Fight Overview

This all-Contender Series flyweight clash pits undefeated Brazilian prospect Jeisla 'A Braba' Chaves (Season 9) against Venezuelan knockout artist Yuneisy Duben (Season 8), who is looking to rebound after a brutal TKO loss to Carli Judice in her UFC debut. Both women earned their roster spots through aggressive striking, setting the stage for a high-paced prelim battle with early UFC positioning firmly on the line.

Keys to Victory

Jeisla Santos Chaves

  1. Chaves must impose pressure and use her undefeated momentum to control distance and pace throughout all three rounds.
  2. She needs to avoid trading power shots at close range and work behind a disciplined jab to set up combination attacks.
  3. Chaves should look to mix in takedowns to neutralize Duben's striking output and disrupt her rhythm.

Yuneisy Duben

  1. Duben must use her high striking volume early to set the tempo before Chaves can settle into her own rhythm.
  2. She needs to stay composed and avoid the aggressive exchanges that led to her quick stoppage defeat in her UFC debut.
  3. Duben should target the body consistently to drain Chaves's gas tank and open up the head for finishing opportunities late.
