'Really disrespected the country': Aussie claims world champ would 'rather vacate' than fight in Oz.

“The only reason she’s getting paid what she is is because the only way Eddie Hearn could save her a** was to win the purse bid. Remarkably, O’Connell claimed she has “been told they are banking on the crowd to spook” her. “The money would have been the same for her as it would have been here because they (Matchroom Boxing) won the purse bid and Eddie Hearn could have put it in Australia. “She’s not a skanky stripper, she’s a skanky stripper wannabe,” O’Connell said. Shannon O’Connell believes Ebanie Bridges has “really disrespected” Australia by wanting their all-Aussie title fight to be held in Leeds and sensationally claimed the champ would “rather vacate than fight again in Australia.” It has O’Connell feeling “like it’s definitely an Australian fighting a Brit” and if anything, ‘Shotgun’ is “more British than she is” due to her father being born in England.
