It was a perfect performance that we saw from Holly Holm in her dominating win to take the UFC women’s bantamweight championship belt from Ronda Rousey at UFC 193 in November. However, Holm revealed her feelings with FOX Sports on how she felt she did that night she shocked the world. “I don’t feel that was my full potential,” Holm told FOX Sports at UFC 194 when speaking about her fight with Rousey. “I feel like if that’s my full potential, then I should retire because I don’t feel like I’m going to get better.

It will mark the first time Ronda Rousey will appear in front a live crowd since losing to Holly Holm at UFC 193. Rousey is scheduled to host Saturday Night Live on Jan. 23, which will mark her first major television appearance since losing as well. Rousey has made an effort to stay away from media interviews and cameras since her devastating knockout loss to Holm back in November. She has had one highlighted interview with ESPN magazine, and aside from that has been rather quiet on her social media with hints of unhappiness in some of her posts.

For quite some time leading up to Fedor Emelianenko’s MMA return on New Year’s Eve there was speculation as to who ‘The Last Emperor’ would be fighting. While he ultimately ended up fighting and defeating Jaideep Singh, the first man who was named as Emelianenko’s opponent, apparently the fight was offered to retired kickboxing legend and WSOF President Ray Sefo.
