JOSIANE NUNES VS CHELSEA CHANDLER LOWDOWN
Josiane Nunes (10-1) is undefeated in the UFC but has only fought once a year since earning her debut. She knocked out Bea Malecki (2021) to cap off a six-fight knockout streak. She then went on to earn unanimous decisions over Ramona Pascual (2022) and Zarah Fairn (2023).
Chelsea Chandler (5-2) has also not been very active. Her first five fights were under the Invicta FC banner going 4-1. That led to her UFC debut where she TKO’d Julija Stoliarenko (2022). However, she then ran into and away from Norma Dumont (2023) who snapped the five-fight streak with a unanimous decision.
JOSIANE NUNES VS CHELSEA CHANDLER PREDICTION
Nunes’ knockout power is plain to see and used to clapping taller and heavier opponents. Chandler will boast a six-inch height and inch reach advantage which will look very pronounced in the cage.
Chandler is very powerful with decent striking and strong grappling. As long as she avoids Nunes’ hands, she has the weight, power and skill to completely overwhelm the Brazilian.
We understand why Nunes is the favourite, but if Chandler fights smart, she should cause the upset with the help of her grappling.
Prediction: Chandler via Decision
Value bet: Chandler to win
