MMAjunkie recently spoke to Bellator MMA fighter Anastasia Yankova, who is set to make her Bellator debut at Bellator 152 against Anjela Pink. The fight card is being held in Turin, Italy later today. Below are some highlights.

Yankova on fighting for Bellator: “I just feel overwhelmed. I’m happy to be part of Bellator. I’m on the right path for my dream.”

Yankova on Bellator expanding: “It’s undeniable. Bellator has expanded a lot over the last couple of years. Even back home the exposure has elevated. The buzz has increased in the gym. It’s a good thing.”

Yankova’s thoughts on her opponent: “My opponent has similar MMA experience. We’ve both had two fights. Even though she had two amateur fights, the level of MMA in the U.S. is so much higher. So amateurs are not that far behind professionals. Our experience level is similar.”
