It's the first week of July folks, and I don't know what side of the hemisphere you're currently living on, but here on the East Coast in the good old U.S. of A., it's freakin' hot.

Thanks to Canada's "Inside Fitness" magazine, it's about to get even hotter.

That's because Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Octagon Girls Arianny Celeste and Brittney Palmer, alongside "Best of PRIDE" host Kenda Perez (aka the "Ultimate Knockouts"), are heating up the pages of its upcoming issue for Aug./Sept. 2012.

Our photographic friends at Hardbody.com were kind enough to bring this to our attention.

Take a good look at these lovely ladies and if you need to see what the other side looks like, click here. After all, it's summertime and the temperature is rising, so why not make the best of it and shed some skin?

Even former Strikeforce women's champion Cris "Cyborg" is getting in on the action.

You dig?
