Moras has already raised nearly $1,500 of a $10,000 goal. She is 1-1 in the Octagon and hasn’t fought in exactly two years. In her last fight, “Cheesecake” made $10,000 in defeat to current top contender Jessica Andrade.

The last UFC fighter to start a GoFundMe to raise money for fight costs was Paul Felder. Last year ahead of a bout in South America, he asked for donations so he could afford to fly his cornermen to the fight’s destination of Brasilia, Brazil.
