Irene Aldana

Aldana (13-6) will bring her excellent takedown defense in the fight against Chiasson as she hopes to get a title shot in the future. However, she may have ring rust going into the match against Chiasson as she has not fought since winning via technical knockout over Yana Kunitskaya in July 2021. The Mexican fighter will have her hands full against Chiasson, who is capable of standing and banging in the striking game and has a decent ground game as well. Aldana is also a known puncher with seven of her 13 wins ending via knockout. The 34-year-old Culiacan native should utilize her striking and takedown defense to beat Chiasson and rise to the bantamweight class.

Macy Chiasson

Chiasson (8-2) debuted in the UFC in November 2018 when she took home The Ultimate Fighter 28 Women’s Featherweight Tournament title. She has won five of her last seven bouts since then and she is moving up the 135-pound rankings. In her last bout, Chiasson fought Norma Dumont and won via split decision. The American aims to prolong her young UFC career and a win against Aldana would bring her to higher-tiered matchups against top foes in the division. However, Chiasson needs to break the Mexican’s world-class defense and striking game to stand a good chance of winning the match.

Aldana vs. Chiasson Summary

The fighters will aim to swing through the fences to make it a good fight card despite the shenanigans in the other matches on the card. Aldana looks to bring her experience to topple Chiasson while the American up-and-comer wants to continue her rise in the division by winning over a tough opponent like Aldana. UFC fight odds favor the veteran Aldana in the match due to her experience and high knockout ratio. But don’t sleep on Chiasson as she is capable of defeating anyone that wants to fight her.
