David Bixenspan Joins Press Row

---

Every Wednesday, Administrative Editor Jordan Breen welcomes a member of the mixed martial arts media into “Press Row” on the Sherdog.com blog. This week, Breen is joined by Wrestling Observer Newsletter contributor David Bixenspan.

It's been nearly two weeks since Holly Holm toppled Ronda Rousey, but the moment continues to resound within the sport, especially this week, as the newly-minted champion has been on an intensive media grind. Breen and Bixenspan look at how the fight and mainstream media alike have taken to Holm in the wake of her upset win, from her fantastic performance on ESPN's “SportsCenter” to hanging out with Larry King, discussing why Holm's personality has proved a perfect foil for Rousey, why her refreshing candor plays so well on the sports talk radio circuit and the ways in which her media blitz is a unique step for Zuffa.

Breen and Bixenspan also discuss the individual pay-per-view viability of Holly Holm, how many PPV buys she could draw on her own with an opponent other than Ronda Rousey and the longterm viability of a Holm-Rousey rivalry.
