Roxanne Modafferi Gets The 'Wink' From Fedor
On Saturday night female Strikeforce fighter Roxanne Modafferi (13-4) will take on Marloes Coenen as part of the preliminary card of the “Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Rogers” event, and if time permits, her bout will also be aired on CBS.
Modafferi, who is based in Japan, will make her Strikeforce debut and is very excited with being part of the event.
In the video above she talks about buying a PS2 and in her MySpace blog, Modafferi’s excitement is very evident.
So I met Marloes yesterday and I got her autograph. She was like, “I can’t believe we’re gonna fight and you’re asking me to sign your magazine!”
Then I saw Fedor in Sports Authority with his Russian Posse (scary guys with long beards! XD) and introduced myself and shook his hand and got his autograph! Then we ran into each other again at the doctor’s and he kind of winked at me as I was leaving. XD XD I was gonna ask him “How do I REALLY pronounce your name?” but I was nervous and forgot. ^^;;; I must have seemed like SUCH a fan girl…
I am so so so so pumped to be here. I’m not even nervous or thinking about the fight, because when I think about fighting, I get so excited I just wanna jump out of my skin or puke or something. ^^;; So I’m actually trying to think of other things…
Modafferi defeated Coenen in 2007 via split decision and is considered one of the best female fighters in the world.
Props to FanHouse.com for the story.
