Germaine de Randamie made history on Saturday night at UFC 208 by becoming the inaugural UFC women’s featherweight champion. The Dutch fighter fought former women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm in a five-round contest, where she ended up winning via unanimous decision.
The fight was marred by a little controversy, when de Randamie threw and landed punches on Holm after the bell that signaled the round’s end had already sounded. It happened on two separate instances during the fight, where presiding referee Todd Anderson did not take a point away from de Randamie.
