“At the end of the day, it's about who wants it more in the cage.”

“I have an amazing team behind me and I know what I'm capable of.”

“I feel like there comes a time when experience becomes an excuse for fighters, someone is more experienced therefore they automatically should win.”

“I was always interested in boxing, and I would go to boxing fight nights just locally on the Gold Coast where I'm from with my friends, and we had seen that there was a local MMA event. We went and got tickets and the person that we received the tickets from was a gym owner and he was a coach there.”

“From what I've seen, I think my strengths match up very well with Cris.”

“I am really focused. I train a lot, and the endorphins help me a lot.”

“Amanda is very aggressive with her fighting style and her will to win is strong. She has power, crisp striking but she also has that ability to brawl. She's got that dog in her, man, and she's willing to throw down and swing.”

“Everyone's invincible until they're not.”

“I think I match up well with Holly. I'm a big fan of hers. I respect her a lot, she's done a lot for the sport and she's a great athlete.”

“I 100 per cent believe in my capabilities, I 100 per cent have belief in my team.”

“People think I'm slow, but I don't think so. I just move differently.”

“It's not about dealing with someone's experience, it's more about enforcing my will on my opponent to get the win.”

“I have met Cris in person and she is lovely, she's nice and she's respectful.”

“I like striking, but yeah, who doesn't?”

“If the UFC doesn't want to have the two best featherweights in the world to fight then can you really say they are invested in the division?”

“Getting into training and having a purpose was really what helped me. Having a reason to get out of bed was what made me better.”

“I don't really think about the things I have been through because they are just parts of my life that I have grown from.”

“I don't think a lot of people really understand. I'm not in a position to demand opponents.”

“I definitely think it takes a certain kind of person to be able to do that, to pick up their whole life and move to a different country.”

“There's always room to prove people wrong and I always love doing that.”
