Holly Holm reacts to Ronda Rousey beating Gina Carano, highly doubts Rousey ‘would ever want a rematch’
Holly Holm, currently competing for a lightweight boxing title, weighed in on Ronda Rousey's recent submission victory over Gina Carano at an MVP MMA event. Carano, returning from an extended layoff, faced Rousey in the main event but was submitted in just 17 seconds—a stunning conclusion to a highly anticipated matchup. Holm praised Carano for accepting the challenge on short notice despite her long absence from competition. While some had speculated about Holm potentially facing the winner given her new partnership with MVP as her boxing promoter, Holm downplayed the likelihood of a Rousey rematch. Holm famously knocked out Rousey with a head kick in 2015 in one of MMA's biggest upsets, a victory that remains a defining moment of her career. However, she expressed doubt that Rousey would ever be interested in running it back, suggesting the chapter between them remains closed despite the earlier offer of a rematch.
