Amanda Lemos Form
Amanda Lemos is the #3 ranked women’s strawweight contender with a record of 14-3 (8 KOs, 3 Subs) and 1 Draw.
Lemos debuted in the UFC in July 2017, losing by TKO to Leslie Smith, but she quickly bounced back by reeling off five consecutive victories.
That run was brought to a shuddering halt in April 2022 when she was submitted by Jessica Andrade in the second round.
The 37-year-old Brazilian again responded swiftly to a defeat, this time tapping out Michelle Waterson in the second round.
Lemos then backed that up with another stoppage wins, this time ending her fight with Marina Rodriguez via third-round TKO.
That victory earned her a shot at the strawweight crown last August, but she came up short as she lost to Zhang Weili by unanimous decision.
The Brazilian bounced back in February though, as she claimed a unanimous decision victory over Mackenzie Dern.
Virna Jandiroba Form
Virna Jandiroba is the #5 ranked women’s strawweight contender with a record of 20-3 (1 KO, 13 Subs).
Jandiroba debuted in the UFC in April 2019 and got off to a disappointing start as she lost her debut fight with Carla Esparza via split decision.
She rebounded with submission victories over Mallory Martin and Felice Herrig, only to then suffer a points decision at the hands of Mackenzie Dern.
The 36-year-old Brazilian benefited from Kanaka Murata’s arm injury to take her next fight via TKO, but she was unable to follow that up as she then lost on points to Amanda Ribas.
Jandiroba has not lost since then however, reeling off three consecutive wins to climb into the top five.
She has beaten Angela Hill, Marina Rodriguez and Loopy Godinez by unanimous decision to climb into contention.
Verdict
Amanda Lemos biggest’ flaw is her wrestling, and that spells trouble against Virna Jandiroba.
Jandiroba can control the contest with her grappling, and if she does not find a fight-ending submission, it will be enough to get her the nod from the judges.
