In many ways, the UFC took a few pages out of boxing’s book when it came into existence nearly 26 years ago. Among them were the 10-point must system, the three judges scoring the fight, and ring girls.
But unlike boxing, the UFC’s Octagon girls hold the same popularity as many marquee fighters. The likes of Arianny Celeste, Brittney Palmer, and Rachelle Leah back in her day, have made a name holding up round cards, which eventually gave themselves other opportunities outside of the UFC.
For Lord Mayor of Melbourne Sally Capp, however, such a practice is outdated and should no longer exist in this day and age.
