Coenen is very close to cap. Destroying Honchak in this dominant a manner clearly shows her progress. Don’t think raw build Coenen would have had much of a chance here. But who knows? Anything can happen in MMA. ?
Honchak could use some toughness. Generally, her offense is good, so that’s all I can really suggest in this one. That, or one of the other defensive skills, like dodging, or agility.
