Brooke is a risqué OnlyFans entertainer-turned-boxer and the MFB middleweight champion, beating AJ Bunker to win the belt. She started fighting in 2022 and is 4-1, competing in exhibition and pro fights. The 26-year-old has over 934K followers on Instagram and 2.3 million followers on TikTok.
“X Series 15 will go down in history as the night the female division, in all of crossover boxing, was taken to a whole new level,” Misfits Co-President Mams Taylor said via MMA Fighting.
A second-round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers, Bell last played in 2021 with the Buccaneers. The 32-year-old Bell fought former football star Adrian Peterson in an exhibition in September 2022, knocking him out in the fifth round. Bell has since fought twice, going 1-1 at the pro level.
Hamm is an outdoorsman and fitness trainer with two million followers on Instagram and 99.4K followers on TikTok. He beat Rodney Peterson (known as "Not Logan Paul") in January.
