On Saturday, the Kingpyn Boxing event in Dublin, Ireland, had an unexpected twist when 22-year-old Hemsley, a former star turned fighter, gave the crowd more than they bargained for.

The fight night, with YouTube celebrities Whinderrson Nunes and King Kenny headlining, showcased several prominent names stepping into the ring.

At the sound of the final bell, the judges rendered their scores in favor of Hemsley, with a tally of 48-47, 48-47, and 49-46.

However, the true surprise unfolded after the fight, as the 22-year-old stunned everyone by lifting her sports bra, revealing more than anyone had anticipated.

The X-rated moment at the 3Arena left the audience taken aback.

During her post-fight interview, Hemsley offered an apology for the unexpected display, clarifying that she was merely attempting to express herself.

She later wrote on Instagram: "I DID IT! Ola definitely didn't have a walk in the park (her words) but big respect, that was true WAR!

"I also apologize to anyone who may have felt offended by my excitement, I did actually have tassels on but the sweat stuck them to my bra lol."

Boxing sensation Claressa Shields strongly criticized Hemsley, stating: "Wow… this is a step backwards for women's boxing. Stop this s***."

Eddie Hearn, arguably the sport's biggest promoter, also directed criticism at the topless boxer.

He said of influencer boxing: "I think if I start preaching people just moan at me anyway, but you always ask me my opinion.

"And my opinion is I hate it."

"I hate it, we've worked so hard for women in boxing to be respected for their ability, for their merits, for their hard work."

"One thing we must understand is that ain't boxing."

"And that needs to be pushed, all that stuff, Misfits, Kingpyn, it needs to be booted so far away from professional boxing and we really need to disassociate ourselves with what it is."
