Bellator flyweight champ Ilima-Lei Macfarlane once again delivered a memorable moment ahead of one of her fights on Saturday at Bellator 236.
In her second Bellator title defense on home soil in Hawaii, Macfarlane put on a show for the fans at Neal S. Blaisdell Arena in Honolulu, with an incredible walkout to the cage.
Watch it below (via Twitter):
The walkout wasn’t all for show, though. There was some deep meaning behind it, as ESPN’s Marc Raimondi detailed afterward on social media (via Twitter):
Macfarlane (11-0 MMA, 10-0 BMMA) defeated Kate Jackson (11-4-1 MMA, 3-2 BMMA) by unanimous decision at Bellator 236, giving her a fourth consecutive defense of her title.
