The Slap game is taking off.
Former UFC fighter Paige VanZant made a splash in the world of Power Slap on Friday night, marking her debut with a decisive victory over Christine Wolmarans.
The bout ended in VanZant’s favor with a unanimous decision from the judges, a result underscored by her repeated knockdowns of Wolmarans throughout the match.
From the outset, it was clear that VanZant had found her rhythm in Power Slap, delivering blows with precision and force that left her opponent visibly struggling. At one point, Wolmarans appeared on the brink of exhaustion under the relentless onslaught of VanZant’s strikes, while VanZant herself appeared unfazed and in control throughout the bout.
A standout moment came when VanZant not only weathered Wolmarans’ attempts to gain the upper hand but also laughed off her opponent’s efforts, showcasing both her dominance and confidence in the ring.
Such resilience and composure likely served to unsettle Wolmarans further, highlighting VanZant’s psychological edge in the match.

Reflecting on her decision to join Power Slap at this stage in her career, VanZant expressed her trademark boldness: “Because I’m a woman that does whatever the [expletive] I want, and right now, I want to do Power Slap.” Despite her evident success in the new sport, VanZant also expressed a desire to return to boxing before the year concludes, aiming to bounce back from a recent split draw in her debut with Misfits Boxing against Elle Brooke.
The question now looms: Should VanZant focus on Power Slap, given her immediate success, or pivot back to boxing in pursuit of further challenges and achievements?
While her victory in Power Slap suggests a natural aptitude for the sport, VanZant’s competitive spirit and aspirations in boxing may prompt her to explore both avenues simultaneously.
As VanZant navigates her post-UFC career, fans and pundits alike will be eager to see how she balances these ambitions and where her dynamic talents lead her next in the combat sports arena.
