UFC Sacramento: Carli Judice vs. Jeisla Chaves: Prediction
The speed and accuracy of Judice are the reasons why I pick her to secure the decision win. Judice is a very technical fighter who snipes her opponents with quick strikes and sharp counters. She reads their tendencies using feints.
Although Chaves is still undefeated in her career, she has been tagged several times in her fights. Her lack of head movement has allowed her opponents to counter her. If she remains the same fighter heading into the match, she’ll be on the receiving end of a clinical striking from Judice.
Furthermore, Judice will have the option to take the fight to the ground if she wants to fully nullify Chaves’ striking and power. This way, she can fire ground-and-pound strikes while draining a significant amount of energy out of Chaves.

Judice was signed by the UFC in 2023 despite losing her Dana White’s Contender Series fight with Ernesta Kareckaite. Since then, she recorded three wins (Yuneisy Duben, Nicolle Caliari, and Juliana Miller) and one defeat (Gabriella Fernandes).
