One with you sylvia day pxc11/11/2022 ![]() ![]() Now I’m sitting in my hotel room on fight morning and it really is!! Ever since I accepted the fight I’ve been telling people where and when it is but I don’t think I ever quite believed it would be happening. To be honest it’s all been a bit of a dream. How are you feeling about this new exciting challenge? You’re now 3-0 in your professional MMA career thus far and are set to face American Cortney ‘Cast Iron’ Casey (3-1) on Friday 13th March for your debut at Pacific Xtreme Combat (PXC) 47 in Guam. Training with Molly and the other girls was awesome, Molly is the next big thing in WMMA! Helen Harper Jiu Jitsu on the Beach Win via Armbar 2013 ![]() I have done a few grappling comps, although not as many as I would have liked as they are generally a little out my price range sadly. ![]() Can you talk me through the grappling events and training with other like-minded female MMA athletes. I’ve heard that in between your fights, you took part in some grappling competitions and that you had also been doing some training with Bryony Tyrell and Molly McCann. I was completely relaxed going into the cage which I think helped a lot. I was pretty pleased with the win, obviously. How did it feel to win in such a spectacular style in another TKO victory, in 4 minutes 37 seconds of the first round in that event on the evening of October 11th 2014? The fight was at ‘Say Uncle Fight Night’ in Sheffield, and I fought a girl from Gran Caneria called Nayra Acosta. I did indeed get another fight, which was actually my last fight back in October. Can you talk me through what that event was and how that went for you? It’s been awhile since I’ve caught up with you, last time we spoke you were due to fight Simona Soukupova, which, unfortunately got cancelled due to Simona sustaining an injury, but I do believe you did manage to get another fight scheduled for a few weeks later. Here I get to speak with Helen (today, on the day of her fight), about her last victory, competing for PXC, up and coming female MMA athlete’s and that ONE contract she turned down!!
