Erin Blanchfield
Stuff the entries and let the fight be a fight. 78% takedown defence, 5.24 strikes a minute against a 51% defence, and a back-take waiting every time the wrestler commits — she does not need to out-grapple Jasudavicius, only to survive the phase and punish it.
5.24 significant strikes a minute (7th of 32) and 58% defence (12th) against 3.47 and 51% (24th). Jasudavicius has no standing plan B, and every minute spent at range is a Blanchfield minute.
5th of 32 active flyweights, against a divisional average of 0.46 — and it is aimed at the exact position Jasudavicius spends her fight trying to reach.
8th in the division and the plan-denial tool. She can beat the control gameplan without ever needing to out-wrestle it for volume.
Twenty-five competitive minutes against a 74-second stoppage, against the same opponent. It is the cleanest level reading available on this card.
27 against 37, with 38.5 significant strikes in an average fourth round and 135 seconds of control in an average fifth. Jasudavicius has zero rounds past the third.
- 1Win the standing minutes early
Jab, volume, 79.2% of her first-round offence at distance. Force Jasudavicius to shoot from disadvantage rather than from a chosen moment.
- 2Defend the fence, not the mat
78% takedown defence is a denial tool. Frame, circle off the cage, and make each failed level change a scoring event of its own.
- 3Treat top control as opportunity
If she does get put down, the back is the answer, not survival. Andrade and Cortez are the script and both ended in the second round.
- 4Close inside ten minutes if the position comes
Every one of her four Octagon submissions landed in the first or second. The window is real and it is early.
- 5Take the fight past fifteen
38.5 significant strikes in an average fourth round, and an opponent with no round-four tape at all. Deep water is her asset, not her risk.
