Warrior Princess Beats Ph.D In Cage Match

Latest

Last night, moments after Zoila “Warrior Princess” Frausto said in an interview, “A lot of people think that most women in this sport [are] brutes… I’m feminine,” she punched and kneed a Ph.D in the face.

Frausto, who is 5’5″ and 120 lbs, was competing in a Bellator mixed martial arts event; she is a black belt in tae kwon do (her little sister is also a a MMA fighter) and had a record of 6 wins and 1 loss. She wears trunks trimmed with pink in the ring. It’s interesting that even in this day and age, she feels the need to point out that she “likes to be a woman” even though she also really enjoys punching, kicking and elbowing her opponents in the cage — as if the two were mutually exclusive.

Frausto’s challenger, Rosi Sexton (5’4″; 121 lbs.), holds a Ph.D in theoretical computer science.

You’ve got to love that both of these women defy preconceived notions of both what some people believe it means to be a woman (small and therefore weak) and also what it means to be a fighter (dumb, non-intellectual).

Also: You do not want to get on the bad side of either of these ladies. Frausto won the fight (in two minutes), but they’re both super tough.
