Former UFC flyweight, Paige VanZant, will make his much anticipated Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship debut against Britain Hart next weekend. ’12 Gauge’ fought out her contract with the UFC and joined BKFC as she was looking to try something new. She certainly has a stern challenge in her new venture.

Fans have been vocal in expressing their concern about VanZant as they think it might hamper the gorgeous looks of the prized fighter. But VanZant herself doesn’t seem worried at all. Instead, she is confident to showcase her abilities in the new promotion and doesn’t mind getting hurt to entertain her followers.

She also made it clear that she doesn’t like the way haters are treating her off late.

“My idea was if you talk sh*t about somebody, then you should be willing to say that to their face. And not a single person who has said anything negative about me publicly has been willing to say it to my face, and I’ve seen people in person,” said VanZant.

“All the negativity about ‘Oh! My face!’ Grow up!” she said. “It’s a face, and it’s mine, and I can do whatever I want with it, and guess what, I’m still going to be beautiful, even if I get cut open. It’s not a big deal… That’s so condescending to think of your beauty as being important,” she added.

VanZant will look to prove a point on her debut in her new organization and put the doubts to bed once and for all. However, she will have her hands full against a tough opponent in Hart.

Paige VanZant indicated she might return to MMA in the near future

VanZant suffered a submission loss to Amanda Ribas in her final UFC appearance at UFC 251. She also revealed that her contract with BKFC allows her to take an MMA fight. Meanwhile, ’12 Gauge’ who joined the prestigious American Top Team revealed that her move has rekindled the fire inside her to return to MMA again.

But she is currently focused on sharpening her tools in boxing. Maybe when the opportunity presents itself, we will see her back in MMA.

How will VanZant fare in her BKFC debut? Are you excited to see her back in action?
