Last weekend, the Ultimate organization announced that, given the injury of Robbie Lawler, the duel between Ronda Rousey e Holly holm would be brought forward to UFC 193, scheduled for November in Australia. Despite the change in the confrontation, which leaves her in even more adverse conditions, the former boxing champion has hundreds of thousands of reasons to celebrate the fight, at least that's what her manager guarantees.

In an interview with the North American website “Sherdog”, Lenny Fresquez revealed that Holm will receive a scholarship higher than that paid to Zingano cat to face Ronda in February this year, US$ 100 thousand (R$ 365 thousand, at the current price). “All I can say is that Holly holm will receive more than Zingano cat at UFC 184. At first I was hesitant to accept the fight against Ronda Rousey. I would prefer Holly to face Sarah Kaufman before fighting for the belt. But, after receiving the offer, I asked if there was a chance of doing one more fight before fighting for the belt, and the UFC told me no, that this was the fight they wanted. Since we are under contract and they are the boss, there was no other answer to give than 'yes',” said the agent.
Undefeated in MMA in nine fights, Holly holm challenges the also unbeatable as a professional Ronda Rousey on November 14th, in the main fight of UFC 193. The event will mark the debut of the most famous octagon on the planet in the Australian city of Melbourne and will be held in a football stadium with capacity for more than 70 thousand fans – an audience that, if confirmed, it will be the biggest in the organization's history.
