Most recently, VanZant made her professional boxing debut against Misfit Boxing women's middleweight champion Elle Brooke at MF & DAZN: X Series 15 on May 25, 2024.
VanZant was knocked down, but the fight ended in a split draw (48-46, 46-48, 47-47).
Brooke and VanZant are expected to rematch later this year, but first, she will be stepping onto the stage at Power Slap 8.
Power Slap 8 will take place on Friday, June 28, at 9:00 p.m. ET. The event will stream live and free on Rumble.
