Part 1: Mimi Perkins vs Michelle Keegan Only a week ago both Perkins sisters were signed to the Bondi Babes stable, when that happened the first person to "congratulate" them on that was Michelle, that led to this contest with the former BBU champion Keegan wanting to give the younger Perkin sibling a lesson.
To her credit Mimi showed no hints of fear for taking on someone so experienced at such a high level, her confidence may have been bolstered by seeing Michelle get a beating just a month ago at the heavy fists of our current flyweight champion Zara Holland.
If you are a big fan of Michelle then the opening moments of the round must have been worrying for you, Mimi was landing the crisper punches as Michelle didn't quite seem herself, only Mimi lowering her guard cockily allowed Michelle a foot hold into the round there after.
Round two saw Michelle get put down by a left hook, she scrambled to beat the count, it was clear something wasn't right as Mimi was simply walking her down, there didn't seem to be any real power or sting behind the punches of Keegan.
Who would go down in each round there after, in the fifth she was bleeding from her nose and looking a shell of herself, finally Mimi put her out of her misery with a vicious uppercut that sent Michelle's head back as she went tumbling to the canvas out cold.
This was a massive win for Mimi, just on name value she may have just gotten herself entrenched into the title picture, she looked a great mix of power with speed, peppering Michelle's face with some lovely combos.
The million dollar question is did she beat a good version of Keegan? Michelle didn't look anywhere like her usual self, maybe taking this fight too soon after taking the worse beating of her career, this ranks number two for her biggest arse kicking, so it could be too early to write about Mimi being a future ACB or BBU champion.

Part 2: Leah Perkins vs Georgia May Foote It has to be said of the two Perkins sisters; Leah seems to be the one getting the most attention, she was signed first we hear by the Bondi Babes hierarchy, she stepped into the arena on Monday on the undercard to her sister Mimi to take on Georgia May Foote.
At one time Georgia was seen as an elite prospect that would run the division, sadly she has never gotten close to fulfilling that as now frankly she has become a punch bag in many peoples eyes, struggling to get a win.
Her chances didn't look so good when these two met face to face, Leah was almost chomping at the bit to get started, Georgia looked nervous to me watching at ringside by the way she was looking anywhere but at Leah.
Once the fight begun Georgia was hurt early by some stiff body shots that landed flush, only a moment where it seemed like Leah hurt her left hand gave Georgia a chance to make it a fight, both going at it hard till a right on the jaw send Georgia down late in the opener.
Up got Georgia and she stepped out her corner for round two, even as Leah seemed to rarely use her left, she was battering the older fighter through her open guard, making her kiss the canvas with a hard left hook.
It was an easy nights work for Leah, who all we could get from the Bondi babes crew was that she had a bruise on her left hand from slamming on the top of Georgia's head, both siblings need to learn to focus in these type of fights as one moment of laxness and it could be game over before they achieve anything.
Georgia meanwhile even at just aged thirty looks finished now, at most she can take out the cougars that are at her level, even some like Louise Redknapp might push her at this stage, she looks simply broken down mentally as a fighter.

Part 3: Renee Herbert vs Sam Faiers The main event of Thursday's card saw the Herbert sisters take center stage, Renee got the main event spot with her better record of one win out of two fights compared to her sister Elisha's record of no wins, she got the punch bag Sam Faiers to take on.
Sam of course herself is part of a famous sibling duo with Billie, it was surprising in some ways that Elisha didn't take on Billie to make it a siblings vs siblings card, but considering neither Faiers sister has won a fight, it might not have sold well.
Even with her terrible record, Sam was claiming she was going to upset the odds, which I won't even quote the betting odds as they would make people laugh how far apart the betting companies had on this fight.
Well those odds were well founded as right away Sam seemed scared once the heavy artillery landed, Renee established control early on to push the older woman around the ring, Sam literally on the punch stats landed two punches in that opening round!
Round two wasn't much better for the "Only Way is Essex" star, Renee was simply bulldozing her back, even gloating at Faiers to try something as she was bullying the English lass around, Sam looked partly like she wanted to run.
Whether her coach talked her into continuing or her pride told her to, Sam did get up for round three, getting cut quickly by a left hook that caused a gash to form under her eye, Sam didn't last much longer as more hooks battered her down to the canvas.
Renee as we know now has former bantamweight champion Helen Flanagan to look forwards to, honestly of all the fights I know are happening this month, this is the most intriguing one for me, I mean is this a miscalculation by Renee? If Helen loses this fight then how big an upset is it? Plenty of answers will be found next week when they clash.
For Sam well it was another day at the BBU office for her, all I can maybe suggest now is trying JMD, maybe getting hit in her face is her kryptonite, I think she simply isn't good enough to fight myself, always happy to be proven wrong I will say.

Final Part: Elisha Herbert vs Jeanette Biedermann The opening bout for the Herbert sisters showcase card saw Elisha lead the charge for them, she hoped to turn it on against the German veteran Jeanette, could Biedermann upset the night for the Herbert's?
This was fought at a 115lbs catchweight as Jeanette had to move up slightly in weight, Elisha looked still bigger when they came nose to nose at the middle of the ring, Jeanette to her credit didn't look worried about the difference.
The difference in power was on show early as Jeanette was driven back by the aggressive Aussie, she worked up the middle with pounding punches that slammed back the head of Biedermann to firmly win the opener.
Jeanette tried to use her slickness to create openings, her punches clearly didn't carry enough weight behind them to dissuade her bigger opponent, Elisha was walking her down with hooks coming in as the Herbert sibling was growing in confidence.
By the third Jeanette was getting really hurt, blood running from her nose as she was being rocked back, put down by a left hook that landed square onto that nose, gamely the German beauty fought on, the fourth saw her go nighty night as a right hook put her on all fours, where she could have stayed all night long.
On paper it was a great win for Elisha but you wonder how she will do against a full fledged bantamweight, she has Sasha Parkinson next, someone who has really seen the wheels fall of her career, Elisha should sweep her aside, funny things can happen in a boxing ring.
Jeanette meanwhile does some credit for taking the fight, it maybe wasn't her best career move, especially when she has several nation rivals in German she could fight like Mandy Capristo and even a rematch with her friend Sandy Moelling maybe, hopefully she doesn't keep getting put in with bigger girls like this.
That's all the have time for folks, thank you so much to everyone who took the time to read these posts, we hope you enjoyed them, we will be back next Sunday morning with the next edition of the Real View.
