Published: | Updated:
Former NRL WAG turned boxer Arabella Del Busso is set to fight Aussie TV star Monique Bovino at a Misfits boxing event later in the year.
The reality TV contestant and ex-girlfriend of NRL star Josh Reynolds has secured an opponent who is well known to Aussie fight fans.
Bovino, who works as a TV and radio reporter and has previously been a traffic reporter on Sunrise, took to Instagram on Thursday to share a post announcing that she would be squaring off against Del Busso.
'@misfittsboxing fighter and model @littlebellsy set to fight @daznboxing commentator and model @moniquebovino in epic clash of Australian beauties later this year,' the post announced.
Del Busso also shared the post on her Instagram account, showing her enthusiasm for the match-up.
Bovino is no novice to the sport, having fought as an amateur and planning to go pro in a couple of years.

The Sydney product also counts former world champion Ebanie Bridges as a close friend, having trained at the same gym with her in North Rocks.
Over the weekend, Del Busso stunned onlookers when she was caught throwing kicks at Carla at the Misfits Boxing 22 event in Manchester, England.
Dressed in daring white lingerie, the 35-year-old was caught on camera throwing kicks at her rival Carla Jade following her fight against Daryn Harris, as security guards tried to restrain her.
'I’m the champ, fight somebody for f**kin' real! And that’s me! You’re next, b**ch. You’re next!' Del Busso screamed.
'We’ve seen how that turns out before, hun! All squealy, "I’m the champ!" You just came off a loss!' Jade shouted back, referring to the moment Del Busso was defeated by Andrea-Jane Bunker in their 2023 Misfits showdown.
The former SAS Australia star shared footage of what appeared to be a staged incident on Instagram on Monday.
Del Busso explained in the caption that she halted proceedings at the boxing tournament to confront Jade.
'Little Bellsy storms the ring, challenging the current Misfits champion Carla Jade in Manchester, this morning,' she wrote.
Known for sharing steamy pictures on her social media, Del Busso also posted a photo of herself posing ringside in lace underwear and a bra she paired with a sheer wrap.

Del Busso, whose real name is Donna Preusker, shocked fans when she launched her boxing career.
Making her ring debut in Melbourne in 2022, she later appeared on the undercard of the Misfits Boxing event in London the following year.
Del Busso was carried out to the ring for the match against boxer 'Lil Kymchii' on a golden chair before going on to beat her opponent via a unanimous decision at the Wembley Arena.
She also made headlines last year when she was discharged from Australia's largest female prison.
The controversial sports star's release came after she served five months in jail for stealing $52,000 from her former employer, where she had worked as a receptionist for a Sydney medical business.
After her release from Dillwynia Women's Correctional Centre in Sydney, she is understood to have begun a new life with her then-boyfriend in Melbourne.
