ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- UFC women's bantamweight champion Holly Holm let the tears flow Sunday as she thanked a massive crowd of fans who turned out for a parade in her native Albuquerque.

"I see all the signs and the happy faces. You here Albuquerque made this possible," Holm said while standing on an outdoor stage at the city's Civic Plaza. "My whole career started right here. It wasn't just my team that helped me believe in myself, but it was the support of Albuquerque and I just thank you so much."

Boxing skills always trumps dry humping and tickling "groundwork." A true Boxer will always have the advantage in a fight over all that MMA garbage

Coulda sworn this was Boxingscene.

Boxing Scene pretty much covered her whole boxing career, so not surprised they are supporting her big moment, unlike Ring TV who never gave her any play when she was a pro boxer or when she turned to MMA because they were on Rousey's train.
