Fans sure Eddie Hearn is 'still thinking of Ebanie Bridges weigh-in' in sofa interview

dailystar.co.uk:

Boxing fans are convinced Eddie Hearn was "still thinking of Ebanie Bridges' weigh-in" in a sit-down interview with the world champion.Bridges, 35, has a tendency to step onto the scales wearing just her lingerie and did just that ahead of her latest fight last weekend, which saw her become the new IBF bantamweight world champion.

The Blonde Bomber also loves to tease promoter Hearn in the process. As a married man, the 42-year-old is often left looking awkward on the stage.

But as the pair shared a sofa to reflect on Bridges' title win with Matchroom Boxing, adamant viewers felt Hearn was thinking back to the pre-fight preparations.One crudely commented: "Eddie is cross-legged, for obvious reasons." A further two fans added: "Eddie's sat like he's still thinking about the weigh-in" and "Eddie looks like he's still thinking about the weigh-in" as they echoed the sentiment.And another even wrote: "It's obvious that Eddie has to try hard to keep it more professional with Ebanie than he does anyone else". Who should Bridges face next?

Let us know in the comments section. During the interview, Hearn said that he did not feel comfortable during Bridges' victory over Argentine Maria Cecilia Roman, but not because of her skimpy weigh-in clothing.He instead was fearful that the judges may score the fight against her due to the nature of women's boxing. "Women's boxing over two-minute rounds, there are a lot more closer rounds," Hearn began."I felt that Ebanie was winning the fight comfortably but I was screaming from ringside saying: 'just keep working just keep doing more'.
