Briefing
Gregory Rodrigues is the model’s side at 66% because of striking skill (distance & pocket), with Carli Judice live if the fight is forced into volume kickboxer.
Carli Judice (volume kickboxer, southpaw kicker) against Gregory Rodrigues (power puncher, pressure boxer, opportunistic) is a UFC women's flyweight matchup in —. The independent model puts Rodrigues around 66% — a medium confidence number, not a betting line. The largest factor from 50/50 is striking skill (distance & pocket): Judice striking rating 1414 vs Rodrigues 1740. Weighted by estimated standing time (78%).
Where this is fought matters. Estimated grappling share is 22%. Judice lands 4.4 significant strikes per minute at 44% accuracy with a 1.2 takedown average; Rodrigues is at 5.2 / 51% / 1.6. Takedown defense sits at 70% versus 61%. Reach is 67" against 75" — counted only if the longer fighter actually lives at range.
Judice's primary path: Keep this at kicking range for the first 6–8 minutes. Judice's length and volume only matter if Rodrigues cannot crash the pocket. Failure mode: The chin has been a problem. One pocket exchange can end the math. Rodrigues's primary path: One clean counter or lead hook as Judice enters. Power is the shortcut; it is not a plan by itself. Failure mode: Getting drawn into Judice's preferred range and losing the minute-winning.
The swing variable is simple: First fighter to be dropped. Power is asymmetric here; the model’s decision lean dies if someone gets hurt early. The model does not start from a sportsbook. If DraftKings or Fanatics disagree, that disagreement is the point of the page.
