Ebanie Bridges Applauds Daniella Hemsley’s Flashing Stunt at Kingpyn Boxing Event
Australian boxer Ebanie Bridges has stepped forward to defend influencer Daniella Hemsley after her daring flashing stunt following an influencer boxing contest last weekend.
Despite criticism from boxing promoter Eddie Hearn and others, Bridges draws a clear distinction between professional boxing and influencer boxing, emphasizing the latter’s pursuit of viral sensations and internet-breaking moments.
Taking to Twitter, Bridges expressed her support for Hemsley, acknowledging the power of influencer boxing to captivate audiences and generate buzz. She highlighted the strategic nature of Hemsley’s move, noting that it successfully achieved its goal of gaining attention, followers, and internet fame. Bridges eloquently differentiates her own approach as a professional boxer from Hemsley’s attention-grabbing antics, underscoring the impact of influencer boxing in the digital age.
Addressing the controversy head-on, Hemsley issued an apology for the incident, explaining that her intention was not to offend anyone. She attributes the wardrobe malfunction as the cause of the unintended exposure, with tassels stuck to her bra due to sweat.
Bridges tweeted: “I think tonight all y’all that complain about me & say I ‘show my t**s’ saw what ‘showing your t**s’ actually looks like… something I’d never do. There is weighing in in Underwear like everyone else… but having big boobs…. And then there’s actually showing ur t**s on TV. I get why she’s done it… she’s an ‘influencer’ it’s all about views & she knows it would break the internet, get views & everyone would be talking about it. So she has succeeded in that.. It’s influencer boxing and their goal is to break the internet. But now please stop saying I show my t**s LOL cos i f***en dont. And I don’t need to to break the internet. I do that clothed.”
“Ps – she had great boobs tbf (to be fair) hahaha and anyone who is going on about how it’s bad for women’s boxing – firstly it’s influencer boxing & secondly, it’s really not going to affect it, let’s be real. All it’s gonna do is get that influencer more exposure, more followers & more money.”
Despite the polarizing opinions surrounding Hemsley’s flashing spectacle, it remains evident that influencer boxing has found a unique and powerful place in the world of sports entertainment, captivating audiences and sparking debates both within and outside the boxing community.
