Talking the Holly Holm Vs. Valentina card here. What are you looking forward to the most? The Least? Is this card a sleeper for you?

Personally, I think the 2 fights of the night will be the two before the main. A pretty good show, we have Oliveira who is coming off of a loss against Cerrone. I'd like to see him get a sub against Moontasri. And of course, Barboza Vs. Melendez. Hoping Barboza can put on a show here and get a finish. Unlikely he gets a decision in his favor.

looking forward to see edson barboza throwing some spinning shit and uncle creepy the other shit
 
I realy like Valentina but she is too small for bantamweight but she could be a 125 champ
Holm by UD
 
I can't wait to see Gilbert v Edson that's a great match up and I'm not sure who wins. I think other than that the card is looking pretty weak but yesterdays card was also weak looking and it was a helluva card to watch.

Not bad idea tho . So half good on you TS.

I can't see Gilbert beating Edson than anything other than a decision, which if he gets him that far it would have to be a Unanimous. Maybe I'll eat my words tho.
 
Looking forward to the girls' stand up fight, Shevchenko by KO

If it was jut Gilbert v Edson I would actually favor Gilbert but it's Gilbert coming off a year suspension. I think Gilbert will try to get inside and use his striking and wrestling from there but getting inside on Edson is dangerous because while closing that distance you may lose your consciousness. Gil's last fight was a very close decision to the champ. Like I said I have no idea on this one but it's not like Gil can't stop him with ground and pound or decision him by bullying him.
 
ignore my previous comment, wrong valentina i was thinking about.

schevchenko is smaller than holly. i see holly winning this. valentina has better elbows and short elbows though. if they get stuck in the clinch a lot it will be can holly use knees vs will valentina make smart use of the elbows because i don't see this going to the ground, though that could be an interesting strategy like tecia torres did to angela hill. nobody would see it coming.

Personally I will be watching this fight alone and pantsless.
 
The main event is what I want to see the most. Last fight was Holly's first loss. I always want to see how a fighter like that bounces back from that first loss.

I think she bounces back in a dominating fashion. I expect to see her do a little more attacking as opposed to just countering. She needs to be able to do more than just counter. The loss to Miesha showed that.

Not getting a rematch has got to be burning a hole in her stomach. She's never going to want to lose again.
