Filed under: News , UFC , Videos LAS VEGAS – Former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm is feeling a little deja vu. But she’s also looking toward future goals. It was a little more than two years ago that Holm readied herself for a fight against the mighty Ronda Rousey for the UFC’s 135-pound strap at UFC 193. Holm was a massive underdog heading into that fight – and then turned the world on its head with a head-kick knockout that catapulted her to the role of champion and UFC star. Just two days away from UFC 219, Holm (11-3 MMA, 4-3 UFC) is preparing for another steep challenge against Cris Cyborg (19-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC), the reigning women’s featherweight champion. Cyborg hasn’t been beaten since her professional debut in 2005 and has laid waste to every opponent inside the cage.
