The duo has indeed begun to attract quite a bit of attention to their personal life as their professional life. But while the featherweight champion gets all bloodied up in the Octagon, Badell, even though wants to support him, simply cannot look away from his opponent’s fate.

Post the fight, according to MMA news, she revealed that she asked him to go easy on his opponents because she did not like that sight.

Reflecting along these lines, She stated, “I felt really bad for the other guy,” Uzcategui said. “I said, ‘Baby, you should have a little bit of mercy.’ He couldn’t have mercy because the guy that was supposed to stop the fight never did, so if one needs to die, it’s not gonna be my guy.”
