But Gotti has been forced to withdraw from the event releasing a statement on social media.<\/p>\n

She has revealed that an MRI scan showed she had a brain aneurysm in a worrying condition, that has prevented her from boxing for good.<\/p>\n

Despite her withdrawal, Misfits Boxing organisers have scrambled to make a late change.<\/p>\n

And now former one-fight Bellator star Nguyen has been drafted in as a late replacement.<\/p>\n

The 7-13 professional MMA fighter competed in MMA until 2024 before seemingly announcing her retirement.<\/p>\n

But she has since competed in the bare-knuckle boxing ranks with appearances in Conor McGregor<\/a>‘s BKFC and BKB.<\/p>\n

Bellsy released the news on her own X account, which read: “Firstly, I want to send my love, strength and prayers to Leah Gotti. <\/p>\n

“Health always comes first, and I wish her nothing but a full and speedy recovery as she focuses on getting well.<\/p>\n

“While the opponent may have changed, the mission remains exactly the same.”<\/p>\n

Nguyen was set to make her debut later, but she has leapt at the opportunity to step in earlier.<\/p>\n

As part of her entourage, she will be joined by five-time BKFC champion Britain Hart.<\/p>\n

Fury and Hall will headline an event with social media bragging rights at stakeHall ready for Fury test<\/p>\n

Former World’s Strongest Man Hall has a big opportunity to try and upset an established boxing name in Fury.<\/p>\n

The younger brother of Tyson Fury<\/a> has opted to pursue influencer-style more lucrative bouts as opposed to the traditional route.<\/p>\n

Hall is up against it having had just one fight in the squared circle ranks, a defeat to fellow strongman Thor Bjornsson.<\/p>\n

But after carrying an injury to that bout, he is confident some tactical tweaks<\/a> can help give him an edge.<\/p>\n

He told talkSPORT.com: \u00a0“It will be a lot different to that fight.<\/p>\n

“I went into the Thor fight while throwing nothing but right hands, because I couldn’t throw my left hand.<\/p>\n
