Although former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm is known for her work in MMA, she got started in boxing.

Holm is the first person to win championships in both boxing and mixed martial arts. She was a multiple-time world champion in boxing by defending her titles 18 times in three weight classes.

There is know an opportunity to return to her original discipline if the UFC makes good on a plan to promote boxing fights in addition to those in the octagon.

It’s been talked about for what seems like forever but fight fans finally got to see a women’s featherweight title fight between Cyborg and Holm.

The promotion announced the bout will take place at UFC 219. That event has come and gone and it left a big impact on Holm.

The former UFC women’s bantamweight champion didn’t capture the women’s featherweight title from Cyborg in the main event of UFC 219.

As seen in the fight, which took place on Saturday, December 30, 2017, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on pay-per-view, Holm suffered a unanimous-decision loss to Cyborg.

As a result of her loss to Cyborg at UFC 219, Holm fell to 1-4 since her legendary knockout of Ronda Rousey at UFC 193 in November 2015.

Now, people are wondering about her future in the sport. Thus, Holm went on record in a recent interview that she is not going anywhere.

“People ask me, ‘you had four out of five losses, four out of five fights are losses and you’re 36 and are you going to return,” Holm said on a recent edition of The MMA Hour. “And I was like, it’s, ‘I still want to fight, that’s the bottom line.’”

“Why wouldn’t I want to return when I just gave her the toughest fight in weight class that is a heavier weight class from where I usually fight against the biggest person?” Holm asked. “I was the one who gave her her toughest fight so I don’t really understand the retirement, you know, people think should you retire maybe it’s just because of the way that, you know how those four fights have gone.”

“I know I’m still competitive, have a lot of capabilities if I want to do it. I definitely don’t have the, obviously every year gets a little bit more, maybe I can kind of coming closer. I’m 36, I’ll be 37 next year, I still feel like I’m strong and in competitive shape. I don’t feel 36. I feel competitive and I feel strong feel and I feel can really do well, so I’m keep going to keep going with it.”
