Felice Herrig Reveals Battle With Mental Demons Over Weight
’ No, when you’re in there, a fight’s a fight. In a lot of ways, VanZant is the “big” name coming into this fight at Prudential Center, but in others, it’s almost as if this was the stage Herrig was destined for. Somebody had to fight her (VanZant), so I was like ‘I’ll be happy to stop that hype train.’ But at the same time, I’m not underestimating her, I’m not taking her lightly. “No offense, I know she got a lot of hype because she beat Kailin Curran, but Kailin Curran had just turned pro the year before. “I feel like whoever was gonna fight her was going to derail her hype train,” Herrig said of VanZant. I changed things to a more professional level and once I saw that I was hitting that next level, it re-motivated me and got me excited again to where I really felt that I was evolving again.
