Rachael Ostovich vs. Paige VanZant earns BKFC 19 ‘Fight of the Night’

Rachael Ostovich not only earned her first promotional win at BKFC 19, but her first performance accolade as well.

Ostovich earned a unanimous decision victory over Paige VanZant in the main event of Friday night’s bare-knuckle showcase in Tampa, Fla. On Monday, BKFC announced that the flyweight matchup earned the award for the event’s “Fight of the Night.”

The Hawaiian fighter was able to exact revenge on VanZant after “12 Gauge” picked up a second-round submission win of Ostovich in the octagon at UFC on ESPN+ 1 in January 2019.
