Nora Cornolle-Joselyne Edwards Pick and Prediction
Nora Cornolle-Joselyne Edwards Odds
Nora Cornolle: Opened +105, Now -102 | Joselyne Edwards: Opened -125, Now -120
Cornolle has five knockouts among her six professional wins. Like many fighters making their debut this weekend, she has an atrocious strength of schedule on the regional scene. She comes from a Muay Thai/kickboxing background but is unproven on the mat. Even though Edwards is not known for her ground game, Cornolle will likely cede some advantages on the ground.
Edwards has a 13-4 professional record at just 27 years of age. Her wins include five knockouts and three submissions, and she has only been submitted one time in her losses. Edwards lands 5.30 significant strikes per minute while absorbing 3.48, and she also lands 0.33 takedowns per minute while defending them at 64%. Edwards typically does not look to use her grappling, but that should be an advantage. Notably, she has fought significantly tougher competition with six fights in the UFC and is 4-2 within those fights.
The short line does not make much sense, as Edwards is the younger but more experienced fighter and has more tools to win this matchup. At -120, Edwards looks like one of the sharper plays on this slate.
