Cindy Dandois Gets Why It Took So Long For Her UFC Debut

Cindy Dandois spoke with MMAjunkie ahead of her UFC debut against Alexis Davis at UFC FIght Night 108. Highlights are below:

On not being brought in for TUF 18: “I heard it’s because I’m not the best striker in the world. But it’s MMA. It’s everything, so other points can cover it. I feel like everybody should be able to do what they’re best at.”

On making her debut at last: “I wondered (why it took so long to get the call) many times, because I really wanted to be here. It was my biggest dream. I worked very hard for it. But I get it, because of my style, that I had to wait longer.”

On her plan for the fight: “I’m going to throw her and grapple with her. That’s always my game plan. That’s the thing I like to do. I’m not going to say, like, I’m going to high kick her. I could say that, but it would not sound very sincere.”
