The sports world loves a true underdog story. As a fan of mixed martial arts, it is one of the greatest feelings to witness a fighter you love capture championship glory, especially through ups and downs, good times and bad. Sometimes when a fighter frees their mind and accepts their role as an underdog, they seem to be at their very best and are a very dangerous opponent for anybody that stands across from them inside the cage. The “nothing to lose” mentality creates such a perfect storm in the fighting world and makes an exciting opportunity for Jillian DeCoursey to overcome her underdog status at Invicta FC 49.

Every day, since before I even turned pro, has been dedicated to this. Everyone has a goal in this sport. The @InvictaFights 105 title has been my one and only goal. As always, I’ll be the underdog, but I tend to do good as the underdog.
I CAN!!!!! https://t.co/WSwuQLabUd
