This article really touched me. I had no idea that MMA fighters could be treated so badly. It’s appalling that Mayra Bueno Silva had to endure the humiliation that she did at the hands of Julianna Pena. It’s even worse that her mental health was mocked while she was trying to recover from a traumatic experience. I am so glad that the fight was ruled a no contest and that Mayra was not penalized. It’s heartbreaking that she had to go through this and that the sport of MMA can be so cruel. It’s unacceptable and I hope that this serves as a reminder to all fighters to treat each other with respect and kindness.
