But the American has had three years out the ring and in that time amassed a huge following on raunchy content site OnlyFans.
VanZant, 30, has spent the last three years focussing only on boxing training, all while raking it in through her subscribers.
But no matter how much money she earns outside the ring or cage - it will never be enough to walk away from combat.
VanZant told SunSport: "I don't look at my bank account. I have a financial advisor, so I honestly have no idea how much money I have!

"I know that I like to work out, I like to work hard, I like to win fights to be successful and I like to take care of those around me.
"As long as I'm continuing to do what I love, for me it's just background noise.
"And of course, it's a benefit to me I get to call what I love a career and it can support me financially.

She said: "I think it's pretty well known out there that I absolutely don't need to fight anymore but I can't see myself waking up and not doing this.
"I can't see myself waking up and not going to the gym and not training.
"It's in my blood, it's what I absolutely love to do and I guess the moment I stop loving this then I won't fight anymore.
"But it's crazy getting this boxing match, I feel like it's opened like a whole new wave of passion in me.
"Just dedicating so long with my team in the gym preparing for a boxing match I just feel like this has opened the door to the next chapter of my career.

"I know for a fact this is the first of many."
Brooke, 26, is 4-1 in the ring and has a Misfits belt to her name.
But more than that, just like VanZant, she is a huge earner outside the ring and known to make over £60,000-per-MONTH on OnlyFans.
So VanZant said: "I respect anyone who fights.
"This is not easy going in and fighting another person that's training across the world to try and kill you.

"It's not an easy path. Everyone thinks that they can fight, that they can go and get into a street fight or a boxing match.
"But until you put the gloves on, you really feel it and it changes everything. So, I respect everyone who fights."
