Michelle Nicolini Talks Retirement And Gives Advice To Next Generation
Michelle Nicolini is one of the most decorated champions in the history of jiu-jitsu and on Sunday night at the Walter Pyramid in Long Beach, California she fought her last match ever. After the dust had settle from her finals match against Mackenzie Dern, FloGrappling caught up with the legend to talk about her career, her advice to the next generation of women in jiu-jitsu, and what MMA has in store for her.
When I started competing we didn't have enough girls but today girls show up with exciting matches, sometimes they are more exciting than the mens's matches. The doors are open for them now. Fight from the heart, keep training hard, the doors are open.
