Irene Aldana vs Macy Chiasson Fight Odds
Irene Aldana -180 vs Macy Chiasson
Fight is at 135 lbs and is +130 to end inside the distance.
Irene Aldana continues to make her climb to the top of the division. She got a big time fight after her starching of Ketlen Vieira back in 2019. That lead to a much higher end fight against Holly Holm. Holm had a dominant decision win in that five round main event, using figure eight movement that Aldana had a hard time figuring out. Aldana moved back in the rankings, but followed that up with another impressive first round KO of Yana Kunitskaya. She has sat out another year but the striker will bring great hands and big power to this fight as well. Her boxing and movement will be levels above that of her opponent, and Aldana will absolutely steamroll at boxing range. She has some of the most real power in the bantamweight division.

Macy Chiasson earned herself a step up in competition with a surprising win as a large underdog against Norma Dumont. Chiasson found ways to get that fight to the mat, and it seemed as if Dumont was surprised by the wrestling of Chiasson. Chiasson is a fighter that likes to keep things dirty, and push forward for clinch and grappling scenarios. I believe that will be a difficult task for her in this particular matchup. She will have difficulty finding the range of Aldana, and will continuously eat counters at the points she gets overzealous with the forward movement. When she gets too stagnant, Aldana will be opportunistic. For Chiasson to have success in this fight, she will have to initiate and hold the clinch for long periods and land takedowns. The takedowns will be quite difficult as Aldana is quite stout in that department. The stylistic matchup sets up poorly for Chiasson.
What To Bet
This matchup sets up well for Aldana, and after a year off we could even see a leveled up version that is ready to compete at the top of the division. She will be the much cleaner striker, the more powerful striker and the fighter live for a finish. A supplemental wager ITD at +250 is not something I would steer you away from, but the best bet is on Aldana flat at -180.
Betting Pick: Aldana -180
