Video: Will Holly Holm become UFC champion again before retiring?

Former women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm is still here, looking fantastic at 41.

In the co-main event of UFC on ESPN 43, Holm (33-2-3 MMA, 8-6 UFC) won a clear unanimous decision against Yana Santos, and even proved she’s still adding new wrinkles to her game. There were a few times in the fight “The Preacher’s Daugher” threatened to record the first submission win of her career, in addition to beating Santos wherever the fight went.

After the win, Holm finds herself in an interesting position, especially considering she just signed a new six-fight deal with the UFC.

Since her massive upset knockout of Ronda Rousey at UFC 193 in 2015, Holm has gone 5-6 overall, but more importantly, winless in four title fights during that stretch. However, when paired against contenders, Holm has shined, leaving few options that make sense for her next step.

Is it time to run it back with the champ Amanda Nunes? If not, which opponent makes sense for Holm? Is it possible that Holm could win a UFC title again before hanging up the gloves?

Our “Spinning Back Clique” of Mike Bohn, Nolan King, and Brian “Goze” Garcia gave their thoughts along with host Simon Samano. Check out their discussion in the video above, and don’t miss this week’s full episode below.
