I’ve been attempting to climb the rankings, as you understand, for some time now, and it looks as if each time I get a ranked opponent, uh, they pull out, or they get pulled up, or one thing occurs.
It simply looks as if it’s not certain to occur,” Miranda Maverick stated. “A lot of the top 15 girls don’t seem to want to fight, either. Even though it was a short-notice replacement, it was five weeks—not like it was two weeks. So, it’s very frustrating that nobody ranked would take it.”
