Felicia Spencer isn’t discouraged after the first loss of her professional MMA career this past weekend against Cris Cyborg at UFC 240.
Spencer (7-1) lost a hard-fought unanimous decision to Cyborg in the co-main event of UFC 240. Before that, the Canadian won her UFC debut by first-round submission to Megan Anderson in May. Talking to MMA Fighting, Spencer took inspiration from the loss to Cyborg and was happy with her performance in the fight.
“I am happy that I wasn’t finished,” Spencer said. “I just kept coming and I felt pretty good about the first round, it was a good feeling honestly going into the second round, I really thought I could push forward with it.
