UFC on FOX 20: Holly Holm vs. Valentina Shevchenko PBP (Discussion)

Ring around the the rooosy.

I'm glad Holm got on UFC 196 while she was champ. Will probably end up being her biggest career payday by far. I dunno if the Rousey rematch will ever happen now

 

[egk]

Yeah right. She should have been PISSED in this fight and she blew it.

What's so funny is Holly says in the post fight interview that they knew Shevchenko was a counter puncher and they were ready for it. Gee, you could have fooled me. Shevchenko just basically sat back and let Holly come to her the whole fight.

 

[Draper]

FUCK WMMA

 

[KhabibTheBeagle]

Pleasantly surprised by this one, partly due to the unexpected turn of events.

Glad to say I was wrong.

 

[The guest]

I love Holly but that was a 49 - 46. It really was. Rd 1 Holly. Shevchenko the rest.

 

[Factory]

So, it's over.

I enjoyed it

 

[RafaelDosSantos]

Wow this horrible card and then another terribad PPV next week.. can't wait until the real 200. August 20th T-Mobile Arena. UFC 202.

Valentina looks like she prefers the company of black gentlemen.

we in there like swimwear

 

[The Bard]

So Pena v. Ronda while Shev fights Nunez for the title.

Tate v. Holm rematch or else split 'em up and have them fight fringe top 5 girls.

 

[themainman]

Because of the upsets?

Nah I think I speak for most when saying this is boring...disagree?

 

[leto1776]

Either Pena next title shot, or Pena vs Shevchenko.

Why does Shevchenko know Spanish? That was really unexpected.

She lives in Peru now.

 

[GOAT]

V is fast but has no power. Miesha would take her down and sub her.

That's why I feel she would do better if she moved down a weight class.

 

[Sgt Smith]

Great win for Valentina, but I can't help but feel for Holly. Two great female fighters.

 

[flyingscissorsheelhook]

Poor Holly. You can tell she takes this so seriously. Pure Class in defeat though.

This is exciting, Shevchenko is legit.

 

[MayhemMonkey]

When you come from Kyrgyzstan, that's a good reason to move...anywhere.

Somebody needs to tell Holly that she's not in the Ultimate Sparring Championship. Terrible. No sense of urgency, no killer instinct, nothing. She needs to sit down and watch a Robbie Lawler fight or two.

Every time she tried to get aggressive Valentina had a counter. That wasn't going to work. Anyways, I thought Holly got a lot more aggressive in the 5th.

 

[KhabibTheBeagle]

Why does Shevchenko know Spanish? That was really unexpected.

She's got ties to Peru, I believe.

 

[KillerElite]

Unfortunately true.

She needs to put more power into those strikes. Also Holm is such a good human Being that I feel so bad for her
