my logic goes the same way. Its just the way Holy is focused this time, its a feeling she might pull the win out of nowhere

If Holm just clinches and grinds for the first 2 rounds and turns it into a cardio battle, it will take away the main threat of Nunes, which is her explosiveness.

Nunes may have improved on her cardiovascular endurance as shown in the second Shevchenko fight, but she put on some muscle for the Cyborg fight not too long ago and my speculation is that she's going to have less muscular endurance because of the oxygen needs and probably is going to have a harder weight cut too. If Holm sticks to the grinding plan, she will win the point striking battle later on. Moreover, her footwork is not on the level of Holm, who is able to keep it the fight on the outside with her reach advantage and her Jackson-Wink style of distance control. Holm just needs to watch out for the dangerous calf kick Nunes has that will mess with her footwork. Nunes threw it early in the Cyborg fight and my expectation is that she will throw it early against Holm too to slow her down.

Nunes' incomplete ground game reminds me of Ulka Sasaki. Excellent offense, poor defense (for a BJJ black belt). She looks great when she's pouring it on, but makes careless mistakes every now and then. I don't think Holm should be intimidated by her black belt and just try to smash and rest her weight on her from the top guard position if the opportunity arises.

Nunes actually did struggle making weight. Thats good for Holm. I dont think she will go on her face and try to bang with her like cyborg did
