“And the new IBF Bantamweight champion of the world, Miyo Yoshida.” Perhaps the sweetest words Miyo Yoshida heard after accepting to fight Ebanie Bridges with just twenty days’ notice. The 16-4-0 boxer from Japan shocked the world by defeating Ebanie Bridges via unanimous decision. Interestingly, what made the night even more special for Yoshida was the fact that her mother was in the audience, cheering for the 35-year-old pugilist.
As the fight began, Bridges was the crowd favorite, but soon, it was pretty clear who was dominating. Despite agreeing to fight Bridges with just 20 days’ notice, Miyo ‘Musashi’ proved experience beats hype. So, when DAZN Boxing announced on X (formerly Twitter) the winner of the fight, fans went wild. “Champ on 20 days notice Miyo Yoshida @MiyoBluedog gets the unanimous decision win,” wrote DAZN. When fans found the tweet, chaos erupted in the comment section.

Despite suffering a dominating loss at the hands of Miyo Yoshida, Bridges was confident about winning. Before the fight, in an ironic tweet, Bridges claimed she would smash her opponent.

Going into the fight, Bridges was heavily favored to win, with Conor McGregor in the audience cheering for her. However, things did not play out as she wanted. What makes the loss even worse is the fact that she was boasting on X about smashing Yoshida in the fight. Before the fight, Bridges turned to X, giving a shout-out to McGregor’s brand Irish Stout.

Just like Bridges shocked the boxing world back in 2022 by defeating Shannon O’Connell, Yoshida shocked the world by dominating the Australian boxer. However, the bigger question is – what did you think of Bridges’ performance? Do you think her business endeavors distracted her? Do you think she was too focused on her OnlyFans?
