    Holly's very frustrated, charging in bravely, stupidly, grunting and pumping out punches to initiate exchanges like a madwoman. Eating kicks and right hands. ****.

    Nunes beats Cyborg calling it.

    That statement should be in reverse because Cris is seen as the better striker. She totally destroy's chicks.
    Maybe Holm is better than credited or Cris is playing weak for more fights from girls who fear her.

    That’s stupid when you’re essentially a counter puncher what’s her corner doing

    Holm is a former boxing world champion. In the striking department if nothing else, kicks notwithstanding, Cyborg is the 'underdog'.

    10-9 Cyborg

    3-1 Cyborg, 2-2 is fine.

    Her game plan is literally just two words scrawled on a dinner napkin.

    Ok Jim, Three rounds to one Chris Cyborg.
    I mean her striking is just beautiful, her movement, her jab. She has everything.
    I have Holly needing a Knockout going into this last round Jim

    2-2 isn't fine. It could be 4-0. Holm is shorting a lot of stuff and grunting, while Cyrborg is landing more of the hard looking punches in every round.

    4-0 is closer than 2-2

    On mine she just needs the 5th clear, but what she doesn't have is momentum..

    Explain how, when the 2nd was 100% clear for Holm? ...and the first was close enough to go either way, evidenced by how split people's cards were for it?
