Mathie underwent surgery to have her breast implants removed with fans speculating in the comments section of an upload the transformation she had undergone.

As speculation intensified, Mathie addressed the matter and detailed the reason behind having the implants taken out after 18 years.

“If you noticed something on me looking a little differently lately, you’re right. Seven weeks ago I removed my breast implants after 18 years,” she said.

Before.

After.

“I got my first implants when I was only 19 because the culture I grew up in had me believing that I was out of proportion – and I was so insecure about my body.

“I never loved or hated having them, but I did appreciate that from one day to the next I went from super self conscious to just comfortable in my body and never giving it another thought.

“In the last couple of years I’ve seen girls I know remove their implants due to breast implant illness and I didn’t necessarily think I had that, but it did prompt me to go and get them checked.

She hasn't fought since 2023

She's loving her new body.

“Even though they looked perfect from the outside, the scans revealed that the implants were actually not in the best condition and while not an emergency, the doctor recommended that I consider removal or replacement.

“Not gonna lie, the recovery was absolutely brutal and I’m still not back to 100 per cent yet – which has been a delay on me getting back to boxing.”

Mathie said she has fallen back in love with her body and is feeling like her old self following the surgery.

“Honestly, it was one of the best decisions of my life,” she said.

She has an 8-1-1 professional record.

Mathie was due to return to the boxing ring in December last year to take on Ebanie Bridges in a bout dubbed the “battle of the boobs”.

The showdown between the two Aussies was given the busty billing due to both women stripping down to their underwear for weigh-ins.

But just weeks out from the fight Mathie was forced to pull the pin after sustaining an injury as Miyo Yoshida stepped in at the last minute to take on Bridges.

In a stunning upset, Yoshida pummelled Bridges to win the IBF Bantamweight world title via a unanimous judges’ decision.

Mathie hasn’t announced if she will be stepping back into the ring to add to her 8-1-1 record.
