Josh Barnett and BJ Penn... I respect all the rest of the Angels of Destruction, because we all know the pains and hell we go through training with Josh. How much of an emphasis do you place on cardio? Cardio is the #1 submission. What is your approach to nutrition? I eat healthy and good 6 days a week and have 1 cheat day. Do you take any supplements? Yes. I take fish oil, protien, vitamins, and colostrum.

I started training ground to beat a boxer at a local show. How many hours a day do you train? 4-6 From a fans perspective, what is the attraction do you think? Why do people like to watch it? Because at any moment, it could end.

Yes... Definately evolved. My game has definately rounded out.

I Bless my power fists (for the Warhammer fans). What gives you the ability to win? KNOWING that that place is mine.

Yes, I have one knockout in an amateur fight a few years ago. I didn't even know it happened, I jumped on her and started finishing her off with punches before they pulled me off to stop the fight.

My 2nd fight with Buckner I think really showed that I belong in the upper tier of women in the sport. Other than that, I think my career turn that has happened since signing with Proelite has been a HUGE landmark for me. Nine of your fights were won by Submissions.... but you are also good at standup fighting. which do you prefer? If I knock you out, you can say I got lucky and make excuses, or even claim you weren't knocked out. If you tap, that's ALL you, saying I beat you. There's no argument, no denial.

So is self-belief a big factor with you? Are you still training with UFC heavyweight champion Josh Barnett? what has he taught you? Self belief is HUGE. And that is actually what training with Josh (yes I still train with him) does for me. He took my mind from "it's such an honor to be here" to "this is MY place, I DESERVE to be here."

You are a great fighter..do you think you will ever be on the same card as Gina Carano? My goal is to fight the best, and if EliteXC has her as the best right now, then yes, it's my goal to be on the same card across the ring from her. Wheter EliteXC does it or not is up to them, I fight whoever they tell me to.

No, I have a general approach, but I definately tailor my fight training for my opponent. If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a punch... I get sent out into the wild and have to fight my way back through cunning and survival skills.....My drills get more fight specific for the opponent and my cardio increases alot, of course.

I would like to thank my parents for all they have done for me, including my two sisters – Ila and Christina.  Thank you for always supporting me! Check out Strikeforce on June 27th at the HP in San Jose, CA; my fight will be fight of the night!
