The UFC, and most importantly, the general public, will benefit because Octagon ring girl Brittney Palmer will grace the March cover of Playboy magazine.

Specifically, Palmer posed for an 8-page pictorial by Steve Shaw that is expected to hit the newsstands on Friday, February 17.

In the magazine, Palmer discusses her time in art school and how the huge putpouring of support from her fanbase brought her back into the UFC fold.

She also talked about the reasons for posing for Playboy, where she joins fellow ring girl Arianny Celeste and former UFC ring girl Rachelle Leah as cover girls for the ever-popular magazine.

Says Palmer:
[INDENT]“I take figure-drawing classes every day. Ninety-nine percent of the time there’s a nude model in your class – it’s beautiful and it’s art.”

“I really enjoy drawing nudes. I think women’s bodies are fantastic, and I work my ass off for my body. I have such appreciation for being in Playboy – it’s like being a model for an elite figure-drawing class.”

[/INDENT]Currently, she is in Omaha, NE, getting prepped for the Inaugural UFC on Fuel broadcast; however, she can now*add another interesting job to her resume – Playboy cover girl.
