Alaska FC 136 marked Tynanes’ second professional MMA fight, following a successful pro debut last March when she choked out Avril Straub in the very first-round.  Prior to making the move to MMA, Tynanes, who was undefeated as an amateur, already had a background in combat sports, being a former collegiate/freestyle wrestler who placed second at nationals during her first year in college, she is also a black belt division naga championship winner. She trains at the Jesus is Lord gym in Hawaii, along with UFC star, Rachael Ostovich.
