Holly Holm is class. Ronda Rousey was a bad loser I'm glad Holly beat her.
Took Ronda over 7 years to talk about the loss; and it was all excuses. Sad example of a champion.
😂😂😂
Yup and never defended the title.
She was extremely arrogant i'm happy af she got knocked tf out
not just a bad loser ronda was a bad winner too im soo happy karma really hit her like a truck ..." created the most efficient fighting style that's ever existed...Sometimes it still stings a little bit that I'm not recognized as the greatest ever when I know I am" 😂😂 right.....
Holly knocked out Rhonda again with that answer.
Lol
Hahaha
😂 But she's still Buster Douglas
@@theprolificnetwork4670Nope. Difference is Buster wasnt a better fighter than Mike, Mike just had an off night. And Ronda was no Mike Tyson anyway. Holly is and was just better than Ronda plain and simple.
@@theprolificnetwork4670You’re tripping. Holly outclassed Ronda she looked like a helpless amateur.
2:15 for Rhonda question
All I care about. Thank you for saving so much time in life.
Thank you, soldier 🤝
@wylliamalfaro I dont think 2 whole minutes constitutes as "so much time."
You da real mvp
@@wylliamalfaro Yeah, like you really have so much going on 🙄👍
I rewatch Holm vs rousey about 4 times a year.
It’s a great lesson in humility
I love rewatching bisping ko rockhold haha never gets old
It was great after Ronda wouldn't bump gloves with holly like holly wasn't worthy & Ronda got smoked
It's the greatest win.
@@KeithRozzell-ip2jx She thought she was an elite boxer 🤣
Fucking love Holly. Perfect answer about Ronda.
Gay
@@lucasdotcommyoure a beta gay mate
Rhonda should have rematch her
@@Deimian676 Ronda wanted no part of that.
@@L.Ron.Hoyabembe Ronda fucked up switched camps and tried to become a striker when her ground game was beyond any other female at the time. If she stuck to ground game her whole career she'd have been way more legendary. She'd have destroy Holms that night that's just a fact. Ronda was not a striker, and trying to stand against a champion boxer/kick boxer was wild. It'd have been similar to Khabib trying to just stand With Conor for 5 rounds. Conor would have eventually knocked Khabib out. That's just a fact.
Whenever I'm having a bad day I'll watch Holly beat the living hell out of Rhonda, cheers me up every time.
Why, it wasn't impressive. You have a World class champion female boxer/kickboxer vs a nearly pure submission artist who's coaches convinced her to box. Deep down she knows she shouldn't have switched camps and coaches and tried to strike with Holy. It was dumb. LIke I've said. It'd be like Khabib completely disregarding his ground game and trying to stand with Conor for 5 rounds. Do you think Khabib would survive 5 rounds of striking against Conor? I sure don't. That's basically what thhat fight was. Rondas ground game was leagues above anyone else at the time. Holmes ground game is notoriously dog shit. Holms is a decision fighter that's been submitted multiple times. I love Holms dont get me wrong. I actually was gonna bet on that fight, but knowing that Ronda swapped camps I didn't. Glad I didn't.
@@UsaRubber Bro you should watch the fight back. Ronda got holly down and had an attempt at an arm bar. Holly defended, and even the last min of round 1 took Ronda down. She beat her on the feet and neutralized Ronda's grappling.
@@ryansiroproductions youre entirely not wrong. But its very hard to say the couch swap didnt affect her. She had 7 armbar victories before that. When did she switch camp/coach? After the first ko or second ko victory i cant remember. But she tried to be a striker when she was never that. I mean she destroyed tate. Who went on to win 5 in a row and beat holm for the belt. Ronda ruined her own career listening to some dumb ass striking coach imo.
I agree, watching that ko makes your day. I too keep going back to watch that head kick and every single time it is such a pleasure 😂😅
@@UsaRubber Was she not with Edmond the whole time?? Yea I think after she knocked out Beth was around the time where everyone was gassing up her striking. Her judo still is probs the best we have ever seen to her credit.
I particularly liked the way Rhonda used her head to block an onslaught of punches from Amanda Nunes.
Now that's a skill you don't see very often. Kudos to Rhonda for that !
You write like you’re in the perfect condition to be launched from the Grand Canyon to a blazing demise, and not even give a good goshdangit.
@@hotredtiger316 Not with you Sir. Care to expand on that comment please ?
🤣🤣Rhonda was impersonating a piñata again in that fight.
So that’s why you write like you got beaten stupid in the brain,@@julioochoa8613.
Thank you Holly for one of the best schadenfreude in sporting history.
A better fighter, and a better human being.
She isn't called the Preachers Daughter for no reason.
They are both great people.
How is she the better fighter when she didn’t defend her belt once?
@@H.K.5 Well- She is the better fighter because they fought, and she won. Easily.
Soo, yeah.
& naturally gorgeous, without any makeup!
I wish Holly would have called Ronda out.. "Let's do it again, come get some."
She's too classy for that. And she knows she is better. No need for a call out.
She’s never been a heel type fighter.
There’s no need to. Those who brag it, don’t have it.
i love how the "300" is giving holly bunny ears lol
it doesn’t tho
It does tho!!! ❤takes a week to know a.weeb xD
You watch too much weeb stuff if you noticed and cared about that
@@seldom_bucket wat is weeb, i not a weirdo
Hehehe, good job noticing that!
One of the most loved and humble fighter, we love you!
Holly always a class act 👌
Then why did her husband divorce her?
💯
@@hotredtiger316 because you were born.
Unlike you,@@HumbleHurricane, I wouldn’t stick a stolen police baton in Holly Holm’s face. Then again, if you wanna lose yours while attempting to violate her, who am I to stop ya.
@@hotredtiger316 🤷🏽♂️..people get divorced, it happens in half of all marriages. Don't know what that has to do with her sportsmanship as a competitor.
We love Holly here in NM ! She's real, respectful to her opponents, and straight up bad ass.
I haven’t watched HH do press since RR. It’s amazing to see that despite all of her accomplishments since then she’s still just as kind & respectful. HH is a true class act & role model for young female fighters.
Damn Holly Holms is 43 years old and is still fighting! Such an inspiration!
Seriously. I still remember seeing her boxing fight billboards around Abq back in like 2005. Still in the game. Very impressive.
She's a beast. I've met her a few times and she's solid as a rock.
So the 50 other people fighting in 40s doesn’t matter. You just want to simp on Holmes
I agree but she looked bad in her last fight and loss.
Holly is and has always been a class act.a great fighter.
So professional, so cordial, and the real deal.
Rhonda writing a book that she was the best lol. Holly sent her to the shadow realm.
She was the best at one point. She and Gina were the pioneers of WMMA.
@@Jumperman12macshe was the best until actual high level female mixed martial artists like Holm and Nunes made their way to the UFC, then she was exposed as a grappler with zero striking ability and very very low fight IQ
@@jonbradley4044yeah her striking was absolutely atrocious.
holly can't get shit without ronda
@@jonbradley4044Yeah, but Holm & Nunes also lost to fighters Rousey beat.
Ronda is everything you tell a fighter not to be like, holly is everything you tell a fighter to aspire to be like, humble in victory and defeat, pure class inside and outside the cage.
Ronda is much like Conor McGregor then.
Hollys calmness comes from her faith! I love people like her I have met many male and female in my life time that are solid and rooted in truth! My kind of people! I wish her the best and pray for her health and happiness! You go girl!
What truth
Amen ✝️💕🤙
@@richardcharleston2547Obviously, you don’t know!
@@richardcharleston2547Jesus
@@flex863 nobody knows the ‘truth’, you only have people that choose to belief different things because it makes it easier for them to make it through life.
After all this time thats EXACTLY the response about "Rhonda's the best" you would expect from Holly! Pure class through and through. Imagine the same question posed from the opposite side with Rhonda and how she would have responded.... yeah Ill take Holly and her attitude any day!
To imagine she is my age.
Always been a fan of Holly.
She a Baaaad Women.
In the best way!
Now THIS is the way to mix a Q&A. Soundwise, there is a house feed and a recording feed. So many times you can't hear the questions. Or only the camera mic is used. Somebody did their homework. The mix is great. The eq is great. Kudos to to the AV crew.👍
Holly Holm is amazing on so many levels. Thanks for your heart and talent.
Ronda actually wrote a book saying she is the best ever?😂😂😂 Amanda absolutely destroyed her and snatched her soul in that fight, and it was extremely satisfying to see.
Facts. Rousey just isn't a very decent person.
And talking shit about WWE after fans booed her out the company
And I think she also wrote in that book about abusing her ex boyfriend
@@jetla22WWE is garbage though
@@George18798Vince is horrible, the company is a product of his mind and his yes men.
I've always liked Holly. Just a genuine, honest and considerate person. Hope she knocks Kayla off her high horse the same way she did Ronda.
Holly is still a class act and awesome.
Holly, you don't even have to address Ronda. You put such a fear in her mind that is there until this day. So bad in fact, that her career ended as a direct result. You did what you did as the better fighter that night. It is what it is. Thank you for giving the fans one of the most spectacular fighting performance ever.
Ronda retired for mental n physical health, also she accomplished everything and put women into the ufc, she did more in 3 yrs then Holly's 25yr career LOL and holly was slept by fighters ronda dominated in minutes, ronda may have lost to a 20yr decorated striker n boxing champion but holly was running while ronda was taking steps forward the whole match
@@veeyan6882Holly has never been slept. She’s been choked out but never slept. So because Ronda was stupid and ran forward with reckless abandon is Holly’s fault?
@@veeyan6882 lol ronda burner account found
@veeyan6882 Ronda was dumb, plain and simple. Suddenly thinking she could "out box Mayweather."
She's done nothing but cry and make weak excuses since. She's pathetic and anyone who sides with her is in that same category.
@@veeyan6882that’s what you call creating space. She did exactly what a world class striker should do against a one trick pony. She picked her shots beautifully.
this women is so skillful, smart, elegant and beautiful.
Pure class. Love this girl
A true warrior and OG of the sport
og??? no lol
@italianwaterice9594 she's been doing it for 10 yrs and has fought everyone all the best fighters in the world she fought all the most elite fighters in the world for that reason alone id consider her a og
@@canadat4380Rhonda made you watch women’s mma weather you liked watching her fight or jus to hate you still watched
Much respect to this legend. Go Holly!
Ronda had way easier opponents on her reign to the title. She wasn’t ready for the new class of fighters
She probably could have taken on the new class of fighters, if her coach, herself and everyone else didn't lie about how great of a striker she was.
She was good at one thing and then suddenly decided "I'll do something the opposite against people better at it than me!". Dumb idea, was dumb from the get go and why I knew she'd lose.
"She can out box Mayweather." Gtfooh
I don’t think that’s really the case. While I’m no fan of hers, she did crush a lot of the biggest names at the time in women’s MMA when she got to the UFC.
@@mikeyswoosh7209 women’s mma was garbage back then
@@SuperMontsta I'll do something the opposite against people better at it than me
huh
@@andrewcollazo6825you can call the women garbage but she fought all of them in her prime and dominated. Money and fame caused her too lose motivation. If Rhonda's prime was now she'd be better than she was. Women's Olympic judo was not a cakewalk back then like you say MMA was. Everyone either likes or hates her a decade later, that alone says she was polarizing and great.
I love this woman
Holly Holm is forever. 💚
Holly playing with her hair before answering ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️
What an absolute sweetheart,
My fave female fighter ever and an added bonus was she sent Rhonda Flousey to the shadow realm. I will forever love her for that, plus she is the standard for how a fighter should conduct one's self.
We love you holly. Such a humble respectful champ that's always game for war
she's such a class act it's almost absurd
I love listening to Holly interviews. She talks well informed because she knows how things are and what they can become !
Holly a legend 💪
always respectful and classy
I really like Holly. Down to earth, doesn't talk smack...and a really nice person...and a great fighter!!
Her class & well spoken manner makes her more beautiful
can't wait for a holly holm book!
Love Holly.Such a classy person and fighter.😎🥊🥋
Holly is a beautiful person inside and outside.. golden soul! Her character is that of an angel!
Goddamn it, she's such a wonderful person to hear talk.
Humble and proud at the same time.
I aspire to be like this woman.
Keep it up Holly, you're great!
Rhonda insisting she should be known as the best is so funny .
She’s easily in the conversation. I respect Holly as a fighter and person but she doesn’t come close to Ronda in terms of accomplishments.
@@H.K.5 i respect ronda as a fighter but also, she doesn't come close to being top 15 of all time.
@@macgmol159 Maybe compared to the male fighters (I choose not to compare them anyway) but she’s easily in the top 3 as far as females go.
@@H.K.5 you are right
But she called herself the best "fighter" ever so
@@macgmol159 She was the best before Nunes tbf
Holly baptised Rhonda and gave her a proper schooling 👌
Early on in highschool wrestling I ran through a lot of guys within a minute until one day I faced a guy who could actually wrestle and he beat me easily. Winning quick wasn't a strategy of mine, I was just up against low level competition.
Rhonda had a great advantage in grappling since women's fighting was relatively new, and she could strike well enough to convince herself she was a gifted striker.
Time to shock the world one more time! Let's go, Holly! So proud and admiring of how she carries herself. A champ in and out of the cage/ring. Go get it, Hol! We all are hoping for a victory on Saturday.
Trash can Rhonda was a one hit wonder arm
bar was the only thing the trash can had Holly had the greatest head kick KO ever! FRR!
There better ones
@@aplias20 For sure! Leons headkick over Usman was WAY better, and same for Gaethjes over DP..... crazy that both of those happened in Salt Lake City too ✌️
Ronda was lucky to compete in an era where WMMA was in development, she would have never become a champ in the current era. Also the greatest Head kick KO goes to Gonzaga vs Cro cop.
@@ichimaxru
Not anymore. Leon vs Usman is now the greatest head kick in the UFC.
@@ichimaxru What’s so good about the current era? The best female fighters are in the lower weight classes but 135 and 145 both suck.
Holly pure class and taught Ronda that pride comes before a fall and there is always someone younger, hungrier and better 💪
Pure class! Holly possesses the skills, she just needs to let her killer instinct kick it and not be so gun shy. Hoping she takes the W!
Pure class 👏
What a class act! Good luck Holly, we routing for you!
What a perfect answer Holly! Well done
Gotta love Holly!!!
It's understandable she ended her career in 10 seconds
If Ronda had had any standup (or any standup defense), she would still be undefeated...
This is actually trueeee!
She wasn't just better she was levels above rousey
Holly's my favorite women mma fighter.
Holm's answer was beyond PROFESSIONAL!😃👍
Rooting for holly 👏🏼 she’s a real one
Holly Holm’s diss track is humble as fuck.
Rhonda couldn’t even punch properly
The definition of a Class Act.
This woman is always so respectful and humble.
Amazing fighter. Kudos to you Beautiful.
Keep punching.
Enough!! 🇵🇷❤️
Let’s go holly!!! I hope she gets the win this weekend
Wtf? She trained with Cyborg? Wow! I always rooted for Holy after beating Ronda. She a sexy chick and kicks ass along with that laid back chick attitude.....GO Holms!!!
I bet you had a “concussion” for the Amanda fight too… lol. No one doubts her dominance but she was a sincere jerk to people. Ronda had the biggest ego of any female fighter and disappeared/went into hiding after losing. Truly sad that her personal value was that fragile .
but but she said she created the most efficient fighting style that's ever existed
She was raised by a psychotic single mom who told her all her life she was worthless unless she won, her mind was not set up for loss and that’s why she won’t ever accept that holly, Amanda and in general the sort of women’s mma passed her by. She’ll go to her grave talking about mouth guards and concussions despite everyone knowing her coach was putting delusion into her head about her striking ability and her movie “career” removed her from hard training. Ronda is pathetic.
I doubt her dominance for sure. Women's division was trash back then as compared to now.
@@aservantinbabylon It’s still trash apart from flyweight.
Every division when it starts has someone who is above the competition which makes them great but the competition is also limited as the people around that weight are trying to figure out just like when mma started. Rhonda is a legend she was greater then the competition but the competition was new.
Love Mommy Holly.
Bro chill out
She looks about 50, calm down.
i still remember seeing her stand up and screaming HEAD KICK!!!! lol then BOOM! its over
I love that she is very noble, honest and overall Great!!!!
You tell her Holly !!!! Some just can't accept anything ... All the best in yr next bout .. We're cheering for ya 👏 💓 🙌 GO GET THAT BELT BACK !!! YOU GOT THIS ...
💪
Personally if Ronda never changed camps and coaches and stuck to her wrestling she would have absolutely DOMINITATED Holm. Why she wanted to stand a box with a champion boxer/kick boxer is absolutely wild, Ronda forgot where she came from and how she got where she was, her new coaches convinced her she could beat anyone anywhere, She should have stuck to ground game. Still holds one of the fastest submissions victories in MMA/UFC History, which is vastly harder than a quick Strike TKO/KO. Technique > Puncher Chance
That being said. Holy is a beast. Unfortunately If anyone Thinks she is beating Kayla Harrison you're out of you're mind. Kayla is actually nasty, Serious striker, serious ground game. And Holy is out of her mind if she thinks she could take Nunes in any era. She's 42. This is a great retirement fight for her, Unfortunately she's gonna get her ass beat bad.
Wholeheartedly disagree. The 😮beating wouldn’t have been so one sided, but a year or two in a proper camp wouldn’t have allowed Rousey to close the striking gap between her and Holm let alone Nunes..Both Holm & Numes are more athletic than Rousey, so even with added wrestling, , she would still probably struggle to take them down.. The disparity in their respective took kits is too great. With the right camp, Rousey might have made the fight with Holm a little more interesting, but she would still lose. Nunes smashes her no matter what. The first time Nunes touches her, that fight is over. If you honestly believe that with a different coach she could’ve won that fight, you are out of your mind. Even Rousey doesn’t bring up Nunes. She got smoked plain and simple.
Could listen to holly all day. No agenda just honest mature answers. Doesn’t mess about in the ring either 🥂
Take note, Rhonda! This is what class and humility looks like.
Does holly seem like a Kristin wig character 😂
Like a william defoe character....
Nerds!!!!
**( SAYS-THE • °MiLLeniaL AND-THE • °Boomer ! )** 😮😂😮
dam, I wonder why she is still single and not married she is very attractive 🤔
Jon Jones stole her heart. He's her boss
She has a manly face and she’s hit the wall
@tlz124 dam,... well, that'll explain it.
Interest. My comment vanished ?
She's married
Answered like true consumate professional 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I don't think I've ever felt happier for a fighter than I did for Holly that night.
The funny thing is Ronda had the tools and the style to beat Holly, but her horrible gameplan and coaching cost her in that fight. She stood with the striker. Her takedown attempts were weak because they were out of desperation, not part of her plan. Even with her ego and over confidence, at that time Holly was still a very winnable fight for Ronda had she fought smart and played to her strengths.
Nah she didn’t. Holly moves to much and Ronda’s takedowns involve grabbing the upper body she doesn’t shoot wrestling she’s a judoka. Holly was winning that fight as long as she did exactly as she did
@@CarlosRen1776 Maybe, but that win was the highlight of her entire career and she went 1-4 in her next 5 fights after and despite being gifted a title shot anytime she won a single fight, she's never touched gold again. Not hard to imagine a focused Ronda with a better gameplan could beat her. I mean her career record in the UFC is 8 wins and 6 losses. Might be 8 and 7 soon. I like Holly but she has always been very beatable.
Rhonda was a 1 trick pony..Holm is multi talented.
@@shawnsdr3406 I agree but even by Holly's own admission in this very interview, Holly was mostly just a striker who had only 2 fights in the UFC at the time she fought Ronda. Both were fighters who primarily used just one aspect of MMA. Holly was the striker and Ronda was the grappler. Ronda's terrible gameplan and ego led her to fight Holly in her strongest area and out of Ronda's best area. Had she not done that, Ronda had a much better chance of winning the fight and had the tools to do so.

Well said Holly humble and class goes a long way
I was a supporter of Ronda Rousey right until she wouldn’t tap gloves with Holm. Then I wanted her to lose and I was happy. Full circle.
Class act.
She is an awesome package. Freaky smart, focused, self-aware, articulate, confident but with true humility. Magnanimous, infinitely giving of credit and praise for others. THIS is the champion every sport should have.
Awesome fighter, awesome person … RESPECT!
Holly knocked her into another dimension. Holly is a role model, what a career
I love Holly Holmes, she’s such a class act!! Better fighter, better human being 💪🏾🙏🏾🩷
I love the way she speaks. It’s like a soothing motherly voice lol
I believe in Holm! Will always be a fan. Go Champ!...
Respect. This video should be labeled differently. We all fans and would have watched just the same without the clickbait label. I get it but..
Holly is one of my favorites, solid career all things considered.
Class act from Holly, she reminds me of the British fighters with the respectful honesty.
(Before anyone brings up Paddy scousers don't count)
Us scousers don’t claim to even be part of England FuckTHEtories
I respect that holly acknowledges Rhonda’s reign, and that’s what makes her win so much more valuable, and I think holly is right, Rhonda can’t accept she couldn’t beat holly
Old timers will remember a British heavyweight named Henry Cooper. A tough fighter who was also a gentleman. Holly Holm has a similar quality--you can admire her as a lady, as a fighter, or both.
Pure class from Holly
