Maverick has quickly established herself with impressive performances inside the octagon and stands out with her well-rounded martial artist approach that incorporates striking and grappling. Maverick’s average fight times average 12 minutes 28 seconds to showcase her endurance and composure under pressure.
Maverick’s offensive game is precise and well-considered; she typically scores an average of 3.82 significant strikes per minute with an accuracy rate of 45% – an indicator that she has volume and precision in her strikes, making her an extremely dangerous striker. Maverick is equally impressive defensively, with a 59% striking defense rate; her head movement, footwork, and counterpunching skills enable her to effectively avoid incoming shots making it hard for opponents to find clean shots against her.
In her recent fight against Jasudavicius, Maverick showcased her resilience and adaptability despite setbacks, proving she can bounce back stronger and wiser. Her ability to control the fight through takedowns, with a 54% accuracy, adds another dimension to her game.
Priscila “Zombie Girl” Cachoeira brings her aggression and tenacity to the octagon. With a professional record of 12-4-0, Cachoeira has shown she can finish fights spectacularly, earning her a reputation as an effective striker. An average fight time of 8 minutes and 53 seconds suggests she prefers fast-paced bouts where her aggressive style will overwhelm opponents quickly.
Cachoeira’s offensive striking output is truly impressive, landing an average of 4.68 significant strikes per minute on offense. Her relentless forward pressure and ability to throw combinations allow her to land significant strikes at an impressive rate; however, her striking accuracy of 43% might raise some concerns; as her high volume of striking could leave her vulnerable against counters; also, she absorbs an alarming rate of 7.85 significant strikes per minute suggesting some weakness in her defense capabilities.
Cachoeira secured a victory in her most recent bout against Lipski, displaying her relentless fighting spirit and knockout power. While her takedown defense stands strong at 65%, she might face challenges against a skilled grappler like Maverick, who possesses a higher takedown average.
