The first set of female athletes to compete this season do so in the flyweight division, as British standout Shanelle Dyer and Brazilian Caroline Foro go head-to-head on Tuesday night.
Unbeaten in six starts to begin her pro career and sporting a -2 Since Score, the 24-year-old Dyer has been garnering attention from the outset thanks to some impressive finishes through these early days. The GB Top Team representative made 11 amateur appearances, posting an 8-3 mark, with two of those losses coming to UFC competitor Shauna Bannon and Ivana Petrovic.
Foro is a 28-year-old with an 8-1 record, a six-fight winning streak, six consecutive first-round finishes, and a -3 Since Score. She dropped a split decision to the best opponent she’s faced to date, unbeaten compatriot Beatriz Consuli, and will look to prove herself here in this clash with the highly regarded British hopeful.
