Everybody sending positive thoughts for my injury. If you don&#8217;t know I have been injured and I cannot fight in Australia. Something that is super heavy on my heart and I&#8217;m super bummed out about. To go through a whole training camp and not be able to make it to the fight. And not just for me. This is a training camp for Raquel Pennington as well, my opponent who I have a lot of respect for. I don&#8217;t know the scientific terms, but the tendon that attaches my hamstring to my bone, I tore 30 percent of it last week in training. The good news is I don&#8217;t need surgery, but one week&#8217;s time is just not enough time for me to be ready to fight. So I&#8217;ll be rehabbing it and be back at it soon and I&#8217;ll let you guys know when the fight is rescheduled. Thanks again for all the love.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Holm last fought at UFC 239 in July, when she suffered a devastating knockout loss to Amanda Nunes in her bid to regain the UFC women&#8217;s bantamweight championship.
