Misfits Boxing: Elle Brooke and AJ Bunker Renew Rivalry in Women’s Middleweight Showdown
Misfits Boxing is set to kick off their first event of the year tonight with a highly anticipated rematch between Elle Brooke and AJ Bunker. The bitter rivals will once again face off in the women’s middleweight showdown, 18 months after their initial clash at the Kingpyn ‘Settling Scores’ event in London.
Bunker, who took the fight on short notice as a replacement for the injured Astrid Wett, has been seeking a rematch with Brooke ever since their first encounter. Tonight, at the First Direct Arena in Leeds, she will finally have her chance for redemption.
The event will not only feature established influencers like TikToker Ben Williams and ‘Not Logan Paul’, who gained notoriety after a viral encounter with MMA legend Nate Diaz, but also winners from Love Island and boy band Rak-Su, Ashley Tebi and Myles Stevenson.
As the main event, the rematch between Brooke and Bunker promises to be a grueling showdown for the Misfits women’s middleweight title. Both fighters struggled to find their rhythm in their first bout, resorting to clinches and grappling. Brooke expressed frustration with the referee for frequently breaking up the action.
However, it was Brooke who emerged victorious in their previous encounter, and she aims to maintain her winning streak with another impressive performance. Bunker, on the other hand, seeks to prove that their initial clash was a fluke and secure the title for herself.
Notable names to look out for in tonight’s event include Ginty, Swarmz, BDave, and Pineda. Ed Matthews, the main event mystery opponent, will also step into the ring.
While Misfits Boxing brings together a diverse range of fighters, from social media stars to established professionals, the focus remains on the electrifying rematch between Elle Brooke and AJ Bunker. Only time will tell who will emerge as the champion in this highly anticipated women’s middleweight showdown.
