Filed under: News , UFC , Videos Before Holly Holm could get her shot at history against then-champ Ronda Rousey, she had to go through a “Bruiser” on a hot streak. At UFC Fight Night 71 in July 2015, Holm took on Marion Reneau in a crucial fight in the women’s bantamweight division. She had to work at it, but Holm earned a unanimous-decision win  over the Californian, and she then went on to dethrone Rousey in devastating upset fashion at UFC 193 to win the belt. On Saturday Holm (10-2 MMA, 3-2 UFC) seeks history again when she fights Germaine de Randamie (7-3 MMA, 3-1 UFC) in UFC 208’s pay-per-view main event. The winner becomes the inaugural UFC women’s featherweight champion, which means Holm could join Randy Couture, B.J. Penn and Conor McGregor as the only fighters to hold UFC belts in two different weight classes
