Montana De La Rosa spoke with reporters following her win over Rachael Ostovich at The Ultimate Fighter 27 Finale. You can see highlights below per MMAjunkie:

On what the win means to her: “Of course it means everything to me (to win). I want to keep working toward that belt, and that’s the dream. Being here, it just feels so surreal. (I want to thank) everybody whose helped me this far, and now I have so much more far to go.”

On sticking to the flyweight division: “I kind of started my weight cut a little bit late I probably should have started it earlier. … The plan’s definitely to stay at 125. I’m not making that 115 cut again.”

On her next fight: “I would love to get on as soon as I can. Because in December they waited six months to put me back on, so I would love to fight in a few months. That’d be great.”
