I remember everyone being surprised to see Nunes losing on her feet that night because she's known for knocking people out on her feet, but I remember I called it, the only way for Amanda to win that fight was on the ground. GDR is no joke on the feet

 
Panic wrestling should be meet with a sub or sweep if you're getting taken down multiple times by a panic wrestler it's your fault.

Nunez is so dominant that people are grasping at vines of grappes but the wine is already singing with the cheese with a violent violin

This is MMA. Not boxing. If you want to watch boxing, go watch boxing. She was using the skills where she dominated. She is original a BJJ and Judo practitioner and expert who evolved into an incredible striker. Germaine has much longer reach and height over her, which is why she did not need to stand with her. She also made 19 times boxing champion Holly Holm look completely like a fish out of water when Amanda figured her timing out.

I am sure Khabib is a panic wrestler too because he takes his opponents down. Also, Amanda overall landed more strikes to the head than Germaine did

It wasn't as much panic wrestling as Nunes realizing GDR was better on the feet so she said to herself - "Fuck it, let's hug her to a decision". Panic wrestling was Conor against Nate, diving for the feet after being hurt against superior grappler. Nunes wasn't really hurt against GDR, she was just outclassed on the feet.

Anyhow it's Nunes who stepped up against Cyborg and smashed her. GDR was scared and ducked away, although obviously she had the technical and physical gifts to KO Cyborg as well. That's why Nunes is currently the WMMA GOAT.
 
Thanks for for the heads up on a solid smoke break

look at her face at the end of the fight and then GDRs face

someone is pointing out how she got outclassed on the feet completely and had to grapple to a decision

she is a good striker with ko power but couldnt hang with a world class striker, that's all
 
Scared to bang, resorted to leg humping for victory confirmed

The whole idea of turning into a panic wrestler is ditching your Plan A for Plan B after eating some heavy shots. That's exactly what happened.
 
Wouldn't call that 'panic wrestling' but Nunes saw openings for takedowns and took them.
