Former Best Buy worker Summer Tapasa-Sataraka's textbook blocking form—which was on full display when she stopped a would-be shoplifter from stealing a portable speaker—has led to her landing a job with the UFC.

ESPN's Marc Raimondi broke the news.

"On Friday, [UFC President Dana White] officially offered Tapasa a job with the UFC," he wrote.

Raimondi added:

"UFC vice president of communications Lenee Breckenridge said White initially thought Tapasa could work in a security capacity, but after being moved by talking with her, he felt that she could be valuable in an even greater role.
