Ronda Rousey hasn’t looked back since becoming the first female fighter to sign with the UFC and it’s clear she’ll need to be seriously injured to give this one up. Even a dislocated jaw couldn’t stop her from claiming a first round submission with an armbar on Liz Carmouche and the same move eventually took down Miesha Tate at UFC 168; she’s not known as “The Arm Collector” for nothing.
Rousey again defended her UFC Women’s Bantamweight title at UFC 170 with devastating knee to the body of Sara McMann and took just 16 seconds to knockout Alexis Davis at UFC 175, breaking her own thumb in the process. She then set the record for shortest match in UFC championship history when collecting another arm against Cat Zingano in just 14 seconds at UFC 182 and won her sixth Ultimate Fighting Championship bout against Bethe Correia by knockout 34 seconds into the first round at UFC 190.
She has spent just 1077 seconds in the octagon, that’s an average of 2 minutes and 59 seconds, so there is a case for this one ending early.

Despite the odds being stacked against her, it could be foolish to overlook Holly Holm as The Preacher’s Daughter is unbeaten in 9 MMA fights to date. Of those 9, 6 have been by knockout, so again this one probably won’t go the distance.
She made a winning debut with a split decision against Raquel Pennington at UFC 184, but there were no doubts at UFC Fight Night 71 earlier this year, where she won by unanimous decision against Marion Reneau to earn this Bantamweight title shot and she certainly doesn’t seem fazed by the task at hand.
“I know what I’m up against, I know I’m up against the most dominant female fighter and I know I have my hands full, but I know I’m perfectly capable” said Holm in a pre-fight interview before continuing with “I like that people still doubt me, that just makes me know that it’s time to show what I’m capable of”
