WATCH: 10 quickfire questions with UFC Dublin’s Aisling Daly

Ais the Bash, quick as a flash

Darragh Murphy

We know what you’re thinking… what’s Aisling Daly’s favourite MMA nickname?

Well we found out that Filthy Tom Lawlor gets the honour when we asked the only Irishwoman competing in the UFC to answer our 10 quickfire questions earlier this week.

Ais the Bash takes on highly touted Brazilian strawweight Ericka Almeida at UFC Dublin on October 24th and we got the chance to sit down with Daly in the build-up to her third official octagon outing.

It’s no surprise that Conor McGregor comes up in conversation when we asked her who was the hardest hitter she’s met while she offers up some sage advice to young fighters taking up the sport of MMA.

You can see Daly’s next fight when the UFC returns to the 3Arena in an event headlined by a lightweight tilt between Joseph Duffy and Dustin Poirier and tickets, which are now on sale, can be purchased through Ticketmaster.
