Reality TV is set up to make people entertaining. A good person with values and principles is not good television.

If I could have had everything exactly the way I wanted, this is how I would have written it down. Win all my fights in the first round, then go to the UFC and headline a show, and have it as a pay-per-view and at home. People's dreams don't come true like that.

Even before I was a fighter, I was a daddy's girl.
