Welcome to the UFC @_HOLLYHOLM
5:33 PM - 10 Jul 2014

UFC president Dana White tweeted the news Thursday afternoon.

Long considered the best pound-for-pound female boxer in the world, Albuquerque's Holm held a 33-2-3 boxing record before moving to MMA in 2011. Unbeaten in seven pro bouts with six wins by knockout the Jackson-Winkeljohn MMA product will now look to fight the best in the game in the UFC, with her eventual goal being a shot at champion Ronda Rousey.

I am excited about this! Give Ronda some competition. Won't be long if cyborg can make weight at 135 she will be there too

for those of u who havent see her, look on youtube, she poses a real threat for rhonda, her striking is outstanding and she has powerful kicks and throws her punches and kicks with bad intentions.. she has power..... and she was a womens boxing champion before making the jump to MMA

I look forward to seeing Ronda eat some humble pie .
Been waiting for Cyborg .
Tell me Ronda isn't always the larger girl in every match she's been in ?

Bro I just don't know if cyborg can make weight. She has struggled cutting to 145 now to 135. We will see how she does in invicta if she makes weight. Probably Better for her to have a test run before hitting the UFC
