SiriusXM and Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) have teamed up to launch a new limited-run weekly show hosted by Bare Knuckle FC’s newest star, Paige VanZant, exclusively on SiriusXM Fight Nation (Ch. 156). A former standout UFC fighter, VanZant signed a multi-fight promotional contract with BKFC last August and will be making her bare-knuckle debut next month.
On Wednesday, January 20th at 5 pm ET, VanZant, alongside veteran combat sports broadcaster Brian Soscia, made her debut as the host of a new four-episode SiriusXM show, Knuckle Up Radio with Paige VanZant, that featured Chael Sonnen and chronicled her journey from the MMA octagon to the BKFC Squared Circle. New one-hour episodes will air every Wednesday at 5 pm ET through February 10th. You’ll also be able to listen to episodes on the app.
Prior to joining Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, VanZant fought for the Ultimate Fighting Championship for six years, becoming one of the biggest stars competing in the strawweight and flyweight divisions. With a huge social media following (@PaigeVanZant), she has become a crossover star whose popularity extends beyond the world of combat sports. Outside the ring, she is an author, model, and also competed on Season 22 of Dancing with the Stars, where she finished in second place.
