Fighter Paige VanZant Says She Has A Sex Tape Made, Isn't Sure She'd Sell It

Former UFC and current bare-knuckle fighting superstar Paige VanZant seems ready to take her content game to the next level by hinting at a sex tape during an Instagram Q&A this week with her fans.

When asked by one of her fans if she would consider making a sex tape with her husband, fellow fighter Austin Vanderford (11-0), VanZant made it clear there's already footage.

“Would I? We definitely already have,” VanZant told her followers. “Would I ever share it, sell it, promote it? Hmm, that’s a different story.”

With a content empire that includes a personal site where fans can get exclusive content for $9.99 a month, over three million followers on Instagram and a four-fight deal with Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (she's 0-2) that pays her $1 million, VanZant doesn't seem desperate enough financially to dump a sex tape out on the market.

But...it's reportedly made and seemingly ready for offers from content factories that are interested in determining a profit margin for such a video.

For the 27-year-old, the fight money she made in 2021 was insane compared to what she was making from Dana White.

“I was in the UFC for six years getting paid $40,000 (to show) and $40,000 (to win), and now I’m getting ten times that doing what I love,” she said before a February bare-knuckle fight.

The money has been great, but how many more bare-knuckle punches will VanZant take before she decides to end the fighting career and turn her attention full-time to social media content?

She's smart to hold onto that sex tape just a little bit longer and even smarter to make it clear there could be a dollar amount that would help it see the light of day.
