Paige VanZant is set to return to martial arts, according to match leaks.
It’s been nearly three years since we last saw the former UFC star fight, and we’re not sure if VanZant will ever fight again or how much money she makes just from her OnlyFans and large social media following. Many people have doubts when they think about what is going on.
However, VanZant achieved stardom through fighting and would continue to do so into his 30s.

However, the announcement appears to have been premature, as Brooke hilariously reacted to the news on social media on Thursday.
“I feel like everyone found out I was pregnant before I did,” Brooke wrote in X. “For the record, I’m not pregnant, I’m just saying some incompetent people leaked shit too early.
Just to be clear, I’m not pregnant. I’m just referring to incompetent people leaking shit too soon 🤝🏻

Misfits Boxing promoter Mams Taylor was also upset that the match between VanZant and Brook was announced earlier than planned.
“Absolutely asshole!” Taylor wrote about the leak in X.
That’s completely stupid!

VanZant has not yet commented on the booking, but “12 Gauge” said in an interview with MMA Fighting that he is locked and loaded for his boxing debut early this year.
“My manager called me the day before yesterday and asked me to fight,” VanZant said in February. “The boxing match, I went to the fight. I don’t know if I can give you the details because I don’t have a contract yet. I accepted the fight. “Originally, the date they gave me was 3. It was the 23rd of the month, which was perfect. Yeah, I’m going to have one more fight before I’m 30, because I’m going to be 30. [on] March 26th.
“So I said to my manager, yes, I’ll take it, I’m going back to boxing. I was really excited. This opportunity was really great. So it was perfect, it was an eight-week camp, I I know it’s not March 23rd because it doesn’t take long to get stressed out or overthink it.
“After I accept it, they’re like, look, we’re going to move it to the next location. [May or June]. We’ve heard both dates, so once we have complete information we can release it on the podcast. I accepted a boxing match, that will be my next fight. It’s really, really exciting. ”
And it’s exciting. VanZandt has yet to box professionally, but he made a brief appearance in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) in 2021, and has two bouts against Britten Hart and former UFC foe Rachel Ostovich at some point. I also lost.
VanZandt was scheduled to face Charisa Sigala the following year, but the booking was ultimately scrapped twice.
Long before his BKFC days, the American made his UFC debut at the age of 20 and went 5-4 in the promotion before leaving the UFC in 2020. VanZant has competed against the likes of Michelle Waterson and Bec Rawlings, and even headlined a UFC event with former fighters. 2015 Champion Rose Namajunas.
PVZ’s opponent Elle Brook has had a very different career path. The 26-year-old got her start on social media, and the model and influencer has amassed a sizeable fan base on OnlyFans, among other platforms.
Brooke is also an adult film star, but don’t let that fool you. She can also fight. The British boxing record stands at 4 wins and 1 loss, with her last victory coming against AJ Bunker at Misfits 12 in January.
