‘He picked it’ – Ebanie Bridges jokes eye-popping dress worn while watching Anthony Joshua vs Usyk was chosen by Brook

EBANIE BRIDGES joked the outfit she wore to watch Anthony Joshua’s loss to Oleksandr Usyk was picked out by Kell Brook.

Bantamweight world champion Bridges, 35, went to Boxpark Croydon with retired welterweight Brook, 36, for the huge heavyweight clash on Saturday night.

On Sunday, Bridges then shared an image of her with the ex-world champ and claimed he had selected her outfit for the evening.

Speaking on social media, she said: “He picked this outfit… #ThanksKell.”

Prior to AJ’s split decision defeat to Usyk, Bridges posted a picture of her and Brook.

And she added a flirty caption which read: “Imagine the kids
? #JustSaying”.

Bridges boasts a professional record of eight wins and one loss – with her only defeat coming to Shannon Courtenay.

In her last outing in March, she beat Maria Cecilia Roman to claim the IBF bantamweight crown.

Meanwhile, Brook hung up his gloves earlier this year after a long-awaited clash with rival Amir Khan.

The Sheffield-born fighter stopped Khan in six rounds with a sensational performance.

But, with fights against the likes of Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn rumoured to be in the works, Brook decided to retire.

He told The Telegraph: “I’ve had a long chat with my family and my parents, and it’s over for me. I’ll never box again.

“It’s a little emotional to be actually saying this out loud. My man is relieved. I think everyone around me is pleased.

“[The] truth is, boxing is a very, very tough, dangerous sport, one in which you can be legally killed In the ring.

“And I’ve finished with all my faculties intact.”
