Bowkes Talking Bouts (w/ Dylan Bowker): Episode 40 - Roxanne Modafferi

Roxanne Modafferi is lined up to compete at UFC 266 in
September.

The Happy Warrior was supposed to fight Tatiana Suarez at the time
of our conversation. But Suarez has subsequently dropped out due to
injury and they're looking to secure another flyweight opponent for
Modafferi.

Modafferi covered several subjects with me: -this upcoming MMA
fight cementing her as having the most mixed martial arts contests
of any woman in the sport's history
-recording her knee rehab and Modafferi's regular social media
documenting of the progress
-some of her best friends nowadays starting as fans and the unique
loyalty to Modafferi's fanbase
-the MMA On Point video that compared her to Goku and the Goku rash
guard
-Serena DeJesus being her best friend and the growth that they have
had over the years
-the myriad of funny quotes Modafferi gets from reaching her kids'
jiu-jitsu classes
-being about 75 percent of the way through writing her memoir
continuation
-the joy of Modafferi's piano playing and wanting to serenade her
jiu-jitsu boyfriend
-her Fusion Fight League grappling contest on July 31st and
appearing on previous submission grappling circuits
