<p>Women MMA fighters often seek out gyms with a core of dedicated female pros. However, rising star Paige VanZant trains at Team Alpha Male where she is the sole female, and in a recent appearance on UFC Tonight, she said she likes it that way.</p>
“There’s a family and a team aspect,” said PVZ, as transcribed by Dana Becker for Fiveouncesofpain.com. “There’s also a pro athlete gym, They’re making sure I’m ready for my fight. Training with men is better. There’s less drama, and if I can stand three or five rounds with the guys, I can handle a fight with a girl. They definitely hit harder than any girl I’ve fought.”
“I go in there and do my job. I like to win more than anything in the world. Once the competition starts and the bell rings, I have to be the best.”
Paige VanZant beat Alex Chambers by Submission (Armbar, Round 3, 1:01).
