Tale of the tape:
Daisy Ridley:
Age: 27
Height: 5'7
11-7 (10KO's)
Vs
Helen Flanagan:
Age: 29
Height: 5'3
20-19 (19KO's)
Former BBU bantamweight champion
This weeks poll sees two bantamweight's on show, one a possible future champion against a former champion, who will win your votes?
First up is Star Wars own Daisy Ridley; her star has been rising rapidly in Hollywood, matching her rise in the FCBA and now the BBU, once under the fledgling Alpha Boxing stable, she is now under the Knockout boxing banner.
In the ring Daisy went seven unbeaten to start her career, then she went into a little slump after losing a shot at the FCBA title, since coming to the BBU though she is unbeaten back in her homeland and back to fighting the likes of Miranda Kerr, Emily VanCamp and Evangeline Lilly.
Her style is very much traditional; using her jab as her main weapon as she wears opponent's down with impressive accurate punches, alongside great footwork.
Her two biggest issues so far has been she has wilted under pressure in the past, alongside her not being the biggest puncher to help her out of trouble.
Now we go to Coronation Street to find Helen Flanagan, she has had in interesting career on TV and in the newspapers, where you can see her impressive body in a bikini.
Her career in the ring was stop/start at first, showing potential but never being able to make that step up when faced with elite competition, leading to some to begin to write her off as wasted talent.
That's till she won the BBU title from Lea Seydoux, she defended the title three times, in her career she has faced the likes of Michelle Keegan, Kat Dennings and Shay Mitchell.
She is a great inside fighter with impressive footwork, once she is bashing away at an opponent's body, it is hard to knock her back to the outside.
The big issue of course at bantamweight is her lack of height compared to most, meaning she has to work hard to get in close range to really be effective.
