Egypt Criss’ husband, Sam Wright, is speaking out after facing criticism online following her recent boxing loss.
Over the weekend, Egypt Criss—daughter of hip-hop legend Treach of Naughty by Nature—stepped into the ring against Olympic taekwondo champion Jade Jones. The bout also marked Jones’ boxing debut after previously capturing gold medals in taekwondo at the 2012 and 2016 Summer Olympics.
During the fight, Jones secured the victory after knocking Egypt out, sparking a wave of reactions across social media.
Following the match, Egypt’s husband Sam Wright responded to critics who targeted her online, defending her efforts and addressing the backlash surrounding the loss. The situation also drew attention after Treach publicly criticized Wright, reportedly calling him a “clout-chasing clown” and accusing him of influencing Egypt to support him financially.
Despite the controversy, Wright made it clear he stands firmly behind his wife as she deals with the aftermath of the fight and the public scrutiny that followed.
