This exciting fight between Erin “Cold Blooded” Blanchfield and Rose “Thug” Namajunas pits two dynamic fighters inside the Octagon as they flaunt some of their impressive striking and grappling capabilities. Slated to face off in the co-main event of UFC Edmonton, this battle has the makings of a very tactical and technical fight. Here’s our Blanchfield vs Namajunas betting analysis.
Erin Blanchfield Analysis: Aggressive Grappler with Evolving Striking
Erin Blanchfield has been known to be an aggressive, forward-moving fighter with a very solid grappling base. With her takedowns, Erin Blanchfield has generally been one to lay opponents onto the mat, a statistic that proved to be so paramount in her career, where she averaged 2.05 takedowns per round. An 81% takedown defense rate suggests she’s not someone who easily gets outmaneuvered on the ground.
- The volume of Blanchfield’s striking does have the potential to leave her open against Namajunas’ counterattacks, as the latter is known for precision over volume.
- While Blanchfield lost a decision to Manon Fiorot in her last bout, she proved to be durable with a high volume, landing an impressive 135 strikes. This will be one of the most exciting battles of this next UFC event for the MMA fans, although Blanchfield is favorite coming in, you never know what to expect with Namajunas.
Rose Namajunas Analysis: Well Rounded Striker with Adaptable Defense
Rose Namajunas is the former champion who brings an edge in experience, refined through her well-worked striking game. Namajunas is known to strike with great accuracy and comes in averaging 3.70 significant strikes per minute, landing at a solid 42% rate, while her defense is formidable, with a 64% strike defense that will be important against the forward pressure of Blanchfield.
- Namajonas also possesses a capable grappling game, as she defends 59% of takedown attempts and secures her own at a 53% clip. This advantage might be pivotal to exploit should Blanchfield get overly aggressive.
- Coming off of her last fight reinvigorated with a focus on poise, Namajunas’s experience may play a deciding factor. Her measured style could serve to blunt the high volume attack of Blanchfield and open up possibilities for counters.
