Paige VanZant shares behind-the-scenes footage of Power Slap preparations as husband smacks her with foam tube
PAIGE VANZANT called on husband Austin Vanderford to help her Power Slap preparations – by getting smacked with a foam tube.
VanZant was a shock name to make a debut in the controversial new sport headed up by UFC boss Dana White.
The American went on to beat Christine Wolmarans by dropping her twice during the contest.
And it appears that it will not be a one-off as VanZant teased more Power Slap matches.
The ex-UFC star posted a video on Instagram where partner Vanderford swings a foam swimming tube her way.
She captioned the post: “@powerslap prep.”
VanZant stunned fans in 2020 when she signed for Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship after leaving the UFC.
She had two brutal bare-knuckle bouts – losing them both – before taking three years out.
But VanZant, 30, returned in May to make her boxing debut with Misfits, home to celebrity-style crossover bouts.
She was dropped by OnlyFans star Elle Brooke before clawing back a draw.

It set up a rematch teased but VanZant then made the shock move to Power Slap.
She said after the match: “It was weird to stand there with your hands behind your back and I just stood there praying, let me eat this.
“Once I took the first one, I had all the confidence in the world.
“I was nervous going into it, but it’s more like just nerves that I don’t want to get knocked out.
Because you just don’t know what to expect. That’s the only real bad-case scenario that can happen.
“After I took the first one, I pretty much knew I was going to win.”
