Fans consider the Brazilian Mixed Martial Artist as a staunch 115-pound contender. She is a fan favorite who makes her fights a treat to watch. As rugged as she is inside the octagon, she remains pretty humble outside the game. Shedding some light on her attitude, she said:
“Some fighters, they put a star in their mind and think, ‘Oh, I’m the best.’ No, slow down because our life is too fast. The fighter life is too fast. We need to know who you are. You’re not the best to anybody. So you need to be humble with a good heart and good vibes. Be like me.”
Ribas is one fighter to look upon, not just the way she presents herself inside the cage, but also the way she carries herself once she steps outside the octagon.
