Video: Paige VanZant And Britain Hart Brawl Ahead Of BKFC Fight

Former UFC strawweight contender Paige VanZant makes her highly-anticipated Bare Knuckle FC debut on February 5 when she faces Britain Hart at "KnuckleMania".

Both women successfully hit the scales ahead of their bout but neither one could wait until their main event, tomorrow night to get their hands on one another. Hart closed in a bit too closely on VanZant during their face-off, which caused VanZant to grab her by their throat before having to be separated and exchanged several expletives.

VanZant took to Instagram to joke about forgetting what sport she was competing in. The former 'Dancing With The Stars' contestant has been in defiant form ahead of her BKFC debut. She has teased that once she finished competing for the promotion she could be tempted to join the pro-wrestling world with WWE. For now, she has a new challenge in BKFC ahead of her and will be looking to prove the doubters wrong.
