Despite the boos, Holly Holm said things went according to plan against Bethe Correia at UFC Singapore.

Holly Holm's headlining women's bantamweight bout against Bethe Correia didn't go down too well with the local fans in Singapore.

'The Preacher's Daughter' and 'The Pitbull' were drowned with a chorus of boos due to their inactivity in the first two rounds. At one point, veteran referee Marc Goddard warned the two fighters for their lack of urgency and told Holm and Correia that they needed to kick things up a gear.

Holm must have got the message, because in the third round she crumpled Correia with a perfectly-timed head kick and scored one of the most devastating KO's of the year.
