Ex-UFC star Paige VanZant stuns with second win in Dana White’s Power Slap

Fan favorite UFC star Paige VanZant has secured another victory on the Power Slap podium.

’12 Gauge’ appeared opposite Mikael-Michelle Brown on one of the feature contests of Power Slap 12 on March 7. 26-year-old Brown possesses a 1-0 record in Amateur MMA, winning by knockout in Tuff-N-Uff after graduating Wimp 2 Warrior in 2019. She picked up a 1-0 record in Power Slap in December 2024.

The Power Slap 12 card was the promotion’s YouTube Live debut, with a name like VanZant serving to generate some interest in the waning competition.

Paige VanZant demands women’s Power Slap title after second victory

VanZant and Brown went to a decision after exchanging blows for three rounds. ‘PVZ’ would land the cleaner shots, while Brown appeared to rush her moments and miss the chance to land anything meaningful.

In her post-performance interview, VanZant demanded Dana White make the inaugural 125 lbs Power Slap championship.

“Put me on the next card,” VanZant exclaimed. “Let’s get some women’s belts. . . We’re here to stay and knock b—– out and slap people all day.”

2025 has been a good year for the VanZant household thus far, as VanZant’s husband, Austin Vanderford, won his UFC debut at UFC Seattle on February 22.
