"I intend to do some training and Muay Thai fights to get back into the ring, and soon be able to meet great fighters like Cyborg [Santos], India [Gomes] and Carina Damm who, despite being in [weight classes] above mine, I admire a lot and mirror professionally." -- Fabiana Belai, the Muay Thai fighter who some are calling "the Brazilian Gina Carano"

"She's the most promising thing I've seen in my gym in terms of talent, speed and technique. I'm sure that she's soon going to be bad for the other competitors in the category up to 58kg (128 pounds)." -- trainer Paulo Nikolai of Fighters Camp
