This beautiful angel is named Ashlynn. She is 6 years old and a cancer survivor and fighter! She currently lives in Huntington Beach and wants to start training martial arts!

Ashlynn and her mother were selected as winners of the #cyborgnation YouTube challenge. Unfortunately my team was unable to secure the steps needed in time to allow young Ashlynn to step on stage for the weigh-ins on Friday. However, Dana White came through in an amazing way!

After hearing Ashlynn’s story he has arranged for her and her guests to go backstage after the weigh-ins to meet all the fighters, AND THEN he is treating them to tickets inside his personal seating section at #ufc214!! Amazing to see Dana help give this girl such a memorable experience!

I want to thank the UFC and their team for working together to help give Ashlynn the weekend of a lifetime #ufc214 this Saturday!
