Holly Holm Takes Less Than Six Minutes to Shock the World


Nobody gave Holly Holm much of a chance. She came into the fight as much as a 20-to-1 underdog. And then, she took less than six minutes to shock the world as she landed a second-round head kick knockout over Ronda Rousey to cap off UFC 193.

In case you didn’t see the knockout..............

Following her upset loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193, Ronda Rousey didn’t give a post-fight interview or stick around to reflect on her defeat with Joe Rogan. Instead, she went straight to the hospital to deal with her nasty split lip and any lingering effects from her knockout loss. This isn’t out of the ordinary for most UFC fights that end in knockout, but there was apparently some worry that Rousey had a concussion following her loss. This turned out to not be the case:

Dana White confirmed Rousey’s hospital visit in an interview with Fox Sports following the fight:

Holm did lots of damage, as Rousey endured a rough first round while Holm popped her with several hard punches to the face that bloodied her mouth and nose. Holm delivered a hellish left high kick, which connected with Rousey’s neck, early in round two that sent the bantamweight champion crashing to the canvas. Holm then followed her down to finish the fight.

Sources also informed ESPN on SportsCenter that Rousey will be having plastic surgery to fix her lip and a possible broken nose. This hasn’t been confirmed, but was reported on the televised broadcast on Sunday morning.

All of this makes for a new world for Rousey to deal with, and most certainly an unexpected one. She was a fighting champ and that means getting clocked at some point. Plenty of time to prepare for the inevitable rematch.

I fuckin loved it, Holly humbled the bitch!!! Holly made Ronda look stupid, like she had no idea what she was doing out there. All the other girls refused to keep there distance and would clinch with Ronda when they fought, bad idea!!! Holly did exactly what was needed to over come and beat Ronda.

You're absolutely right MrBig.Everyone fighting her made the mistake of getting in too close and allowing Rhonda to do what shes best at.Meisha Tate was the only fighter to take Rhonda to rd 3 and was beating her ass UNTIL she went in and allowed Rhonda to surprise surprise,win by armbar!

Holly stuck to her game,kept Rhonda away with punches and kicks and fought off Rhondas take down attempts,which were actually quite pathetic.You could see right away the look in Rhonda's eyes and facial expression change after getting rocked by Holly's punches.

its certainly plausible to give OFC a full slot, but the fact that no other team from OFC outside of New Zealand has even qualified could justify the .5 slot.

Youd think with 32 teams FIFA would give a full slot to every confederation. OFC still given the shaft and not seen as really a full fledged confederation.
