I've been watching Van Soest for a few years, glad she made the transition from Muay Thai.

Exciting debutante in Tiffany Van Soest

Schwartz looks good for a KOTC ammy, but don't be surprised when Van Soest outgrapples her to prove a point. 

If Schwartz makes it out of the first round look for cardio to be an issue, unless she's really worked on it since last year

Schwartz is a "wildly punch myself into the clinch/takedown" kinda gal. Agressive, tough, strong, not a lot of skill behind it and as mmacylon said, a very taxing style.

Hopefully Van Soest has her way with her in the clinch and doesn't get pushed into the fence for too long since that's what Schwartz is going for right from the bell.

Prediction: wrong van Soest   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

This isn't Van Soest's MMA debut btw. She has a pro loss to Jin Tang years ago and has an amateur win. Would be nice if her record was updated (even Sherdog has both fights listed).

@Live2wrestle Cool! Thanks for the update.

Interesting to learn that this is not Tiffany's debut.  I guess one does miss out on info occasionally by dropping sherdog from the research rotation

Oh, the pain

someday I will learn to never gamble on kickboxers transitioning to MMA

Holliday came out with a new last name and a completely transformed physique from her last outing.  Van Soest came out retreating but not circling and allowed Holliday to keep the fight where she wanted with little effort.
