Kayla has the easiest path to a title in UFC history. 1 win gets you a title shot and it's against Raquel Pennington 😂😂😂😂

@DHawk12 2 ай бұрын

To be fair, the womens bw division is a bit of a wasteland since nunes retired. Raquel is the champion… Although I will admit that beating a 42 year old one-time champ isn’t overly impressive.

@malpal5825 2 ай бұрын

Besides Ronda, who had the worst gameplan ever to stand and strike with her, Holly has pretty much always choked in big fights. I had a feeling if she got a title shot and fought Raquel for a third time, despite having beaten her twice already, that she'd somehow lose that fight too. Story of her UFC career.

@hiraether6209 2 ай бұрын

@@malpal5825Holly was my spirit animal when she knocked out Ronda and I always rooted for her up until a couple years ago. The fact she has no belief in her striking despite being a decorated boxing champion and kickboxer, has no conviction or commitment in her attacks, against opponents who are way worse strikers, started to really get on my nerves. Putting on boring performances where her entire strategy was to hold fighters against the cage and do no damage. Did it to Cyborg, Pennington, on and on, tried to do it against everyone else. ONLY 1 FINISH IN THE NINE YEARS since she knocked out Ronda, and her only other good performance was against Megan Anderson because she showed off a total evolution in her grappling. Other than that she is infuriating to watch. I was looking forward to Kayla destroying her and hoped she would retire. She's a sport killer

I like Holly but she's always been second place. Overconfident Ronda who tried to box with Holly was the biggest win of her career. Never defended her belt, never got gold again. In a near decade inside the UFC the longest win streak she's ever had was 3 wins. She fought a lot of the best but lost to almost all of them.

Let's hold and pump those breaks Harrison for a second. I am not discounting her credintials but this is your first fight in the UFC, this isn't PFL or Bellitor. You have to earn your way to a title fight, not taking on a "gate keeper." Win a couple of more times, then we can talk about title fights.
