On Saturday evening, the 2017 UFC pay-per-view calendar kicked off with the promotion’s first-ever event at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, headlined by the inaugural UFC Wommen’s Featherweight Championship bout between Holly Holm and Germaine de Randamie.

In a fight that ended up going the full five rounds, Women’s striking phenom de Randamie managed to hand Holm her third straight loss inside the Octagon, defeating the former Women’s boxing champion by unanimous decision with 48-47 scores across the board. With the win, de Randamie becomes the UFC’s first-ever Women’s Featherweight Champion.
