Video After The Jump
New UFC Bantamweight Champion Holly Holm recently sat down with Larry King for her first extensive interview since winning the belt.
She talks about beating Ronda Rousey, being the underdog going in, losing 2 fights in her professional boxing career, the scuffle with Rousey at the weigh in, not touching gloves before the fight and reveals what she said after knocking out the former champion.
"I really admire you for being such a great, dominant champion." Holm told Rousey in the Octagon. "A lot of us wouldn't be here without you. So, I appreciate you."
Holm also talked about the encouraging words she received from Jon Jones following the match and responds to former WWE wrestler Taz saying the fight was fixed.
"No MMA fighting, especially with the UFC is ever going to be set up," Holm said. "There's a reason why Dana [White] puts out those knockout bonuses and those performance of the night bonuses. Because he wants people to be motivated to go in there and perform well."
There's much more to this interesting interview. Watch it in full below.
