I think I talked about this in other discussion thread. The problem with Holly is not just going 'ish ish', but also having problem with establishing an optimal range for herself. She seems to plant too much weight on her lead leg before every punches. This might work for Holm in Boxing fight but this is MMA so the range is different. Whenever she tries to punch as she closes the distance, what she ends up doing usually is taking a huge step while punching so most of her blitz do not land... like in this fight. (And of course, Cyborg is just too big and powerful.. his her jabs are really heavy) I am sure there is an Judo Chop article on Holm's weaknesses that might explain things better than I just did above. Holly's chin is also really good too.

Damn, You Know Who is slowly turning into a complete farce, who apparently forsake his dignity and honor for a boatload of cash lol. I think the Eagle moniker for Khlabib is more about being symbolic imo. It might have to do something with his macho bear-wrestling Russian Dagestani culture and I got no problem with that. I missed the Khabib-Barboza fight but the channel I was watching, for some reason, recapped all the previous fights except that one so I can't offer any insight into it.

P.S: Do you remember Anthony 'the Mauler' Pettis?....
