Holm vs. de Randamie

This is the official discussion thread for Holm vs. de Randamie. Let's see what you've got.

I think a lot are sadly counting out Randaime. Her Kickboxing is HIGH class, no ELITE class. Undefeated Thai fighter says a lot. Holm has great kickboxing too, especially boxing. This is one of my predictions of FotN. The styles are perrrrrfect. I still have Holm later rounds by TKO. I won't count out Randaime though.

was initially favoring de randamie because holly has "dropped off," but germaine has been taken to decision by every noteworthy fighter she has faced and holly can take a shot and go 5 rounds. She's the higher caliber fighter here and she likely has a ground advantage as well.

I could be wrong but I will be cheering for Holm.

Holm is hungry for a win after her 2 fight losing streak, germaine is a good striker but i feel her style will open up holms counter striking game. I think holm will counter her throughout the fight with her quick punches and footwork to avoid getting caught or clinched, and she wins by dec.

Tough fight to pick..but I gotta go with Holm!

Holm.

I think Holms is better, however I am worried about Holms chin.  It never been great, but it gotten worse over the years and was already showing signs of waning prior to the UFC.I am little worried she could be winning the entire fight and just get caught once, and she done for.  Still siding with Holms but I am worried about this fight. Otherwise I think Holms is a better striker and aggressive fighters  play right into her game.

From bad to worse to terrible. That is the path created by the UFC with WFW division.


The media call for de Randamie is a stroke of genius though, make the public want something they had no interest in. The next time I take any notice of this division is when Cyborg returns to beat the crap of whoever is the current champ. 

It was not a stroke of Genius has the UFC did not plan for her to create this controversy.
