Paige VanZant's Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue Pictures Released

The photos have now been released for Ultimate Fighting Championship flyweight Paige VanZant's appearance in the newest Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

"I was unbelievably shocked that SI Swimsuit called and asked if I would be a part of their magazine," VanZant said to SI. "I have constantly been having to prove to the world and UFC fans that you can be beautiful and a badass at the same time. Well, now it's my moment to shine."

For VanZant, being a part of the shoot was a dream come true for her.
