Description

Ariana 'La Aguijon' Galán doesn't want any excuses, neither for her nor made against her. The young Honduran fighter is here to scrap until she can scrap no more. Though she initially joined the sport simply to provide for her family, she has blossomed and exploded under the guidance of famed trainer Paco Leon and has become one of Latin America's most popular athletes. Known for a fast, aggressive, and crowd-pleasing style that has seen her throw well over 800 punches in her last 3 fights, Galán seems to embody a 'don't get mad, get even' philosophy in the ring, no matter how flustered and annoyed she might look.

"No one likes getting punched in the face so it's total crap to say that fighters don't get mad... But there's a method to all of it. The fighters who find a way to channel that anger to become better fighters are the ones you really have to watch out for. "

Author's Note: I'm working on good techniques for getting blood on clothing. This didn't turn out too terribly but I had to do some postwork to get it looking like it is! Will keep trying!
