Cassidy Blaine woke up sore, as she rolled over and hit the alarm, cutting it off immediately before turning to her back again and throwing her arm over her eyes. The light outside had not yet erupted across the sky or into her bedroom window, and once again she wondered exactly why she was up this early a few moments before wondering if she really wanted to do what she was doing. Three years ago, she had been approached, just a girl in the mall, by a guy who introduced himself as a promoter looking for girls to make a few bucks on weekends holding up ring announcements at local fights each Friday and Saturday. She had spent years running and even lifting weights, and her body was firm, toned, and exactly what crowds at these fights enjoyed, even for the few seconds it took her to walk across a ring. And while she sounded skeptical at first, she called the man who quickly hired her and, after earning $200 the first weekend, dropped any hesitation she had.
The fights caught her attention too. She was not any sort of fighter herself, but the men inside the ring were warriors. The guys in the octagon, when the promoter handled MMA events, were even more violent. They trained hard, always worked harder than anyone else, and as they warmed up each night, exhibited a power she could appreciate up close. It was an exotic mix. By age 19, Cassidy had grown intoxicated with the fight circuit and she found work at larger and larger events. She began dating James "Dagger" Linwood, a Boston fighter with a propensity for injuring his opponent and a thick southie accent she couldn't resist. The relationship proved hot, and volatile, and to date, it had been both the best and the worst she had ever had. Six years older than her, Linwood knew exactly what he liked and what he liked was to ravish much younger, innocent girls like herself. And while he satisfied her in the bedroom, he could be abusive out of it and worse, she learned she was not the only filly in his stable. It was then that she split with him and hired an agent, focusing instead on a career of her own that featured modeling, work as a UFC ring girl, and eventually a local, east coast D-list celebrity.
As a ring girl for UFC 175 she was fortunate to be photographed in a shot with the new women's champion, Ronda Rousey. The picture was a crowd shot and as Cassidy stepped from the ring and along the front row, Rousey's eyes followed her and she cast a judgmental, perhaps even hateful look in Cassidy's direction. The fight blogs and magazine's picked it up and ran it, and stories popped up on the internet and throughout the community suggesting there was some bad blood, jealousy, lust, or perhaps simple hatred, any and all for reasons unknown, between the two girls. Surely, this young girl, unknown to the world, had done something to piss off Ronda. What was it? What could it possibly be? The truth was, nothing. But the effect was to thrust her into a spotlight she had never before seen, and people noticed. Months later, amidst the underground buzz of a fan base fired up for new meat, she was approached by a promoter.
"What do you think of fighting?" He had asked. At first, she was skeptical, but the thought nagged at her over time. "I could get you a promotional deal, get you trained. We can get you a few fights against easy opponents, build some hype, put a lot of money in your pocket," he had said. "If you want." She didn't. But the promoter kept at her. "Look," he had said. "You're the perfect mix of sex and, with the right training, power. I can get you in the game and I can make you big." By that time, she was struggling to pay rent and wondering what her future held, if anything beyond being ogled by men who paid $27 to watch guys fight each other. She thought about it and consulted with her family. Her brother had been a wrestler in college and had fought as an amateur. He offered to help her train. Nobody discouraged her. By her twenty-first birthday, Cassidy had entered the arena.
Now, three years later, training was taking its toll each day. Her muscles ached and required an hour of yoga most days just to get moving. She had never been so bruised and injured in her life. The injuries were typically nagging, nothing serious. But each day her body erupted with sensations until she stretched and got into the gym. She loved wrapping her hands, a peaceful, quiet time before sparring or grappling. She loved unwrapping them at the end of training, a signal that the job had been done for that day. She had not expected six to eight hour training days, nor the body that such days created. And when she had off days and time to relax, she truly felt great.
At 3-0 the fight game had come to her slowly. And while the first promoter had gotten her in the game as he promised, their relationship did not last long, and she signed with a larger media management and consulting group. But she still had a lot to learn. She had gained some victories and a following, and her confidence soared. Her fans began calling for a title shot. No way was she ready for that, and she knew it. She would get killed. And at the moment, she could only focus on Sheila Rounds, her next opponent in the lower division of Strikeforce, not remotely near the UFC and any meaningful championship match. If she got past Rounds, she hoped for a multiple fight deal with the UFC, though that was uncertain, and even then any match against a contender would possibly be like a lamb being fed to lions. She sometimes wondered if she could make it on the big circuit at all. It seemed like a steep, uphill, unforgiving road. And today felt that way as well.
As Cassidy climbed out of bed, she placed her feet squarely on the floor. She stretched and yawned, before stepping across the small, wood-floored room and pulling on a sports bra under a tank top and some small, cotton workout shorts. She stumbled around the dark room until she found her running shoes and yoga mat, before pulling a skull cap over her long hair and racing out in the cold morning air for the mile and a half run to the yoga studio. She would get in her hour, get in a run back home before a breakfast of egg whites and oatmeal and a two hour weight training session. She hoped the work would continue to pay off. She had come a long way, learning sound technique even if it had not been perfected yet, and getting her body in better and better shape. She wondered when the call would come for the larger deal that would pay her enough to train and fight full time, allowing her to quit her part time job waitressing at night. Hours later, a full training day behind her once more, she pulled her hair into a ponytail after climbing out of the shower and before throwing on some sleep pants and a tiny white t-shirt and preparing dinner. Unless and until that call came, she had to simply keep doing what she was doing. Discipline would be her path, but it was one that even she did not know whether or not she could take to any successful place.
