Weili Zhang Analysis: She’s incredible at grappling
Known as “Magnum,” Zhang Weili has a record of 24 victories, 3 defeats, and no draws (slash). Weili has one of the best striking rates in the division, averaging 5.94 accurate strikes per minute with a 51% accuracy rate. She can also wrestle at a respectable level; per fifteen minutes, she manages to score 2.29 takedowns. The athlete’s remarkable hitting accuracy and her grappling prowess are perfectly blended, as seen by the recent bout between Weili and Lemos. Her play is unexpected due to her opposing foot stance, which poses a serious challenge to any opponent. Given her expertise playing big stakes matches and her ability to strike a balance between defense and offense, Weili is probably going to give her best performance in the forthcoming match.
Yan Xiaonan Analysis: Very strong at takedowns
With an impressive 18-3-0 (1 NC) record going into the octagon, Yan Xiaonan is a fighter not to be taken lightly. Compared to Zhang Weili, she lands 5.55 major strikes per minute, but her accuracy is only 44%. However, her exceptional defense (61%), which demonstrates her ability to avoid taking any damage from opponent blows, is what really sticks out. Xiaonan’s 0.86 takedowns every fifteen minutes may not seem like much, but her 70% takedown defense score for evasion is noteworthy. She may be using her quite severe tactics to progressively wear out opponents, as evidenced by the fact that she spends longer time in the ring than her opponents do on average.
