Key Stats: 4.9 significant strikes landed per minute, 57% striking accuracy, 1.92 significant strikes absorbed per minute

What It Means: Antonina Shevchenko, similarly to Chookagian, likes to use her long-range striking to keep opponents at a distance advantageous to her arsenal. She keeps fights to her pace and likes to dictate when and how striking exchanges begin and end.

What to Look for in the Fight: This is a good test between two rangy strikers who look for similar opportunities in their own distinct ways. Chookagian, however, is the more experienced mixed martial artist of the two and has been successful with her kickboxing against higher-level competition. She also holds a brown belt in jiu-jitsu under Renzo Gracie, so she could use the matchup to showcase her skills on the ground.

*Does not have enough UFC appearances in their division to qualify in the Record Book
