I used to fight with hate. There's been a lot of aggression in my past growing up and stuff. That's because I was hurt myself.

A big misconception is that women shouldn't be in the UFC because we fight 'like girls,' but I think women have some of the most exciting fights.

I love to learn, and that's the really cool thing about martial arts - you're always learning new things.

The learning curve, and the things that you have to adapt to on a daily basis in the UFC, is pretty crazy. It's a huge burden for anybody to have: not just the fighting itself but learning how to deal with the other responsibilities.
