GDT: UFC Fight Night: Holm vs Vieira

[Killahpunk]

Close fight after 2 rounds. I thought Holm was gonna get choked in the 2nd.

 

[m9]

Not the most entertaining fight, that's for sure.

Holm gets outboxed way too often for an ex boxing world champ

Tough fight to score. Holm with 1&3 I think so it might come down to this one.

 

[MD thaivuN]

Vieira's coach grilling her for a round she arguably won lol

 

[m9]

Round 5 for Holm. I have her winning 48-47. Vieira won Round 4 and maybe 2 but hard to find another round for her unless she stole 3.

---

Interesting decision, wasn't really expecting that. I guess 2/3/4 because 1/5 seemed clear Holm rounds.

I was just going to say for somebody who's going into the boxing Hall of Fame, Holly's hands suuuuuuuuuck. She has good kicks, good at maintaining distance, good takedown defense, she's smart, and she's used her wrestling effectively at times, but her punches rarely land clean and never seem hard enough to earn any respect from her opponent.

I thought that was a fight where Vieira won the fight as a whole, but Holly won on the scorecards.

I don't think Vieira has 'it', though. Just no killer instinct. Holly was landing nothing of consequence and Vieira still wasn't throwing nearly enough and was just accepted being on the cage. I totally get her corner's frustration.

 

[Killahpunk]

I had it scored 48-47 Holm. But neither fighter impressed.

 

[m9]

I actually am fine with the scorecards now that they've been released. Holm 1&5. Vieira 2&4. Round 3 was close and the swing round.

 

[CDJ]

I actually ended up missing my first card in 6 months.

Looking forward to seeing Hooper’s improvement. Saw the Chidi KO on Twitter….brutal

Not surprised Medic got the win. Guys legit. Jalin Turner was just too much too soon

Pereira has gotten less wild and now has 5 in a row. Beaten some legit guys too

 

[CDJ]

Just watched Hooper-Colares

Chase is dragging people into deep water and drowning them at 22. Good for him

Almeida might be a future champion

Pereira called out Masvidal - says Jorge slid into his wife's DMs.

Did some "research" and Pereira really is on some kind of winning streak.

Yeah even his last loss was a DQ in which he was murdering Diego Sanchez

He’s refined his game. He’s not a backflipping maniac anymore, he’s actually trying to win


Masvidal responded with a screenshot and she actually slid into his DM’s. Yeeeeeesh lol. What a dumb sport, I love it

Yeah, the streak isn't against chumps either. Khaos, Price, Fialho, and of course Ponz are all respectable wins. I don't know how high his ceiling is, but he's massive for the weight class, insanely athletic, tough as nails, and pretty well rounded it seems.

A few good fights on both cards. Disappointed Viana didn't show more after being off for about a year.
