There’s nothing better than scoring a knockout win over a rising prospect to start off the year, says strawweight contender Marina Rodriguez. After finishing Amanda Ribas at UFC 257 in an impressive manner, the Brazilian muay thai specialist could not be happier about her performance.
In an interview with Ag Fight, Rodriguez went as far as calling it the most important win of her career and believes pundits will start to pay more attention to her from now on. However, despite not being a fan-favorite due to her more discrete attitude, Marina does not intend to change her ways to gain more notoriety.
