Elle Brooke is gearing up for a showdown with Paige VanZant in the upcoming Misfits Boxing main event in Houston, but the real fight seems to be happening outside the ring. Brooke has been vocal about her frustration with VanZant’s lack of engagement in promoting their bout, leading to a war of words between the two fighters.
Despite VanZant’s extensive fighting experience, Brooke has taken issue with her opponent’s reluctance to participate in social media promotion and interviews to build hype for their fight. Brooke even went as far as photoshopping a controversial image of VanZant dog-walking her husband, but still received no response from the former UFC and BKFC fighter.
In a face-to-face confrontation on The MMA Hour, Brooke expressed her disappointment in VanZant’s lack of effort in promoting the fight, emphasizing the importance of generating interest in events like Misfits Boxing. VanZant, on the other hand, defended her focus on training and preparation, stating that her priority is winning the fight.
The tension between the two fighters escalated as Brooke questioned VanZant’s decision to step away from UFC and BKFC to face an influencer in the ring. Despite the verbal sparring, VanZant acknowledged Brooke as a worthy opponent, setting the stage for an intense showdown on fight night.
As the anticipation builds for the highly-anticipated match-up, fans can expect fireworks both inside and outside the ring as Brooke and VanZant look to settle their differences in the ultimate showdown. Stay tuned for more updates on this headline-grabbing feud leading up to the big fight.
