Any Other Result

 

Current odds:

Valentina Shevchenko: Wins By Decision: (+125)

Valentina Shevchenko: Wins By KO/TKO: (-138)

Jessica Eye: (+800)

 

• Eye seems constantly at odds between feeling like she should counter-strike and that she has to lead to win. It often leads to awkward periods of hesitancy, marked by wild blitzing combos.

• It’s the second part that’s especially worrying, since Shevchenko is a pure counter striker, and has only become more comfortable letting her hands go at 125.

• As we’ve also seen, if Eye can crash the pocket to the clinch, Shevchenko is great at using power and deft technique to throw opponents off balance and hit takedowns. There’s just no clear path for Eye to win given her game, unless he catches Shevchenko with something totally wild.
