I mean, I’ve had 6oz gloves, MMA gloves but this will be my biggest fight to date and my first time wearing these kind of gloves.”It’s not like bare-knuckle boxing, I believe it’s more comparable to a collision where bare-knuckle is more superficial with the cuts and things of such, you can break your hand like I did.”But I feel like I’m battle-tested because of bare-knuckle, I’m battle-tested because of my mixed martial arts background and overall I’ve just been submerged in boxing.Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS”Overall, I just feel like it’s going to be my night and I have no doubts.”The boxing newcomer took inspiration from WWE icon “Macho Man” Randy Savage.Elle Brooke’s 10 most liked Instagram postsBut she earned her nickname the hard way having debuted in MMA professionally in 2018.

I’m going to stop her.”I just have dreams about it. I have actually had dreams about getting this opportunity before.”I want to say, I was really down wondering what I was going to do next. “My first boxing fight in Nashville almost didn’t happen due to confusion in information.”I was like, ‘Dude, I really want this fight.’ I asked myself why and I went within.”And then I took a nap and had a dream that I was fighting Elle.”I’m pretty prophetic and when I commit, when I get away from fear and doubt, magical things happen.”Savage has a teenage son Cayden – whose father tragically committed suicide during the coronavirus pandemic.And she uses his sad passing as a form of inspiration to better her and son Cayden’s life.Savage opened up: “He lit a fire underneath me for my son – not spitefully because I was upset with him – but just to be the strong person that my son needs.”Because my son is just like his father; he’s bright, intelligent, misunderstood, a very beautiful human and I believe we all have our own beauty that we should embrace for ourselves.”We always anticipate the love for others but at the end of the day we’re the ones in that ring, in that cage, on that mat in the gym a lot of the times alone.READ MORE SUN STORIES”We’ve got to have that inner strength and be reminded that life is within us and we’ve got to pull it out sometimes ourselves.”It’s not easy but I believe it’s worth living and life is beautiful.”Savage says she even dreamed of fighting Elle Brooke one dayThe American has had boxing exhibitions beforeCredit: https://www.instagram.com/thetennesseegangster/ More
