Nunes all the way, take it from me, most of these clowns posting about how she is going to lose, most likely never have been an athlete in their entire life. Take it from me, I was a division 1 all-american in wrestling back in 2010, there is nothing worse than someone criticizing your conditioning, it's funny that's what you guys are going off of, Conditioning?? Ya'll don't have a clue, you know what a top tier athlete does when they get called out about their conditioning? Take it to a whole new level of training, she bloodied her up controlled all of the ground game, and this was a year ago, I doubt Shevchenko has got that much better than Nunes. I see her just beating the piss out of Shevchenko. Easy $$

Nunes' cardio has actually always been a weak spot for her. She's very much a frontrunner like Vitor Belfort in that she either starches her opponents in the 1st round or she gasses out and loses late. Did you even watch the first fight? Nunes really didn't do anything to Shevchenko on the feet in the 1st round. It was actually pretty even. Shevchenko was just being a bit too defensive and looking to counter too much. She made the mistake of closing the distance a little too much and got tripped up for her troubles. If she doesn't make that same strategic blunder, she probably wins that fight. And it was pretty obvious, had that been a 5 round fight, Nunes had NOTHING left.
Since that fight, I think Shevchenko has improved while Nunes hasn't really even been tested. She throws the same punching combination over and over and over and over and some of these women MMA fighters are too dumb to defend against it. Tate quit at the first sign of adversity and wanted out. Rousey was a joke. We really don't know if Nunes has even improved but I think it's obvious Shevchenko has.
Shevchenko actually has the fighting background and style to avoid Nunes' dangerous striking game because when you break it down, Nunes is actually very basic and sloppy on the feet. But most of the women MMA fighters aren't that great and she's been able to get by. Nunes can certainly overpower her and finish her in the 1st, but if she doesn't, I don't know how we don't see a replication of the first fight but this time, it plays out over 5 rounds and Nunes will have absolutely nothing left in Round 4 or 5. I think it's silly to think Nunes will just easily improve her cardio when it's been an issue her entire career. I'd rather stick with what we know, and that's knowing Shevchenko has the gas tank for a 5 round fight, doesn't get fluster by the striking of Nunes, and is much better on the ground than she was in their first meeting. I think you're on the wrong side of this one
