Holly Holm meets Brazil's Erica Paes, who defeated 'Cyborg,' at Legacy FC 24

Holly Holm signed with Legacy Fighting Championship a week ago hoping to stay unbeaten at the next level of MMA.

Now the former pro boxer has her opponent. Holm (4-0) will fight Brazilian Erica Paes (2-2) at Legacy FC 24. Legacy FC promoter Mick Maynard today confirmed the booking with MMAjunkie.com.

Legacy FC 24 takes place Oct. 11 at Allen Event Center in Allen, Texas. The night's main card, including Holm vs. Paes, airs on AXS TV.

"We offered the fight to around 40 people or more, and all declined for one reason or another," Maynard said in an email. "For the naysayers, Holly is willing to fight anyone."

Paes fought twice in 2005, but then took a lengthy hiatus. But more than eight years ago, the first fight of her career was a kneebar submission of former Strikeforce championCristiane Justino. Starting your career with a tapout win over the woman who would become "Cyborg" Santos is an impressive feat. But after a loss in her second fight, Paes didn't fight again until April of this year, when she returned with a submission win. In June, though, she lost a decision at Jungle Fight 54 in her home country. Now she'll fight in America for the first time.

Holm went 33-2-3 during her pro boxing career. In her promotional debut at Legacy FC 21 in July, she scored picked up a second-round knockout win with a head kick against Allanna Jones. All of Holm's MMA wins have come by knockout. She trains at the Jackson-Winkeljohn camp in Albuquerque, N.M.

With the addition, the Legacy FC 24 card now includes:

RoboCop Trailer Unleashed! Here Are Five Things You Need to Know About the Cyborg Reboot

He's part man, part machine and all remake.

The trailer for the long-delayed RoboCop reboot has finally hit the web, and by the looks of it, MGM and Columbia's 2014 version is taking its cues right out of the Christopher Nolan playbook.

E! News runs down the five biggest differences between the new, Jos Padilha-directed RoboCopas seen hereversus Paul Verhoeven's 1987 sci-fi pulp classic:

1. RoboCop Begins: By putting an up-and-coming star into the main role, surrounding him with an all-star cast of acclaimed character actors and shooting for an expected PG-13 rating, Padilha apparently hopes to replicate the massive critical and commercial success Nolan earned with his Dark Knight trilogy. While that may win the franchise a wider, more family-friendly audience, a watered-down, less bloody RoboCop runs the risk of alienating the diehards that found the Rated-R original such a guilty pleasure and made it a box office hit. Already, Netizens are slamming the reboot as an uninspired Hollywood retread and it will be up to the Brazilian filmmaker best known for the foreign documentary Bus 174 to prove them wrong.

2. Murphy Lives! In the first film, Peter Weller starred as Detroit police officer Alex Murphy, who in the year 2028 is pronounced dead after being brutally attacked by crime boss Clarence Boddicker and his thugs, only to be resurrected as the robot crime fighter. In this one, Murphy is portrayed by The Killing's Joel Kinnaman, but this time, his character survives a car bombing. Murphy's fate is also a subtle allusion to the current plight of many American servicemen injured in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

3. It's Got Batman! Furthering the Batman analogy, Padilha casts Michael Keaton in the role of villain Raymond Sellars, the CEO of OmniCorp., the all-powerful corporation that creates our cyborg hero. Of course, Sellars aims to use Murphy to his own nefarious ends by turning him into a weapon he can deploy at his disposal. Fanboys have decried the filmmaker's decision to lose the old school silver metal armor suit in favor of all-black "tactical" look. And who better to give RoboCop that big-screen makeover than the guy who played the original Dark Knight in Tim Burton's 1989 Batman?

4. Did We Mention Gary Oldman?! The erstwhile Commissioner Gordon plays the pivotal role of Dr. Dennett Norton, the scientist who puts humpty dumpty Murphy back together again after the latter sustains "4th degree burns over 80 percent of his body," as he notes. Once again, Oldman is seemingly playing a good guy, who we imagine will likely serve as a father figure/mentor for our protagonist's journey (which the 1987 version didn't have). Morgan Freeman, alas, isn't in it, but joining Oldman is Samuel L. Jackson as a media mogul and the ever-creepy Jackie Earle Haley playing Maddox, a military man who trains RoboCop. And based on this teaser, we've a gut feeling the latter's character is going to be doing Sellars' dirty work the way Kurtwood Smith's Clarence did the same for Ronny Cox's OCP President Dick Jones in the original.
