Former UFC fighter Paige VanZant has leaked a request she received on OnlyFans, where she has made an astronomical amount of money.
VanZant fought nine times across the women's strawweight and flyweight divisions in UFC, finishing with a 5-4 record and leaving after a submission loss to Amanda Ribas at UFC 251.
Since then, VanZant, who is married to UFC middleweight Austin Vanderford and has even been in his corner, has continued her combat sports exploits in Bare Knuckle Fighting, Power Slap Fighting and Misfits Boxing.
But it is on OnlyFans where the 32-year-old has made the majority of her earnings. VanZant has 3 million followers on Instagram and a whopping 2.31 million likes on her VIP page on the website, where she posts a series of NSFW content.

Subscriptions for VanZant's site cost $29.99 but she also takes custom requests from her followers and even once sold a kiss card for $13,000.
And on TikTok, the former Dancing With The Stars contestant shared a video of a request from a fan who paid $25. VanZant spliced a selfie-shot video and screenshots of the messages.
The user asked, “I was wondering… do you do customs?” - to which she responded, “Well, yes ofc, what did you have in mind?”

The fan then shared his proposal, asking, "Can you make me a video stepping on your phone and calling me a bad boy?”
There was no video of the request being met, but the video was titled, "He really just paid $25 for this" and racked up 3.8 million views and 117,000 likes.
Paige VanZant's OnlyFans earnings dwarf her fight purse pay
VanZant first set up an independent subscription site in 2021 and then made the switch to OnlyFans, the biggest subscription site for adult content, before her first bout on BKFC.
She had more than 50,000 subscribers in hours and immediately realised that her life was about to change and her bank account was also set to increase.
Speaking to MMA Fighting, she said: "I was showing my husband, and I was like, ‘Oh my word!’ That moment driving back [to the hotel], I was of course extremely excited to fight, but I was like, ‘Our lives just changed forever’. I was like, ‘This is OK, this is going to work out. All the risks are worth it. If I never work with another sponsor again, we’re going to be fine’.”
VanZant has also claimed she made more in a day than she did from purses in her fighting career.
Speaking on OnlyStans in 2023, she admitted: "OnlyFans has definitely been my largest source of income, I would say combined, in my fighting career. I think I've made more money in 24 hours on OnlyFans than I did in my entire fighting career combined."
OnlyFans took over to the point that she considered fighting just a “hobby” as she told TMZ "OnlyFans is what's providing everything for me".
