Fight Ticker's very own MMABrat is conducting an interview with female fighter Felice Herrig. If you have suggestions for interview questions, please post them here.
She is a bad ass and didn't really start till she was 18. Imagine if she would have started in diapers like most martial artists. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmQo67ePRUw

Phoenix she fights in the WCL so although she doesn't go to the ground its still mixed martial arts. From what Brat and I have read She is versed in Thai as well as kick boxing, boxing, and Karate. That is one of the things I find most amusing about some people (not talking about you phoenix) when they hear MMA they think UFC and it stops there. MMA=mixed martial arts as in more than one lol

yeah. she beat that asian chick down...was that the show on that channel where they followed them around? i didn't watch it...it was on one of those chick channels like oxygen or something, i don't know where that channel is...
She is very tough, and I love watching her in action! I can't wait to pick her brain, and hope to train in Thai myself someday. Thanks for posting this!!!!

banning youth MMA is like saying golf is worth while!
yeah. i also heard him saying ground fighting was boring and fans didn't like it and all we want to see is knockouts. he's wrong!!! wrong!!!! i like knockouts, but it's also exciting to see a striker scared to be taken down, when that threat isn't there it just takes something away imo. and besides, i haven't seen the WCL on tv in a long time. when was their last show?
another question, why are they wearing track pants? and are they rip off pants, like stripper pants??
A ground fight is boring if he just lays there and 'controls' the guy just the same that a 'technical' striker jabbing his way to victory in a decision is boring too. BJ Penn is not boring, neither is Big Nog... I dont think I have ever been bored watching one of thier fights and every one of thier fights goes to the ground at some point. Tim Silvia is known for his striking and has at times been one of the most boring fighters. It's all about the action and risks taken by both fighters. Chuck Norris is wrong - I take back all those things I posted about him over at CBS!!!!
the nate diaz pelligrino fight weds was a good ground fight...that was so fun to watch. i like submissions a lot too, and taking that away takes out the fun for me.
six, someone posted a video(might have been me) with chuck norris saying that...it's on youtube somewhere...
ask her why she started fighting, what her ultimate goal is in the fight game, if she has plans after fighting, what she's gonna do next, why randy couture is being a jackass...

yeah...just wondering if she was gonna do the rest of mma, like the ground game and submissions...
maybe my question can be changed to "Do you wish you can choke out the other fighter?"
i can't watch the WCL, it gets on my nerves...

Depends on if she died right?

I didn't get my game console.
well, was she already dead before brat starting picking her brain? or was the picking of the said brain the cause of death...

I have said many times that I would rather see people slug it out, but when it comes to a fight I'm glad I'm a wrestler!

A good ground match between two BJJ practicioner is just as exciting as a great stand-up fight, no questions asked.
Hey Brat, ask her what she thinks of Gina Carano and if the attention she gets is good for the sport & aspiring female fighters.

ask her why she started fighting, what her ultimate goal is in the fight game, if she has plans after fighting, what she's gonna do next, why randy couture is being a jackass...
