UFC flyweight Julianna Miller fought with a heavy heart, having recently lost her grandmother, who raised her. After her victory against Ivana Petrovic at UFC Des Moines, Miller expressed her emotional connection to her grandmother and the importance of enjoying her journey in MMA. Winning the fight lifted her spirits, ending a two-fight losing streak. Miller wore her grandmother's clothing during the event and felt she carried her grandmother's spirit throughout the fight week. Looking ahead, she is eager to improve further and continue her career in UFC with gratitude.
My grandma raised me. I believe she got to watch me from heaven and one thing I really wanted her to know was that I can have fun doing this.
I think especially coming off of a few losses. You build up this fear or do I belong here? Do I deserve to be here? Am I a failure?
