Holly Holm ‘s future in MMA is still uncertain, but for now, she can claim a title in the sport after downing an overmatched Juliana Werner for the Legacy FC women’s bantamweight belt. The bout served as the headlining contest of Friday’s Legacy FC 30 event, which took place at Route 66 Casino Hotel | Albuquerque, N.M., and aired on AXS TV. Southpaw Holm (7-0) held the center from the start, kicking the body of her orthodox opponent in the early going. Werner (7-4) stayed mobile in the first round and avoided taking any damage over what turned out to be a relatively cautious frame.
