We don't have odds yet for this fight and I am very curious to see what we get. Melissa is very good but her grappling is relatively untested. I expect her to be the better striker here but if she spent 15 minutes of this fight on her back, i would not be surprised. I am going to pick her because of her presence and finishing ability, but likely won't bet because of the UFC debut risk.
Melissa Croden
Melissa Croden is a clean striker and lifelong martial artist. She started as a kid with Tai Kwan Do and which evolved into Muay Thai. He throws heavy while staying clean. She is ridiculously tough on the feet but can have some grappling holes. She is a great prospect and very dangerous.
Tainara Lisboa
Tainara Lisboa is a striker with a Muay Thai background. She likes to load up on her feet and throw wild knees in the clinch. She moves well and has aggressive striking. Her takedown defense is mediocre but if she is taken down, she is constantly working and does have submissions in her back pocket. She is coming off the decision loss to Luana Santos where the takedown defense was the issue.
