The last week has not been easy for Justine Kish. The Russian suffered her first defeat as a professional against Felice herrig at UFC Oklahoma, held last Sunday (25), and reached defecating in the octagon when trying to get out of a chokehold. However, despite some embarrassing statements from other athletes, the fighter seems to have left the problem behind.

Kish revealed that up to the UFC's present, Dana White, got in touch after the fact, offered support and even offered an extra bonus for his bravery in continuing the fight without giving up.
“He (Dana White) called me the next day and wanted to know if I was okay. He realized that there was a bit of humiliation behind what happened. He encouraged me and said, 'You fought like a warrior there. I loved the way you handled it”, said the fighter on The Domenick Nati Show.
“Another thing that's cool is that Dana suggested that I get a small bonus, a gift, for my performance. The UFC is really good at giving out little secret bonuses here… I didn't ask for it and I don't know how much it will be or anything, so we'll see. I’ll find out in a few weeks”, added the Russian.
