After Paige VanZant and Pearl Gonzalez, the UFC women’s flyweight fighter Rachael Ostovich also joined hands with Bare Knuckle FC. Ostovich didn’t have a good run inside UFC and she only won her debut fight in the promotion.

She lost three consecutive fights after that and with her latest loss against Gina Mazany in November 2020, UFC released her. This morning the news came in that BKFC signed her and the promotion is targeting her debut in July.

The BKFC President Dave Feldman says, “We always are looking to sign fighters that can move the needle and fight, and that is exactly what Rachael brings to the table, I am looking forward to her debut in July.” {H/T MMA Junkie}

“I know she is training hard and working on her boxing every day and we expect very big things from Rachael.”

Rachael Ostovich is also excited to join a new course of her career with BKFC, Ostovich says, “I am so excited to fight in the fastest growing sport in the world, I’m looking forward to my debut in July. I have seen and heard great things about BKFC, and am very happy to be a part of the team. Can’t wait to announce the opponent.” {H/T MMA Junkie}

The rumors are very high that Rachael Ostovich may be facing former UFC fighter Paige Vanzant on her debut. Vanzant already made her BKFC debut this year which she lost and now she is finding another opponent.

Both of them already faced each other in UFC on UFC Fight Night: Dillashaw vs Cejudo, where Vanzant won the fight by armbar submission. Although, nothing is finalized yet but the rumors are high that Paige Vanzant can be Rachael Ostovich’s first opponent.
