Paige VanZant LAS VEGAS – Grooming prospects can be a difficult task for UFC matchmakers. Put them against similarly experienced competition, or toss them in the deep end? Paige VanZant is confident she’ll be brought along the right way. Despite just two UFC appearances, 21-year-old VanZant has already become a familiar name to many MMA fans. Her “Fight of the Night” victory over Kailin Curran at UFC Fight Night 57, followed by a beatdown of vet Felice Herrig at UFC on FOX 15 in April, put VanZant on the map. She’s also one of a handful of fighters with her own Reebok endorsement .
