Holly Holm har blivit som mest känd för sin knockout av forne bantamviktsmästarinnan Ronda Rousey under UFC 193 i november 2015. Holm vill dock inte att denna vinsten ska definiera hur hon är som fighter och vill hellre bli ihågkommen som en av de bästa inom MMA.
Det här berättade Holm via FOX Sports:
Who doesn’t want to have the chance to make history and it give that extra motivation for it. It’s one of those things, how can you not get excited preparing for something like that? That you can make history. It’s the first belt at that weight and the chance to fight for a second belt in the UFC after coming from boxing. It motivates me for sure…
I don’t want my whole career to be defined around getting the belt from Ronda. I want my career to be defined by me being the best fighter I can be and accomplishing the biggest things I can, from whatever competition comes in front of me.
So I want this for me for my career. I don’t want it to just be around the one fight. I want them to remember everything after. I want to be able to do a lot in this career still.
Holm kommer under helgens gala UFC 208 att ta sig an Germaine de Randamie i Brooklyn, i den första fjäderviktsmatchen för kvinnor där bältet står på spel.
