Holm pulled off one of 2015’s biggest upsets with a second-round head-kick knockout of heavy favorite and undefeated champion, Ronda Rousey, on November 15th, 2015 at Etihad Stadium in Melbourne, Australia. Holm, a former and decorated pro boxer, simply dominated all aspects of the fight. Commenting on the announcement, Vice President of Brand Management, Anthony Presciano, stated, “Holly is an exceptional athlete and a proven winner with a rare ability to be a world champion in three different sports. Her work ethic combined with her relentless competitive drive makes her an ideal fit for the Hi-Tech brands. We are excited for what the future holds for Holly and the Hi-Tech family of brands.”
Recently Forrest Griffin stated in an MMA special rankings and year in review – biggest surprise of the year 2015, “now we have this Holly Holm…” and although Dana White previously said he should lose his promoters license if an immediate rematch between Holly Holm and Ronda Rousey is not booked, it appears Holm will indeed face another opponent before a potential second showdown with “Rowdy. With all that said, Hi-Tech will be there to lend its nutritional support.
