UFC 293 will see Jhenny Andrade, Britney Palmer, Red Dela Cruz and Kristie Pearson.
Dana White, the head of the UFC, criticised the “ridiculous” calls from a legislator to forbid Octagon girls from competing at UFC 243 in Melbourne in 2019.
Similar to boxing, mixed martial arts uses lewd women to walk around the cage before each round during its events.
Due to this, celebrities like the stunning Chrissy Blair, Brittney Palmer, Arianny Celeste, and Jhenny Andrade all rose to prominence among fight fans all over the world.

In 2019, Lord Mayor Sally Capp asked if Is it really necessary for women to go around a combat ring in scantly dressed between rounds.
“Grid girls are no longer a part of Formula One, walk-on girls are no longer a part of professional darts—surely it’s time to move on.”
The UFC president, Dana White, has responded to those remarks by stating that the women are just as much a part of the spectacle as the combatants.
“Our Octagon girls, they’re as much a part of the UFC brand as anyone, they’re ambassadors for our sport,” the 50-year-old said to The Daily Telegraph.
“So it’s ludicrous for someone to start going off who has absolutely no knowledge of who these girls are, what they do, or what they mean to the UFC.
This year UFC 293 will not be seeing Arianny Celeste, could past comments by the Mayor have been the reason for Aranny’s absence from UFC 293?
Australia’s Kristie Pearson will work the same fight event as her trainer husband, Ross, in one of the most unusual collaborations at UFC 293 in Sydney the following Sunday.
The Takedown may make known Pearson, a native of the Central Coast, will be one of four Octagon females working the Israel Adesanya-headlined event, along with Brittney Palmer, Jhenny Andrade, and Red Dela Cruz.
