She was getting out struck and resorted to grappling against Alexa

 

[Better Every Day]

I think Grasso wins.

Alexa definitely the better boxer but Shev's got the better kicking game and more intuitive counter-striking. Better finishing ability too.
Love both women. I'm torn.
Between two loves, feeling like a fool.

 

[Thawing Mammoth]

Well she landed the greatest kick in female mma

 

[Buff]

She's probably the GOAT all-rounder, but Cyborb and Nunes are better strikers.

Like Wonderboy, I can only imagine how good she’d be if she went after it. She’s very well rounded but plays it safe. I feel like more aggression wouldn’t hurt her and she’d highlight reel girls more often, especially because WMMA is weaker.

 

[cauti0n]

I still think it's Germaine de Randamie.II'm probably alone in that.

 

[Eater of Souls]

Greatest technique but when you factor in power, I have to go with Amanda.

 

[ultra321]

sounds like wonder boy has a bit of a crush...
otherwise a good breakdown.... Thanks TS

Well not sure if she's the best or not but she's definitely up there and a solid pick.

Her overhand rights are manly.

 

[ChangeIsComing]

No.

Power wise sure, but technically Val is way better.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

GDR is the best female striker in mma, imo. Shevchenko fought a lot of subpar talent at 125. It kind of skews the thing. She was getting outstruck by Grasso. Doesn’t that kind of tell people anything?

You aren’t alone. That’s my pick too.

Ah yes, beating up on Anna Elmose and Aspen Ladd is true quality, am I right? Germaine is in the top 3 or 4 strikers in WMMA, but let's not pretend she had quality competition, Holm and Pennington are the best strikers she's beaten and the former was a close decision.

Yeah, Manila I live here drank 2 too many red horses, life ragrets

And the smaller Shevchenko did better against Holm than GDR did, as well as better against Nunes. Yes, MMA math but we have two common opponents and Shevchenko did better against both of them. Shit, three and Val did better against Pena as well.
