MOLLY MCCANN VS HANNAH GOLDY LOWDOWN

Molly McCann (12-4) is coming off one of the most spectacular finishes in women’s MMA history and is lapping up every second. She met the rangy striker Luana Carolina in London back in March and it was a competitive scrap until McCann uncorked an unholy spinning back elbow to flatline the Brazilian. The epic knockout followed a unanimous decision win over Yeon Kim (2021) to bounce back from unanimous decision losses to Taila Santos (2020) and Lara Procopio (2021).

Hannah Goldy (6-2) has been lined up for her return on home soil and she is also coming off a ruthless finish. After losing her first two UFC fights via unanimous decision to Miranda Granger (2019) and Diana Belbita (2021), she decided to hold on to a few pounds and move back up to flyweight. It paid dividends cinching Emily Whitmire up in an armbar back in September last year.

MOLLY MCCANN VS HANNAH GOLDY PREDICTION

Goldy will not have experienced something like the O2 Arena before. The crowd will be raucous which will be matched by McCann’s energy. She will bring a furious pace from the bell and will look to overwhelm Goldy on the feet.

Goldy is a powerhouse and will try and spoil the party by making this boring and getting MCann on her and keeping her there. She has the ability to as a strong grappler, but we expect McCann’s power and takedown defence to keep the fight on the feet long enough to drown Goldy with her boxing.
