Kingpyn Boxing
Daniella Hemsley was already a social media star prior to her fight last weekend at Kingpyn Boxing.
Hemsley, and Instagram model and content creator, had over 100,000 followers on her Instagram page.
But after Hemsley’s victory over fellow influencer and model Ms. Danielka via unanimous decision, she’s now a much, much bigger star.
Though it may not be for the reasons you’d think.
After picking up the victory, Hemsley got a little too into the moment and celebrated by flashing both the live crowd and the cameras covering the event for DAZN.
The move angered a number of people in the boxing world and Hemsley was removed from another upcoming fight on the streaming service.
But make no mistake, she has not been banned from promotion.
Hemsley explained that the flashing was actually a result of a wardrobe malfunction.
“Everything has gone crazy,” she said on her YouTube channel. “I hope you’ve all had a really good weekend and I hope you’ve really enjoyed this weekend’s antics, you’ve enjoyed my win, seeing me get my first win and I really hope you enjoyed the celebration after. I have the funniest story to tell you guys about that.
“I’m in the dressing room before my fight. I’m stickering up, guys. Like, I actually had flame nipple stickers. I’ll insert them right here [shows image] that I intended to wear. Before my post-fight celebration, I was only gonna pull my top up if I won. With my flames, you know, because ‘girl on fire’ sorts of vibes. I won my fight, I pull my top up and the stickers got stuck in my bra so the whole world saw my tits. My tits were out to everyone. I mean, I’m sure most of you aren’t complaining.”
But despite the display that some are calling lewd and unnecessary, Hemsley insists she’s welcome back to the promotion.
“There is a lot of speculation in the media at the moment about me being banned. Article after article after article. I am not banned from Kingpyn, guys,” she said. “I have simply decided to take a few weeks off from training, to recover, to recover my body, and I plan on coming back fighting again hopefully in the winter.”
Hemsley may well be back on a Kingpyn card sometime soon. But something tells us she’ll be toning down her celebration should she win.
