Paige VanZant fell short in her second appearance for Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC), this time losing a unanimous decision to promotional newcomer and former UFC opponent, Rachael Ostovich.
The duo fought a few years ago at UFC Brooklyn, where VanZant submitted Ostovich with an armbar in the second round of their fight. They both insisted that the fight at BKFC was not necessarily a rematch, considering the change in sport and expected a totally different showing. And it was indeed a different showing.
VanZant entered the fight off of a loss to Britain Hart at BKFC: Knucklemania earlier this year, but felt as though she now had enough experience to get the better of Ostovich.
