She wrote on Instagram: ”Hi guys, thank you for your support. First time in my life after a fight, I cannot say I’m okay.

“Like you see, at the beginning of the first round, I have broken small bone here.

"I couldn’t see nothing. My vision was double and everything was like in the fog.”

Kowalkiewicz was unable to travel due to her injuries and had to remain in New Zealand.

She added in a tearful video message: “After the fight, I spent all day in the hospital.

“Today I going to a specialist and they (are) going to make a decision because I need an operation. And I’m waiting for a decision here or I go back to Poland and make this operation in Poland.
