Jéssica “Bate Estaca” Andrade, who will face Larissa pacheco No. UFC Brasilia, will have to face yet another opponent this week: TPM. The fighter talked about what it's like to manage her emotions just a few days before stepping into the Octagon once again and commented on what it feels like to return to fight in Brazil after three fights abroad for the UFC.

“I have PMS, it started today. Sinister! I even had to take some medicine for colic, which was terrible. But there is no way to be a woman, we are different. We will carry this with us for the rest of our lives. I've struggled with PMS once or twice and poor girl! I felt sorry for her, I hit her too much! But it’s about focusing, using strategy and going”, said the fighter, who has two wins and one loss in the UFC.

“Thank God I've never lost control to the point of crying, but if I'm watching something on television that makes me emotional, I start crying! Then I hold back the tears. But always before entering, in the hallway, that emotion comes to me and I feel like crying. But that’s when it’s time to concentrate”, continued the fighter from Paraná.
