Can Holly Holm shake the women’s MMA world to its core for the second time in a little more than two years? Time will soon tell.
Holm -- who dethroned Ronda Rousey in a monumental upset in November 2015 -- will challenge pound-for-pound mainstay Cristiane Justino for the undisputed Ultimate Fighting Championship women’s featherweight crown in the UFC 219 headliner on Saturday at T-Mobile Arena. In the co-main event, the unbeaten Khabib Nurmagomedov collides with former Ring of Combat champion Edson Barboza across three rounds at 155 pounds.
