Kayla has the easiest path to a title in UFC history. 1 win gets you a title shot and it's against Raquel Pennington 😂😂😂😂

To be fair, the womens bw division is a bit of a wasteland since nunes retired. Raquel is the champion… Although I will admit that beating a 42 year old one-time champ isn’t overly impressive.

Besides Ronda, who had the worst gameplan ever to stand and strike with her, Holly has pretty much always choked in big fights. I had a feeling if she got a title shot and fought Raquel for a third time, despite having beaten her twice already, that she'd somehow lose that fight too. Story of her UFC career.

@@malpal5825Holly was my spirit animal when she knocked out Ronda and I always rooted for her up until a couple years ago. The fact she has no belief in her striking despite being a decorated boxing champion and kickboxer, has no conviction or commitment in her attacks, against opponents who are way worse strikers, started to really get on my nerves. Putting on boring performances where her entire strategy was to hold fighters against the cage and do no damage. Did it to Cyborg, Pennington, on and on, tried to do it against everyone else. ONLY 1 FINISH IN THE NINE YEARS since she knocked out Ronda, and her only other good performance was against Megan Anderson because she showed off a total evolution in her grappling. Other than that she is infuriating to watch. I was looking forward to Kayla destroying her and hoped she would retire. She's a sport killer

Really happy for her. Love her story. Inspirational! Great mum. Good woman. Wish her all the very best. 🎉 btw She gets the first bonus. At this stage performance of the night.
Not a matter of if but when in terms of Kayla's championship aspirations. Absolutely beautiful woman inside and out ❤️
No matter what happens, she can always say she came in and beat a former UFC champion in her first fight. She was UFC caliber in PFL and she just proved all the haters wrong.

Congrats Kayla. You’ve certainly earned it!
Kayla for the title shot‼️ Fans may say it’s too quick and she hasn’t earned it yet. But it will be an amazing fight and every one will watch it and that’s what the UFC is all about.
Young Holly makes this a interesting fight

She fought a former champion out of her prime. Come on now, Kayla.
The womens bantamweight division is probably the worst right now. Easy work for Kayla to be champ.
Congratulations welcome to the ufc
She looked like Akuma from Streetfighter in the Octagon tonight
Kayla is all class and very happy she had a good night. So happy she is getting her chance to shine in the UFC.
I've been waiting a long time for this, anyone who thought there'd be any other result 🤣 LFG Kayla!
What one does outside the octagon should account for something imo
Beast mode
After seeing that she will be the champ 100%. She will fight for the title next Dana will not deny her.
Give the belt to kayla's chemist
Kayla is so charimastic that makes me impossible to hate her because she won to Holly 😂. Im such a new fan.
Literally just give her the belt already

What a fight yo, can't wait to see her again! 🙌
On that first throw Kayla rolled through just a little too much like in like she would in Judo and ended up getting reversed, something she can correct but it takes some getting used to.
Great fight. Holly put her to the test and she was able to overcome this obstacle due to clen eating anavar forgetting to tren as hard as possible.
Really wish Nunes was still around to see Kayla fight her. It almost seems like a foregone conclusion that she'll steamroll Pennington.
Want to see her doping control

She should go "take it" from Miles Teller.

Result would have been the same and probably even faster. I love Holly, but nobody in the division is capable of rag-dolling her like that.
Holmes needs to retire, she’s just a gate keeper at this point and has taken a lot of beatings for a women as gate keeper

I like Holly but she's always been second place. Overconfident Ronda who tried to box with Holly was the biggest win of her career. Never defended her belt, never got gold again. In a near decade inside the UFC the longest win streak she's ever had was 3 wins. She fought a lot of the best but lost to almost all of them.

That was a very impressive victory and it showed she belong in the league of nunes, Shevchenko, Joanna. I feel she deserve to fight for the belt next.
Benavidez really 😂

Let's go champ
Kayla should be here 6th years ago...
No ugly stupid tattoos, so refreshing!

Let's hold and pump those breaks Harrison for a second. I am not discounting her credintials but this is your first fight in the UFC, this isn't PFL or Bellitor. You have to earn your way to a title fight, not taking on a "gate keeper." Win a couple of more times, then we can talk about title fights.
