"I think the biggest difficulty was when I lost a fight, because I needed to have a good mindset to come back and continue working."
Getting back up might not be the easiest thing to do for anyone, but with an impressive record of 115-12 throughout her career, it is safe to say that Bastos has outdone each of her losses tenfold.
Mayssa Bastos focuses on ONE world title among her other career-highs
While Mayssa Bastos has always been familiar with hardships, she also managed to come out at the top on multiple occasions throughout her career.
That determination brought Bastos to the brink of glory in the upcoming ONE atomweight submission grappling world title match with the divisional ruler Danielle Kelly, and she wants nothing but victory.
In the same interview, she also told ONE:
