UFC flyweight Paige VanZant announced on social media late Thursday night that she fractured her right arm. She did not elaborate on how it happened or how long she will be out.
She previously broke her right arm in the first round of a fight last year with Jessica-Rose Clark.
Well…. I fractured my arm again. So there’s that.

VanZant continued to compete despite the injury and lost by unanimous decision. It took her a full year to return to the Octagon. She defeated Rachael Ostovich by second-round armbar submission in January in Brooklyn.
VanZant, one of the most popular fighters in the UFC who also competed on “Dancing With The Stars,” is 8-4 overall as a professional.
