The former Bantamweight champion Holly Holm is all set to return to the UFC. There is not much time left for Holm to face Yana Santos at the UFC on ESPN 43. The promotion scheduled the bout at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas, United States. ‘The Preacher’s Daughter’ stayed away from the octagon after her loss against Ketlen Vieira at UFC Fight Night 206.

The bout was held on May 22nd 2022. Holm lost the fight via decision at the end of round five. The loss was terrible for her, as she was already facing a tumultuous time in her fighting career. Nonetheless, at the moment, great things are in store for the Albuquerque native. It seems that Holm has returned to the octagon in hopes of soon achieving a title bout.

Holly Holm talks about the intention behind her return

Holm has already signed a six-fight contract with the UFC before her bout against Santos. As reported by MMA Fighting, the news was confirmed by Holm’s longtime manager, Lenny Fresquez. Fresquez confirmed the news soon after the Albuquerque Journal primarily reported the contract. The 41-year-old has now revealed that her eye is on the bantamweight title.

Holm was addressing the press at the official UFC San Antonio media day ahead of her co-main event matchup on Saturday. When asked about her future goals, Holm said, “I think that’s the only thing you need to be focused on if you’re in this game. If you don’t want to be the champion what are you doing here? It’s a scary path to really take because you know that means you have to take the toughest fights the biggest fights and you have to be successful and that’s where all that pressure kind of come back, comes in on you but if I’m gonna be here on it I want to do it all the way.”

One of the biggest upsets in the history of the promotion

Holm proved that she is a great fighter when she defeated the UFC women’s bantamweight champion, Ronda Rousey. Rousey was undefeated and one of the strongest fighters of the time.
