The days are fast going by and before you know it, Ronda Rousey will be climbing back into the Octagon as she now takes on former boxer Holly Holm for UFC 193, which will be held at the Etihad Stadium in Melbourne, Australia.

The initial belief is that Rousey is still the favorite for this one, although as with her past opponents, the reigning UFC women's bantamweight champion is not taking Holm lightly.

The only difference right now is that the two seem to be showing respect for each other, far different from the approach that Bethe Correia did when she made that infamous suicide Twitter post.

But make no mistake about it, much as Rousey respects Holm, she intends to come out on top and keep her unblemished record.

"She's a nice chick. I don't have anything against her," Rousey said about Holm while appearing on "The Tonight Show" . "She's a nice chick that's going to lose," she added.

Holm brings his boxing experience plus her striking prowess against Rousey this November. But if her last fight is any indication, Rousey has been adding striking to her list of artillery as well.

As she did with Correia, Rousey says that this fight will last longer. She claims that it will be longer than that 34-second annihilation she did on the Pitbull at UFC 190.

For the record, no fighter has been able to last with Rousey beyond the first round aside from Miesha Tate. Such has become Rousey's trademark and Holm may be looking to somehow do that when they face each other.

So how does Rousey intend to approach Holm?

"She's the type of fighter you have to be very, very patient with. I feel like she's going to try to, like, keep distance and keep far away from me and get me frustrated until the point I make a mistake and she can try to kick me in the head, but it's not going to go like that — not the way she wants," says Rousey via the Washington Post.
