We've had some injuries in training over the last two years. Holly (Holm) will fight at bantamweight or featherweight. She just wants to fight. Whenever the UFC books a fight, it will be ready. I hope that by the middle of the year she will return to acting. I know you really want the UFC title and to face (Amanda) Nunes. She wants Amanda to win (the rematch against Julianna Pena) so they can face each other again, because they know they made a mistake in that fight and want to climb that 'ladder' again,” said Winkeljohn.
Holly holm e Amanda nunes faced each other in UFC 239, which took place in July 2020. The duel was valid for the bantamweight belt (up to 61,2kg) and was won by the Brazilian with a knockout via high kick in the first round of the fight.
Former bantamweight champion (up to 61,2kg), the American felt the 'bitter taste' of her fifth career defeat, while she also has 14 other victories, including against names like Ronda Rousey, Megan anderson e Bethe Correia. On the other hand, the 'Leoa' tries to regain the title in the second match against Julianna Pena, UFC 277 on July 30th.
