Keep digging.
True, however, I'm not sure it's fair to discount the Valentina win for Nunes so easily. Shev (in my opinion) is a more technical fighter than Holly in every aspect and Amanda proved she can shut down most of the game of a counter fighter over 5 rounds.
I do. In multiple interviews leading up to the...2nd valentina fight I think or maybe the Pennington fight idk, Amanda had been stating she was getting surgery to fix her chronic sinusitis. That's why you often saw her going into the cage with a breathe strip on her nose. It's hard as fuck to breathe with sinusitis, hard to sleep, hard to get oxygen to your muscles. She was a tremendous hammer against Rocky in that fight and hardly looked tired laying a beating down for 4 something rounds. I think her conditioning has massively improved.
As for the weight cut, you know Holly's last fight was 145 as well right? I think Holly is quite a bit leaner than Amanda as well so they will probably be on equal terms as far as weight cutting goes accounting for Holly's age too. She's 37 and taken a fair amount of damage for a female fighter. Rocked a few times in her last 5 fights (GDR and Anderson I believe) brutally ko'd in boxing, etc.
