28 Quotes by Holly Holm

I started doing MMA and boxing at the same time - I always wanted to try an MMA fight to see what it was like. I had one fight, and I was hooked.

I still have a lot to learn, and I still have a lot to prove.

I think you can get so mentally beat by kind of working yourself up too much.

I'm going to hit you as hard as I can regardless of whether you touch my gloves or not.

I've been on the end of losing a fight, and there's a piece of my heart that has compassion towards that because I know how it feels.

It doesn't matter what odds are on paper or what's happened before. It matters what happens that moment.

There's a ton of nerves for every fight I've been in; it doesn't matter if it was my debut.

There's days in training where everything flows and days in training where they don't. You just pray that doesn't happen the night of the fight.

A lot of times, fighters get not only physically tired but mentally exhausted. It's like a chess match - you're thinking of offense and defense at the same time. It's almost exhausting to think about it. After a while, you just go, 'I'll move my pawn.' A lot of times in fights, people get exhausted, and they're just sick of trying to focus on it.
