UFC Fight Night: Virna Jandiroba vs Angela Hill Fight Breakdown and Prediction
Before making her UFC debut, Virna Jandiroba was undefeated in her 14 fight MMA career. However, Carcara couldn’t emulate the same kind of domination in the UFC as she has lost three of her six fights in the promotion.
However, Jandiroba’s striking game is not as threatening as her ground game. Because of her low output of strikes and efficiency. On the other hand, Overkill has excellent striking skills. Hill’s cardio is remarkable which helps her push aggressively throughout the three rounds of the fight and land a lot of damage. Moreover, Angela’s ground game is also decent which could come in handy against a submission threat like Virna.
