Left hand: Holly Holm
Holly Holm’s boxing ability stretches far beyond her time in MMA. The southpaw is a two-time The Ring magazine fighter of the year and retired from boxing in May 2013 as IBA and WBF female light welterweight champion. Holm also held the IBA, WBF and WBAN welterweight championships during a career that ended with a 33-2-3 professional record. Holm’s historic bantamweight championship win at UFC 193 culminated with a head kick, but a number of blistering left hands set the stage for the biggest win of her career.
Right hand: Cris Cyborg
Cris “Cyborg” Justino has uncommon striking power. She has 17 wins, 15 by knockout or TKO, and nine that came in the first round. Cyborg hasn’t lost a single fight since her professional debut in 2005, and no opponent has been able to go the distance with the Brazilian since 2008. Her tactful aggression and raw power are unparalleled in women’s MMA.
