Prospect Elle Wagman On Move To ATT With Fiancée Grant Dawson “The Idea Of Something New Was Attractive To Us”
Interview with Elle Wagman above
Elle Wagman (4-0) recaps her third-round submission victory over Cristina Crist (1-2) at FAC 12 on Feb. 6. Elle also spoke about her nerves going into the fight, her future at 105lbs and moving to Florida to train at American Top Team with fiancée, UFC lightweight Grant Dawson.
“We’ve been talking about (the move) for a little bit. I think we were both kind of burnt out. We’ve both lived in the Midwest our whole lives. The idea of a fresh place, better weather and something new was something attractive to both of us. (Grant’s) also a point where he could use the training partners, they have a lot of bodies for him Florida. And just the different looks, like he’s been in the same place for eight years and he’s ready for something new.”
