For Belbita, her raw aggression can be enough to secure her a victory, provided Goldy brings her soft and shy version she brought against Granger. But ‘The Warrior Princess’ will be under far more pressure than Goldy as she has incurred one more loss than her in the octagon. This may work for Goldy to clinch a win.
Final Prediction: Hannah Goldy via unanimous decision.
