EBANIE BRIDGES has thrown her support over to Elle Brooke and Jake Paul while naming Tyson Fury as her dream Christmas dinner guest.
Bridges trains with Only Fans star-turned celebrity boxer Brooke and helped corner her to a win in July.
So when asked about the new age of "YouTube Boxing" in Matchroom's end of year review, the Australian praised her stable-mate.
She said: "My friend Elle Brooke, I see her in the gym for the last four-five months, she's never put on a glove before.
"I've seen her come in the gym every single day, work just as hard as all of us, she's so dedicated and she's so disciplined.
'I ventured into Alcatraz after dark and was terrified by what I saw and heard'
"She listens, just because of the whole YouTube fame and the TokTik fame and all of that stuff, doesn't mean she doesn't take it seriously because she's fallen in love with it and she does take it seriously.
"The only difference is, instead of doing the amateurs like you would when you first start out and put on gloves and no one sees it, these TikTokers and YouTubers are having their first few fights with like this huge audience.
"So we're looking at them going, 'Oh, they can't box, they can't do this and that.' Of course they can't, they're novices."
American Paul, 25, is perhaps the most successful crossover boxer, having amassed an unbeaten 6-0 record.
But it is not his pay-per-view wins over ex-UFC champions Tyron Woodley, 40, or Brazilian legend Anderson Silva, 47, that impresses Bridges most.

It is instead his work as a promoter to women's champion Amanda Serrano, 35, who he helped turn into a star overnight and millionaire fighter.
Bridges said: "Look at Jake Paul and Serrano, that's just a little example.
"Serrano wouldn't even be known globally or making that kind of money if it wasn't for people like Jake Paul.
"And I think he genuinely loves boxing and wants to help people."

Bridges, 36, is coming off a stoppage win over Aussie rival Shannon O'Connell, 39, and hopes for a title unification this year.
The IBF bantamweight champion linked up with adult film actress Brooke for a Christmas collaboration on her OnlyFans.
But when it comes down to a dream dinner guest for Christmas dinner, there is only one winner.
Bridges said: "Maybe Tyson Fury."
