Hardly any UFC fight would be a true UFC fight if it did not have a woman’s battle in the middle of it. The prelim battle here is going to come in the form of a couple of female fighters who have been fighting near the five hundred mark in their careers.

However, one thing that a lot of people do not really know about is the fact that Eubanks is a striker when it comes to fighting style.

Those losses did drop Eubanks to a 5-4 record and when it comes to the KO/TKO record Eubanks is 2-0, but has not had any submission type of decisions.
Moras is coming into the battle here battered and bruised from her career so far. Moras has the orthodox style of stance, but when it comes to hitting Moras has ended up being a striker for the fighting style that she uses. Sarah Moras last bout was a KO/TKO win over Liana Jojua in the third round of their bout. The win allowed Moras to improve to 6-6 in her career, but with the TKO/KO fights she is sitting at 3-1, but when it comes to the submission style fighting she is 2-1.

Sijara Eubanks vs Sarah Moras Prediction – Sijara Eubanks
While Moras does have the height advantage, she does not get the advantage of having a longer reach. Instead, Moras with her taller height will actually make herself more of a target. That will actually make it harder for Moras to protect herself in the fight, but with Eubanks being shorter she will have less to target and that allows her to get better protection and land more blows. Look for Eubanks to land more of those blows and bring home the win.
