Elle Brooke believes her MFB title fight with Paige VanZant will go the full five rounds.
Brooke and VanZant headline Saturday’s MF & DAZN: X Series 15 event in Houston, USA.
The English influencer and OnlyFans model won the MFB Middleweight title earlier in the year with victory over AJ Bunker.
However, VanZant is expected to provide a tougher obstacle as the ex UFC fighter boasts far more combat sport experience.
Despite this Brooke remains confident ahead of her title defence and believes she is the one with more experience considering VanZant has never competed in a professional boxing bout.
Speaking at the press conference, the English fighter said: “She's never been in a ring. She's done bare knuckle, UFC, but never been in a ring. I have more experience there.
“I think she's tough so I don't think I'm going to knock her out. I'm going to be looking for it, if it happens it happens, I think it's going to be a five-round war. Good luck.”
American OnlyFans model and ex MMA star VanZant said: “It's interesting. Going face to face with your opponent, especially somebody you've been thinking about for so long, somebody you wake up and focus on.
“It's nice to put a face to the name, get eyes on your opponent, put your hands on them, get an idea of what their mindset is like.
“Speaking with her today, I can definitely tell that she does not have the strength and mindset I have coming into this.”
Fans can watch the full card live on DAZN from 7pm ET and 12am BST.
