Since it joined YouTube, ‘Behind The Gloves’ has created a niche space among boxing lovers. The brainchild of model, actress, and sports reporter Michelle Joy Phelps, the show, almost a decade old now, with nearly 9k uploads, boasts roughly 400k subscribers, besides the 150 million views. But that’s not the only feather on Joy Phelps’ hat. An aspect that perhaps gets sidelined by the more visible accomplishments remains her lending her voice to critical, concerning issues. For instance, today, she shared a video that displays the brutality of something that worries every parent.

The sports presenter enjoys a massive following as a model on OnlyFans also. She cited the desire to get a lovely retirement home in Florida for her parents as one of the reasons for joining the forum. Joy Phelps shared a half-a-minute video showing two girls kicking and beating a girl lying flat on the field. The kicking continued till the end, with one even hitting the unfortunate girl’s belongings away. Surprisingly a few onlookers are visible in the background, but they barely move to intervene.

This is not done! Michelle Joy Phelps

Initially tweeted by @Deanceejay13, the post mentioned that it happened to his step-sister, who went through the ordeal over the weekend. Exhorting all viewers to share the footage, he wondered why a bunch of angry girls should pounce on his sister, who otherwise couldn’t even scare a ghost, “This happened to my younger step-sister this weekend… [wouldn’t] say boo to a ghost yet pissed up girls in the park jumped her????

Incensed by the scene, Joy Phelps checked whether anyone knew the details of the perpetrators. She requested cyber detectives to intervene. She mentioned that such nasty behavior warranted throwing the offenders into a boxing ring to never forget the lesson. She said, “What are these girls @ names?! This is INFURIATING! Online sleuths need to find these chicks. Throw em’ in a boxing ring to get a real teaching!

A few months ago, Michell Joy Phelps shared a disturbing video of three people battering an autistic kid. Like the latest video, she found it utterly distressing to see people not doing anything to stop the atrocity.
