Holly Holm ready for another boxing match

Former UFC women's bantamweight champion Holly Holm returned to the boxing ring for the first time in 12 years on June 28 in Anaheim, California. Holm put on a commanding performance outclassing Yolanda Vega on the Jake Paul vs. Julio Cesar Chávez Jr. fight card.

Holm couldn't remember the last time she had been inside a boxing ring. She also didn't spar in boxing shoes. 

"It was fun. I've been excited to box but there's so many nerves going into a fight. That never changes. The day that I don't get nervous is the day I know I need to not be fighting. I care to win. I want to win," Holm said during the Paul vs. Chavez Jr. Post-Fight Press Conference. 

"Just getting in there and feeling out the actual ring again. That's the first time that I've actually been in a ring, I don't know, because I don't spar in a ring. I don't. I spar in my MMA gym. I only sparred two days in shoes. I was barefoot this whole champ. It's just how I train," continued Holm.

"I did that a lot before when I was boxing, so it's not just because I did MMA. It was kind of like, I'm going to put on some boxing shoes and get in this ring and I hadn't been in a ring in that long really."

With the dominating win in her return, Holm is itching to get back in the squared circle again. 

"I got in there and it was just fun. It still felt like home. It didn't feel foreign. I had a good time, so I'm ready for another one," she said. 

Before becoming the UFC women's bantamweight champion was a world class boxer. From 2002 until 2013, Holm was a multiple-time world champion. She defended her boxing titles 18 times in three weight classes.
