At Wednesday’s open workouts, Calvillo told MMA Junkie what it feels to be grueling ahead of her UFC on ESPN 7 bout with Marina Rodriguez.
Calvillo loves what she does for a living
Unlike most other fighters, Calvillo is enjoying her time at the pre-event camp to the fullest.
For the Strawweight contender, a fight week is as much enjoyable as her birthday week, she said in the scrum, but minus the cake.
Calvillo understands that the challenge in front of her is not an easy one, especially with Rodriguez being a fighter who is yet to be defeated in her professional career and is riding on a two-win streak at UFC.
But she has enough faith in her training and abilities, which she hopes to put into use not only to beat Rodriguez, but to achieve her ultimate goal of becoming “the baddest woman on the planet”.
The fight will take place at UFC on ESPN 7 at Capital One Arena in Washington D.C. on Saturday, December 7.
