Charmaine who is already been called the underdog in the match coming up in February as soon as the card was announced on Tuesday with many already saying that Tweet has no chance, no way, can’t see it, to win.

Coming up in four weeks Charmaine will fight one of the best pound for pound fighter on the planet in Cris Cyborg. The team is working hard and yes some media say since Charmaine got knocked out in eighteen seconds and what they call a lopsided loss to Julia Budd and it’s the only option for Invicta makes this fight hard to promote but they are looking to make this fight not easy way to the UFC for Cyborg.

As you may know she always been a fitness junkie at the age of thirteen or fourteen back on the farm she popped in a “Sugar” Ray Leonard VHS tape which had boxing aerobics on it. One thing leads to another and here we have it women’s mixed martial arts.

Cord, Wiley Jiu Jitsu and her team have been working the past few weeks to contact  “Sugar” Ray Leonard’s team, they sent a letter off not thinking anything would come of it, Charmaine had no knowledge of what was going on, that was not the case not only did something come about but “Sugar” Ray took time out of his busy schedule (it was told that “Sugar” has never done something like this before) to call Charmaine and give some words of encouragement for her upcoming fight in Los Angeles. The call lasted about 20 minutes according to Charmaine in which the former champ let her know that he was also known as the underdog in his previous fights and told her some very encouraging words “Believe in yourself” “It’s in your heart” that made her say “If the fight happen today I would knock out Cyborg.”

“Sugar” Ray did let Charmaine know that he might make an appearance at the fight to see her fight which would be a dream come true for her since it was his aerobic boxing VHS tape that started her career what a way to finish the night with a win? and meeting the man that help start your career.

Cord, Charmaine, Wiley and her teammates are all excited about the phone call and will use this a stepping stone on preparing for this fight and take to heart everything that was said by “Sugar” Ray Leonard.

Cord Crowthers Charmaine’s manager wanted to thank “Sugar” Ray’s people, team, publicist and anyone involved from his team to make this happen.

SportsGeeks will have more on Charmaine’s training camp in the coming weeks up to fight week stay tuned.
