On November 15, 2015, the Ultimate Fighting Championship held one of its biggest events of the year, the UFC 193. The event took place at the Etihad Stadium in Melbourne, Australia in front of a record-breaking crowd of 56,214 fans. The main event of the night was the highly anticipated bantamweight championship bout between Ronda Rousey and Holly Holm.

Holly Holm was a relatively unknown fighter to the casual MMA fans, but those in the know recognized her as a former professional boxer and kickboxer with a record of 33 wins and 2 losses. She was coming off a unanimous decision win over Marion Reneau in her UFC debut just four months prior to the fight with Rousey.

She was the UFC women's bantamweight champion, with a perfect record of 12 wins and no losses, and she had defeated all of her opponents by submission or knockout within the first round. Rousey was touted as one of the most dominating female athletes of all time and was a significant favorite to win the fight.

The pre-fight buildup was intense, with both fighters participating in a three-city media tour that garnered unprecedented attention. Rousey was at her usual confident and boisterous self during the press conferences and weigh-ins, while Holm remained calm and collected, keeping her game face on.

Once the fight began, Rousey charged forward and tried to clinch with Holm, but the challenger managed to keep her distance and landed some significant strikes early on. Holm continued to stick and move, utilizing her boxing skills while avoiding Rousey's clinch and takedown attempts.

Late in the first round, Holm landed a left high kick that knocked Rousey down and stunned her. Holm followed up with a series of punches that forced the referee to intervene and stop the fight, making Holm the new UFC women's bantamweight champion.

The stadium erupted with a mixture of shock and excitement, as the once-invincible Ronda Rousey had been dethroned in one of the biggest upsets in combat sports history. Holm was overcome with emotion, crying tears of joy as she was handed the championship belt.

The co-main event of the night featured the strawweight championship bout between Joanna Jedrzejczyk and Valerie Letourneau. Jedrzejczyk was the defending champion and had a perfect record of 10 wins and no losses, while Letourneau was the challenger with a record of 8 wins and 3 losses.

The fight was a five-round war, with both fighters displaying incredible striking skills and toughness. Jedrzejczyk ultimately emerged as the victor, retaining her championship belt via unanimous decision.
