Dandois said that she was not prepared for the assault and was taken completely by surprise. She admitted that following the breakup, the ex-boyfriend had been threatening her, but she had never taken the threats seriously.
“Before I knew it, I got slapped in the face. My nose is broken and crooked. There is also a deep cut that was stitched with seven stitches. It will be a scar for life. Hopefully, they will be able to straighten my nose again. I should have taken the threats seriously from the beginning, but always hoped that he would cool down. Not so. ”
She went on to say that it was her MMA training that came to her aid and ensured she did not suffer any further injuries.
