Letson Employs A Non-Stop Training Mentality

As a current member of the United States Air National Guard, Leah Letson has been through tougher situations than six weeks sequestered from the world as a member of The Ultimate Fighter 28 cast. That doesn’t mean she would go through the process all over again.

“Probably not,” she laughs. “It wasn’t terrible and it wasn’t the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but it wasn’t easy. It was a great experience, though. It’s kind of like basic training where you’re glad that you did it but you wouldn’t want to go through it again.”

That’s understandable, as Letson did actually get signed to the UFC before the show for a UFC 222 bout against Yana Kunitskaya in March before Kunitskaya was pulled from the bout to face featherweight champ Cris Cyborg.
