That's how you overcome a real size advantage

War Valentina!

It also helps when you opponent comes up short on everything she throws.

I didn't expect Valentina to put a striking clinic on Holly. Impressive performance.

Valentina vs. Miesha next please.

 

[maxi diablo]

Spinning back fist when someone is blitzing you.

 

[Shoot Boxe Hero]

Pretty amazing how she controlled the distance and how much she made Holly miss

 

[KlNG]

Make sure the person who is bigger,is a counter fighter and hits nothing but air.

 

[loyalyolayal]

It's Vladentina, you goofs!

 

[KillingJoke]

Holly was pulling her shots short. Seems like she was uncomfortable leading and afraid of being countered.

 

[Venom]

The female version of Conor McGregor vs Max Holloway. A bit less dynamic though with both women being counter-punchers

 

[ExitLUPin]

Valentina is far more technical than Holly.

Honestly even in her boxing career Holly never won by technique mostly on attrition, output and cardio. Her technique is very mediocre which says alot about womens boxing considering her success.

 

[DragonRising]

that was such a good fight
the footwork counters and technique looked beautiful
I love the level change in aggression, turned it up slowly but surely

Valentina convinced me she's champion material
im a fan

Valentina was great dictating the distance and Holly never took that chance because the counters.

Would have liked to see Holly bite down and go for it. I was wondering the whole time why did she come out as the aggressor? Normally she's on her bike and that would have helped if she didn't rush straight in every time.

What? Why Tate? She just got her nose busted and she said she's emigrating to Canada. Shev vs. Nunes II then make a superfight between her and Joanna when she takes the belt.

 

[gnarlynasty]

Holly was scared to be the aggressor,If she would of brought it to Valetina,things would of been different. Instead,she wanted to pick spots and lose.

 

[Hester65]

Holly came in on straight lines which made Valentina's job much easier. Valentina did a good job of hurting Holly's lead leg and landing the counter right hook.

... because of the way Valentina was making her fight.

Look at all of Holm's fights. She constantly comes up short on her strikes.

That's how she's looked in every ufc fight other than against Ronda imo.

Holly does that a lot though when someone isn't bum rushing her. I swear she was missing most of her punches and kicks by half a foot against Marion Reneau. Reneau just didn't have any offense of her own.

lol Yup Cuz Ronda bum rushed her and played right in to Holly's style.
