“Winning is not everything, but wanting to win is. You did both. I know how hard you've worked for this. You deserve. I am very proud of you, my love. Congratulations,” wrote the groom.
In addition to beating one of the Brazilian promises in the women's bantamweight (up to 61,2kg), Kunitskaya took an important step towards a future title fight. Before stepping into the Octagon last weekend, the Russian was ranked seventh in the category – one behind Ketlen.
After the triumph over Vieira, Yana should take over the Brazilian's position. With this, Marreta's bride is close to the top 5 in the category led by Amanda nunes.
