Following a dull <span class="caps">UFC</span> 326, the organization returns to the familiar Meta Apex for a 14-fight lineup.

With over half of the fights (8 out of 14) expected to end in finishes, fans can anticipate an evening full of excitement and action!

We kick things off with a rematch that many didn’t ask for. Piera Rodriguez (4-2 <span class="caps">UFC</span>) aims to extend her win streak to three against the on-form Sam Hughes (6-5 <span class="caps">UFC</span>). In their previous encounter in October 2022, “La Fiera” won by unanimous decision, leveraging 5 takedowns and outperforming Hughes by 14 significant strikes. Over the past three years, Rodriguez has significantly improved her wrestling and grappling skills. In her last two fights, she secured 15 takedowns and controlled her opponents for over 14 minutes in a total fight time of 30 minutes.
</p>
<p>
On the other hand, Sam Hughes has a modest 60% takedown defense and a negative takedown ratio (12 secured vs. 18 conceded), but she compensates with a solid recovery game, having only spent 11% of her fight time in the control of opponents. Hughes fights aggressively and maintains good cardio, but she struggles with physicality, takedown defense, and striking. She has a 0:1 knockdown ratio in the <span class="caps">UFC</span> and has absorbed nearly 6 strikes per minute at distance.
</p>
<p>
Without substantial improvements in her striking and takedown defense skills, Hughes may struggle against Rodriguez. The latter has shown composed striking and physical dominance in their last fight. Hughes will need to increase her pace to secure a victory, yet Rodriguez has demonstrated her ability to win even after starting strong.
</p>
<p>
<em>Prediction:</em> <strong>Piera Rodriguez defeats Sam Hughes via <span class="caps">TKO</span>/DEC</strong>
