2 min read
In an exciting turn of events, Paige VanZant, the iconic former UFC star and “Dancing with the Stars” finalist, is poised to make her highly-anticipated comeback in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) arena. While VanZant has found success outside of fighting through ventures like OnlyFans and modeling, her undying passion for combat sports continues to drive her to challenge herself in the ring.
David Feldman, President of BKFC, addressed the question of VanZant’s potential departure from the organization during a chat with MMA Fighting. Expressing his initial doubts, Feldman revealed that VanZant’s conversations with her team reassured him of her unwavering commitment.
“I actually questioned that myself, but she had a conversation with a couple of the guys on the team and I don’t think that she’s moved on,” Feldman shared. “I think she wants one more crack at it. I know that I want to give her one more crack at it, so I think we’re going to have at least one more run there.“
Feldman further praised VanZant’s fighting spirit and dedication to the sport, highlighting her impressive track record. Despite her 0-2 record in BKFC, he emphasized that VanZant always brings her best and challenges herself in each bout.
“Paige, she always comes to fight,” Feldman remarked. “Some people want to say, ‘She lost twice.’ She lost two close fights. She came to fight both times. She challenged herself both times. She doesn’t have to fight a day in her life ever again and she’s going to live a superstar life. She wants to challenge herself again.”
VanZant’s return to the BKFC serves as a testament to her enduring passion and unyielding determination. While she has achieved financial success through platforms like OnlyFans and her modeling career, VanZant’s decision to step back into the ring goes beyond monetary gains. It is fueled by her deep love for the sport and the burning desire to prove herself once again.
Her success outside of fighting, combined with her impressive UFC career and her memorable stint on “Dancing with the Stars,” has solidified VanZant’s status as an icon. She has become an inspiration to aspiring athletes and fans worldwide, showcasing her diverse range of talents and accomplishments both inside and outside the octagon.
Brace yourselves for another chapter in the storied career of Paige VanZant, as she continues to leave an indelible mark on the combat sports world.
