Ronda Rousey says she'll fight again, but Holly Holm may want an interim bout

  • 9 years ago
Ronda Rousey says she will return to fight Holly Holm again.
Holm's manager, Lenny Fresquez, told The Times on Tuesday that he met with UFC officials Monday and received a proposal for a fight expected to be July 9 at UFC 200 at the new Las Vegas arena.
Venice's Rousey told ESPN she was "out on my feet from the very beginning," after sustaining a cut lip on a first-round punch from Holm that also knocked some of her teeth loose.
Fresquez said at his Monday meeting that UFC officials told him there are no immediately open dates for Holm's first title defense between now and July, although the manager said Holm could fight as soon as February.
Rousey, meanwhile, told ESPN she slept the entire flight home from Australia while on painkillers, then drove to a Texas ranch the next day with her boyfriend, UFC heavyweight Travis Browne, for a vacation.
