UFC 215: Nunes vs. Shevchenko 2 post-fight results and analysis

Related Topics: UFC 215

I want to point out that UFC 215, as a whole, was a really entertaining event. It’s just unfortunate for the province of Alberta that the two main events they’ve managed are Renan Barao’s workmanlike win over Urijah Faber, and Amanda Nunes’ narrow, debatable split decision over Valentina Shevchenko. Yes, Nunes was able to go the full five rounds, and it sure helped that this was fought at such a mild pace with little grappling, so we were treated to a lot of counterstriking, feints, not a lot of eye-opening, jaw-dropping shots scoring, and the type of tactics that can make a crowd like Edmonton’s quite impatient.
