McMann looked a bit rough coming into this one. Not sure if it was a rough training camp, or if the first strike or two from Davis put her in a bad place, but she probably should have fought better, and absorbed those limited strikes better. Her health bar looked like shit. And yet…little happened in this one. Soooo. Yeah?
