Iasmin Lucindo and Nicolle Caliari have both found the same nasty way to end a fight: an arm triangle from side control. Lucindo caught Polyana Viana with it, and Caliari used it against Shauna Bannon. That shared threat gives UFC 333 a fun question: what happens when neither woman can treat a bad position as somewhere safe to rest? Lucindo comes back off a unanimous decision over Angela Hill, having lost a unanimous decision to Amanda Lemos before that.
- Lucindo returns after a long gap following her Angela Hill win
- Caliari brings a submission rebound after her painful loss to Judice
- Matching arm triangle wins meet a very different battle for range
The fight is most likely to break open in round 2, when repeated efforts to close the distance can turn orderly exchanges into messy clinches and scrambles.
The long gap since that Hill fight puts her return under the spotlight, while Caliari arrives with the Bannon submission behind her. That was a big response after Carli Judice stopped her with a knee to the body in round 3. Here's the thing: Lucindo has 66 inches of reach to Caliari's 62, and both fight orthodox. Lucindo needs to make that extra space matter with straight shots and clean exits; Caliari needs to get closer without walking through unanswered punches.
If they tie up or hit the mat, the important battle is for position before the squeeze, because both have already turned side control into trouble. Both women are currently unranked, and another win would give either one something solid to build on. The question is whether Lucindo can find her rhythm after the break while Caliari tries to carry the momentum from Bannon into a different range problem.
