BARE-KNUCKLE star Paige VanZant shocked her loyal followers to the core with a brand new lung-busting gym video.

The former UFC star, 28, is preparing for her third BKFC bout after her London showdown with Charisa Sigala was cancelled.




Paige is now due to fight again in Denver this October as she looks to hit back from two shock defeats.

And she has certainly been putting in the work behind the scenes if her online videos are anything to go by.

VanZant – who SunSport revealed is set to star in her first movie role – wowed her 3.2m followers last month with strength and flexibility in the short clip.

She's seen lifting huge weights while almost parallel to the ground, using all of her core and back strength to complete the reps.

Paige captioned the clip: "BOOTY GAINS!"

She had another treat for her fans shortly after, showing off her toned figure in a zebra-print swimsuit.

VanZant wrote: "Squat: Because no one raps about little butts."

There were plenty of impressed voices in the comments section, with a number of viewers making liberal use of the fire emoji.

One wrote: "You are incredible."

While another added: "Jeez Paige I wouldn’t probably be able to pick up one of those! Would throw out my back."

After leaving the UFC in 2020, Paige has reinvented herself and now has a contract with All Elite Wrestling, as well as the BKFC.

She made her bare-knuckle fighting bow in 2021, appearing twice against Britain Hart and Rachael Ostovich.

VanZant suffered defeats in both of those bouts, but still has two more fights left on her current deal with the organization.

She was left raging after her fight with Sigala was pulled at the last minute.

VanZant wrote on Instagram: "I did not pull from my fight. I was pulled.

"I am p***ed off and heartbroken. I worked my f***ing ass off to be pulled a week before I am supposed to compete.

"This is out of my control. I went an entire camp and weight cut to be pulled a week out."
