Pre-fight analysis — how we saw it going in
Case for Dyer
Dyer lands 7.71 significant strikes per minute to Reed's 3.41 and has stopped five of her seven opponents. With 100% takedown defence facing a woman who shoots 0.46 times per 15 minutes, her route is simply to keep the fight where it already is.
Case for Reed
Reed has gone to the judges in six of her eight wins and finishes only 25% of the time, so her route runs through the scorecards. She needs Dyer working at a pace Dyer has not yet had to sustain.
What We Were Watching For
- Dyer more than doubles Reed's output — 7.71 against 3.41 significant strikes landed per minute.
- Dyer also absorbs 6.72 per minute, the highest figure on the card, so that volume is not free.
- Takedowns barely feature: Reed averages 0.46 per 15 minutes into Dyer's 100% takedown defence.
- Reed is 2-3 in her last five to Dyer's 4-1, on near-identical average fight times (10:50 against 10:39).

| Sees Dyer walking Reed down, blasting leg kicks, attacking the body and bringing combinations around the guard until Reed melts along the fence and the referee steps in. Rates Reed as technical but not dangerous enough to trouble Dyer, and says Dyer's ground game concerns are overstated -- she could equally outstrike Reed comfortably over fifteen minutes. “Give me Chanel Dyer by round two knockout.” Track record: winner called in 77 of 116 resolved picks.

| Calls it a bad stylistic match-up for Reed rather than a knock on her: Dyer is bigger, more powerful, the better striker, and good enough defensively to stop Reed turning it into a wrestling match.
