This weekend, UFC women's bantamweight champion, Holly holm, will make his first title defense against Miesha Tate. And the undefeated fighter will have a special supporter: none other than Ronda Rousey, former weight belt holder.

Holm took the title from Ronda in November last year, with a surprising knockout at UFC 193. It was the first defeat for the now former champion, while Holm recorded her tenth victory in ten fights in professional MMA.

Precisely for this reason, Ronda wants her tormentor to come away with victory at UFC 196, so that she herself can have the opportunity to take away Holm's unbeaten record. “I need her to win. I want to be the one who beats her. I don’t want anyone to have the honor of beating her other than me”, said the fighter, in an interview with the North American website “TMZ Sports”.

the fight between Holly holm e Miesha Tate will be the second most important fight at UFC 196, this Saturday (March 5), in Las Vegas, in the United States. Just after, Conor McGregor moves up to the welterweight division and faces Nate diaz.
