Thoughts on opponent, Micol di Segni? I don’t really know her and haven’t seen her fight before. All I know is that she’s in my way towards my dream of becoming a Power Slap champ. Nothing but respect for her and what we got to go out there and do. But I signed up for a job and that’s what I’m here for – greatness.

When and why did you start training to be a Slap Fighter? When: A little over a year ago I wanted to do it. I reached out to Robert Trujillo about training for slap fighting. I didn’t get to train with him but I got to train with the champ. Why: Because I believe in me. That’s why. I believe I have what it takes to be a slap fighter.

What does fighting in Power Slap mean for you and your career? It means that I can chase my dream of being a slap fighter. I see so many girls with high potential and I believe that I will be one of them. I will be one that inspires other women to chase their dreams.

What are your ultimate goals in fighting? Being the best slap fighter. That’s the goal. Coming from nothing and becoming something.

What’s the worst thing you’ve ever done? I didn’t know that my husband was a famous fighter (because I only knew Chuck Liddell) and we went to the fan expo. I told him I wanted to walk around and see all the vendors and I lost him for four hours because everyone wanted pictures with him. I got him in trouble because he was late to his signing.

What’s the best thing you’ve ever done? Brought three amazing kids into this world and I’m showing them how to chase their dreams and that nothing is impossible.

Is there anyone you’d like to slap fight against? I haven’t gotten there just yet. I’m already doing a slap fight against a high-profile name. I honestly couldn’t have asked for anything more.
