Katlyn Chookagian

Katlyn Chookagian is one of the top flyweight fighters and has four consecutive wins on the judges’ scorecards. However, when she tried to go for the category title in 2020, she failed: she was defeated by technical KO by Kyrgyzstan’s Valentina Shevchenko.
She joined UFC in July 2016 and since then has achieved some very important accomplishments, such as owning the winning record in the flyweight category. Mind you: she has a very low percentage of fights won before the limit, as only three of the 18 victories did not go to the cards. A jiu-jisu specialist, before joining the UFC, she was a flyweight and bantamweight champion in the Cage Fury Fighting Championships franchise.
Manon Fiorot
- Odds: -225
- Record: 9-1-0
- Age: 32
- Height: 1.70 m
- Weight: 56 kg
- Reach: 165 cm
A karate black belt and jiu-jitsu specialist, Manon Fiorot is French and joined the UFC last year, when she defeated Victoria Leonardo by technical knockout in two rounds. After her debut, she accumulated three victories over Brazilian opponents, the last two by points.
Fiorot is very tough and likes hand-to-hand combat: she never backs down. An aspect that can often be a virtue, but can sometimes work against her. A plus: she has a heavy hand, as six of her eight wins were by KO.
JefeBet Prediction
Manon Fiorot has a slight edge in the head-to-head with Chookagian, and is very likely to emerge victorious in this duel to follow closely.
Prediction: Manon Fiorot wins by TKO.
