""That's crazy to think, especially where I came from and losing my first two fights, Contender Series and debut. It's crazy to come back the way that I did," Judice said. "I'm proud of myself for it because I know how much work it took - to be to do that and mental, work too, to be able to go in the cage and stay calm under all the pressure and everything.""
""I'm 26 years old and it's always been, growing up, I always played house and family and stuff with my sisters. So one of my dreams was to have my own house. So we recently just purchased a house," she said. "So yeah, that's one of my first big purchases with those few bonuses I got.""
""I've been buying a lot of sweets and stuff to bake because I'm a baker. So big purchases is a house and little purchases is just little things to feed my hobbies," Judice said. "I'm on a sourdough kick. I'm baking sourdough right now. My weight's really good so I can still eat some sourdough bread three weeks out. So that's great.""
Carli Judice earned a UFC contract after Dana White's Contender Series despite losing that bout, then lost her UFC debut by close decision. She followed those setbacks with three consecutive UFC wins and three straight bonus payments. The turnaround is attributed to intense physical and mental preparation and the ability to remain calm under pressure during fights. Bonus earnings allowed Judice to buy a house and invest in personal hobbies. She has been purchasing baking supplies, enjoys making sourdough, and reports her weight management still allows her to eat sourdough bread three weeks out. She will enter UFC Houston aiming to extend her streak.
