“Guys, I come here to inform you that this fight has been cancelled, as my opponent has an injured hand to fight. The strange thing is that until two days ago her hand was in (per)perfect condition, she even posted a trained video, but anyway, God knows everything and I trust his plans, because his plans are better than mine . Thank you guys for your strength, and I remain focused on training and waiting,” she wrote.
