Holly Holm shuts down comparisons between Kayla Harrison and Ronda Rousey ahead of UFC 300

UFC veteran Holly Holm has shut down the comparisons that people are making between Kayla Harrison and Ronda Rousey.

At UFC 300, Holly Holm will attempt to get back in the win column. She’ll do so when she battles it out with the debuting Kayla Harrison, with the contest taking place at bantamweight.

As many fans know, Holm is a former champion at 135 pounds. In order to win the belt, she had to go through Ronda Rousey – and she did so in a vicious fashion with a nasty head kick knockout.

As a result of Rousey and Harrison both having a judo background, a lot of fans and pundits have opted to compare the two. In the eyes of Holly, though, they’re both pretty different.

Holm dismisses Harrison/Rousey comparisons

“A lot of people are putting those comparisons together, but they’re also different sizes, different styles, different stances,” Holm said. “They don’t even stand in the same stance. Everything is different. Some similarities yes, but for the most part it’s different. Their striking, what they go for is different. It’s nothing where I’m like, ‘I’ve beat a judo champion before, so I’ve got this in the bag.’ I’m not thinking about that at all.”
