After taking a day to enjoy the biggest victory of her career, new UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion Holly Holm took to social media to share her thoughts on what she accomplished in Melbourne, Australia this past weekend.
Holm, who dominated previously unbeaten Ronda Rousey en route to a vicious second round head-kick knockout victory at UFC 193, posted the following statement on her official Instagram page.
Best feeling in the world. Still trying to process and take it all in. There aren't enough words to express what I am feeling. Thank you @ufc for the opportunity and most of all thank you to my team for believing in me. All the hours in the gym and all the years of dedication to help me get to this moment. This is a priceless moment and I could not have done this on my own. @mmacoachwink its been 17 years and one hell of a ride. Let's see where it goes from here! Greg Jackson and @izzystylewrestling ... My transition to mma would not be possible without you. All of the coaching and teammates @jacksonwink_mma ...... You are my family and love you all so much! I only hope to make you proud and be a good champion. And to all of my fans..... I would not be able to live the dream without you. Much love to you all!! Big hugs to everyone! #ANDNEW
