“Fighters before a fight, they shouldn’t get riled up.”

It takes a lot when you are a professional fighter to stay in top condition. You have to sacrifice a lot and I did.

I am a woman and I don’t have the power and the strength of a man, so I have to use my technique and my strategy more than just using brute strength like some of the guys do.

I always wanted to box.

Through Biblical times, there have been great women warriors and now the sport is so populated that these are the women warriors that we have today in boxing, kickboxing, and MMA.

What happened to the men’s boxing is happening to the women’s boxing, but not all the time. Every now and then, you get some really great fights. It’s a money thing and how many people are going to buy that pay-per-view for the fights. The UFC is eventually going to go that way.

I’m just looking to learn, grow, stay focused, and become a better fighter and a better athlete.

I think I am the greatest fighter in any class. I know I can hold two, maybe even three belts.

I don’t fight in chase of an individual. I hear this sometimes where fighters work their whole careers to reach a matchup with a certain individual. I do not think in that way.

I’m a true fighter, not an Instagram fighter.

I’m not an alcoholic, I am freedom fighter against the teetotal taliban.

I am a fighter first, then an actor.

Break the rules. Be a fighter.

I smiled, danced and cried my way out.
