With arguably the biggest upset in all of MMA, in which Holly Holm defeated Ronda Rousey in a one sided affair, it seems that the women’s bantamweight division has seemingly risen from the dead. Before UFC 193, the talks were always about who would be next in line for Ronda and who could be the one to even give her a fight. As her dominance continued, journalists and analysts just said how long they thought Rousey’s opponent would last. With the huge upset, there is now a whole new life in the 135lb division — interesting match ups, new contenders, and a plethora of stylistic differences make this division seem completely brand new.
