The woman on the right will be participating in WWE NXT season 3. She will go by the name Aloisia and her pro will be Vickie Guerrero. She is 6 feet 9 inches tall. Meaning she can almost stand eye to eye with the Big Show. Wonder how this is going to work out.

In a recent interview with GracieMag, Velasquez, who will take on UFC heavyweight champ Brock Lesnar at UFC 121 October 23 in Anaheim, Calif. says that his "tryout" for the UFC wasn't much more than an impromptu training session in Vegas set up by his manager, Bob Cook, who called Dana White and asked him to check out his star pupil. According to Cain Velasqez, the UFC president was so impressed with what he saw, he signed him without watching a single one of his fights. "I had two fights on my CV and wanted to fight in other shows before going to the UFC to get some experience. But It was really hard to get fights with other organizations, so my manager said: ‘We haven’t fought in a long time, we can’t wait any longer. It’s time to call up the UFC.’ He made the call, made Dana White an offer and we went to Vegas," Velasquez recalls. "We took two fighters with us and Dana watched me standing with those two fighters and doing Jiu-Jitsu with another two heavyweight athletes. He liked what he saw and told me I was in the UFC."
