Angela at Claudia 5/16/20 - UFC Fight Night - Jacksonville 2 Picks & Predictions
Claudia Gadelha is heading into the fight here with a 5’4” frame and coming in at 115 pounds. When it comes to the reach she is able to reach up to 63 inches and that will help her out to a point in the fight, but it will not be as long of a reach as what Hill has.
For Gadelha she is coming into the fight here with an orthodox style which will fit her fighting style perfectly. Gadelha has a tendency to be seen as a fighter that uses the Jiu-Jitsu type of fighting style that is a perfect fit for her frame. Gadelha has not fought since July of 2019 and that last fight ended up being a win by a unanimous decision. In her last five bouts, Claudia has posted a 3-2 record.
Hill for her part is coming in with a reach advantage as she reaches out at 64.5 inches. However, the height for Hill is not going to help her out as she is coming into the fight only at 5’3” and when it comes to the weight she is standing at 115 pounds as well.
In her last fight Hill ended up winning by a decision, but the two fights before that Hill proved that she is a good fighter by scoring a TKO/KO win in them. In fact, Hill has not looked that bad in the last 5 bouts as she has ended up going 4-1 in those fights and has had a chance to look really good in those fights.
The fight here will actually end up being a good one and one that actually is going to be fairly even. However, look for Hill to land some strong blows in the fight and potentially send Gadelha reeling for a few minutes in the fight. The downside is Gadelha has been able to fight really well and is a good submission fighter. Look for Gadelha and her better conditioning to come into the fight here and outlast anything that Hill is able to throw at her. Fight Winner Prediction, Claudia Gadelha.
