42-year-old Marion Reneau has been struggling, losing two UFC fights in a row to Yana Kunitskaya and Cat Zingano, both going 3 rounds. She also has a losing mark over her last eight bouts (four losses, one draw). Reneau has a defensive-style and solid stamina, with eight of her last nine fights going the distance. She faces a bigger, better, and much younger (31) fighter in Raquel Pennington. Pennington has struggled at times when stepping up to face the best, losing a championship bout to Amanda Nunes four fights ago, losing via decision to former champ Germaine de Randamie three bouts ago, along with another decision defeat to former champion Holly Holm in her last fight. Two bouts ago, she bested rising contender Irene Aldana in a split decision, but she finally steps down in competition and will add to her winning overall UFC record. Pennington also has ample stamina with eight of her last nine fights going the distance, so back the better fighter in a drawn-out battle. Take Raquel Pennington and OVER the total.
