“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.
