Video Transcript
MINTY BETS: UFC Fight Night returns to the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada. I'm Minty Bets, joined by Kevin Iole to give us his best bet for the Women's Flyweight Main Event between Jéssica Andrade at -200 versus Erin Blanchfield at plus-160.
Now, Kevin, Jéssica's stepping in kind of on short notice here. So how are you seeing this fight play out?
KEVIN IOLE: I'll tell you what, Minty. This is a really interesting fight. Erin Blanchfield is a rising young prospect. She's looked really good. She dominated Molly McCann in her last outing in Madison Square Garden.
Now, she's fighting-- instead of fighting Taila Santos, who had to pull out of the fight on one week's notice, now she's going to go ahead and fight Jéssica Andrade. And Andrade, you have to have questions about. Andrade fought at UFC 283 in Brazil last month. And now, she's making this quick return.
But I have to go with the experienced fighter here in Andrade. She is, I think, the better fighter, overall. She's a former world champion, and she is really on a roll right now. If you remember her fight with Lauren Murphy in Brazil, it was a dominant performance. And I think she's had just enough rest, and she'll be ready for this fight.
So I expect to see Jéssica Andrade win this. She's gonna have some tough moments, because I like Blanchfield a lot as a fighter. But I think Andrade will go ahead and win this, so I will lay the two-to-one, and I will play Andrade.
MINTY BETS: Thank you so much, Kevin.
KEVIN IOLE: Thanks, Minty.
