UFC star Amanda Ribas quit OnlyFans after deciding he wasn't willing to post explicit photos.
No.15-ranked flyweight contender Ribas began using the subscription service for a brief time, but ended up deciding against it after feeling "embarrassed" at the thought of posting personal pictures. Some of her fellow fighters such as Paige VanZant and Hannah Goldy make more money from OnlyFans or similar sites than they do fighting, but post racy videos and pictures.
However, the Brazilian wasn't keen to go down that route, and as such never made millions or anything close on the platform. The flyweight fighter, who has 2.1million followers on Instagram despite posting more in Portuguese than English, has instead opted to use more traditional social media to get in touch with fans.
"For me, it's not my vibe to do some sexy photos," Ribas told Sportskeeda MMA. "That's for me, I don't judge, but for me I'd be embarrassed, that's my personality." In an earlier interview with Sherdog, she explained what happened further, adding: "For me was a little hard because for me I didn’t put what the the fans was expecting. So for me was not too good. But okay, those who like to do it, I don’t have nothing [to say], but for me was a little hard. So I don’t like it.
“It’s crazy for me because I don’t do a lot of posts in English or everything [on Instagram]. And I think this is the difference because sometimes I just do like, Oh, my dogs are here and they are screaming so I do the video so is the things that people enjoy, and this is good because I don’t need to force something. I just do what I do.”

Ribas will take on Tracy Cortez at tomorrow's Fight Night in Orlando with fans branding the bout as one between the two most attractive fighters in the promotion, similarly to when VanZant fought Michelle Waterson or Rachael Ostovich.
"I don't like this because if I say it I'd be a little embarrassed," Ribas said of the fight. "But Tracy is really beautiful, she looks like she would be a good girl too. I've never talked to her, so I will be happy, but embarrassed too!"
