Paige VanZant is one of the most recognizable female personalities in the MMA realm. Having gained exposure through her UFC career, she has now made a successful entry into the unorthodox domain of adult modeling.

During her UFC career from 2013 to 2020, '12 Gauge' showcased her skills in both the strawweight and flyweight divisions. Surprisingly, in August 2020, she made a bold move to BKFC, although her transition to the new sport resulted in defeats in both of her bare-knuckle boxing matches.

VanZant is now dabbling with adult modeling on OnlyF*ns.

Paige VanZant recently faced criticism from her social media followers when she shared a collage video of her modeling career on Instagram. The backlash was primarily due to a caption that was difficult to comprehend, which led to confusion and negative reactions among her audience.

The caption read:

"Flashback to when I shot with @si_swimsuit a few years ago. Fun fact, my arm was severely broken during this shoot. I flew into Mexico for the day to shoot for the magazine then flew straight to Las Vegas for surgery to get a new plate put in my arm. Todally worth it."

What was Paige VanZant's UFC record?

Paige VanZant's introduction to the UFC in 2014 left a strong impression, as she received the Fight of the Night bonus for her debut. Over the course of her six-year tenure with the promotion, VanZant achieved a 5-4 record in the octagon.

After a series of early triumphs, including three consecutive victories, '12 Gauge' faced a setback when she was submitted by former women's strawweight champion Rose Namajunas. VanZant rebounded swiftly with a spectacular knockout win over Bec Rawlings in her next bout.

However, maintaining a consistent winning streak proved challenging for VanZant, as she experienced a mix of wins and losses. Following her win against Rawlings, she faced back-to-back defeats against Michelle Waterson and Jessica Rose-Clark.

Despite the setbacks, she showcased her resilience with a victory over Rachael Ostovich. VanZant was later submitted by Amanda Ribas in her final octagon appearance at UFC 251.
