#Paige VanZant made more money on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ than UFC

Paige VanZant’s “Dancing with the Stars” experience has come and gone, but the 26-year-old fighter has not forgotten her paycheck four years later.

Speaking recently to Ariel Helwani of ESPN, VanZant said she’s looking forward to testing the free agency waters, and she believes she deserves a loftier pay increase after performing on ABC’s ballroom dancing competition.

“I made more money on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ than I have in my entire UFC career combined. Every fight, every win, every bonus,” VanZant said.

VanZant’s current rate is said to be $46,000 per fight with a $46,000 win bonus. She finished second on “Dancing with the Stars” in 2016.

Set to battle Amanda Ribas on July 11 in Abu Dhabi, VanZant also told ESPN outlet she wants to “prove how good” she is.

“I know how hard I’ve worked. So, no, the pressure isn’t higher, and I do truly feel my value doesn’t change, whether I win or lose. I still have set myself up for success, and I will still forever be Paige VanZant, but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to go out there and fight to die,” VanZant said.

“This fight matters more to me than any fight in my entire life. I’m willing to put it all out there,” she continued.

In addition to adding a “W” to her column, VanZant — whose personal record is 8-4 — is also after a “brand-new contract.”

“I just feel like a regular extension isn’t what I want, and I want to prove my worth and my value — and I want a brand-new contract,” she explained. “And I’m really excited to get that opportunity and really test the free agency because how do you know what your value is unless you can go test it amongst all the other sharks?”

VanZant has been in training mode prepping for the fight, forgoing her naked photoshoots on Instagram with husband Austin Vanderford.
