In a candid session on Facebook tonight, former Bachelorette and future boxing hopeful Nazanin Khanjani dished about her current relationship with former flame Jordan Mauger, her road to the boxing ring and how she’s dealt with the vicious comments from her online haters.
With her upcoming appearance as undercard to Joseph Parker on July 21, plenty of the Facebook fans watching wanted to know who Naz would be facing in the ring. While the brunette beauty stayed mum on her opponent, she did reveal that she didn’t think any of her fellow bachelorettes would pose a big challenge.
“I think I’d be able to take on all of them – one at a time though,” she quipped.
As for Jordan himself, the Iranian-born landscaper said the pair would “see what happens” in future.
“If anything does happen down the track then I guess yeah, we will give it a shot. But he’s been busy, I’ve been busy – we still have a lot to learn about each other.”

And what about that notorious ‘other’ Jordan who claimed to have text messages from Naz during her appearance on The Bachelor New Zealand?
“All I’m going to comment about this other Jordan guy is a) he’s not my ex boyfriend and b) he’s just some sore loser from Christchurch trying to get his 15 minutes of fame,” she said.
“He got it, and that’s that. Done and dusted – bye!”
While Naz clearly has no problem speaking up for herself, she admits the reaction from the public has been hard to deal with.
“It does get me down a little bit, just because it does take its toll after a while. I’ve just learned to move along and just ignore it because I don’t know these people and they’re judging me by what they’ve seen on a reality TV show,” she said, adding that she had yet to hear any negative comments in person.
“I just hope that New Zealand does give me a chance to get to know me as me, not the character they’ve seen on the show.”
