    Mike Perry sounds like a complete tool. LOL

    Entire video seems like a bunch of American fighters homering for an American although I am starting to think Holm could hang in there and possibly last the distance.

    Cant pick a winner, but Holly Holm has a bang on ass and legs. I rate her quite highly actually !

    I'm so glad he lost last night, that's twice the wheels have come off the wagon since he's entered the UFC. Both times I saw it coming from a mile away. The guy has power, decent chin and a heart but ZERO fight IQ and will lose to anyone good 9/10 times provided they stick to a gameplan.

    Man, I don't see any woman @ that weight lasting against CC. (She'd prolly whip alot of men)

    She's an amighty terror, in the cage. Intensity like Tyson

    Considering the image he chooses to present to the public it does not suprise me one bit that he would have a low fight I.Q. as well.

    Guys, don't hate on Perry. He wasn't as comfortable in front of the camera as the others were, aside from maybe Esquibel. She looked caught off guard. He looked like he was trying really...really hard not to say the wrong thing. Perry was like a less intelligent Jon Jones, back when Jones was super fake and trying hard not to say the wrong thing.

    I don't know if it was a height thing, but Rousey looked particularly smaller vs Holm and Nunes. I mean in regards to Holm's, and Nunes', size in general. Not that Rousey was getting smaller. Anyway...These ladies are starting to look like they're a division above Rousey, size wise. I'm curious to see what the size difference is between Holm and Cyborg.

    Gina Carano was done once the fight hit the ground, but she held her own while it was standing. Holm has a chance to play matador and assissin. She also has the chance to get tenderized.

    Rousey was a lot shorter than Holm and Nunes. Holly and Amanda are legitimately 5'7". Rousey is 5'4", since Misha admitted her real height was 5'5". Cyborg is the same size as Holly and Nunes.

    Cyborg towering over Misha

    That said I have a hard time seeing Holly winning this fight. Cyborg is way more versatile than Rousey and Holly despite her boxing pedigree can be very predictable at times.

    Shevchenko completly figured Holm out and was countering her at will.

    Randamie was landing right hand counters on Holly at will.

    CC stoppage (most refs are quicker to stop a fight when a woman's getting pounded)

    Holly needs to fight a perfect fight: move, counter and stay off the fence/mat

    CC is too strong, got more tools
