UFC veteran and BKFC fighter Paige VanZant believes she may have been infected with the COVID-19 virus shortly after her husband, Bellator fighter Austin Vanderford, was scratched from an upcoming fight due to a positive test.
VanZant, who’s expected to make her BKFC debut in November, on Monday took to Instagram to ask for fans’ help – in particular, fans with medical experience – to explain severe symptoms that followed a negative test result for COVID.
“You gave me corona,” VanZant said in a short video clip after describing her swollen left eye and a bad cough.
