UFC on FOX 20: Holm vs. Shevchenko Prediction and Info Thread

[BALIK]

I'll go for Holly Holm on this fight. Holm is hungry for a win and needs to prove something to the UFC management that she is ready for another title fight. We might see a submission or a KO on the first 2 rounds but I guess a title fight for Holm is still far from reality because UFC management already have someone in mind regardless if Holm wins.

Holly Holm can manage to defeat Valentina Shevchenko if she can set up a fluke punch and land a hard hitting kick, remember when she fought Rousey that upsets the crowd on that day?

from what i've read on mmajunkie, holm seems to be predicted to winning the games, although its only prediction, but if holm can be stand and fight with good, i think her chance to be a winner is possible. its all about technique that she learn to be a good winner.

Holm is definitely the big favorite -300+ in odds. Its weird how big the odds are because they both have the same styles and are both kick
boxers. I just figured that the line would be lower but still like holm to get the big win.

HOLM'S STATS: 7 KO/TKO| 0 SUBMISSIONS |3 DECISIONS| VS SHEVCHENKO'S STATS: 4 KO/TKO | 5 SUBMISSIONS |3 DECISIONS|

This going to be an exciting fight! Holly Holm is likely the better striker than Valentina Shevchenko but either way I see this going to be an entertaining fight, round 2 TKO(head kick and punches) by Holly Holm.

I wouldnt say that. They are both very good strikers and Valentina has an advantage in the clinch and ground.
Holm has a list of boxing titles and some kickboxing titles too. Shevchenko has a list of kickboxing titles and 2 muay thai titles.

They both come from striking.

This is just my opinion but I think Shevchenkois the better striker. The fight could be close to evens and betting for value on Valentina is a good gamble. We could see the upset of the night here. I just think Shevchenko wants it more than Holm.

Really thinking of going another parlay or playing more straight
on Holm. Shes never lost 2 in a row even in her career including
boxing, kickboxing or mma.

I love holly (maybe a bit in love, haha) but jeez valentina looks like a tank and she can move and punch and kick. I'm worried shes going to be too much for holly. Plus holly looked a bit nervous at the weigh ins.

[Cazkys]

Can't wait to see Holly retrieve what's hers, don't disappoint my bet on line . Although those two are an amazing fighters and strikers but something tells me that Holly Holm is going to win. I just hope it's not boring to watch I need to see a blow by blow battle and a totally knock out on the ground.

Gotta agree, after watching the weigh in its making me think valentina may be worth a shot as a big underdog.  She looks like if she gets her to the ground holly wont
be able to get away from that tank.

valentina is not even that big of a dog anymore and what makes you think a striker is gonna take it to the ground lol

[DeathAngel]

I have to pick Holm here, I think she has the motivation & hunger to win this fight. Holm to win by KO.

Definitely I would not miss this fight! If there's any fighter who can bounce back from a loss it's Holly Holm, I expect too much from her, hopefully she don't disappoint me . But I would like to see her work in the octagon like what she did with Ronda Rousey. Anyway, judging Valentina Shevchenko as Holm's opponent, she's a beast also her striking is just as elite and a really hard striker both on the same level. Can't wait to watch this!

[pereira4]

I think Holm will win. I don't get how she lost to Tate. Tate is good but not on the level of Holm or Rousey. I think Holm will dominate the UFC female fights if she starts being consistent. I don't think Rousey will ever come back and if she comes back she will be too anxious due his trauma of losing his perfect record.

[ralle14]

I like Holly Holm on this match I feel she will rise on top against Valentina Shevchenko this is gonna be a good match I hope we see a KO tonight.

Weird, it seems that I can't bet on this event. The usual site I use for sportbetting is bugged. It show even UFC on FOX but there is nothing there:

No excuses for Holm. Easily beaten on the fight. Holly Holm's punches and kicks barely landed the entire fight. Holly rocked her one time, but Valantina recovered and dominated. Anyway congrats to Valentina Shevchenko. Just lose my bet 

[Rubberduckie]

WOW I'm shocked Holm had zero heart

she was clearly losing and her corner even was telling her she had to
make something happen and she continued to do nothing. The worst part
is Shevchenko didn't look good either so UFC loses big time. If holm wins they
get rousey holm 2 and now they get nothing cause why would you pay big money
to see rousey vs a fluke winner like holm who has lost 2 in a row. Sad outcome for
my wallet and for the ufc.
