Silva
for the vacant women’s flyweight title at UFC

UFC 332 title challenger Cong Wang details sparring at Team
Alpha Male

Part of Wang’s preparation for UFC 332 included training at Team
Alpha Male, where she said her sparring partners began going harder
against her after experiencing her striking firsthand. According to
Wang, teammates who might go easier when sparring with other women
instead increase their intensity against her.

“Yes, that’s true,” Wang said in a pre-fight interview. “They will
go easy against the other girls, but when they spar with [me], they
find the difficulty in the level of striking. They will go harder.
They will even swing against [me]. That’s why [I am] treated like
boys in the gym.”

Wang enters her upcoming title fight on a four-fight winning
streak, most recently defeating Tracy
Cortez
by unanimous decision. Silva, meanwhile, is unbeaten in
eight UFC appearances and holds victories over former champions
Jessica
Andrade
, Alexa
Grasso
and Rose
Namajunas
.
