The cheering for Holm btwn 1&2 round

Did that many people show up to see Ronda lose, or did Holly win the crowd over? Or a combination of the two? Man the sound got all messed up once Holm got on the screen during the stool talk .

Aussies love the underdog as much as anyone.

Australians appear to be the best crowd. Even when their fighters lose they seem to not get overly butthurt like in other places.

It also doesn't hurt that Australian cards tend to be full of awesome fights

The roof nearly blew off the bar I was in sat night. I think alot of people just love to see an epic moment and react. That was a super exciting lead up then the head kick landed and everyones brain exploded.

I think it was because of the late punch. There were some boos for that which then turned to cheers for Holm
plus the general underdog support you often get

There's a reason why every event in Brazil I root against the Brazilian fighters, regardless of their opponent.

You're right, the brazillians always seem to be extra derp derp with nationalism

As soon as the first round ended millions of people entered the "I've believed in Holm the whole time" mindset.
