contents We show that for the product of two fixed point free conjugacy classes, the average number of cycles is always very similar. Specifically, our main result is that for a randomly chosen pair of fixed point free permutations of cycle types $α$ and $β$, the average number of cycles in their product is between $H_n-3$ and $H_n+1$, where $H_n$ is the harmonic number.
