Cyborg's Technical Pressure.

I've been noticing the same trend with her. She has deliberately been working on her skills in the cage instead of going ballistic (as per Parillo's instructions) even if she could have just have slugged her way to victory. She preparing for a higher caliber of fighter.

I honestely think she'll outbox Holm and put the pressure on her. Holm has good footwork when she wants to and she's dangerous with the traps she sets, so she might catch her with a kick or a few right hands coming in, but we'll see.
 
I see her rushing in, clinching and simply out-muscling Holly against the cage or on the ground. Holly doesn't have the power in her hands to stop her and I don't see her landing a headkick at range because I doubt Cyborg has any intentions of letting her keeep her distance.
 
If Holly can land some good face shots early, I could see Cydude see red and go bezerker mode.
 
It's easy to look good good against slow as molasses punching bags like Evinger. Cyborg is fast and has crazy power for a woman, which might be enough against Holly, but I doubt that she will have an easy time of it.
 
Hoping Holly can use her footwork and keep the distance but I could see most of the fight being spent on the cage and in the clinch with Cyborg muscling her around. Hope not.
 
Sounds like a Brazilian made this video ha!

Cyborgs best bet is to make it a slugfest if she gets into a technical fight with Holly, she will lose
 
Holly isn't someone Cyborg can just run out and blast away like most of her opponents. Her footwork and range is exceptional and that counter left straight is on point. Holly isn't a huge puncher like Cyborg but if you walk into one of those counters like Ronda did you can get hurt. And of course Holly's kicks are fast and dangerous.

People have been talking like Cyborg is going to maul Holly and I just don't see it. She might win, she may even get a stoppage, but she's going to have to put in the work. Holly isn't there to be hit and if she's swinging those haymakers and hitting air, she's going to wear down just like anyone else.
 
Hopefully Greg Jackson and Wink break the cold streak and pull of this big one.
 
She was definitely more patient in her last fight...

This fight is definitely going some rounds, if not the distance...mainly cause holly is going to move and move alot...cyborg will be constantly going forward...the thing with cyborg is she has good defense...and isn't easy to hit...she bobs and weaves coming forward and hardly ever gets hit in fights..while she hits like a truck..has many weapons, both in kicks, punches and knees...while holly is pretty much just a counter puncher...she will try and counter cyborg, but she will get hit more, the more she stays there and tries to counter...I see her moving a ton, while throwing 1 punch at a time, then moving...while cyborg will be throwing combos...I see this as an easy win for cyborg...but probably going the distance...unless cyborg decides to take holly down..then it might end before.
 
good video, don't care much for the background music, but good analysis.
