And speaking to the Daily Star, Elle has now revealed what sparring against her pal is like.
She said: “There have been quite a lot of spars. I was much worse back then.
“She used to batter the daylight out of me, but in a lovely way.
“She knew I was still a novice and it was within reason, but I couldn’t really land a punch on her.
“She is so strong as well. I wasn’t used to punching someone who was like a brick wall.
“Every shot I threw at her she just absorbed it. It was like something out of space, like a crazy f***king elephant.

“She’s skilful, she’s strong, she’s quick, and she’s experienced, so obviously I’m going to be worse than her in the ring.”
However, Elle has hinted their skill gap may have closed due to Bridges being sidelined after breaking her hand in her title fight with Shannon O’Connell.
Elle added: “I haven’t sparred with her recently because she’s had her hand surgery and she has been out of the game for a couple of months, but I am sparring with her soon, so we shall see.
“She’s had less sparring and I’ve had more sparring. It will be interesting to see where we will be with each other now.”
Bridges previously revealed how Elle had “fallen in love” with boxing.

Punching Techniques
There are seven types: Left Hook (right hook), Right Hook (uppercut), Cross (cross), Straight, Overhand, Underhand. Each punch is unique. Some punches require more force than others. For example, an uppercut requires great force. A straight punch, on the other hand requires less power and is quicker than other punches.
There are also different combinations. These are combinations of punches that work together to achieve a specific goal. One combination can have many parts. For example, a left hook followed by a right cross will cause damage to the opponent’s jaw.
Guard Techniques
A boxer protects himself by using his body. He does this by using his legs.
Legs
Boxers should use their legs to defend against kicks. When he’s hit, he raises his right leg and runs away from the attacker. To avoid being kicked on the sides, he bends at his knees when the attacker strikes from the front. If the attack is from the side, he will bend his knees to avoid being kicked on the side.
Elbows
Elbow strikes are very powerful because they inflict great pain. An elbow strike can be delivered either directly or indirectly. Directly refers to hitting your opponent with the forearm, while indirect means you hit him using another part of your arms.
Hands
Boxers use the power of their hands to block any incoming blows. Boxers use their hands to stop incoming punches. They raise their fists up above their heads and move towards the attack. Then they make contact with the attacker’s fist.
Knees
To absorb the impact of a punch to the stomach, abdomen, or chest, boxers should bend their knees. For defense purposes, knee strikes are common.
Feet
If he is being attacked, a boxer must take a step back and counter-attack. This allows him to put distance between himself, his opponent, and the ring. Also, boxers must maintain their balance while delivering counter-attacks.
Stances
In order to box effectively, a boxer needs to establish a stance. The way he defends him will be dictated by his stance. It defines where he faces his opponent and how he positions his body. Boxers have many stances to choose from. Here are the most commonly used ones:
- Low stance
- High stance
- Southpaw stance
- Western stance
Body Movement
A boxer must change his position, speed and rhythm in order to win the fight. This involves changing position, speed and rhythm.
Rotation
Rotating his arm to increase the puncher’s reach is a key part of boxing. The rotation is done at different speeds depending on the type of punch.
Combinations
The timing of each punch will determine the effectiveness and efficiency of a combination. A combination that is effective starts with a strong punch, and ends with one that is weak.
Spare parts
Sparring is a form of boxing that aims to improve your skills. Boxers learn to train their mind and bodies during sparring sessions. Sparring, in conclusion, is about learning how to fight and not getting hurt.
In conclusion, learning to box requires dedication and patience. To be a better boxer you need to train hard.
