Ebanie Bridges hit Elle Brooke in brutal sparring session that forced re-think (2024)

Ebanie Bridges and Elle Brooke have shared gruelling rounds of sparring but could meet in a real fight.

Brooke has launched her career in the boxing ring, having fought six times under the stewardship of professional trainer Mark Tibbs, and former world champion Bridges.

During her rise on KSI's influencer promotion Misfits Boxing, Brooke has been mentored by the Australian, who has even shared competitive sparring rounds with her in the gym.

And the 26-year-old has suggested she considered her future in the ring, after receiving a boxing lesson from the champion.

She told talkSPORT.com: "There is a story from my first few spars before my first AJ Bunker fight or just after. It was just after she had freshly won her title.

"I was sparring her and she was just beating the living daylights out of me. And I was a bit [screaming] this is so hard.

"And she was like 'you want to be a boxer, huh?' I was thinking no I f***ing don't, I hate this s***.

"I'm still here 18 months later. She's taught me a lot of life lessons and handed me a few beatings as well.

"She has a great left hook and she has taught me from day one about what I can achieve as well."

Brooke previously showed off a bruised face from her session with Bridges, with the Australian clearly not holding back on her friend.

Naturally, despite sharing no natural rivalry, the pair have always been linked with a high-profile showdown despite Bridges having had 11 professional fights and been a bantamweight champion.

The OnlyFans star previously refused to fight her sister Emily in a Kingpyn Boxing tournament, given they were matched up in the 'losing' bracket of the format.

But she has suggested that she would be open to facing Bridges, aka the 'Blonde Bomber' despite learning her tricks and traits from the Australian.

"Do you know what one day at the end of the careers, I'd love to fight Ebanie," she continued.

"I think it would be such a good build-up and such a good story, there is certainly a chance we can make that one work.

"It's hard to make a lot of call-outs as there aren't many females in the space.

"One day I'd like to fight Tammy Hembrow. She's an influencer and she's fit and in good shape."

A showdown between the pair would be an easy sell, given the interest in the fighters on social media.

Bridges would of course be heavy favourite, but KSI's promotion would certainly have one eye on building the clash.

Brooke will next face Paige VanZant on Misfits X Series 15 in Texas on Saturday 25 May live on DAZN in the biggest fight of her career.

VanZant has experience in both the UFC and bare-knuckle boxing, so will pose the toughest examination of her squared circle credentials.
