“So now I’m going to be the cute one in the relationship?” Vanderford wrote.
Paige shook the MMA world last Wednesday afternoon (12) when she announced her transfer to the organization chaired by David Feldman. After not having her contract renewed with the UFC, the American rejected a proposal from Bellator and confirmed that her next commitments will be outside of mixed martial arts.
When he left Ultimate, after the categorical defeat to Amanda ribas, UFC 251, there was much speculation about a possible transfer of VanZant to Bellator. The possibility was considered given the good relationship that the athlete has with the company's president, Scott Coker and the fact that her husband is already a member of the organization's combat corps.
According to 'MMA Fighting', Coker's proposal did not please Paige, who continued to look for more attractive prices to continue fighting.
In a live broadcast late last Wednesday afternoon, Feldman, together with Paige, confirmed that the fighter should debut in the sport in early November.
At 26 years old, VanZant left Ultimate after nine fights, winning five and losing four. In her professional MMA record, the American has eight triumphs and five setbacks.
