RACHAEL OSTOVICH suffered a devastating liver kick defeat on her Octagon return – days after announcing her swimsuit calendar.
The Hawaii-born star was stopped by Gina Mazany in vicious style in the third round of their clash in Las Vegas.

Ostovich, 29, was fighting for the first time since losing to Paige VanZant in January 2019 and her eight-month ban.
She was due to fight Shana Dobson in January but tested positive for a bad substance Ostarine in the build-up.
And last night’s brutal defeat ended a lengthy layoff in what could be her 10th and final bout.
Just two days earlier she posted on Instagram about her new calendar and told her 740k followers she’s ‘so ready’ for 2021.
The MMA fighter said: “Happy Thanksgiving my babies. Sooo much to be thankful for.
“I’ve been working day and night on this. It’s so crazy to see it all brought to life.
“I don’t know about you but I am so ready for 2021. You can be too with the ‘RO 2021 Calendar.
“Check it out & Show your girl some love”.

And 2021 could mean a future away from the octagon following her UFC Vegas defeat last night.
Before the fight, she admitted: “This could be my last fight – I’m looking at it in those terms. I’m feeling really good.
“No gyms are open in Hawaii and even without Covid, living on an island made things harder.
“I don’t even know how that whole (doping) situation even happened.
“The thing with USADA’s technology is that it’s so good that it can allow them to trace things to years and years back, things you consumed unknowingly.”

On the same card in Las Vegas, a referee intervened to spare another female fighter from an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction.
UFC official Jason Herzog spotted that Norma Dumont was on the brink of nasty wardrobe malfunction live on TV in her fight with Ashlee Evans-Smith.
Herzog called a brief pause to the action and reached in to reposition the fighter’s top to save her from flashing her boobs to fans watching live in the USA on ESPN.
