Rachael Ostovich Discusses the Recent Success for Hawaiian Fighters in the UFC

MMAjunkie Radio recently interviewed Rachael Ostovich, who debuted in the UFC at The Ultimate Fighter 26 finale by defeating Karine Gevorgyan in a catchweight bout. Below are some highlights.

Ostovich on the success of Hawaiian fighters last weekend: “I was lucky enough to share the weekend Yancy Medeiros and Max Holloway, and I feel like people are finally catching on that we’ve got some serious talent out here on the islands. If they give us some attention, we can put on a show. There’s so much more talent out there. It’s really unbelievable how much talent we have just on our little island.”

Ostovich on how the Hawaiian fighters want to represent their state: “I feel like we all want to represent our state, and we all want to do good. I feel like once we have that momentum going, we all feed off each other, working hard. We’re all being inspired by each other, and it shows in our fights.”
