News Amanda Lemos vs Jessica Andrade Announced

I don't think this matchup should br enough to get her a title shot tbh.

I don't think the ufc want andrade anywhere near rose, which is probably why they're not giving her a top contender right away, despite the fact that we all know andrade is of that top 5 skill level.
 
Andrade should win this one.

She should, yes, but I also like that Lemos gets the opportunity to fight a top-ranked contender in a division that needs new blood.

If she wins, she's instantly in line for a title shot.

High stakes for Amanda!

Probably, although it's possible Lemos knocks her out
 
She has more of a shot at the belt at SW.

Valentina thoroughly outclassed her for an extended period.

At SW, she’s 1-1 with Rose with their second fight benefiting Rose with being a 3 rounder.

The Weili fight was over very quick and hard to draw a lot of insight from for a future rematch arguably.

Weili hit her in the back of the head
 
Didn't Lemos struggle with Angela Hill? She is a killer but I'm not sure if she is ready for this step up.
Yeah. It's debatable if she deserved the W or not. Andrade is the kind of fighter that Lemos needs. Ones forward and throws heat. This will be a banger for as long as it lasts. I got Andrade here

Andrade also struggled with hill, and that was before hill was experienced.

Lemos might hit as hard as Andrade and is way cleaner I'm expecting a surprise upset.
Definitely r1 ko either way.
 
No. She went to a decision with her, but there was no struggling.
It was exciting, it had back and forth action, but no struggling. It was a case of people giving Hill a ton of credit for not getting finished
 
Never heard of lemos.

andrade should slam her on her head like she did to bald ugly rose.

Andrade should get the Rose/Esparza winner if she wins. Although Marina deserves a shot if she beats Yan.

Should have just done Andrade/Marina, Lemos/Yan
Lemos is a 34yo drug cheat, who has never beaten a high caliber opponent. The only reason she's getting Andrade is because Jessica is returning to the SW division, but she doesn't deserve to fight her, nor Yan for that matter.

Andrade has brute strength, not skills. She's not even top 20 in terms of skills.
