Buena Silva has decent thai boxing. Her kicks are solid. Holy’s lost a lot of hand speed and she mostly relies on cage stalling and karate kicks.
Silva isn’t that far different in skills to Ketlen.
Holly has made herself into a pretty decent wrestler though. She's old, but seems to have that "old woman" strength LOL. She's hit a lot of TD's and had a lot of control against what I'd deem at least similar grapplers (in terms of TDD anyway) to MBS. And MBS has been taken down in almost all her fights. She's hit subs off her back in a few too, so that's a threat obviously but I don't think I'd want to back her with the thinking being she'll catch a kneebar or something if Holly takes her down.
IDK, the right play is probably just o4.5 or goes distance. Not crazy juice, and it covers both a tactical standup fight like Holly/Viera or a fight where Holly lays on top of MBS for long stretches. Holly doesn't even seem to look to finish anymore, and MBS sub seems relatively unlikely.
