“We talked to her team and honestly, it's up in the air. We are not sure if she will return to BKFC. It seems like it will, but at the end of the day, if her heart and passion want to give MMA a new opportunity, we can give her that. We don't want to hold anyone back,” said Feldman, in an excerpt published by 'MMA fighting'.
A bet by the organization and brought in after the end of his contract with the UFC, VanZant was unable to meet expectations in 'bare-knuckle boxing'. So far, there have been two challenges and no positive results.
Paige's debut at BKFC took place in February 2021. At the time, the fighter faced Britain Hart and ended up losing in the judges' decision.
Months after the first stumble, in July, it was VanZant's turn to face an old acquaintance, Rachael Ostovich, whom the young woman had beaten during her UFC days. In the new challenge, another setback. Once again in the judges' decision, the former 'Ultimate darling' was overcome.
