Holly Holm fully expects to be back inside the octagon by 2023, and has even named Meisha Tate as her next possible.
Holm has been recovering from surgery after her fight with Ketlen Veira back in May. The former UFC champion ultimately loss that fight by split decision, but still feels as if she did enough that night to get her hand raised. Holm will be looking to get back inside the octagon around early 2023, and she hopes to be back in the gym training within the next few months as well.
Holm has had a history of injures that have required surgeries. Back in 2021 she had to have surgery, as her kidney was giving her some issues. That forced her to pull out of her fight with Julianna Pena, and was part of the reason she had only one fight over the span of 19 months. Holm also required surgery back in 2018, when she tore her meniscus and was forced out the entire year.
“I’m open and ready to fight anyone, but it would come full circle with Miesha [Tate],” Holm said in an interview with Brett Okamoto. “I know she went down in weight in her last fight and I don’t know what her thoughts would be on coming back up [to bantamweight], but if that’s a fight I could get back and avenge a loss, I’d love to. It’s not the only thing I’m looking at, but it’s at the top of the list.” (Transcribed by ESPN)
Holm was the first person to beat Ronda Rousey, by knocking her out with a vicious head kick. Tate would then take Holm’s championship belt away from her, by submitting her in Holm’s first title defense. Holm said that it would be nice for the story to come “full circle” as she would get another chance to beat Tate.

Former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Miesha Tate has assessed Holly Holm’s performance at UFC Vegas 55, and explained why her game plan played right into the hands of Ketlen Vieira.
In this past weekend’s main event, two 135-pound contenders collided, both of whom were looking to secure their place behind Amanda Nunes in the queue for a shot at reigning bantamweight queen Julianna Peña.
After five rounds of action, which saw the #2-ranked Holm record an abundance of control time against the cage, the Brazilian fell on the right side of a split decision. While the verdict caused a fare amount of controversy, most acknowledge that Vieira’s offense secured her at least two rounds, with a couple others being close enough to swing either way.
In the aftermath of the event, some fans and pundits criticized Holm’s strategy, which seemed solely committed to control against the fence, which, as per the scoring criteria, is not credited in the eyes of the judges without some effective offense behind it.
Now, one of Holm’s former opponents has become the latest to suggest that the former champ’s clinch-heavy approach was a mistake.
Taking to Twitter following the culmination of the main event, Miesha Tate suggested that “The Preacher’s Daughter” got it all wrong with her gameplan on the night. Speaking from experience, the 35-year-old discussed the importance of forcing Vieira to be the aggressor.
“Not a good game plan by @HollyHolm I can say it bc I’ve made the mistake before too. she shoulda stayed on the outside & forced Ketlen to be the aggressor. Holly’s an excellent counter striker, she tired herself out by engaging in the clinch too much. Ketlen makes it look easy”
Vieira’s victory over Holm on Saturday night marked the addition of a second former titleholder to her record. In her previous contest, the Brazilian outpointed Tate across 25 minutes of action.
Having defeated Tate and likely secured her ascent deep into the division’s top five with her triumph against Holm, Vieira will be keeping a close eye on the rematch between Peña and Nunes, which was recently confirmed to be the headliner for UFC 277 on July 30.
