VIDEO. Boxing’s sex symbol unexpectedly loses title to Japanese rival
Australian IBF world bantamweight champion Ebany Bridges (9-2, 4 KOs) lost the title to the Japanese in sensational fashion Miyo Yoshida (17-4, 0 knockouts) At the boxing night in San Francisco, USA.
Yoshida won the first half of the fight cleanly and did not allow his opponent to catch up in the second. In the seventh round, Bridges tried to land hard blows but lost in this section as well.
Judges’ decision: 99-91, 99-91 and 97-93 in favor of the applicant.
Remember that Ebany Bridges is considered the sex symbol of boxing. His main trick is to step on the scales in his underwear, as he did before this fight.
