Misfits boxing star Ashley Fongho rapped his way to the ring with band Rak-Su before claiming his third straight victory.
The 31-year-old was joined by Jamaal Shurland and Myles Stephenson, who he won the 14th series of X-Factor with in 2017, on stage as he made his ring walk on Saturday (September 23) night.
The trio performed one of their songs, with Ashley rapping his verse ahead of meeting influencer Halal Ham in the ring. It's fair to say it didn't go down particularly well with fans watching on at home.

One posted on social media: “That was awful, had to mute it." Another argued: “I can't lie, this was horrendous."
"The music is horrible but the vibes are good," wrote a third, while a fourth commented: “Should have performed some OG X-Factor songs, they were class."
Fortunately for Ashley, his performance in the ring was better received by the judges, who awarded him a unanimous decision victory.
