- Elle Brooke was not intimidated by the taller Paige VanZant in their face-off
- The Misfits middleweight champ will defender her title against the UFC flyweight-turned-OnlyFans star
Elle Brooke claims the much taller Paige VanZant failed to instill fear in her during their intense face-off.
Paige did nothing to Elle
Brooke and VanZant will go toe-to-toe inside the ring at Misfits Boxing 15 on DAZN on May 25. Both female fighters are unsurprisingly confident heading into their boxing showdown but Brooke appears to be feistier than “12 Gauge” despite being way shorter than the OnlyFans star.
Shortly after they faced off, Brooke claimed that VanZant didn’t intimidate her one bit.
“I have never been less intimidated @paigevanzant 😂,” Brooke wrote.
An exciting bout
Brooke vs. VanZant is an exciting match for various reasons. For one, it’s gonna be VanZant’s return to fighting since July 2021 when she lost to Rachel Ostovich at BKFC 19. On the other hand, Brooke will be tested as she tries to defend her Misfits middleweight title for the first time.
Misfits Boxing Co-President Kalle Sauerland is already raving about Brooke vs. VanZant. In fact, Sauerland even declared it as “the biggest female fight” the promotion has pulled off thus far.
“Make no mistake, this is a colossal clash in the world of crossover boxing,” Sauerland said of Brooke vs. VanZant. “Hands down, Elle Brooke taking on the legendary Paige VanZant is the biggest female fight we’ve ever had in this space and the number of people watching in the arena, and worldwide on DAZN, will be huge. Brooke is the No. 2 pound-for-pound female fighter in Misfits Boxing but facing VanZant, a proven and global star from UFC, is by far the biggest challenge of her boxing career.”
Brooke vs. VanZant will take place on May 25 at NRG Arena in Houston, Texas.
