“I’m excited to partner with Most Valuable Promotions and return to the boxing ring,” Holm said in a statement. “This new chapter is going to be an exciting journey, and I’m looking forward to the challenge. Coming full circle back to boxing- I’ve spent most of my MMA career at 135 pounds, and now I have the opportunity to make my boxing debut at that weight.
“With boxing titles in three higher weight classes under my belt, I’m eager to pursue a fourth title in a new division.”
That same night, Paul will face Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in the main event from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
