UFC 184‘s co-main event takes place in the women’s bantamweight division with the debut of a highly touted former boxing champion. Holly Holm steps into the Octagon for the first time and will try to make her mark against Raquel “Rocky” Pennington.
Pennington is currently ranked No. 12 in the official UFC divisional rankings, and without one UFC fight to her credit Holm checks in right behind at No. 13. It is an important fight in the division that could propel the winner into the top 10.
Holm‘s boxing career was highly successful, but MMA is a whole new game. She has a perfect professional record of 7-0. Pennington will be a step up in competition for her and show the world where she currently stands.
Will she justify the hype, or will Pennington derail all the talk of Holm being a potential contender?
