One day, someone’s going to write a book about Liz Carmouche and they’re not going to be wanting for compelling material from a compelling life. But the 35-year-old flyweight contender isn’t interested in looking back yet.
“No, not at all,” says Carmouche with no hesitation. “I’m too busy looking forward to possibly look back and think about everything that I’ve accomplished and everything that I’ve overcome to get here.”
Fair enough. Maybe that’s why “Girlrilla” is still adding chapters to her story long after most would have said, “Okay, that’s good enough, I’m done.” And even though she’s starting to make moves up the flyweight ladder heading into Saturday’s bout with Lucie Pudilova, the Californian is as hungry as ever.
