Maria Oliveira

Maria Oliveira is holding a 12-5 record and she is yet to win her first UFC bout. Oliveira was unable to get past Tabatha Ricci in her debut and she will need to make up for that loss. On the other hand, wrestling might not be a stronghold for the Brazilian. Oliveira will need to work on her ground skills and hope to make the best of the situation. When it comes to wrestling on the ground, Oliveira is going to struggle, but lucky for her, Paula is not so great on the ground too.

Gloria de Paula

Gloria de Paula will turn to her Muay Thai skills and she is sure to engage with her combinations and kickboxing background. Paula will enter this fight with a 6-4 record and she is currently 1-2 in the UFC. Paula is coming off a victory against Diana Belbita. Paula’s victory against Belbita came in via decision and she is all set to get her second win in the UFC. It has been a hard start for Paula as well since she is 1-2 but the odds are shining for her to win this bout against Oliveira.
