(JUNE 22) WBAN received a
press release today in regards to Holly Holm's "Hit List" in
some of the fighters she would like to get in the ring with
after her successful win against Anne Sophie Mathis, on "The
Reckoning" boxing card that took place last Friday at the Route
66 Casino Hotel, in Albuquerque, New Mexico---this is who she
would like to fight!
In the release it stated, "If Holm and Fresquez get their way,
Holly's next opponent will be the only other female boxer
mentioned in the same circle today as Holm and Mathis, WBA/WBC/WBO
