Sarah and her mom at a jiu-jitsu tournament.
Back when Jon Jones fought Daniel Cormier at UFC 182 a series of peculiar circumstances required Sarah to order the fight on pay-per-view and watch it with her mother and grandmother.

Sarah explained why in an article for Fightland.

Mayweather vs. Pacquiao
You may think this weekend’s superfight of the centuryforevermillennium is between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, but it isn’t. Not really.
It’s really about their competing musical surrogates Justin Bieber and Dan Hill.
Sarah wrote about this musical tilt for Fightland.
