The UFC is already creating great expectations for the rematch between Ronda Rousey e Holly holm.

“I think it will be the biggest fight in UFC history. I think the whole world is interested in a rematch because it was a big surprise. Many people thought Ronda was completely invincible. Seeing her lose like that was a shock. People want to see if she can turn things around”, declared the manager, in an interview with the newspaper “Sporting News”.
Fertitta was recently with Ronda at the fighter's home in Los Angeles (USA), and was impressed by the former champion's desire to return to action. “She is biting to come back. Before she even lost, she had signed a commitment to make two films, so she's going to make them. Afterwards, she will return to training and the octagon”, he added.
UFC president, Dana White, and the two fighters have already shown themselves open to holding a rematch at the historic UFC 200 event, in Las Vegas (USA), on July 9, 2016. The first fight between them took place in November, with Holm winning by knockout in the second round and taking Rousey's unbeaten record.
