One of the pioneers of women’s MMA in Europe has called it quits.
Citing an abnormality found in a recent brain scan, Aisling Daly has retired from MMA, she announced Monday on her Instagram page. Daly said a routine scan showed the remnants of a small hemorrhage that had taken place in prior months.
“It would be unlikely I would be medically cleared to compete again, even in the event I could find a doctor who would clear me it would be very unwise for me to continue to compete with the risks involved,” Daly wrote.
