While boxing fans were gutted at news of Mathie's withdrawal, they'll be delighted that Bridges has found another opponent as she bids to defender her IBF women's bantamweight title. <\/p>\n

Her left eye ballooned in size, leaving her unable to see properly. But, ever the joker, Bridges made light of the dramatic incident after the fight. <\/p>\n
