Description

MMA Fighting's Mike Heck brings you the story of PFL lightweight Olena Koleznyk, and how Russia's invasion of her country Ukraine turned her world upside down. In this mini-documentary, Koleznyk shares her journey from Kyiv to Las Vegas, the help she received along the way, how close she was to going back to join the army before a conversation with her family took that option off the table, fighting for more than just herself, and more.
