Misfits Boxing Elle Brooke vs Paige VanZant: Full card, start time & where to watch Houston showdown

The two women will headline the MF & DAZN: X Series 15 card in Houston, USA.

Brooke won the middleweight title with an impressive stoppage victory over AJ Bunker earlier this year.

The challenge is even tougher on this occasion as the English star takes on combat sport veteran VanZant.

The American boasts a 8-5 professional MMA record and has competed for the UFC in nine bouts.

Her last outing in the cage came all the way back in July 2020 when she lost in the first round to Amanda Ribas.

In the co-main event, former NFL player Le’Veon Bell battles Tristan Hamm. This is the opening quarter-final fight in the MFB Cruiserweight Championship tournament. 

Co-President of Misfits Boxing, Mams Taylor, said: “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.

“Elle Brooke, the brilliant Misfits Boxing Women’s Middleweight champion, has accepted one of the biggest tests out there, in facing a true former UFC and BKFC great, in the shape of Paige VanZant.

“It’s a phenomenal match-up and I cannot wait for it because May 25 will be yet another landmark night for the X Series.”

The show gets underway at 7pm ET and 12am BST. Main event ring walks are expected at around 11pm ET and 4am BST.

Fans can follow the action unfold live on DAZN.
