If they're going to rush a contender to fight mm, i would rather it be pettis. Plua i think at this point that borg has proven far too unreliable to book. Mm deserves better.

Good round for Nunes, and she didn't have to exert much energy either.

Nunes looking good. Pacing herself well, but still managed to land a couple solid shots.

Nunes looks very fresh heading into the championship rounds. Good to se she corrected her one glaring weakness.

2-2 even or 3-1 shevchenko

This fight is so razor close.  Nunes looks like she is looking for openings but isn't acting on it while Valentina has been throwing a lot but they don't look significant enough to have enough damage.

Nunes 3-2 on my card. She's a helluva champion. She fixed the only glaring hole in her game, and she's gone on quite the tear. Not the most convincing win, but goddamn. Finally a WBW champion who refuses to play hot potato with that belt. Give me Nunes/Zingano II soon and take my ******* money.

Cant be mad at that decision.  Would have been good with Valentina winning too.

Oh my, I do not agree with that call at all.  Not one bit.  Amanda Nunes, IMO, got outstruck and outclassed by Shevchenko for 3+ rounds as a result of her trying to conserve stamina.  Even that takedown was not convincing enough to give that fight to Nunes.
