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

[Scyther]

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

Yep, the new UFC brass was hoping Holly would win and become the new Ronda because Holly gained fans off beating Ronda and has a certain appeal. The only problem is she is terrible and a point decision fighter. Holly can't even smash the cans she fights.

"She's the Monica Seles of WMMA"

I shout "HERE I COME!!!" every time I open the Sherdog forums

It's terrible though and telegraphs her same predictable combination

Except Seles was a great tennis player who would have been even better if not for being stabbed in the back while on the court one afternoon by some nutcase

 

[Fight Professor]

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.

Ronda running into punches amplified the power. Ironically Ronda has good power and she even wobbled Holly but no head movement or defense.

 

[98bird]

but..but...joe rogan said she has world class striking??

She is an excellent striker, just BORING AS FUCK....she plays it safe and just do the same shit, over and over. She rarely commits to a brawl, if almost ever.

 

[crocopteam]

It's like she was fighting at a new heavier weight? Shit was crazy bro.

This deserves more than just a like!

 

[Lowercase p]

She did it the whole time in the Valentina fight too. I'm glad I'm not the only one annoyed by it. I also compared it to Sharapova.

I guess I"m so used to people making sounds when striking, that I really dont even hear it till someone points it out. Just seems normal to me.

NO ONE in the ufc makes those sounds like she does. NO ONE. How her sounds seem normal to you is beyond my comprehension.

 

[Sirwastealot]

This was not a high class striking match from either fighter. I guess ronda made Holly look better than she is.

But Holly makes sounds sometimes even when she isn't throwing. I don't know if that's on purpose.

I've seen her fight plenty and it's gotten to the point where I don't notice it either.
You're just thinking about it too much, I suppose.

That's her way of feinting.

Lol, I'm not thinking about it too much, it stands out immensely. There have always been threads about it too so...

So?

I've been hearing it at the gym since I was 6?

 

[Mr.Maelstrom]

Its a way to sway the judges into thinking you're doing more than you are. Noobs

 

[ChopToTheButt]

Katlyn Chookagian does that shit as well. It's like...

Dude. She's the first that came to mind for me. She's awful to watch because of it. I have to mute that shit.

 

[Paladin]

She also should stop throwing a same combination over and OVER again.

Over drilled the same combo in my opinion.

She has a lot of tools but for some reason she forget she it and spams the same combo after the hissing sounds

 

[Uber_Noober]

It was pretty annoying, I much prefer watching Sharapova make her noises.
