The Ultimate Fighting Championship will be visiting Singapore on Saturday with an intriguing fight card. Anchoring the bill, which goes down at Singapore Indoor Stadium in Kallang, is a matchup between a former world champion and one-time world title challenger.
Holly Holm, among the few all-time great women boxers, has fallen on hard times inside the Octagon. “The Preacher’s Daughter” sent shockwaves through the sport of mixed martial arts in November 2015 when she tore apart then-unbeaten Ronda Rousey before head-kicking her into oblivion to capture the UFC women’s bantamweight crown. But Holm was choked out by Miesha Tate, lost a unanimous decision to Valentina Shevchenko and then a hotly-disputed points loss to Germaine de Randamie.
