Holm vs Aldana: Holly Holm came away with a dominant decision win over Aldana. She won every round on my scorecard and looked the most well-rounded she has ever looked in her career. She took Aldana down with ease multiple times. She looked comfortable in top position and had some nice ground and pound when she got the takedowns. She turns 39 in a couple of weeks and before this fight, I was wondering how much she had left in her and if she could still fight top level opponents. After this performance I think she still has a couple of years left where she can be top five in the division. 

Best of The Rest: A pretty lack luster card overall did have some other notable performances. Germaine de Randamie got her first ever submission victory when she put Pena asleep with a guillotine choke. Todorovic stays undefeated at 10-0 with a second round TKO finish over Townsend. He looks like a a legit prospect at 185lbs. Kyler Phillips got a finish early in the second round over Else. I really like this guys style and am very excited to see what the future hold for him. Carlos Condit got his first win in five years. Finally, Casey Kenny looked excellent in his decision win.
