I agree that buying into prospect hype is a mistake, especially on a young unproven fighter. But I think that is more relevant in male fighters. Not trying to be sexist, but the lack of power and sometimes downright lack of skill in women's mma makes it easier to bet on an inexperienced fighter. There usually isn't as high of a chance of a better fighter getting caught and ko'd like there is with male fighters. I think the talent pool for female fighters is so small that there is still a huge disparity in talent between top female fighters and mid/low level fighters. I see this as one of those scenarios.
And the other option is I'm f*cking way off on this and will come back with my tail between my legs wishing I had listened to you!!
