LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - AUGUST 25: Bella Mir was defeated in her debut fight against Alex Apodaca at Dana White's Contender Series Season 10, Week 3 on August 25, 2026.

She decided to step back from social media to allow Bella to focus on her recovery and requested that people direct their frustration towards her instead of her daughter.
