Jessica Andrade (13-4) kommer möta Raquel Pennington (5-5) på UFC 191 och efter sin match mot Pennington vill Andrade möta Bethe Correia (9-1) innan året är slut.
Andrade berättar att hon precis hade börjat träna igen när hon fick reda på att hon skulle möta Pennington.
HETAST JUST NU
“I didn’t train for three weeks,” berättade hon för MMAjunkie. “I had just got back to training when I found out I’d be facing Raquel (Pennington) again.”
Andrade vill gärna gå match oftare då hon känner att hon blir mindre nervös av det.
“My stamina is on point,” sa Andrade. “I already feel strong. I like to fight frequently, so I don’t lose motivation, focus or rhythm. I think there are less nerves when one fights more often.”
Andrade hoppas kunna gå match mot Correia innan året är slut.
“I hope I get to fight again before the year is out, ending it on a high note,” Andrade said. “Since my travel visa and medicals are still up to date, I accepted (the Pennington bout) – especially since it will be in Las Vegas, a place I’d always wanted to visit. Every fight is different. So I think that Raquel Pennington will be a better fighter than last time around.
“Hopefully with one more victory, Bethe will want to face me next. By beating Raquel again, I would end up with five victories out of seven fights in the UFC. So I feel that I’m in the right place and I know I am going to get even better.”
