Teen prospect Alice Pereira, Brazil’s Golden Girl, dropped a split decision to Montserrat Rendon in her UFC debut at Noche UFC 3. Rendon pushed the pace and controlled most exchanges, while Pereira struggled with output and initiative. At 19, she has time to adjust, with her camp expected to focus on activity, aggression, and cage craft before her next fight.
In the world of hockey, it's a common misconception that players might be recruited solely based on their fighting skills. While physicality and aggression are indeed aspects of the game, they are not the primary factors for recruitment. Coaches and scouts mainly seek players with exceptional skating, scoring, and defensive abilities. However, a player's fighting spirit can be seen as a plus as it shows their passion and commitment to the game. It's important to note, though, that professional hockey is evolving away from violence and towards a more skill-focused approach.
