Nunes is an absolute killer but I'm taking the bullet here. Tko4 #UFCEdmonton

I can see Shevchenko losing the first round or two, and then winning by decision. I think Nunes was lucky their first fight wasn't 5x5's.

Shevchenko is far too tense. Hopefully she's loosens up in the second. #UFC215

Are they feeling out or feeling apprehensive? I forget that this is a part 2. First fight was arguably controversial @ufc

Getting good. ready. 1-1 #UFC215

Maybe @BulletValentina is pulling a @FloydMayweather ? @ufc
— Alpha Cat Zingano (@CatZingano) September 10, 2017
Well nunes still has some gas and it's rd 3 and she's up 2. Valentina needs to start pushing the pace #UFCEdmonton

You'll be warned about eye poking but there'll be zero repercussions so go for it.

All I know right now is @BulletValentina 's shorts keep making me think of cherry Dr Pepper @ufc

Can't wait for these scorecards if it goes to a decision. #UFC215
— Ian McCall (@Unclecreepymma) September 10, 2017
Prob comes down to round 5 here. Have it tied up. #UFC215
— Kenny Florian (@kennyflorian) September 10, 2017
I think @BulletValentina is landing more strikes this round but @Amanda_Leoa is seen moving forward. Makes it hard to gain perspective @ufc

There must be a lot of ghosts in Edmonton I'm hearing a lot of Boos #ufc215

The boo's are ridiculous. This is such a technical fight.
— Ian McCall (@Unclecreepymma) September 10, 2017
