Brooklyn is 32 years old; she stands 5'9, holding a record of 45 wins, 34 coming by way of knockout, with 17 defeats, she is also a former FCBA lightweight champion.
They fought back in 2017 on the beaches of Miami, it took eight rounds for Brooklyn to knock out Kendall in what was a lightweight contest, over two years later and the two meet in a catch weight fight.
The fighters stepped into a stage for the press conference and weigh in; the limit for the fight is 135lbs with first up Kendall getting on the scales in a light blue bikini, weighing in at 131lbs as she flexes her muscles to her roaring supporters.
Brooklyn laughs at Kendall before waving her off the scale, she poses on it with her arms at her side wearing a red string bikini, while telling Kendall "this is a real woman's body you bytch" she comes in at 134lbs with her supporters chanting her name.
Face to face go the fighters for the photo op, words can be seen being exchanged and judging by reactions, it isn't exactly a friendly exchange of views on show.
So much so that the girls end up in a hair tugging fight, Brooklyn showing her extra weight by tugging Kendall towards her, before Kendall shows how sneaky she can be by digging her nails on her right hand into the tit of Decker.
Security with coaches manage to pry the two apart, a let them fight chant breaks out, with both women looking ready to brawl across the stage if they could be let go.
Instead things settle down enough thanks to help from a wall of security between the two camps, Kendall's hair is more of a mess of the two women, Brooklyn has nail marks visible on her left boob.
It is Kendall who speaks first "as you see two years hasn't exactly quelled my urge to punch that bimbo's lights out, she was lucky the first time we fought!"
Making Brooklyn interrupt "I was lucky! I laid you the f*** out on that beach, you are lucky I didn't ask my management to fight you, I had bigger fish to fight then a fake like you!"
"A f***ing fake! I have proven that I am for real, just ask your stablemates that I have pounded in!" Yells Kendall as tempers are rising again, the fighters are being told to calm down.
As Brooklyn fires back "thank your lucky stars these big guys are blocking me right now because I will hurt you, especially for you going for my boobs you flat chested cow!"
That sets things off again; Kendall throwing the microphone down to get at Brooklyn, who is happy to throw down with Kendall, problem is security drags the fighters off opposite sides of the stage, boos ringing out as the crowd wanted to see a no holds barred catfight between them.
Fight night; Kendall is out first with her coach Taryn Terrell and cut woman Eva Carneiro beside her, Kendall is throwing punches on the way down the aisle, looking in a foul mood already.
