UFC star Molly McCann shares 'trauma' of holding girlfriend's hand in public

UFC star Molly McCann has said she still struggles with being gay even to this day.

The Liverpudlian fighter opened up about her experience with her sexuality when speaking to sports promoter Eddie Hearn on the BBC's podcast No Passion No Point. Molly, more affectionately known as ‘Meatball’, talked about how she would still get looks and abuse when she holds her girlfriend's hand in public.
