Zuffa buys Legacy FC, Holly Holm incoming

Well, see we first had this information that Dana White and co. weren’t interested in Holly Holm, and I guess that’s kinda true, they’re interested in the whole shebang – Zuffa bought Legacy Fighting Championships today and Holly Holm is coming with the deal. Looks like Ronda has a future opponent?

Mick Maynard, CEO of the Texas-based promotion had this to say:

Holly Holm is fighting for our title against Juliana Werner this Saturday at Route 66 Casino and we couldn’t be more excited,” said Maynard. “She’s a future UFC star and probably the most intriguing future opponent for Ronda Rousey so we’re excited to continue to see her progress. We’re confident she’s going to continue to be a star in the UFC and we’re extremely grateful as we are with all our fighters that she chose to fight for us at Legacy FC. I don’t know when she’s debut (in the UFC) but they’re looking at later this year.”
