Undefeated women's star Holly Holm signs with UFC
It's been a long time coming but multi-time world boxing champion Holly Holm has finally signed an exclusive, multi-fight deal with the UFC.
Holm joins the promotion with an undefeated record in MMA, going a perfect 7-0 thus far in her career while training out of Jackson's MMA in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Holm was a force to be reckoned with during her boxing career as well before transitioning to MMA full time last year. She amassed a 33-2-3 record as a pro boxer, winning titles for the WBF, WBAN, WBC, GBU, WIBA, IFBA, WBA and IBA as well.
The New Mexico fighter known as 'The Preacher's Daughter' has had highly publicized negotiations to sign with the UFC for the past several months, but no deal was reached until just recently.

This is great news for the bantamweight division. Can't wait to to see her in the octagon. The strawweights are filming the ultimate fighter right now too. Invicta FC (All Women's MMA promotion) will now be on UFC fight pass. Good times for Women's MMA. Blowing women's boxing out of the box. Can remember when was the last love chick boxing fight I saw.
Whats Holly Holms TDD like? Ive never actually seen her fight. I know shes a great striker, and she isnt only a Boxer but she knocks fools out with head kicks too.
If she works on her counter Judo hard and pulls a Gus(except actually knocking Rousey out, which shouldnt be hard at all.) id say we have a new female champ on our hands.
I welcome it, Rousey needs to be knocked out.
She trains with Jacksons gym wich is one of the best gyms in mma so she has a solid tdd defense so far but rousey is on another level so well see....
I am ok with Rousey and Holly Holm getting it on in the ring and then passionately embracing after.
:luvbed:
After? Passionately embracing is half the sport of MMA. XD
