Shanelle Dyer

Picks Dyer flatly, calling her 'definitely the better grappler' with no hedge on the outcome.

A solid striker who sticks a good jab through the middle, throws a heavy leg kick, and controls range well mostly through her movement. She mixes in knees and kicks up the middle to punish over-pressuring opponents and is accurate enough to pick fighters off as they come in, with decent power. Her grappling is rated only decent but is called a genuine surprise for a kickboxer: she can mix in real takedowns and has pretty good takedown defense of her own.

favorable matchup, Dyer to win

Rated the technically sharper fighter on the feet here: a stiff jab, footwork-driven distance management, strike variety through the center of the body, sharp accuracy, and pop described as above average for her weight class. Her habit of standing her ground while retreating is called out directly as a genuine liability. On the mat she is adequate, landing the odd surprise takedown while stopping takedowns herself fairly reliably.
