Since I've started fighting it has taught me a lot about self respect, self confidence and self control.

It's a very big deal to me to remain the same person because I know all of this is going to be gone one day and I'm just going to have myself.

I find that whoever you are as a person is how you're gonna fight, and every basic instinct kind of comes out at that moment.

There's so much I want to do. I love emotions, I love drama, I love comedy and I also want to take action up to another level, I love comics.

I cannot say where I will be in 5 yearsscratch that, tomorrowBut I know that wherever you find me, I will remain true to myself with a genuine smile on my face and happiness in my heart.

A lot of people enjoyed the film 'Haywire' and a lot of people have mixed feelings on it but regardless, a lot of people have said really wonderful things about it being my first experience, that the fighting they absolutely enjoyed. So I think I've gotten a lot more fans, actually.

I was always bigger than the other girls. My sisters are very, very beautiful and very skinny, and I've always had a more muscular body. So I grew up with a different mentality.
