Five foot four, 115 pound, twenty one year old beauty Paige "12 Gauge" VanZant is one of the up and coming female MMA fighters in the world today. She's not only a cage fighter but a model as well.
And she's also a dancer, former cheerleader, ring girl and she plans to become a gourmet chef.
Sounds like she has a plan doesn’t it?
Paige started out in martial arts taking classes with her dad because he wanted her to learn and she had been on the receiving end of some bullying in school, so Paige gave it a shot. She became a ring girl but wanted closer to the action and finally got her wish, training first at the House of Ryu Gym in Las Vegas, and then with Team Alpha Male.
Paige had her first fight on June 30th, 2012 against Jordan Nicole Gaza at UWF - Tournament of Warriors Finale. She won that fight via Split Decision.
Her next fight was a Unanimous Decision win over Amber Stautzenberger at PFS - Premier Fight Series 2 on September 22nd, 2012.
Paige's first loss came at the hands of Tecia Torres on January 5th, 2013 at Invicta FC 4 - Esparza vs. Hyatt via a Unanimous Decision.
Her last fight was a win over Alex Chambers at UFC 191 - Johnson vs. Dodson 2 on September 5th, 2015 via Submission (Armbar)
Given time, I think Paige may be right up there with the big names in just a little while. The difference in her between her third and fourth fight was pretty incredible.
