After the fight, Bridges took a shot at O’Connell for calling a “skanky stripper” before the fight.
“Not bad for a skanky stripper I must say, not bad for a skanky stripper,” Bridges said post-fight.
“I’m not usually disrespectful to my opponent but she was so disrespectful to me the whole time. So I can’t really give her that much respect – she can hit but. She can bang.
“She came, she was hungry, she was fierce. But I was better, and that’s why I’m the champion.”
