Ebanie Bridges feared iconic boobs were going to spill out during boxing event

Ebanie Bridges feared a catastrophic wardrobe malfunction as she watched two fellow pros in the ring.

Bridges, otherwise known as the Blonde Bomber, returns to action on Saturday when she takes on Miyo Yoshida. The 37-year-old will put her IBF bantamweight title on the line in San Francisco against Yoshida, who stepped in as a late replacement for Avril Mathie.

Mathie was originally scheduled to fight Bridges but had to pull out due to injury, leaving the so-called Battle of the Boobs in tatters. Thankfully, Bridges' army of fans will still get to see her in action as she returns to the ring after 12 months out, in part due to injury.

The Aussie puncher is one of boxing's great entertainers, both in and out of the ring. Bridges made fans giggle at the start of last year with a very cheeky quip about her own outfit as she watched Chris Eubank Jr fight Liam Williams.

The Blonde Bomber put on a shadow boxing exhibition for the cameras, throwing several punches to the delight of viewers at home. On Twitter, now known as X, one user suggested Bridges looked somewhat embarrassed at her antics.

However, that couldn't have been further from the truth, as Bridges later explained in a tweet. She wrote: "Btw I was worried if my boobs were gonna fall out cos I wasn’t really in the appropriate top to be throwing combos lmao. Luckily the jacket was covering them."

That sparked plenty of hilarious responses from the star's plethora of followers, including one who cheekily joked: "No top is safe!"

The 35-year-old fighter will be the centre of attention this weekend when she takes on Yoshida in her hotly-anticipated comeback fight. Now the the weigh-ins are out of the way, it's all about what happens in the ring for Bridges as she bids to defend her title.
