People giving her a big chance here. I dont see it.

I did. I thought her movement and kicks would tire out Amanda and allow her to take over late. Nunes ended up winning the kicking battle and put her away easily though. She just keeps getting better!

I'm shocked that Holm didn't go for the head kick once. Surely she had to throw a couple

I didn't see it ending like that I just thought Nunes would be able close the distance and do work. Plus the grappling I thought could be a problem for Holm.
 
I wonder if she could cut to 125? She doesn't look drained at 135. Got to 125 and fight Shevchenko (who shes already beat twice) and be a 3 division champ an the GOAT not just the female GOAT.

Salivating. Shev is a beast at 25.

Shev did well in the decision loss to Nunes.
 
I hope Santos is not just another too tentative fighter against Jones which just lets him pick them apart at range. Santos has an aggressive attacking style but Jones seems to have this ability to freeze his opponents attack. Those long limbs.
