To fully develop our Amanda Lemos vs Gillian Robertson prediction, we’ve analysed the UFC records of both fighters. This will help us determine the likely outcome of this upcoming bout.

Amanda Lemos heads into this one with a record of 15-5-1. Her 15 wins consist of eight By Knockout, three By Submission and four by Decision. Lemos’ five losses are made up of 1 By Knockout, two By Submission and two By Decision.

As her stats suggest, Amanda Lemos is incredibly dangerous when she’s allowed the opportunity to launch attacks. Her strike rate is amongst the best in the Division, and this is where she could find some joy against Gillian Robertson.

However, it’s easy to see why Robertson heads into this one as the clear favourite to win. Robertson has a record of 16-8-0. Of her 16 wins, nine have come By Submission, with three By Knockout and four By Decision. Of her eight losses, six have come By Decision. If Lemos can withstand Robertson’s ground game, this will be the Brazilian’s best chance of success in this bout.

It’s a big ask, though, and with Gillian Robertson’s ability on the ground, coupled with the difficulty Amanda Lemos has with defending against good grapplers, we think Lemos will be in for a tough time.

What is the latest news?

Another key aspect we’ve examined developing our Amanda Lemos vs Gillian Robertson prediction is recent form. While Robertson is in good form, currently enjoying a four-fight winning streak, Lemos lost her last fight and will be keen to get back to winning ways as quickly as possible.

Amanda Lemos – Can Lemos use her Strike Rate to her advantage?

• Nationality: Brazilian 🇧🇷
• Record –  15-5-1
• Age:  38
• Height: 5ft 4in
• Reach: 65in

While Amanda Lemos head into this bout as the Underdog, the Brazilian is amongst the best strikers in the Strawweight Division. Lemos’ accuracy is impressive, standing at around 55%, landing on average just shy of 3 strikes per minute. It’s Lemos’ defensive skills, or lack thereof, which has led betting sites to make her opponent the favourite. Lemos has always struggled with defending against the grapple, and in this bout she’s up against one of the best.

Lemos’s last bout ended in defeat. Up against Tatiana Suarez, the latter won By Decision after three rounds.

To stand a chance in this one, Lemos will have to start quickly, launching jab and kick attacks without letting her opponent recover. We’ll take this into consideration as we build our Amanda Lemos vs Gillian Robertson prediction.

Gillian Robertson – Grappling skills will be key

• Nationality: Canadian 🇨🇦
• Record –  16-8-0
• Age: 30
• Height: 5ft 5in
• Reach: 63in

The Savage has proven time and again her grappling and takedown skills. While Robertson is up against a fighter who possesses the ability to launch strike after strike, as well as powerful leg kicks, if Robertson can defend against these attacks she’s sure to have plenty of opportunities to take down Lemos.

Robertson is currently on a four-fight winning streak, with her most recent win coming in May 2025 with a TKO victory against Marina Rodriguez.

Prediction for Amanda Lemos vs Gillian Robertson

We should be in for an exciting fight, but one we think The Savage will win reasonably comfortably. Of course, Lemos has great striking ability, along with the ability to land powerful kicks. This is shown in Lemos’ record of eight knockouts in her 15 wins – over half of the fights Lemos has won have come by way of knockout. However, she’s always struggled against grappling and in this bout, she’s up against the master Robertson. Out of Gillian Robertson’s 16 MMA wins, nine have come By Submission, and for us this is the most likely outcome. So, our Amanda Lemos vs Gillian Robertson prediction is Robertson to win By Submission.
