Do you think that being an MMA fighter is almost the same as being an OnlyFans model? You might not, but former fighter turned adult content creator Paige VanZant makes a case that they might be more similar, if you hear her out that is.
Paige From Where?
While her fight record is far from impressive, VanZant has become one of the most popular fighters on social media at this time.
Whether people see her more as a fighter versus an OnlyFans model however depends on where you first saw her. While she was in the UFC over a seven year period, her viral fame blew up and helped her earn more money stripping on OnlyFans than she ever did fighting in the cage.
More recently, she fought bare knuckle in the BKFC and has teased a 2024 return.

Paige VanZant: Fighter vs ‘Content Creator’
On a recent episode of her podcast A Kicka** LoveStory, VanZant made the claim that being on OnlyFans was similar to being a UFC fighter.
“I am selling my body to the UFC like literally, I sold my body to the UFC. I got broken bones, my face cut up, like injured, probably concussions, I got a broken nose, my arm broken four times, I tore my shoulder, isn’t that the same thing?”
While the logic might be there, getting paid to post adult content online and getting your nose broken on a regular basis are two pretty different extremes.
VanZant in a recent interview expressed her determination to return to Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) to prove her mettle as a professional fighter.
Her comeback follows the disappointment of a canceled bout in London in 2022, just days before the event.
