McGregor wins Best Fighter, Holm takes Best Upset at ESPYs

Conor McGregor and Holly Holm were honored for their standout performances in 2015 at the 2016 ESPY Awards on Wednesday night.

McGregor took home the Best Fighter award, marking the second consecutive year a UFC star has earned the distinction, after Ronda Rousey won in 2015.

Despite losing to Nate Diaz at UFC 196, "Notorious" shocked the UFC world in December by beating Jose Aldo in 13 seconds. McGregor also dominated Chad Mendes in August to earn the title fight against Aldo.

Holm walked away with the Best Upset award for her stunning win over Rousey at 193 in November, securing the women's bantamweight title and ending Rousey's dominant run.

It was the first time in the award's history that a combat sports event has been given the honor.
