Rachael Ostovich finally gave in to the lure of OnlyF*ns despite shunning downs the talks 3 years back. The American fighter joins the likes of Paige VanZant, Jessica Penne, and Kay Hansen as she made the switch to the subscription-based website.
The 32-year-old is famed for her rivalry with VanZant but unfortunately got cut from the UFC roster in 2020. She tried to uplift her dwindling MMA career, as she could only muster one win in her four fights under the UFC banner. While a transition to BKFC soon followed and she avenged her defeat in UFC to VanZant in BKFC, the fighter ultimately “switched sides”.

The flyweight fighter announced her decision to fans on her Instagram handle. She captioned, “Just switched sides…..link in bio. @onlyfans”
Further, she is heard saying in the video, “Hey guys, it’s your girl, Rachael Ostovich. And yes, I did it. I made a OnlyF*ns. So, if you want to see exclusive content or something behind the scenes, subscribe to Rachael Ostovich on OnlyF*ns. Aloha.”
Notably, the former UFC fighter earlier dismissed the idea of her signing up for OnlyF*ns in a tweet just after the UFC dropped her from the roaster. The 4-6 record holder wrote in her dismissive tweet, “If you on your OnlyF*ns game making that money, get it girl, but all you weirdos saying ‘OnlyF*ns’ next for me… like that’s my only option can kiss my a**.

This left her in an odd spot, as she later would reveal how fighting in MMA left her broke. She told MMA Junkie, “It’s [pay in BKFC] a lot, and I felt like I was almost going broke fighting in MMA.”

However, she penned a deal with BKFC in 2021, and just after one bare-knuckle fight, she jumped the ships to OnlyF*ns. Ostovich is the latest fighter to sign up with the lucrative platform, as it offers a better alternative than the meager pay she received as a fighter.
The fighters’ pay issues have been raised multiple times in the recent past and it has also been supported by fighters such as Jake Paul.
