Yes ortega/hollaway was far more exciting. But in terms of defense, stragety and control...they made the guys look like 2 brawlers
I disagree. I admire fighters who don't need to dot all of the "i"'s and cross all of the "t"'s of "proper" technique in a fight, not because they don't know how to do so, but because they have such a degree of mastery that they can display their mastery playfully. Holloway's performance was great in that way. I loved it! Same sort of stylistic playful mastery I've admired in Anderson Silva and Conor McGregor.
