Laura Sanko reveals photo from “awkward phase”
UFC commentator Laura Sanko has courageously shared a photo from her youth.
“This is for everyone out there whose awkward phase was made much longer and much worse by an annoyingly good looking sibling,” Sanko wrote on Instagram. “Your time will come 🙏🏻 …also, the vibe of this outfit 🙌🏻”

Sanko continues to raise the bar. Originally starting as a fighter, she is also a licensed mixed martial arts judge, and has worked a variety of positions with the UFC to include color commentary.
Sanko first appeared in the UFC as a backstage reporter for UFC on Fox in 2016 before joining the inaugural season of Dana White’s Contender Series in the same role in 2017. Since then, she has worked her way to become an analyst and reporter for UFC on ESPN, as well as one of the main commentators for Dana White’s Contender Series. She also became the first female color commentator to call an official UFC broadcast in the Zuffa era.
