I'm a courageous person because I'm a scared person.
Where is women's sports prominently displayed with the men? Tennis is the only thing I can think of.
If I could have had everything exactly the way I wanted, this is how I would have written it down. Win all my fights in the first round, then go to the UFC and headline a show, and have it as a pay-per-view and at home. People's dreams don't come true like that.
The bigger my chest is, the more it gets in the way. It just creates space. It makes me much more efficient if I don't have so much in the way between me and my opponent.
Reality TV is set up to make people entertaining. A good person with values and principles is not good television.
One thing that I learned from judo... Maximum efficiency and minimum effort.
There are so many ridiculous arguments that MMA is somehow anti-woman.
