"I work hard to make my weight, I expect the same". I completely agree. If you don't think you can make the weight, don't agree to the fight.
Facts. Although I’d still fight them if I get half their purse
holly is like 100 years old. no one wants to see WMMA
shes way past fighting...her payday is just being able to make weight at 135 and shes probably walking around at 136....big whoop....
i guess metabolism is a fight when you look 70....wtf set up this fight?
@@aimlessdrive8723she's 40 and looks in her thirties. Put up your photo or shut your weak mouth about looks.
@@dennis3224it’s cause Kayla is like a solid 25-30 lbs heavy then her she knows she will lose
She beat Ronda Rousey in one of the biggest moments in UFC history! She fought Nunes, Cyborg and now Kayla. She's a 1st ballot hall of famer!
Yeah, Of getting her ass kicked
Her fight against Ronda is easily one of the top 3 moments ever
Looking back as much as I hate Ronda, I think she was right about Holm being fake leaning on the goodie two shoes persona.

@@matrix35...said no one, ever...
I’ll always watch a Holly fight 🤷♂️
This woman has dedicated her life to martial art for over 22 years and still a live dog in the ring. Multiple world boxing champion then transitioned over to mma to extent her career. Definitely a 1s ballot hall of famer. She was also a kickboxer. Holm doesn`t get spoken about much because she is not loud, never has a bad attitude and never curses.
Kind of backed her into a corner there. If she says “sure I’ll fight regardless” then that sends a signal to the opponent that it’s ok to miss.
Solid take
Yeah good point
Well that’s Ariel 😂
Its just Ariel doing his thing
holly is like 100 years old. no one wants to see WMMA
Im confused why they made this fight and force Kayla to cut down to 135 when the 145 champ is the least talented champion in the company and would be perfect for Kayla to run it and draw Amanda back into it.
They did the same thing with Cyborg, forcing these women into these terrible weight cuts. I don't get it.
What a solid lady. If she beats Kayla, which she can absolutely do, I wouldn’t even mind her jumping the line/getting a quick title shot with Pennington to give her one last, very obtainable, shot at the title before walking into the sunset. If anyone’s earned it, she has. Oh and if you haven’t watched her boxing career, do it. Even when she lost, which was rare, she was a Warrior like few will understand…

You’ll be surprised at people after 40 can beat the tar outta other people don’t ever under estimate us old folks Holly is an amazing young woman she’s been fighting since she was 16 and to keep going I’m inspired ☺️
A LOT of haters in the comments….. why yall so invested in what Holly does or doesn’t do? Girl had a hell of a fighting career and these comments just show how young (or ignorant) some of yall are lol. MASSIVE respect for Holly Holm!
Agree with Holly, you accept the fight and you make the weight, what's the point accepting the fight in the 1st place?
I watched her KO Hondy Lousy probably 40 times.
She will be forever in my heart.
Holly is a true Champ. Only Boxing Champ to cross over and become a UFC / MMA Champ. Future Hall of Famer. Under appreciated. Huge respect!!! This’ll be a great fight!

Casual comment😂
@@rootiyriddle636the fact you feel the need to copy/paste this on every single comment means you have an incredibly sad life.
Holly is the first period, man or woman, to hold titles in both professional boxing and MMA, in the UFC no less….. that’s kind of very really truly very insanely impressive…..
Dont blame her. That chick is not a 135er. A double edge sword. She beats kayla, nothing happens. Kayla wins shes now in the top 10 for beating an out of prime holm. Bs fight. Will be rooting for holly out of respect but im not a fan if this matchup.
Also if they're having Kayla make 135, 145 is basically scrapped. Guess that's not a bad thing tho.
Dude
Should be Holm vs Cyborg at 300.
Kala cyborg holm going have to let her be 140 catch weight
@@hashslingingslasher9316 Cyborg vs Nunes II is coming
holly in her prime would've done the same thing to kayla as she did to ronda. she's over 40 years old now, but i don't think kayla can just steamroll her. kayla at 135 will not be this physical monster she was in the pfl and also she fought mostly cans in the pfl. and btw it's ridiculous to see the donkey ariel is always trying to pretend like amanda's ducking julianna. he's julianna's dog because she always say yes to be on his show while amanda always said no. julianna is pure crap with 3-3 in her last 6 fights. the only notable win in her career was against an injured and ill-prepared amanda. as soon as amanda was back in normal shape she beat up julianna like a dog for five rounds straight. and when they were about to fight for a third time julianna ran.
Exactly, she’s fighting a legit former high level fighter and not the middle school lunch lady lol. And yea Ariel try’s to act like it wasn’t Julianna who pulled out the trilogy
@@gp873bro cmon now some of the pfl girls she fought were decent😭😭. Honestly though I think holly loses this fight. She can’t compete with Kayla on the ground and I think Kayla will eventually get it their she’s not finna stay their and bang with her all night like we’ve seen others try and do in the past.
@@iangarza4565 hollys tdd is pretty underrated and like you said, Kayla isn’t going to be a strong monster at 135. I really don’t even see Kayla making weight. And even if she does, she’ll be slow. Her walking weight is likely around 170. Look at how slow Meisha was when she dropped to 125, just one weight class and got pieces up by Lauren Murphy..
Kayla is dropping two weight classes after she’s been at 155 for years. I know she has a decent turn around time but I just don’t see it being successful for her. I could bring wrong though.
She had to be dropping weight planning this
everyone thinks they know better than the odds makers lol
It would be huge if Holly knocks out Kayla. I would love to see that.
It won't happen but i would love to see that as well. Holy, is going to be submitted quickly. She can only run so much.
Something we should remember is if Kayla is worn out from the insane weight cut. It could effect her mental sharpness too
Kayla, know exactly what she is doing, she will be fine. She is not stupid to let that happen. Once she catches Holy, it's over, very quickly.
Hollys always been the peoples champ
what people are you talking about lmao.....
@@aimlessdrive8723 adults
@@vipset87 im an adult. Never liked her. Sue me
She’s an amazing and Beautiful warrior🙌.
She seems like a really nice down to earth gal
gotta love holly holm a true champion still doing it
Whatever she was dealing with personally in the last fight, she needs to get her head right for this fight. Another loss would really put her out of the equation for a belt. This is an important fight. Get your mind and body right Holly.
holly is like 100 years old. no one wants to see WMMA
@@rootiyriddle636speak for yourself
She’s so humble!
Holly always keeps it real. She will likely fight Kayla regardless of weight cut. The payday will outweigh Dana's wrath... Respect!
First Rousey, who she essentially retired (split credit with Nunes, and I’m still embarrassed for Rousey), then Harrison. The common denominator? No hands. Ok Rousey had NO hands, KH has very little…Holm could very well ko her, and I hope she does. That would be an epic way to go out. Good luck HoHo!
Dana White is trying to build Kayla Harrison off of Holly Holm. Reminds me of when Ken Shamrock said, "Hey. If the UFC wants to build Rich Franklin off of me, that's fine."
😂
Not only a great fighter, she’s an incredible person! Absolute legend!
im calling it now harrison gonna miss weight horribly
🤣😭
Either that or she collapses at the weigh ins if she actually makes 135
Durrr
thats her own personal problem
the weight issue was made up by Ariel.. holly even said she doesn't believe Kayla ever missed weight
how can one not like Holly?
way to get people even more excited for this fight than they already are by saying it wont happen when she inevitably misses weight 😂
Why would anyone be excited for this fight to begin with?
The only reason it was made was to make the surprise Kayla joining announcement. Beyond that, nobody really cares about the fight.
@@somdutroythe signing is to strip PFL of their names.
Yep
Try get Amanda back
@@somdutroyanyone who isn’t a complete casual is excited for this fight. It’s just people who know nothing about mma and just pretend to be fans cause they think it sounds cool that aren’t excited.
Stay Professional Holly. You are consistently straight forward and honest with your game. Best of Luck!
All the respect for fighting the best BUT she's basically lost against all of them other than Ronda. I'm a fan of Holly! I thought she was gonna be dominant but its hard to come into the game so late. God bless.
Well she has beaten the current champ.. twice.
Humble and sweet ... With a mean head kick . You just never know, but Kayla is going to bring the most power she's seen . And there will be the big possibility of speed to deal with .
And she has been handed the short end of the stick a few times .
Rooting for you Holly. Hopefully you have a big win and retire on top by beating a worthy opponent. Lets go girl! 💪
Although she is a pro, I don't believe Kayla will make the weight. Hopefully they won't screw over Holly like they did Steven Thompson. Show $$ should ALWAYS be paid if a fighter backs out due to their opponent missing weight.
Rhonda rousey had a -1250 betting odd favor over holly Holm. 350 is nothing
They’re trying to make Kayla the new 135-145 double champ 😅
Yup 😂
On to something !
Holly Holm has never missed weight, not in Boxing, not in LFA, not in UFC. Harrison once suggested she couldn't make 135; we'll see.
She never said she couldn’t make 135 , she said she couldn’t make 145
@@RcPlayer-tt2vw She made 145, so how's that?
Love Holly, but .... 1. Father time is undefeated 2. Kayla is the younger, more rounded skilled fighter 3. Long layoff
Kayla never fought anybody good, also her style matches well with Holly. I don't think it will be a walk in the park, since Holly can only easily beat overmatched opponents, but I give her the edge in this one.
“Albuquerque I’m still your Champion Baby!” Go Holly 🙏🏼 RIP Johnny
Kayla hasn't given any interviews since the announcement
Holly you are a legend! Give her hell.
She’s the best. Just seems like a true fighter. her and zhang are wbmf’s. hope they get that belt lol
Agreed 👍 if she misses weight then Holly doesn't fight her, period!
you edited the "period"? thats loww, even for a semi naked guy
@@lourencorp-ly6tn Yeah that's weird... and then his cringe profile pic not realizing he's over weight, eehhh
Holly is freaking awesome. Always cheer for her. Grounded American girl that can throw down. 👊🏻
I thought he was going to say "you have the look of someone who just got out of bed and hasn't showered yet. Am I right?"
I love this! Pure class, a champion and a legend. With much more to give.
Holly isn’t the same fighter she was five years ago , I think this fight if it goes ahead will be Hollys last fight win or lose and she will lose
Holly Holm will go down as one of the greats big respect 🫡
Holly is such an class act.
I love holly
Candidly, I think the UFC would apply enough pressure to make her take the fight, despite her reluctance.
if pressure is $, perhaps.
Luke Thomas' favourite word
If you keep asking UFC they use your star ⭐️ power as sacrificial lamb 🐑
@@rootiyriddle636 your wrong, and only one person has to say so to dispute your claim.
Not only does no one want this fight and many others for ufc 300, but now we might not get a fight at all. What a waste of space that could have been used for good and relevant match ups. And mma guru and R3d Pill mma own you ariel.
Anytime, anywhere, anyone. Holly is the Dan Henderson of women's mma
She's right for saying that.. She ain't the bad guy here.. Kayla isn't making the weight.. Let's hope holm gets the show money
Everybody in the comments hating on the fight but yet they gonna watch the fight lmao 😂
She probably wishes Kayla would have missed weight after that performance....
Holly's done..she just won't admit it..age is playing against her now the younger professionals will have the advantage.
UK watchers: She's got that Vicky Pollard look D.O.W.N.!!! 😅
Stop it m8. Come off it lad
Down to a T 😂 great spot.
Yeah but, no but yeah, but no ...
"Quit givin' me evils!!"
(I do not agree, VP is GROSS, lol!)
Don’t let MMA Guru see this
Guru’s blood pressure was concerning in that vid 😂
I love this woman!
Nunes wants to come back to beat Harrison....
"they announced it that day"
Tells us that MAYBE, they still dont have a main event

Why is this fight on 300. This fight sucks.
who tf u want at 300?

For female viewers!! ... you goofball
U guys cry over wmma too much it be one less fight if she misses and holly says no , how’s that better less time run store grab more Cheetos
Holly absolutely should not fight if Harrison fails to make weight !!!
Holly looks tired. Jon must've came over last night.
Don't know why they are matching Kayla, Harrison with Holy, Holm. Kayla is going to kill her. This matchup is for giving Kayla, an up rise to UFC. After Kayla, gets through with submitting Holy in the first or second round she will be match up with Pennington whom she will submit as well then there will be no one left in UFC to challenge Kayla.
And they’ll bring Amanda back , writing on the wall
Yes, but Kayla, will take Amanda down and submit her as well. Amanda, is easy to take down, Juliana did not have much trouble doing it.
@@mdiazdiaz5612your incorrect use of the comma is extremely irritating.
THANK you!! @@Milburt
Shes recovering from Jonny Bones blowin her back out 😂😂. Hes the GOAT!!! 😭😭😭
This fight may not happen. I dont see Kayla making 135, and after this interview, Holly will not fight Kayla if Kayla doesnt make weight. Both of these girls are legends......
I guess they've made Holly Holm the new Andre Arlovski of the women's 135 division, signing her to a long multi-fight contract in her forties...
Holly was robbed vs Ketlen Vera that really pissed me off the judges did that to a vet like Holly
Win or lose team holly. Always fun to watch. Keep up your foot work
Lmao he mentioned Meisha and didn’t mention Valentina 😂, wow..
I'll be routing for Holly but, I get the sense that this will be her retirement fight if she loses.
If Holly Holm had a better ground game she'd still be a top contender.
Where are you going to put the Fish
USADA is gone, so sure that the UFC might help Kayla get down to 135 really good. And they should also help Holm turn back the clock towards her prime years. Not making any speculations, but most people are either drinking milk with biscuits before going to bed or doing something else...
They got a new testing system thats harder lol tell us you know noting
@@NRC613 You actually believe that? Good for you. Whittaker literally said last week on this show that he hasn't been tested this year and in a very long time. He is fighting in 3 weeks time...
Thinking the same it’s no quaincidice
Holly looks old and beaten up. This is not a good match up for her. She shouldn't be taking fights like these at this stage of her career. Kayla is a monster and will maul her.
This is literally like Khamzat fighting Nate Diaz. A one sided mauling.
She needs to keep Jon out for a few months so she doesnt pop for Picograms. Rememebr Hunter told us about a female fighter who this happen to
Wow! Ariel helwani just cannot resist looking for drama
I love Holly Holm she has definitely has to be a future hall of famer.
G.O.A.T.
Kayla is like Rousey bang bang takedowns submission but Kayla's stand up bang bangs are unforgiving. But Holly you got this.
Great holly💪🏼
Kayla really looked bad at weigh in.
Holly really looked bad in the fight.
Holly is the Goat of the ufc 💯
If the ultimate weight cutting champion Khabib can go from around 200 pounds his walking around weight to around 185 fight camp weight down to nearly killing himself to 155 Kayla Harrison can do the same
She's too old. If she loses she'll probably get a title shot tho.
I don’t see Harrison making 135 with her lower body. It’s all muscle.
Unfortunately, Kayla is going to split her open with eldows 😢
Holly has ground game and deffence, but kayla on is another breed.
Although you can never count out Hollya kicks
I don't see how Harrison could possibly make 135 unless she's been slowly getting leaner for a long time now. she was like 170lbs
Lol i use just UA-cam, new phone set up is gr8
Holly has always been one of my Fav’s and a total bad ass , Holly said, something gave me a bit hope for Holly she has fought better quality people then Karla and she has stronger mental toughness, Karla lose once, and it took her a year to come back, and Holly has always come back with no fear that’s a big plus in favor of Holly. Holly is going have to go with best weapon and hit Karla were she has never been, leg hard leg kick to Karla legs, it’s like boxing attach the body and the head will fall. In this case attach the legs hard, and the head kick will come open. Holly is she gets you to the ground you will be toast😢 my one last concern Holly is usually more up beat, but in this interview was and of great sadness
You can make the argument that Holly Holm is the greatest female athlete of the 21st Century
Outside of Serena Williams, she doesn't have much competition for her resume
love holly !
12-0 betting on the last 3 cards and I'm willing to bet this fight doesnt happen with that caveat
She's not looking right to me, anyways I think she is a tough girl Pete knows
just cancel the fight just in case
45 years old and still fighting is crazy. She doesn't have anything else to do? Just retire already.
I'm not upset about this fight, also not super hyped. It's neutral
welcome her to the UFC Holly! Head kick KO!
I knew she'd say this and that's why I wasn't excited for this fight at all. Odds are Kayla will miss weight. So the fight is pointless even before it happens. Obviously Holly's choice and she has that right but if you ain't going to war over something that is likely to happen why book this fight
wtf? would you go late to work your first day , just to let anyone know, thats your thing, no chance of changing? why would a human such as kayla take uf organization like that?
The fact that besides Larissa Pacheco, Kayla has fought nothing but cans and people think she’s going to steamroll Holly. Kayla isn’t going to be some 155 monster in there. She’s literally dropping all the way to 135.
And when Pacheco was in the ufc she got destroyed by Germaine de randamie which just shows the levels when holly was able to stand toe to toe with gdr it won’t be an easy win for Harrison especially at a smaller weight class where she’ll be weaker
