I think I came up in fighting in a really technical way. If you've ever seen my fights, you know I love distance, I love technique.

Fighting is my career, it's what I love to do, but I am taking offers and trying to expand because the more I expand myself, the more valuable I become to promoters.

A lot of people enjoyed the film 'Haywire' and a lot of people have mixed feelings on it but regardless, a lot of people have said really wonderful things about it being my first experience, that the fighting they absolutely enjoyed. So I think I've gotten a lot more fans, actually.

Only when I came to America did I think of myself as British.

I came to love, I came into my own.

I came to acting in a very circuitous way.
