    Nunes is so superior with her ground game. Shevchenko can't do anything.

    edit: That was a stupid move, she was about to finish it if she'd just kept choking her.

    Really??? I dunno about that pal .

    I thought she was the only one landing any real strikes tbh. Nunes didn't do anything when she had her on the ground.

    She's getting feckin mangled now though.

    She did well to last through that round! Needs a finish to win it

    She might get up, she might get up....nope, she's back down.

    Nunes will finish it.

    Shevchenko did well to escape but Nunes should have finished that.

    Something not nice about watching women getting cut open like this.

    Very gutsy by Valentina there.

    Hardcore Henry sounds like a steaming turd to me.

    half an hour since i turned it on and I think the "hardcore Henry" count has been at least 45

    Great composure by Shevchenko to get back into that fight.

    Nunes seems ****ed now.

    Nunes will just about edge it. Great showing from Shevchenko in the 3rd though, left it too late to start turning it up

    It's the logical conclusion if you don't like watching women get cut open.....stick to the mens fights.

    I know I'm in the minority but I think Schevchenko won the first and third here.

    Much better third round there. If it was out of 5 it might be a different result.

    Has to go to Nunes, but great third round from Shevchenko.

    29 - 28 Nunes, Shevchenko lost it by being so cautious in the first.

    Even if any judges gave Shevchenko the first, Nunes took the second 10-8 in my opinion. Not enough 10-8 rounds are actually given.

    Actually, say what you want about Sage, he's not a patch on the true hero of Karate Kid.

    Pity Shevchenko took a round to get into the fight.
