      The glam 33-year-old is a regular on the circuit, often showing off her enviable figure at a Misfits Boxing and Bare Knuckle Championship events.
      While she also runs her own stable of promo models with her own agency ‘Finesse Ring Girls.’
      Last month, Carla made her long-awaited Misfits Boxing debut – defeating Tasha Kiran of Ibiza Weekender fame on points in a bruising battle.
      It was the culmination of patience and hard work that allowed her to enter a world where cattiness scores your brownie points, foes and potentially huge pay day.

      Speaking to SunSport, Carla revealed why she wanted to get involved with Misfits.
      “I have always been an active person and I like the gym,” the fierce brunette said.
      “I used to do some pad punching. I always wanted to fight, but I knew I didn’t have the time to commit myself to it or the skill to try it professionally.
      “So when the YouTube stuff started picking up and people were getting really well paid for it, I thought I should dedicate some serious time to it.

      “Being a ring girl, I obviously fall into the category. It was my calling – I just had to do it.”
      Carla was approached to fight against Tash Weekender at the eleventh hour as a replacement.
      She had three weeks to get herself into shape, and didn’t hesitate when Misfits Boxing co-founder Mams Taylor gave her a call.
      Carla said: “Mams got in touch and asked if I want to take a fight, and I said ‘yeah, sure!’ I didn’t even know who I was up against. I was just so eager to get in the ring.”
      A tough training camp then began. She continued: “You think you know what it’s all about and then you start properly training and realise how hard it is.
      “I had three weeks to get ready before I had to fight. At that point I had stopped boxing completely.
      “I was running my agency, and I wasn’t ready. I didn’t even have a gym membership!”
      “I sparred at Shootfighters gym in London, but had to cram in so much. I absolutely loved it though.”
      Honest Carla admitted there was some trepidation when it came to her preparations.
      “The first time I ever had any fear for what I was about to do was when I drove to my first sparring session,” she confessed.

      “I didn’t know what sparring was and where I train is like a proper gym. For about 20 seconds I started to think, ‘I am driving somewhere to get my face punched in. Do I want to do this?”
      Carla came to the peace with the idea when she realised getting hit in a sparring session made her feel more savage.
      “I remember I got hit hard once and thought that wasn’t very nice, but it sort of egged me on a bit.
      “From that point, I knew I didn’t mind getting punched in the face.”
      As was proven by the latest Misfits Boxing card, with KSI and Tommy Fury going head-to-head, influencer fights are to be taken seriously and they are big business.
      For that reason, the events need to be a spectacle, which Carla believes the Misfits Boxing organisation understands and is proving to excel in.
      “For me it is about being able to put on a great production,” she said.
      “We’ve had leagues like this before, but not at the same level. Being able to provide the fighters with such a massive platform, great experience, treat them like actual professionals, and pay us well – it’s really amazing what Misfits Boxing is doing.
      “I know it gets a lot of stick from other people, and some people don’t like it but eight of 10 of the fighters you see at these events really take it seriously.
      “There are some that may be there for the pay cheque, but everyone I’ve seen just loves it.

      “Even when some of the girls get beaten, they’re back and they want to defend their reputation.
      “I think it’s there to be respected and people should give it some credit.”
      Carla is new to the Misfits Boxing world, and although there are naysayers who will complain that she is only in the position because she’s a ring girl, she hopes to silence those doubters.
      She has also had plenty of offers for fights already.
      She said: “I’m putting in the work like everyone else to get into that position. It’s really hard.
      “It’s funny because I know I am not that well known. But as soon as I won my last fight all these random girls started offering me out.
      “The best one was I had one girl wait outside my hotel room, screaming she wanted to fight me.
      “I didn’t think it would be that easy to get another opponent or this fun!”
      The bitchiness that exists in the women’s game at Misfits Boxing begins on social media, where rivals bash each other, and escalates into full blown rows at press conferences and more.
      “It’s sort of like TV. In the normal world, if someone barges me in a shop I’m not going to start on them!” Carla joked.

      “It takes a lot to irritate me, but at the same time I do enjoy it. So, if I am allowed to gob off, and get paid to do it let’s go!” More

      Misfits star Deen the Great ‘broke his hand on Walid Shark’s FACE’ and shares moment he dislocated shoulder during fight

      by

      MISFITS BOXING star Deen the Great boasted of beating rival Walid Sharks with a broken hand and dislocated shoulder. Deen – real name Nurideen Shahid Shabazz – won their initial thriller last year by knockout.

      So it set up a blockbuster rematch on the undercard of KSI’s eventual loss to Tommy Fury in Manchester.
      Deen got off to a quick start by dropping Walid – real name Walid Muhsein – and racing to an early lead.
      But disaster almost struck in round three after the American missed with a wild one-two combination.
      Tellingly, Deen quickly switched to the southpaw stance and only threw with his lead right hand.

      Recounting the incident, he posted on X, formerly Twitter: “When my shoulder dislocated midfight! Switched southpaw.”
      Deen went onto recover but had to survive a late fifth and final round onslaught by Walid.
      The Misfits lightweight champion subsequently revealed he also suffered a broken right hand as he shared an X-ray photo.
      Deen said: “Broke my hand on his face lol… be back soon ya’ll.”

      “Let’s make this bread because ain’t nobody else in the influencer scene can f*** with me.
      “Or if Ryan wanna run it. Ryan Garcia, anybody can get it.”

      Internet sensation Logan Paul also featured on the Misfits Boxing card as he beat MMA star Dillon Danis by disqualification.
      After the event, former world champion boxer Froch, 46, called on Misfits Boxing to come to an end, labelling the concept “absolute crap”.
      Now IBF bantamweight champion Bridges, 37, has had her say as she directly hit back at Froch’s comments on social media.
      Responding to a tweet quoting Froch’s words, she said: “But yet y’all keep watching it, talking about it, promoting it, sharing it, good or bad this will keep it growing and making money…
      READ MORE ON MISFITS BOXING
      “I feel like there is a lot more boxing casual fans than purists… and the casuals barely know the difference between good and bad boxing.
      “Look at how many people thought McGregor could beat Mayweather…. Like the fact people actually debated that shows purists and traditional boxing fans are the minority.
      “NOT TO MENTION these events are PACKED from the first fight.. and it ain’t purists filling those arenas out….u never see that in pro boxing shows, NEVER. So keep whinging and promoting it 😂.”
      She continued: “You all complain like influencer boxing IS pro boxing… it’s not lol, it’s a circus and it’s entertainment just like WWE.

      “Stop comparing and expecting it to be like pro boxing, that’s like asking MMA to be like pro boxing 🤦🏼‍♀️. Just let the guys make their money, they ain’t fighting for WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO world titles or taking anyones money…
      “They making money cos they are famous in their own right… got nothing to do with boxing skill… people need to chill tf out. It’s embarassing watching the boxing world complain.”
      One fan then pulled Bridges up on her comment about McGregor – who was stopped by Mayweather in the 10th round of their crossover bout in 2017.
      McGregor and Bridges have been pictured together in recent months, with the boxing world champion helping to promote his Forged Irish Stout brand.
      The fan said: “That’s the forged stout sponsorship gone 😂😂😂.”
      To which Bridges replied: “Not at all, the guy made bank with that fight, he’s smart.
      “He ain’t a soft c**k like half the people on here and gonna cry about not being a favourite to beat one of the all time greatest boxers…”
      Bridges then finished her rant by replying to another of her followers who asked what Fury is gaining from being a part of YouTuber boxing.

      Bridges said: “Cash. Money. In the end of the day when u retire, u want to have money for u and ur family.
      “Pretty sure he and his family know he will never be a world champion so he might as well capitalise in influencer boxing.” More

      The Problem Child has not been in the ring since beating Nate Diaz in May, having tasted defeat for the first time at the hands of Fury before that.
      Now, he has revealed he is eyeing December 15 for his highly-anticipated return.
      A potential opponent is yet to be named, but Paul declared he would be looking to face a professional boxer as he continues his unlikely quest to become a world champion.
      Ahead of last Saturday’s fights, Paul said: “I’m looking at some pro boxers.

      “Because I want to take this more traditional boxing route of moving up into the rankings, fighting professionals and taking the route to become world champion like a prospect of my calibre. 
      “So we’re looking at some pro boxers and they’re not going to be big names by any means.”
      Asked if that comes with risk, Paul said: “I want to be world champion, though. And there’s risk, for sure. 
      “But, for me I want to challenge myself, continue to grow in this sport and get to the top of it, from a skill level, 100 per cent that’s my goal.”

      The fight is set to not be a Pay-Per-View bout, with Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) teaming up with DAZN to announce the date.
      It will be his ninth professional bout, having won seven and lost one so far.
      That loss to Fury was the only time Paul had come up against a boxing professional, having previously taken on a host of fellow social media stars and MMA fighters.
      The 26-year-old told MVP: “Eight fights in the boxing game and I’m already its biggest name.
      “I’ve proved that I can headline the biggest global events and defy the odds. PPV after PPV after PPV, and I’m just getting started.
      “My mission is to be a world champion and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to get there. December 15th is the next step on my journey, and I promise you’re not going to want to miss it.”
      After the fight, Fury claimed he was “done” with crossover events, before immediately calling out the Paul brothers.
      He said: “I’m done with the bulls***. F*** the bulls****, on to the next challenge. Any of the Pauls want it I welcome it with open arms.” More

      He stood to win £1.1million if the WWE star beat Danis via knockout in the co-main event of Misfits Boxing’s Prime card.
      However, Drake had appeared to lose his bet after the bout went the distance.
      The controversial ending to the fight has instead seen him cash in his incredible bet.
      As the final bell rang, Danis attempted to choke out Paul, prompting a brawl to break out in the ring and the Bellator fighter was disqualified.
      READ MORE BOXING NEWS
      Disqualifications count as technical knockouts, meaning Drake was paid out on his massive bet.
      His win saw him avoid his alleged “curse” when it comes to betting on major sporting events.
      Fans have previously noticed that the musician has lost a series of huge bets, most recently on UFC 293 last month.
      Drake had backed Israel Adesanya to defend his middleweight title, only for Stylebender to suffer a shock defeat to Sean Strickland.

      THE scorecards for Tommy Fury’s win over KSI have been corrected after a mistake by one of the judges left fans fuming.Fury, 24, had claimed a majority decision win after the judges scores read 57-56, 57-56 and 57-57.

      But the one official that adjudged the six-rounder to be a draw, Rafael James, failed to add up his scores correctly.
      Now that has been rectified so all three scores read 57-56 in Fury’s favour.
      It means the Love Island star is the winner by UNANIMOUS decision.
      Fans were left raging on social media when they spotted the original mathematical mistake from the judge.
