Ronda Rousey Sees Holly Holm as a Big Threat
On Tuesday, UFC women’s bantamweight champion, Ronda Rousey (12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) joined “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” to discuss the UFC 193 pay-per-view headliner with Holly Holm (9-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC), which takes place Nov. 14 at the 70,000-seat Etihad Stadium in Melbourne.
“This one’s going to be a much longer fight because she’s a 19-time world boxing champion with 100 percent takedown defense and head-kick knockouts,” Rousey said.
“She’s undefeated and an amazing athlete, and definitely the biggest threat to me, especially on paper and stylistically.
“She’s the type of fighter you have to be very, very patient with. I feel like she’s going to try to like keep distance and keep far away from me and get me frustrated until the point I make a mistake and she can try to kick me in the head, but it’s not going to go like that – not the way she wants.”
