Her fighting resume shows that she has 13 wins that consists of five knockouts and eight submissions. 12 of her 13 wins have resulted in a first round finish and four of her five losses have come by decision.
“Dama de Ferro” has a striking accuracy of 42 percent and a takedown accuracy of 33 percent. She lands 3.50 significant strikes a minute while taking on 2.86. This is slightly positive, but shows she has some room to be more aggressive.

Iasmin Lucindo Betting Preview
Lucindo is coming off of a unanimous decision victory against Brogan Walker back in April of this year. This got her back on track after a unanimous decision defeat in the fight prior to Yazmin Jauregui.
Her fighting resume shows that she has 14 wins that consists of eight knockouts, two submissions, and four decisions. Three of her 14 wins have resulted in a first round finish and out of five losses, she has two each by submission and decision.
She has a striking accuracy of 40 percent and a takedown accuracy of 57 percent. She lands 3.97 significant strikes a minute while taking on 3.83. This is not much room for error, which could play a role in this matchup.
Her defense against significant strikes is at 68 percent but nothing yet for a takedown defense. She also averages 2.00 takedowns per 15 minutes of fight time.
