She’s already fought the hardest toughest fight of her life with mental health and a suicide attempt a fight in a cage is a breeze Win lose or draw she’s fighting the best female to ever do it and I hope it brings her stardom up and gets more of these messages across to people she’s a beautiful girl and so honest and could help so so many people The UFC the fight with Nunes is a bonus for her as crazy as it sounds but till you’ve been in her position you’ll never know Amanda is huge favourite and we all love her but I wish Megan all the best!
