns after a year away to take on “La Pantera” Edwards (10-3, 1-1 UFC). Wanting to get right after it, the ladies do not touch gloves as referee Keith Peterson watches on with no nonsense in sight. The women crash together immediately, and Clark pursues and hits an early takedown. When they hit the ground, Clark comfortably takes top position, where she slowly works her opponent over with strikes. The first half of the round proceeds the same way, with Clark doing little more than lay-and-pray until Peterson stands them up with two minutes left in the round. Clark thanks Peterson for this standup by clinching right up again, and when she goes after another takedown, Edwards reverses her and spins her around on the mat. Clark fights her way back to her feet as Edwards hold on to the grip from behind, and the woman from Panama tries to score a big head kick. Edwards lays into her opponent when on the feet, getting off several punches and a kick, but Clark quickly stops any more offense so she can ground “La Pantera” again. Although Edwards kicks her off for a moment, Clark climbs back on top to ride out the grind-filled round.

Round 2
Clark comes out aggressively, but the fight stays on its feet longer than the previous round as Clark decides to let her hands go a little. As Edwards tries to sting her with punches, Clark darts in with an elbow that partially grazes the forehead. Unlike the last period, Edwards decides to go after her own takedown try. Clark watches video of herself fighting to see the position where she cannot otherwise observe, allowing her to break the posture and spin Edwards around briefly. The two jockey for position against the cage until Clark changes levels for a takedown. Although Edwards grabs the cage, Clark is able to wrestle her down to the mat and pass to half guard. Slowly and methodically, Clark works her way over to secure full mount, and Edwards nearly gives her back up in the process. Clark stays heavy, keeping Edwards flat on her back but doing little more. No strikes of note, no submission attempts come from the Aussie, who is more content to just rack up control time. A couple punches land courtesy of “Jessy Jess” when Edwards tries to regain position, and she manages to kick Clark off of her. Edwards spams inaccurate kicks until the round concludes.

Round 3
The women touch gloves to clock in the last round, and Edwards starts off firing with a body kick and a few punches up top. “La Pantera” catches Clark with a combination, and the Aussie immediately clinches up to tie her up and stop the strikes from coming. As she maintains this position, she transitions into a body lock throw, and she successfully puts Edwards on her back again. Edwards can do nothing but lay on her back, as she goes back and forth closing her guard and keeping it open. On the offensive side, Clark is also ineffective once she lands the singular takedown, grinding and burning daylight. Clark stands up and looks to rain down a punch or two, but she lowers herself back into Edwards’ guard where the fight stalls out. Although Clark moves to half guard, that is the extent of her activity, without landing a strike of note or even contemplating a submission maneuver. Edwards occasionally bucks, and scoots her way to lean her back on the wall, all while Peterson watches over them getting ready to stand them up. Edwards walk her way up the fencing, and Clark times a knee on the jaw right when Edwards pulls her hand off the mat. The Aussie goes right back to a takedown, easily planting Edwards on her back, where she has successfully tamed “La Pantera.” With one second to go, Clark takes mount; not able to do anything with it with that little time, the horrendous fight goes to decision and is now thankfully over.

Angelo likes Clark because she has more ways to win: power in the pocket, grappling if needed. Edwards needs to fight a specific calculated fight at range, while Clark can just come forward and make it dirty. He notes Clark has 55% takedown accuracy and averages one takedown per fight. He thinks -140 is a good price and plans to bet the moneyline. He will have her at 8500 in DraftKings.

Cody leans towards Joselyne Edwards as a live underdog. He acknowledges that Jessica-Rose Clark's path to victory is through wrestling, but questions whether Clark will actually implement that game plan. Cody notes that Clark has never scored more than two takedowns in a UFC fight and that her wrestling success came against smaller opponents. He points out that Edwards is a natural bantamweight, younger, and training at Kings MMA with top competition. Cody believes Edwards can keep the fight standing and win a close decision.

Paul initially leans towards Jessica-Rose Clark, seeing a clear path via wrestling. He notes Clark's improved defensive wrestling against Sarah Alpar and believes she can take Edwards down and control her. However, Paul is hesitant because of Clark's face tattoo, which he jokingly associates with a tendency to brawl rather than wrestle. He also worries that Clark might not shoot for takedowns and instead engage in a striking match, where she could be at a disadvantage.

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Lean picked Sep 18, 2020 (1 day before fight)
Jessica-Rose Clark

The host thinks Jessica-Rose Clark has the striking advantage and improved physical strength, while Sarah Alpar is a wrestler who hasn't shown effective takedowns or comfort on the feet. However, he is not confident enough to bet at -230, citing Clark's recent losses and Alpar's potential if she can implement her wrestling. He predicts a decision win for Clark but advises staying away from betting.

"I'll go with jessica rose clark to win this five year decision but i don't want to risk any of my money on this."
