UFC 193 was a pivotal moment in the history of women’s combat sports. Everything had been thrilling, from the weigh-ins to the match’s climax. It’s been eight years since Holly Holm’s stunning head-kick knockout of Ronda Rousey, which resulted in Rousey’s first loss in the sport.

During the UFC 193 weigh-ins, Holm and ‘Rowdy’ had a rival standoff. When Joe Rogan, the show’s host, asked Holm about the weigh-in tussle, she said savagely, “I don’t know, just having a drink!“.

The crowd laughed in reaction to the comment while Rogan continued asking,” This is a huge fight for you, one of the most important fights in the history of this division, so give us your thoughts on Ronda as a champion and what tomorrow night means to you?”

Holm replied, ” Well I, m here, I’m here to shock the world and I have respect for her in the world as she has done a hard job though, you know she is the best rank for everybody, but I’m a different fighter”

‘The preacher’s daughter’, justified her statement by winning UFC women’s Bantamweight title in UFC 193 via a lead leg roundhouse kick straight to ‘Rousey’s head.

A rematch was expected, which would have been a significant rematch in the UFC. However, Holm did not wait and chose to battle Miesha Tate, where she suffered a devastating loss through a rear-naked choke in the last round, damaging her undefeated career.
