Daniella Hemsley caused a stir when she recently celebrated her first boxing win by flashing the audience.
The OnlyFans star outpointed Ms. Danielka in the loser's bracket of the Kingpyn High Stakes tournament on Saturday night after suffering a debut defeat against Jully Poca in April.
After her victory was confirmed, Hemsley lifted up her sports bra to expose her breasts for those inside the 3Arena Dublin - and the fans watching at home on DAZN.
The influencer boxer apologised for her actions in a post-fight interview with Fred Talks Boxing, saying: "I got a bit overwhelmed, I just wanted to express myself."
But her MMA fighter boyfriend, Akonne Wanliss, revealed that Hemsley had always planned to make a splash with her celebration, although it wasn't supposed to be so X-rated.
“In YouTube boxing, they always do something to go viral and make a statement. That’s the name of the game in YouTube boxing," Wanliss told talkSPORT.com.

"It was planned beforehand. It was slightly different, we had nipple tassels but somewhere the nipples tassels got lost and her bare nipples were on show and everyone was going wild about that.
“I always say good press is bad press and bad press is good press. You just have to take everything with a pinch of salt and own what you’ve done.
“She means no harm about it, she’s just having a bit of fun out there, being a human being and showing her excitement.
“Some people may hate it, some people may love it. From my side, I always will support her, support that. I’m always like, ‘Get your t**s out! Get your t**s out!’”

Eddie Hearn was highly critical of Hemsley’s viral celebration after spending the last few years trying to build up women’s boxing.
Wanliss was somewhat surprised by Hearn’s comments after the Matchroom Sports chairman recently stood alongside Cherneka Johnson, who weighed in for her fight with Ellie Scotney wearing nothing but paint on the top half of her body.
"You’ve got boxers who are OnlyFans girls that are doing full-on porn on OnlyFans and they are coming out wearing the OnlyFans logo, not even wearing clothes, to a weigh-in,” he added.
“Essentially, they’ve got their t**s out, it’s just painted.
"They are doing the same thing. And then you’ve got boxers and MMA fighters from other organisations kissing each other, showing their t**s after shows.
“It happens. I’ve even seen Eddie Hearn standing with a title next to an OnlyFans girl. It’s very contradictory.
"If I ever meet Eddie Hearn I’d be like, ‘Bruv, come on. You promote the thing.’
“It doesn’t align with what he’s said before, but I don’t really care.”
