Holly Holm put on one of her most impressive performances in her career dominating Mexico’s Irene Aldana in the UFC on ESPN 16 main event.
The judges’ scores were 50-44, 50-45 and 50-45 for a unanimous decision.
With the win, Holm has won consecutive fights for the first time since her legendary head kick knockout of Ronda Rousey made her 10-0.
“I”m still very green – I’m learning,” Holm said in her post-fight interview. “I’m putting it all together.”
The women’s bantamweight bout was the UFC on ESPN 16 main event at Flash Forum at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.
