The UFC May Have Fired Octagon Girl Chandella Powell Because She Allegedly Has a Softcore Porn Past

All, UFC Stephen Douglas February 17th. 2012, 3:20pm

Chandella Powell was curiously absent from Wednesday’s UFC on Fuel TV event in Omaha, Nebraska. For an Octagon Girl to miss a fight card is not all that strange, but rumors have started swirling this week that Powell has been released by the organization. The reason for her firing? Before Powell was with the UFC she allegedly did some softcorn pornography under the name “Mariah Ashton.”

Powell joined the UFC around the end of 2009. Before that she worked at the Playboy Club in Las Vegas and also appeared in the magazine. How much less artful is softcore porn than appearing in Playboy? All three other Octagon Girls listed on the UFC website – Rachel Leah, Arianny Celeste and Brittney Palmer – have appeared in Playboy.

Powell’s bio page on UFC.com remains, but it also said that she’s 2-years-old. (That typo has remained on UFC.com for months if not more than a year.) Dana White made it clear that the UFC is not in the website business during his spat with Anonymous, so getting any trace of Powell off the official website is probably way down on the list of priorities. Around the time these rumors popped up, Powell’s Twitter went silent.

The other interesting part about this rumor is that Powell may not have been fired for being involved with pornography, but for not disclosing it to the UFC. Yes, if you’re interested, links to the photographs in question can be found in the comments section of one of the outgoing links in this post. I’m not going to tell you which one though. This is the Internet. If you can’t find a naked girl here, then there is really no hope for you.

I would have thought that being in softcore porn was a prerequisite to be an octagon girl in the first place.

Softcore porn: bad. This photo shoot: okay.
They should have fired her with a press release saying softcore porn is for pussies and here at UFC, we ain’t no pussies. Visible penetration or GTFO.

There is only one as far as I am concerned, starring — as the pantsless man mentioned, the one and only Krista Allen.

As ms implied, I highly doubt that Ms. Powell was opting for a career as an Octagon Girl because she was turning down roles in the next Nolan or Scorcese blockbuster. More than likely, it’s Octagon Girl or softcore and she got it backwards.

Whenever I think about these shows, I think about the people in the movies. These people probably moved to hollywood at 19, withh dreams of becoming the next Julia Roberts or Tom Cruise. They probably waited tables or worked construction or something waiting for that big break — then it came. It came in Broadcast Bombshells. Not quite adult fare, but not quite Forrest Gump either. What do these people say at there family reunions — “Oh, you saw me in Busty Cops 2 — I was the lead male role”

The acting sucked in Busty Cops 2.

I have a friend who was stationed in a remote place for awhile with no access to women or porn. His “rock bottom,” he said, was jerking off to an Andie MacDowell picture in an issue of Good Housekeeping.
