Holly Holm vs Megan Anderson Added to UFC 225

[NandoMoura]

Holly Holm takes on Megan Anderson in the practically barren featherweight class at UFC 225 June 9 at the United Center. Their bout boosts a main card that also features Robert Whittaker’s rematch with Yoel Romero, with Whittaker’s middleweight belt on the line, and an interim welterweight title fight between Rafael dos Anjos and Colby Covington.

If true, this makes 225 the card of the year, with Whittaker-Romero 2, and RDA-Covington. Other fights are interesting too if I recall.

Nice.

Lol, like Holm vs Anderson means anything to the card

Interdasting

Very interdasting

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Well I for one will at least be looking forward to the bikini-clad weigh-ins, in this one.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

That makes four fighters in the division! Progress!

 

[Staph infection]

Do we finally get to see Megan’s ass jiggle in the octagon?

 

[Magnum1978]

Huge card

I guess Megan doesn't have any visa issues then going forward.

She only has them when it comes to fighting Cyborg

 

[Joseph_McBride]

cm punk, blaydes-reem as well

Bektic/Lamas, Arlovski/Tuivasa too

It will if Anderson sleeps Holly. Everyone will want to see her fight Cyborg. And if Holly wins In sure she won't be far from a title shot in some weight class

 

[NinjaSpider]

Everything but Nunes vs Cyborg or maybe a Rose fight is totally uninterresting to me if im being honest. Not hating or anything but WMMA is still a few years from being watchable below the top 5 women

 

[James Baller]

Awesome fight. Awesome card. Wish I still lived in Chicago, I'd be going for sure.

 

[Arkridge]

They should have fed Anderson a can so we can get the Cyborg beatdown over with. Weird fight to make.

 

[markys00]

wow 225 is looking freaking great.

even once the inevitable happens and 2 fights go down, it should still be good.

my guess it gets moved to 226 for international fight week.... actually now that i look at it, 225 is the international card.....

i gotta say, there are 9 fights that deserve to be on main card. two titles, this fight, overreem/blaydes, pettis/benavidez, cm punk, claudia/esparza, arlovski/tai, bektic/lamas... i wonder how many ppl will complain when one of these ends up main eventing the fightpass prelims..

yea cuz holly has a good chance of beating her (shit she might be the favorite)

doesnt make sense since megan is one of the only fights for cyborg at 145, its hard enough to get opponents for her. if megan loses they're killing off possibly the only fresh contender they have.

I'm pretty sure @Bluntforce420 is just saying "lol wmma" and wouldn't care about a KO or Cyborg/Anderson either
