UFC 329’s co-main event in Las Vegas featured one of the top WNBA stars, Sophie Cunningham.

On most nights, Sophie Cunningham is seen playing basketball alongside Caitlin Clark on the Indiana Fever in the WNBA.

However, the 29-year-old basketball star recently made her debut at the UFC, but not as a fighter by any means.

Sophie Cunningham serves as a ring girl during Paddy Pimblett’s UFC 329 fight​

UFC 329 featured a co-main event with Paddy Pimblett taking on Benoit Saint Denis at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

While the fight ended quickly as Pimblett forced Saint Denis into submission in the first-round itself, Cunningham’s special role as a ring girl caught the eyes of many WNBA fans.


Now, that was an unexpected crossover as it was the Fever star’s octagon debut, albeit as a ring girl during the co-main event.

In recent weeks, Cunningham has become a fan-favorite. She previously went viral for her finger-pointing meme during a Fever game and now as a ring girl at UFC 329. One may wonder, what’s next for her?
