Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) announced the signing of former IBF bantamweight champion Ebanie “The Blonde Bomber” Bridges (9-2, 4 KOs) to its growing roster. The addition of Bridges underscores MVP’s continued commitment to elevating women’s boxing and building the sport’s most dynamic, engaging fight cards. Bridges welcomed her first child in February 2025 and is targeting a return to the ring later this year as she looks to reclaim a world title.

 

Bridges is both ambitious inside and outside the ring. She holds a Master’s degree in Mathematics and Education, speaks three languages, is a qualified mechanic, a black belt in karate, and a savvy investor and businesswoman. Bridges has built a powerful personal brand while using her platform and resources to support other women in boxing. She lives a life rooted in gratitude and humility, often speaking out on key societal and cultural issues.

 

Originally a high school math teacher from New South Wales, Australia, Bridges left the classroom to chase her dream of becoming a world champion boxer in the UK—a dream she proudly realized by becoming the IBF bantamweight champion in 2022.

 

Now, a mother, Bridges, is on a new mission: to reclaim her world title and inspire women in sport to return stronger after childbirth and prove that nothing is impossible.

 

From working as a boxing ring girl to becoming a world champion, Bridges’ journey embodies perseverance and purpose. With her infectious personality and fearless mindset, she empowers people from all walks of life to believe in themselves and pursue their goals unapologetically.

 

“I’m very excited about signing with MVP. They’ve done amazing things for women’s boxing in such a short time,” said Bridges. “Proud to be joining a star-studded stable full of champions—current, former, and future world champions. I love and appreciate that MVP are truly investing in women’s boxing—for the right reasons. I believe that with MVP’s backing, promotion, and clever marketing, myself and women’s boxing will truly skyrocket.” 

 

“Ebanie Bridges is a star in every sense of the word,” said Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian, co-founders of Most Valuable Promotions. “She’s a world champion, a proven ticket seller, and a force of personality who brings new audiences into boxing. Now a devoted mother on a mission to reclaim her title, she continues to break boundaries both in and out of the ring. We’re thrilled to welcome another Aussie to the MVP family and can’t wait to help take her career to even greater heights.”
