Talk about some added motivation to win a fight.
Bellator and PFL fighter Johnny Eblen is addressing the attention surrounding his model girlfriend’s viral video, where she threatened to end their relationship if he loses his upcoming fight.
In the video, Eblen’s girlfriend, Instagram model Jessenia Rebecca, candidly stated that she would leave him if he doesn’t emerge victorious in his upcoming match, despite him recently spending $85,000 on her for Valentine’s Day.

Rebecca reaffirmed her stance on Instagram, defending her honesty and asserting that attraction plays a significant role in their relationship dynamic.
“Since when was being honest wrong? Do you think if I stop being attractive or gained a bunch of weight he would be with me? No! He likes me cuz I’m attractive and I like him cuz he’s a CHAMPION. Either one of us can get dumped if we lose the thing that the other found attractive. Let’s start being honest in 2024”
However, Eblen remains unfazed by the spotlight on his personal life. In an interview with Mirror Fighting ahead of his PFL versus Bellator bout against Impa Kasanganay, he expressed his indifference to his girlfriend’s remarks.
Eblen clarified that the attention on his relationship doesn’t add any additional pressure on him. He remains focused solely on his fight, emphasizing that whatever the outcome, he is prepared to face it head-on.
