Russian woman competing in the UFC flyweight division Daria Zhelezniakova spoke about the difficulties of maintaining a diet while preparing for fights.
—To be honest, it’s difficult for me. Sometimes I myself am surprised at how well I cope with not eating tasty treats. Sometimes I replace it with honey and dates, but before training, not before bed. And so I try to replace it with communication with friends. When I was in Russia, I moved on to spiritual moments. I went to the theater and the cinema. Here I go to music concerts, but it doesn’t always work out, because the conditions here are different and I don’t know everything yet,” Zhelezniakova was quoted as saying by MMA.Metaratings.ru.
Zheleznyakova held her last fight in the Ares promotion in April 2023, where she defeated Frenchwoman Marie Loiseau by technical knockout in the first round.
On October 15, during the UFC Vegas 81 tournament, the Russian will face her Brazilian opponent, Tainara Lisboa.
