Holly Holm needs to stop making sounds when she's attacking.

She made a lot of mistakes last night and that's one of them for sure. Making that noise when you strike only makes sense if at some point, you stop doing it and start throwing shots without it to surprise them. She did it the other way around, tried to feint and make the noise without striking, which did absolutely nothing against someone who was sitting and waiting to counter her.

Also Jackson-Wink seems to have it in her head that she has to throw high volume to win on points, so she got countered all night while throwing the same charging straight-straight-highkick combo that never landed. Holly just isn't as good when she has to be the aggressor, she was best against someone like Ronda that just kept charging at her, the last two fights she was the one chargin and getting countered all night.
 
It's part of the Tae Bo style that Holly introduced to the Octagon.

This is just amateur nonsense. Whatever that chicks name Holly was fighting would literally just sit down on her punches and wait to throw bombs every time Holly would make a sound.

It's the equivalent of shouting "HERE I COME!!!!" at the top of your lungs before you attack.
Jackson-Winklejohn are sinking ever deeper.
 
Katlyn Chookagian does that shit as well. It's like...

She should retire after this one. Don't get me wrong i really like her but surely she's done now

I agree. So should every woman in 135 and 115 to show respect for her bravery. WMMA should have a retirement event, on a Monday night on the weather channel.
 
Not just she just sounds comical.

Nobody is aftraid of a woman's Kiai.

Too bad, she should have won as bad as her offensive striking is. Tranny Cyborg 2 should have had a point taken away after punching after the bell not once but twice in back to back rounds.
 
Also fatter against Shevchenko and Tate.
In the two-three months after the rousey fight Usada tested the Shit out of her, like didn't let up on her at all. They knew what was up.

(also very possible rousey, even Dana cried to usada)

Shes not been the same since

Yep, and moreover, it's not like her attacks were not predictable enough already....the first time I saw her fight was against Ronda, and I obviously thought she'd be a great champ...but that fight actually showed more about Ronda than it showed about Holm. She looked awful against Miesha, then even worse against Shevchenko. Now this?? And how in the world does anyone get a fucking shot coming off two horrible showings (and losses)??

This division will be Cyborg's. And we nkw know how hard it will be for her...lol
 
Anyone who thinks Holm looked fat is a fucking retard.

Not a fan of her fighting but she is always shredded.

Also someone teach these virgins a math lesson. 145lbs is 10lbs heavier than 135lbs.

You'd think all of you out of work 3-D design majors would at least be able to do basic math while slurping ramen in your Mom's basement.
 
Her chin held up because she got cracked pretty good a few times.

Yeah. Hate to insinuate things but it was so strange that she suddenly had good power in the Rousey fight when she has pretty much lacked any power whatsoever in every MMA fight before and after. The combo of her having more power and Rousey recklessly running into it made that fight turn out how it did.
