Maryna Moroz has expressed her joy after posing nude for Playboy, saying that she "feels more energy" after joining their 'centrefold' platform.
The former UFC strawweight contender, who has reinvented herself at flyweight with three impressive wins, made history when she became the first UFC fighter to appear on Playboy Centerfold, a new content platform the media company has launched. She is on the verge of landing a position in the UFC's rankings at 125lb, facing No.8 Jennifer Maia on November 19.
And she has blown up in popularity after the deal was announced this week, making her the first UFC fighter to sign a long-term deal with the famed publisher. Ring card girls Arianny Celeste and Brittney Palmer have both featured in the magazine, but they made one-off appearances, and weren't fighters in the promotion, reports The Mirror.
