Vanessa Demopoulos made a big statement at UFC 270 with her win. However, what made more headlines was her post-fight celebration which saw her jump into the arms of Joe Rogan.
In her recent interview with BJPenn.com, Vanessa revealed that she had planned the celebration beforehand.
“I wanted that, I planned on that. My plan in my post-fight interview was to jump in Joe Rogan’s arms and he was with it, it was awesome. I wanted that,” she said.
She further went on to add why she quit exotic dancing to take up fighting.
“I can’t even put it into words. I’ve been dancing since I was 18-years-old and I knew I needed to put it to the side to focus on fighting. I had put on my whiteboard, bust you’re ass for thousands instead of shaking it for dollars. That was so powerful to me. I didn’t tell anyone I quit this time until after the fight, and I’m officially done which is awesome,” Vanessa added.
