Michelle Montague favored — picked against Mayra Bueno Silva lean UFC Fight Night: Sterling vs Zalal · April 19, 2026
strikinggood grapplingdecent

Picked against, with the analyst expecting the grappling to define the fight and favor the opponent there.

Clearly the sharper striker in this pairing, and a fight that stays vertical should tilt heavily her way -- she presses forward, lets combinations go, and throws punishing kicks to the legs and midsection, enough that the striking gap shouldn't be tight if it remains standing. Her grappling is solid as well, though she doesn't have dependable takedowns from open space and frequently winds up on the bottom rather than putting opponents there herself. Her submission game is genuinely dangerous, and she counters takedown attempts with a quick, hard-to-escape choke applied off the entry. She's comfortable working from her back generally. Something about her current form seems off, physically or mentally, at this stage of her career, even though the underlying skill set is clearly intact -- more an honest open question than a specific technical flaw.
