Holly Holm officially appeals UFC 208 loss due to punches landed after horn stat : mmafighting

The punches landed after the second round, in particularly, seemed to have hurt Holm immediately. "I hope Germaine is a lady of her word and gives Holly the immediate rematch she promised her," Fresquez said. Holly Holm isn't ready to forget about Saturday night just yet.

"That's not the signal for the exact end of the round.




Well, UFC 208 wasn't just a really bad card - it was a fairly irrelevant card too. Derek Brunson feels like he robbed by the judges after his UFC 208 bout against Anderson Silva, and he's got a good case. Light Heavyweight - Volkan Oezdemir, who upset Ovince Saint Preux at the event before UFC 208, passed Ilir Latifi and moved up to number ten.

Here's what I'll say to the judges — you guys love Anderson Silva, you guys are in awe of Anderson Silva. It's Anderson Silva. According to Abdel-Aziz, Brunson's appeal took umbrage with the judges who scored the fight in favor of Silva after three rounds at UFC 208. When the fight ended, Brunson had outstruck Silva by a total of 54-43 in significant strikes and 118-54 in total strikes, according to Fight Metric. You didn't score the fight.
