Tatiana Suarez vs Virna Jandiroba prediction
UFC Vegas 124 · Sunday, November 8, 2026. Our model gives Tatiana Suarez a 61% chance to win.
Breakdown
Suarez is the more dominant grappler on paper. She lands 3.07 significant strikes a minute and absorbs just 2.01, and she shoots 4.49 takedowns per 15 minutes, holding control for 64% of her fight time. Jandiroba is a different kind of grappler: her submission attempts (1.32 per 15) are double Suarez's, and she defends takedowns better (71% to 62%). She is outstruck in volume, though, landing 2.36 and absorbing 2.89. Suarez has a small edge in height and reach, and neither has ever been knocked out or submitted in the UFC. Both made weight, with Suarez at 115.5 and Jandiroba at 116, and the fight is on as scheduled.
Our model leans Suarez at 61%, and the market is close at 65%, so there is no real disagreement. Three numbers drive the lean: her striking margin, her control time, and her higher Elo (1660 to 1607). Age and layoff are in the model, and it may underweight them. Suarez is 35.9 and Jandiroba 38.4, and both are about seven months off. Jandiroba's 39% reflects real submission danger and strong takedown defence.
Key question: can Suarez get Jandiroba down and keep her there without walking into a submission?
