Weird matchup to make considering Tecia is on a 3 fight win streak and Dern just lost.
 
Dern needs to pull a Mir and take home an arm or shoulder to get that push she needs in 2022.
 
Could easily see Torres point fighting to a decision victory. Or Dern somehow manages to take her down and submits her. I'm thinking the former is more likely. Torres -125.
 
I see Tecia using her hamster dance style to win a dec.
 
Tecia will beat her by UD. Mackenzie won't be able to take her down, but even if she does take her down, Tecia has never been finished.

Tecia will easily outstrike her.

I don't think Dern will have an easy time taking Tecia down.

Dern's takedowns are pretty awful but it's not like Tecia has good takedown defence by any means, pretty much everyone who's tried to take her down has succeeded. I'm pretty sure Dern can get her down at least once, and in a 3 round fight that could be enough to steal a round or 2 and win.
 
To be fair Tecia has won 3 in a row and outclassed Hill on the feet. Her past 4 losses are against all title challengers or champs aside from Rodriguez who is right there.
Yeah I think this is Tecia fight to lose. As long as she doesn't fall to the ground, her wrestling is better and her striking has been good recently.
 
While Torres is getting older (as are we all), what makes you say she's getting muscle-bound? Her physique has changed very little since early in her career, and cardio has always been one of her greatest strengths.

She literally just finished a body building contest where she looks more swoll then ever. But even before that she was much bigger in recent fights then when she entered the ufc.

I didn't hear what she weighed in that fitness competition, but it looked to me like she may have cut enough weight that she could've fought as an atomweight.
