VIDEO : New Mexico Declares Holly Holm Day After Fighter's Defeat of Ronda Rousey

UFC women?s bantamweight champion Holly Holm let the tears flow on Sunday as she thanked hundreds of fans who turned out for a parade in her native Albuquerque. Holm said while standing on an outdoor stage at the city?s Civic Plaza, "It wasn?t just my team that helped me believe in myself, but it was the support of Albuquerque and I just thank you so much.? Governor Susana Martinez issued a proclamation declaring it Holly Holm Day across the state and gifted the fighter with a pair of gloves. The 34-year-old Holm captured the belt from the previously undefeated Ronda Rousey last month in Australia.
