I’ve been the underdog more than once and that is fine with me,” said Holm on Friday.
“I think the last time I really felt I was coming in as an underdog was a couple of years ago…I had been knocked out cold by the French (boxing) champion Anne Sophie Mathis and 21 out of her 24 wins were by KO.
“I believed I could beat her, and people thought I was crazy for doing that but I avenged my loss.
“Those are the victories that are even better, when you go through more in the lead up, and those are the challenges I love.”
