Kedzie’s revelation
“It seems a very normal thing to do,” Kedzie tells BBC Sport.
“I’ve been hit in the head a lot so we might as well see what is in there and get some good out of it for data.
“If there is a way that I can still keep pushing in this field [of mixed martial arts] and advancing the cause of women, then yeah.”
“I want to give back to the women in this sport. Because, there are all these studies on male athletes’ brains and there might be something completely different from a female athlete’s perspective.”
“The knowledge base has grown considerably,” Kedzie said.
“As critical as I can be of the UFC, because they are the best game in town and you want any glaring mistakes to be fixed, the Performance Institute is paying more attention to studies and I think that’s great.”
