Swedish strawweight sensation Josefine “Thunder” Knutsson won her UFC debut in dominant fashion as she defeated Marnic Mann via unanimous decision at this past Saturday’s Noce UFC.
After the fight, the Swede gave her thoughts on her future in the UFC and
“I’m a fighter, and I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. I’m just going to stay ready for whatever opportunity shows up for me. I’m not going to turn down (anyone). I want to have more fights. I have to be realistic, but I feel like my body, my mindset, everything is perfect, and I just want to have more fights,” Knutsson said at the Noche UFC post-fight press conference.
“This is my passion and this is my life, and I waited for it for a long time. We just go for it.”
With an impressive 7-0 record and a dominant UFC debut, “Thunder” is all about taking her fighting to the next level and showing the world her skills as an MMA fighter.
“I think it’s all about me – what I have to improve. It doesn’t matter who I have in front of me. When I got this opportunity two weeks ago, it was like, of course I’m going to take this opportunity. I never backed down. I know that being a part of UFC will only make me an even better fighter because I love challenges, and I’m going to show UFC new sides of me all the time.”
