What the Heck, Episode 22: Shana Dobson, Julia Avila, Cheyanne Buys, Brent Primus and Joe Solecki

On this week’s episode of What the Heck, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck speaks with UFC women’s flyweight Shana Dobson (8:58) as she recaps her massive upset win over Mariya Agapova at UFC on ESPN 15 this past Saturday night, talks not buying the “Agapova gassed out” chatter, the move to Elevation Fight Team, and what it meant to have Mick Maynard’s belief in her.

The newest member of the UFC’s strawweight division Cheyanna Buys (35:57) discusses earning a contract on Dana White’s Contender Series with a unanimous decision win over Hillarie Rose, how she found MMA and how her parents supported her decision no matter what, meeting her husband—and fellow prospect—JP Buys, direct messaging Dana White over the years, and when she hopes to make her octagon debut.
