Christina Tatnell recently had taken her first plane ride, but that wasn’t the reason she was shaking. She was backstage before her first professional fight – her first fight of any kind, actually. The woman who grew up as a sheltered girl in Australia was about to enter the pro stage, and the nerves were taking over in part because she was facing one of the people who inspired her to become a fighter at all. On that night in October 2012, she was going through a change. “(I remember) being in awe of the cameras and the noise of the one thousand plus people in attendance like it was yesterday,” Tatnell told MMAjunkie. Now, her tomorrows are looking brighter.
