In early April Ashlee Evans-Smith spoke to Bloody Elbow about her upcoming fight with Bec Rawlings. It was the former featherweight and bantamweight’s flyweight debut and she was confident in her chances, stating she was the ‘better fighter’ and that she felt great, and more focused, training at a lower weight.
During the interview Evans-Smith hinted that she was feeling confident despite issues happening during camp that had the potential to completely derail her. “It’s been a very unique camp for me,” she said, adding, “I will probably go into more detail about it after my fight, just because it’s not really important right now.
