Chelsea Chandler

Same weight class, women's side.

Melissa Croden taking on Chelsea Chandler.

Um, age is wrong here.

Chelsea Chandler at eight...

No, she is 35.

I'm sorry.

[laughs]

We got Melissa Croden as a -295 favorite here, Matty.

Give it to Canada.

After that, women's bantamweights, Melissa Crodin and Chelsea Chandler.

Are these women ranked? Let me double check.

Melissa Crodin coming in at number 14 in the ranking.

She's the minus 210 favorite at 35 years of age.

Chelsea Chandler at plus 175.

She's also 35, but she is a underdog.

One inch in height and .5 in reach for Melissa Crodin.

Melissa Croden, she's from Canada, a friend of Gumby's other podcast.

Chelsea Chandler.

I think they're both friends of your other podcast, are they not?

Yeah, they both been on.

I- i- that doesn't feel like a good play to me.

Right.

Um, but I am picking her here, and the big reason just being, like you said, the, the bullying of Chelsea Chandler needing to be the stronger, more physical of the opponents.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm taking him as well.

Just to... double up what you were saying uh obviously the experience level is is in you's favor as is the grappling um concerned about as i said kovacic's um level of experience and the fact that he's been on the shelf for quite a while here he does hit very hard though he does have that one hitter uh quitter type of power but um you it's gonna be set in prestice in his uh in his last fight and um i i like what i've seen from you so there you go um we will go with him as a dog here all right hopefully he doesn't doesn't do it again here we'll see though we got another uh banner wait but we're going to the female side most of croton she's from canada a friend of gumby's other podcast chelsea chandler i think they're both friends of your other podcasts yeah they've both been on yeah yep top turtle alum i'll tell you about chandler first seven and four two knockouts two submissions she's been knocked out once three and three in the ufc she's won one of three two of five submission win in her last bout though uh she's missed weight three times at 135 so keep an eye on the scales if you're gonna bet her in this fight uh she used to fight up at 145. she went four on one in evicta she's been outstruck in the ufc by 0.75 strikes per minute plus 245 scarecrowden eight and three knockouts one submission never been finished in a fight two and one in the ufc she's won four or five including her last bout regional champion an inch taller than chandler better striking more active line strikes than chandler better grappling stats and chandler she's outstruck her points by 2.14 strikes per minute minus 245. there's no juice on any of these odds that we're getting which is nice i'm going with the canadian croton i think she's better everywhere uh she won't run headfirst into the cage

yo somebody

actually I think

Right.

But I am picking her here.

And the big reason just being, like you said, the bullying of Chelsea Chandler needing to be the stronger more physical the opponents and like she got taken down by jocelyn edwards very easily she got taken down by did priscilla catch away i think priscilla catch away and i took her down um i don't even i don't even think catch away it is a particularly good wrestler but if i'm remembering correctly she got her down i think we're talking like 25 percent take that you're right yeah 25 one for

one one for one catch where i

It'll be that type of situation.

Or Croden versus Chelsea Chandler.

It's like there will be Some Albertan commission, uh, judge that gets th- that, those first four or five fights on, like, the early prelims, that's where the local guys get a shot.

You know what I mean? But once you get into the top here, it's just like, it's very rare that you have, um, you know, people outside of the regular people that we're used to, who also screw up scoring, um, all the time on us.

Be real with yourself.

I don't know.

I took Chelsea Chandler against Cab.

[laughs] Fair game.

And then from there, it's just a quick work for Pio Caurso to get a submission.

Next fight up is Melissa Gredon versus Chelsea Chandler.

Who you got?

I have Melissa "Scarecrow" Gredon on this one.

She can definitely get the KO.

I, I mean, I have Melissa Gredon in this fight.

I did have Chelsea Chandler in the last one by submission, and she got that.

But that was against Priscila, and I think that Priscila is just not that good of a fighter.
