FOR THE RECORD!
The bout was scheduled for 115-125 lbs.
Kristen Gatz weighed in at 131 lbs (failed to make weight).
Jeana Pinelli weighed in at 121 lbs (fulfilled her commitment).
The day before the fight.
Kristen failed to make weight by six lbs and did not break one drop of sweat to try and make weight in the one hour given if you don't. Jeana accepted the fight anyways as she trained way too hard not to. That right there was our mistake as Kristen came into the cage looking over 140. Jeana was 118 the morning of the fight and walked into the cage under 120. At 125 lbs 10-20 lbs difference is very significant.
We got a lot to work on but we will never give up and have learned so much from this experience I know it made us better. She will always strive to be the best champion ever one day.
Jeana didn't want to go for a jumping guard guillotine and risk maybe getting slammed by a bigger opponent. We know Kristen is a wrestler so we expected her to try and take Jeana down to really go for the guillotine.
Even though we lost we feel like we won. We are very happy with her performance and have learned so much from this she is already a stronger and better fighter.
To those that have shown Jeana "BEAR" Pinelli support with your awesome comments in the past, present, and future words can't express how much we appreciate it and always will thank you!
