5 THINGS YOU DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT ALESHA ZAPPITELLA

[/av_textblock] [/av_section] [av_one_half first av_uid=’av-1cuqos1′] [av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=” av-medium-font-size=” av-small-font-size=” av-mini-font-size=” av_uid=’av-jl0af4h5′ admin_preview_bg=”]

WHEN AND WHY DID YOU START IN MMA?
I started wrestling when I was 5 years old and I fell in love with MMA at 19 years old.

DO YOU HAVE ANY HEROES AND WHY?
My heroes are my parents, Scott and Zori Zappitella, because I didn’t grow up the most privileged but I saw how hard they worked to give my brother and me everything they possibly could to give us a better life and give us opportunities they never had. They showed us how to be hard workers and never give up.

WHAT ARE YOUR HOBBIES AND INTERESTS OUTSIDE OF FIGHTING?
Other than taking my youth team to tournaments and competing in BJJ tournaments, I also enjoy reading mindset books, learning about astrology, playing with my puppy Cruz the Miniature Pinscher, and doing anything outdoors such as shooting and fishing.

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON FIGHTING FOR INVICTA FC?
I am so thankful to be fighting for Invicta FC, they are the biggest promotion for women and I’m excited to showcase my abilities and prove that I’m meant to be here.

WHEN FIGHT FANS HEAR YOUR NAME WHAT DO YOU WANT THEM TO THINK AND REMEMBER?
I want fight fans to hear my name and know that they’re about to watch me put on a good show and know that I go out and give it all my every fight. I also want fans to remember me for how grateful I am for them and everything who has ever believed in me or pushed me to be the best me I can bet.
