My mom sent me this old picture of myself when I was 12 years old. I got teased mercilessly for being nerdy and weird. I wish I could go back and tell myself, “Don’t worry, little Roxanne.❤️ You’ll have friends and even fans when you grow up.”

Meh, fathers are supposed to be biased and say stupid things. Mine used to say, “I’m proud of you...so are you retiring yet?” Not anymore, though. :) At least she didn’t say it. I still respect Macyee for being a warrior.

In my 44-fight career, 4 opponents missed weight, and I lost 3 of those fights. Not once did any of them come up before or after the fight and say, “Gee, sorry I missed weight. Thanks for fighting me anyway.” It would be nice considering the blows I took to my career & wallet. :/

I’ll go! I think consent is needed.I fought men in Jiujitsu tourneys before & everyone agreed it was exhibition, not as part of the tourney lineup. However,if I entered a National comp, I’d prefer to face only Xchrom females to win my gold.I might do exhibition but not be forced.
Each day for the next week I'm going to call on well-known female athletes to take a stance on this issue because silence is complicity...we need their voices.

I think if I had kicked it and bruised it and she was limping on it, I would’ve kept kicking it. But I knew she had some kind of ligament injury, so while I would take advantage of that, I just didn’t wanna injure it more.

I'm allowed to judge people about making weight because I've never missed weight in 44 fights. :)

Roxanne before judging people how about you win 3 in a row. The last time you did that was in 2008. You need to get back in the gym and off Twitter

I always try not to judge people because I don't know what happened behinds the scenes. But I advocate: TAKE A POINT from the first round! Who cares about the 20%? It doesn't effect the fight. Start the fight with a red card.

officials, if you call Green vs Gordon a no contest, what about Chris Curtis who got knocked down w a head clash & didn’t get a second to recover? Then judges deemed it a factor in him losing the fight. wtf man, you can’t judge fights differently casebycase

I’m so sad Nicco couldn’t fight and got stripped of the title. Other title holders were inactive for longer and didn’t get stripped. I’m sad ppl don’t recognize her skill and her status as champion, despite her beating tough ppl on TUF to earn the belt. I hope she’s okay.
