Apparently tough cookie UFC honcho Dana White has a soft spot for Girl Scout cookies and sales pitches by cute kids. <\/p>\n

When Araya Gomez, the daughter of UFC fighter Michelle Waterson, needed a big sale for her <\/p>\n

campaign to sell 2,000 boxes of Girl Scout cookies<\/a><\/p>\n

, one of the people she hit up via Twitter was her mom\u2019s boss. And what do you know, her sales pitch worked. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the cutest sales pitch I\u2019ve ever seen in my life!!! This is <\/p>\n

\u2019s daughter. I\u2019m going to buy 1000 boxes of Girl Scout cookies!!!,\u201d White said in a tweet earlier this week. <\/p>\n

Waterson offered an explanation for the sales job on Instagram, saying \u201c(she) wanted to give her sale one last push so she thought it would be good to reach out to my boss. I would say she is quite the cookie boss. <\/p>\n

\u201cAs a child, there are movements in your life that shape you into who you will become as an adult!\u201d Waterson said in a second post. \u201cIt\u2019s important to encourage confidence, and more importantly encourage relationahips! Reaching out, talking, connecting, taking risks, and growing is so important. Thank you <\/p>\n

@danawhite<\/a><\/p>\n

for helping us teach this lesson to our little munckin! She is over the moon!\u201d <\/p>\n

The 34-second video by Waterson\u2019s daughter clearly hit the mark with White, a gruff, no-nonsense dude who doesn\u2019t take crap from anyone. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a tough cookie, too, cuz I\u2019m the boss of Girl Scouts,\u201d the precocious youngster, who goes by the handle @karatecutie on Instagram, said in her pitch to UFC \u201cboss\u201d White. \u201cSo, from one boss to another, help me reach my goal of selling 2,000 boxes of cookies \u2026 they will deliver right to you. If you have any problems with your fighters or your business, let me know. My door is always open.\u201d <\/p>\n

Waterson, a 33-year-old from Colorado who goes by the nickname The Karate Hottie and once worked as a Hooter\u2019s waitress, has posted a 16-6 record in MMA. She is 4-2 in six UFC fights and has won her last two, decisions over Felice Herrig and Cortney Casey. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
