AJ Bunker has broke down in tears during an emotional video just days after losing to OnlyFans star Astrid Wett.
The ex-Love Island star took on Wett in her third boxing fight last weekend as the pair fougt for the influencer flyweight title. but despite having bright moments in a back-and-forth encounter, Bunker was narrowly beaten by majority decision to hand her the second defeat of her career.
Wett had already burst into tears at the final bell as her celebrations turned emotional after she achieved her goal of becoming the queen of the division. And in an emotional response to the loss, Bunker has herself burst into tears on an emotional Instagram video assessing the weekend's event.
"I really wanted to take that belt home and I had all my family and friends there to support me," Bunker said while sobbing on her latest Instagram stories. "Just to not be able to get that win is the worst feeling in the world. Obviously I'm really happy for Astrid, but it just doesn't take away from the fact that I feel so s*** about it.
"I just feel like I could have done so much better. But I do want to say a big thank you to the people who have been sending really supportive messages. Like you don't understand how much that means to me right now. And to the people that are saying 'change your name' I am going to do it now and change my name to AJ Flunker to be fair.
"It should happen because I lose the bet and it was a bet that I made and I am a woman of my word. I really appreciate Misfits for giving me the opportunity but I really feel I could have done better. I know I am so much better than the performance. I am going to come back and I am going to do it by watching it back and learning from my mistakes."

Bunker was looking to become champion and take on step closer to securing a rematch with bitter rival Elle Brooke, but it appears Wett has now stolen that shot and could reschedule a meeting of her own with Brooke. Wett immediately made a call to fight her rival next, but it remains unclear if plans can be put in place.
"The weight class is difficult. If you want the belt, you'll come down," she said. "If you win a belt at your weight, I'll have to come up. So yeah, I'm happy with mine. I was very confident. I trained so hard for this and was so well conditioned. I'm very proud of myself. If AJ wants to prove she's on my level - she was very close - I'm more than happy for a rematch. I'm looking forward not backwards."
