Holly Holm ... Holmcoming Parade For The Champ

Holly Holm got a huge welcome from her hometown of Albuquerque, New Mexico ... with an all out parade and tribute to the new UFC Women's champ.

Thousands of Abq locals packed the streets Sunday to honor Holm with a procession that included floats with the mayor, city officials and of course, the champ herself riding on a trolley.

After the parade, fans packed the city square where Holm spoke to the crowd.

You'll remember, she delivered a knock out kick to the previously undefeated Ronda Rousey Nov. 15.

It's pretty cool being #1.
