Brett Okamoto spoke to Syndicate MMA coach John Wood to get his perspective on the UFC main event. ESPN betting expert Ian Parker adds insights and analysis on the main event and other intriguing bets he likes on the card.She has the advantage in the stand-up, everywhere. She has more power, speed and variety. If she can keep it on the feet, she should be able to win that matchup. I've coached against Lemos in the past, and she has a lot of tools to worry about.
However, Lemos is no stranger to fighting jujitsu experts, as she defeated her last opponent, Mackenzie Dern. Where Lemos has the advantage is on the feet with her striking. She carries knockout power and has used her grappling defense to keep the fight standing. In five of her past six fights, Jandiroba has gone all three rounds, while Lemos in her previous five of six has all gone over the 2.5-round mark. As much as I see value in Lemos as the underdog , the best play here is over 2.5 rounds.
Garica has become a must-see TV with his all-gas, no-brakes fighting style. He is riding a three-fight win streak with all the victories by KO/TKO, and with his next matchup against Choi, he will get No. 4. Choi is coming off a decision win, but he's been dropped at least once in his past five fights. Before his most recent win, he was on a three-fight losing streak, where he was finished twice. Look for Garica to land early and not allow Choi to recover.
After earning a contract via a first-round submission on"Dana White's Contender Series," Barbosa followed that up with her first official UFC win a couple of months ago, a unanimous decision against fellow UFC debutant. Maverick should have the edge everywhere. However, her sense of urgency to finish is just not there like when she was the blue-chip prospect earlier in her UFC career.
