    Hopefully, but Tate's been in some snoozers and Holly's 2 other UFC fights(besides Ronda) were boring as well. The Main event is a guaranteed barn burner, KO or both. No other way it could go down....

    Of course she is, she has to realize she can't afford to lose tonight.

    She was way too nice to Holly during the build up, not saying everyone has to be like Conor toward their opponent but she was chummier than she normally is with her fights.

    Holm already reddening her face with only a couple of jabs. Miesha playing it a lot smarter than Ronda which everyone expected. Holm is just physically imposing. Shook off that takedown like nothing. 1-0 Holm

    Miesha clearly got that round, Holly can't let this stay on the ground otherwise Miesha got this

    Holm muscled her way out of that. She's clueless on the ground. Where this fight takes place will decide who wins. Every round starting on the feet is huge now. 1-1

    Awesome so far, think Holm had that last round. Tate obviously dominated the 2nd round, that was crazy.

    What we're seeing is what happens when (1) you don't engage a counter puncher (2) a striker gets conscious about the takedown. Holm won very narrowly thanks to her kicks. A very transitional round. 2-1 Holm

    I have it 3-1 Holm, but round 2 will get at least 1 10-8 & possibly 2. Could be a draw if Tate wins this round.
