ESPN predictions
Christy Martin, former junior middleweight champion and member of the International Boxing Vestíbulo of Fame
It could go either way, but I think the fight goes to a decision and Han takes the win again.
Cecilia Comunales, former lightweight champion
Han by decision if she follows the same game plan from the first fight and makes those small adjustments — more jab and left hook/cross — to create more separation while protecting herself from headbutts when Holm tries to get inside.

Based on cold, hard logic and what’s already happened, I’d bet it’ll be a unanimous decision for Han. If Holm ends up winning, it won’t be by decision, it’ll be by landing a punch while she’s planted. Neither of them is a power puncher, so that’s a long shot. But maybe if Holm manages to catch Han at just the right moment while she’s planted firmly, Holm could get a knockout. That’s the only way I think she could take the victory. But to me, that option is practically nonexistent, so it’s a unanimous decision for Han.
