Cheyanne Buys got her chance to audition for a UFC contract directly in front of Dana White last month, but she’d been trying to get his attention for a while before that.
With a dominant decision win over Hilarie Rose on the Aug. 18 episode of the Contender Series, Buys earned herself a UFC contract and a brief face-to-face with with the boss after leaving the cage. Buys, 25, could be heard reminding White that she’d sent him several messages on social media asking for an opportunity.
Buys elaborated on her struggle to get on White’s radar during a recent appearance on What the Heck.
