Who are you?
What's happening people? It's me, Molly McCann, the UFC fighter. Make sure to ask me a question. It can be absolutely anything.
Why is your nickname Meatball Molly?
My nickname is Meatball Molly, because when I fell into MMA, I used to work at Subway, so I didn't get a student loan to go to university. I had to work me way through and to provide for myself. So I used to work the night shifts at Subway, I'd see everyone coming in rotten drunk. I'd be jealous to death because that wasn't me. And I used to try and make the best sandwich out of everyone in the shop. And then I'd go to the gym the next day and me coach Paul Remy joked one day, you smell of meatballs, you, and I think it was more the ha and cheese bread to be honest, but Meatball and Molly kind of stuck. And I'd probably say since about 16, everyone calls me meatball.
How long have you been a UFC fighter?
I've been in the UFC for four years. I started MMA on the 20, no, the 24th of February, 2013, so that's coming up to nine years from the day started coming up to 10 years next year.
