UFC Fight Night: Where two worlds will collide

Araujo and Rosa come from different worlds, and their styles are so opposite that they are kryptonite for each other.

Araujo is great on her feet and is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt. She packs a great kick that is sure to stun any of her opponents. On the complete opposite end of the spectrum is De La Rosa. She is an out-and-out grappler and relies on her wrestling to keep her opponent down and try to take the fight with a submission move.

Araujo is faster, more skilled, and powerful on her feet. This will help her avoid those takedowns and outclass Montana De La Rosa.

Prediction: Viviane Araujo (KO, Round 1)
