Some of the most popular fighters in women’s MMA have created their own version of the #Don’tRush Challenge.
The “Don’t Rush” Challenge is a viral internet trend on TikTok, where each person involved displays their transformation from home to going out attire, in various videos that are later combined into one.
The women of MMA version includes the likes of UFC fighters Michelle Waterson, Paige VanZant, Tatiana Suarez, and Rachael Ostovich; Bellator champions Ilima-Lei Macfarlane and Cris Cyborg, along with promotional up-and-comer Valerie Loureda; ONE Championship’s Angela Lee; and more. In the video, the women show off some MMA skills before transforming into their glammed-up looks.
Bellator fighter Bec Rawlings, who’s been open about her past as a domestic violence victim, is also featured. Her part lines up with the lyrics “I hate domestic abusers/In fact they all make me sick” from the song used in the video.
Coincidence or well played?
