Friday night time on stay ESPN+ the principle occasion between Sandy Ryan and Mikaela Mayer is a primary instance of the leaps and bounds headlining the Hulu Theater at Madison Sq. Backyard in New York Metropolis. Matching the rise in reputation, the talent stage in lots of of those huge girl’s matchups has quickly superior as properly.
Of late Mayer has come up on brief facet of shut choices in her greatest fights. Whether or not you imagine she deserved to get her hand raised towards Alycia Baumgarnder and Natasha Jonas is a unique story. In each bouts Mayer acquired off to semi-slow begins solely to come back on robust because the combat wore on. Jonas counter punched Mayer within the early goings and completed pretty robust.
Alyicia was main their combat till her output decreased showing to be fatigued down the stretch. Versus Sandy Ryan, Mayer will must be extra environment friendly behind a jab when she applies strain. At instances Mayer has been capable of bully fighters with aggression. Now in her second combat on the larger weight she should be extra strategic leaning into her expertise. Outpointing slightly than bull rush is the trail to victory or no less than a wiser option to start this combat.
Mayer ought to enable Sandy Ryan to be aggressor or no less than stand her floor and look counter punch utilizing lateral motion. Ryan got here on robust and dispatched Terri Harper early this yr. Sandy had a brand new workforce backing her nevertheless it did take her a bit of bit to settle in. Previous to that bout Ryan had a split-draw towards Jessica McCaskill. Many within the boxing world thought Sandy had executed sufficient to get her hand raised.
This boxing podcaster believes an all-around efficiency by Mikaela will get her over the hump in what needs to be a extremely aggressive primary occasion. Mayer can use Ryan’s over-aggression and at instances wild swinging combos to her benefit. That mentioned Mayer tends to interact in a brawl and typically boxers don’t break habits. The followers will win on this intriguing matchup of excessive stage boxers.
My Official Prediction is Mikaela Mayer by Break up-Determination.
