UFC's Red-hot Octagon Girl
Red Dela Cruz, winner of the first Octagon Girl Search in Asia, works out five days a week to stay in shape
RED Dela Cruz works for Las Vegas-based mixed martial arts (MMA) giant Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), but says she prefers staying outside the cage to competing in it.
The svelte and bubbly Filipino model and winner of UFC's first Octagon Girl search in Asia, said: "I don't think I'm cut out to be a fighter. I'm probably too small for that!"
The 24-year-old added: "I would probably have to drink a lot of protein shakes to build myself up, and do a lot of MMA training too. Right now, I prefer to entertain the crowd outside the cage, and that's where I feel I am most comfortable."
