Laura Sanko, who is making waves since her debut as a commentator, had an ingenious and clever method to cheat the Instagram algorithm.

The 40-year-old is witnessing a boom in her fame ever since she became the first female commentator in modern UFC at Fight Night 218. Further, her UFC 285 comments about the UFC fighter Shavkat Rakhmonov triggered another array of rumors that only boosted her followers. Following this, the former MMA fighter recently launched another bid to gain followers as she planned to distort the Instagram algorithm.

Therefore, the fan-favorite UFC commentator posted a beach selfie that landed a mass following in her comments section.

While some fans alluded to her recent rumors associated with Rakhmonov, others admitted the trap worked wonders on them. One of them was UFC fighter Jamie Pickett, who wrote, “Father God”.

“Shavkot likes this”

“I know Shavkat double liked This post”

“I heard the Algorithms pick you up way more if you do these like weekly or something 🥵”

“You don’t need to be a thirst trap. You can stand alone on your skill set! You are amazing at your job, not just a pretty face and body.”

“Petition to increase to bi-weekly thirst traps 📃📃”

“Its even sexier when you know she can beat the crap out of you.”

“Caught in that damn thirst trap again.. dammit”

Previously, the MMA analyst at UFC 285 had praised Rakhmonov and his UFC record. In addition, she revealed the Kazakh national gave her chills. These remarks misled the fans to believe that she had a crush on Rakhmonov.
