“I want to thank all my fans who have supported me, not only in my best moments, but also in my hardest. Words cannot describe how much this love and support means to me.

Getting back to not just fighting, but also winning, was my total focus this past year. However, sometimes, even when you prepare and do your best because you really want something, things end up not going as you planned. I'm proud to see how much the women's divisions have thrived and I want to commend all the other women who made this possible, including Amanda.
