For three months, and the announcement of her fight against Erin Blanchfield, scheduled for this Saturday March 30 in Atlantic City (during the night from Saturday to Sunday French time), in New Jersey, Manon Fiorot has only one obsession: the cage. Focused on the flyweight title, which she dreams of conquering, the Frenchwoman has eliminated all her hobbies and outings, to only have MMA in mind.
The stakes are enormous. In the event of a victory against the New Yorker, who will fight almost at home, the Niçoise should get her chance for the title against the Mexican Alexa Grasso, currently injured but soon to return to competition. A golden opportunity, one year after having had to give it up following an operation on both knees.
