ELLE BROOKE has announced her next fight against Paige VanZant – and promised to “RETIRE” the former UFC star on May 25th.
The fight was confirmed on social media after being accidentally leaked by DAZN a few days earlier.
Brooke posted on X: “When they call, I accept. UFC star about to retire.”
The OnlyFans star is now 4-1 in the ring and most recently defeated former Love Islander AJ Bunker in Leeds.
Meanwhile, VanZant hasn’t fought since 2021, when she lost a boxing rematch against MMA rival Rachael Ostovich.
VanZant left the UFC at 8-5 in the cage for the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship.
But she lost both BKFC fights and has not returned to the ring since – despite triggering a boxing switch in February.
VanZant, 30, said MMAFighting: “I accepted a boxing fight, this will be my next fight. It’s very, very exciting.”
The American revealed that her boxing debut was scheduled for March, but had to be postponed until the summer.
And Brooke, 26, has long named VanZant among her list of dream opponents.
