Paige VanZant is one of the UFC’s top strawweight fighters, but is currently taking a hiatus from fighting to appear on ABC Dancing with the Stars, where she is already impressing the judges:
The UFC strawweight made a great first impression a week ago with partner Mark Ballas, but during preparation for the latest dance routine, he suffered a back injury forced him out of the competition.
That line sounded familiar to VanZant so she didn’t hesitate to move forward with a new dance partner with only two hours to prepare until show time.
The change didn’t seem to matter to VanZant, who performed a salsa dance and got a 24 out of 30 from the judges, which ties for the highest score of the season thus far.
