Female Boxer Honored by Parade in New Mexico

Today in Albuquerque thousands of residents lined the streets downtown to celebrate hometown hero, Holly Holm, who took down Ronda Rousey in November to win the UFC Women’s Bantamweight Championship.

New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez stood in the back of a vintage pickup with a sign that read, “Welcome Holm.” Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry was behind her in a vintage red Chevy truck.

Look at pictures of Ms. Holm and Ms. Rousey. They both are so muscular and fit. What beautiful bodies. Why in this country do we encourage women to be anorexic? Come on now.
