So we move on, we've got Leigh Callahan here and your opponent is across the table from
you.
I could feel the excitement of you coming into this one.
We spoke to you earlier on in the day.
Tell me about how you're feeling about getting the opportunity to finally compete because
for the women in this country, it's so difficult to get opponents, isn't it?
Yeah, it's so hard, so I'm excited that I actually have something to do because I'm
something for the quality.
Yeah, and Chloe, it's the same for you, you were telling me.
And this has been an ongoing team for all of the female fighters in Ireland.
can seem to fight anybody or find anybody to fight because often times the female fighters
get to know each other and end up training together so there's a real limited pool of
opponents which you get to make the walk under the lights next week. Are you excited?
I'm buzzing for it. I'm ready to see her.
Lea, how does the fight look next week?
For me, I haven't got to express my full mixed martial arts. Do you know what I mean?
I feel like people just think I'm a striker but I'm actually more
around the people think so I'm looking forward to actually get to show me as
an MMA fighter and not just a striker. Yeah and Chloe will bring that same
question to you. How do you think the fight looks next Saturday now?
What can we expect? I think it will be fireworks and I know Leah's a really good
opponent to be going up against I know she's training hard she's in there
doing the work, seeing this myself. So it will be just two good heads clashing.
And finally I'll come to Sean Brazill and Kim McCormick on either side of me here.
Sean Brazill, I grew up knowing a family called the Brazill. So that's why I keep
slipping back into that one. Yeah. Looking forward to getting back in action next week.
Your opponent sitting here across me, you have an opponent, you have a date. How excited are you?
It's been a long time coming, you know, I've been with Cage since October last year.
It was meant to start the year, a couple of things got on the way, but we're back now.
I'm ready to go.
It's like a cold spring ready.
