Emma Rigby vs Vera Brezhneva (England vs Ukraine) (9-14, 9 KO vs 12-4, 12 KO) Results: BBU; Story: VassagoBEFORE: Several BBU pundits believe Emma Rigby has all it takes to become a divisional contender but she never quite found the success to justify the upside. On the other hand Vera Brezhneva enjoyed a very successful start to her boxing career and remains a top prospect despite a couple of tough losses to Dorota Rabczewska and Catalina Otalvaro recently. BBU TV's Denise van Outen reckons age might have caught up with the Ukrainian singer but she needs a big victory soon or else she drops out of the divisional title contention for good. Emma Rigby wears a light blue bikini set & silver gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a braid. Vera Brezhneva wears a yellow bikini set & blue gloves. Long blonde hair loose & straight. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the bantamweight division. Round 1: Vera blasts immediate jabbing combo into the fellow blonde's face and keeps working upstairs until Emma is forced to back off from the initial tangle but the older woman still snaps her head back repeatedly and assumes full control of the close range action. Emma tries to respond from behind the guard but bounces off the singer's forearms and eats a scything cross on the mouth that slumps her into spasms much quicker than anyone inside the Cardiff Arena anticipated. Vera tees off with the head-hunting blast and pounds Rigby butt-in-ropes before clattering into her breadbasket when the English babe applies an earmuff cover. That idea doesn't work for Emma at all as she soaks up more punishment downstairs and has to clinch Brezhneva late in order to stop the charge. Round 2: More slugging attacks from the older blonde who maintains the head-hunting pursuit and forces Emma to respond in similar fashion. This leads into a hectic dispute in the center of the ring which raises the crowd's ovations even when Vera eventually overwhelms the Brit and knocks her head back again. Emma tries to hang on in the vicious exchange but gets cut below the left eye and yields real estate come the second minute as Brezhneva gets vocal and pummels the fellow blonde onto the ropes. Emma lands a couple of single shots into her face but the singer owns the production by the numbers and stuns Rigby into more spasms when she nails her on both temples and drills her in the guts right at the bell as well. Ugh! Emma shakes her head in frustration and Denise van Outen is worried the singer's slugging drill is simply too much for the Merseyside stunner tonight! Round 3: Vera clatters into Emma's jugs and catches her off guard with the body attack that dominates the opening minute. Emma trips over her feet as she tries to shove the older blonde back and wobbles forward just as Brezhneva NAILS her with an uppercut double on the chin. Uh-oh!! DOWN GOES RIGBY!!! The English babe crashes down on her knees and has to soak up the standard eight count as she looks rattled here alright! Vera shouts back at her and rolls out more jabbing haze when the fight is resumed alas she can't throttle Emma over during a high-octane pursuit and gets wrestled back onto the ropes as Rigby tries to avoid a looming disaster in desperate fashion. She plugs the fellow blonde in the guts but still gets outworked in the corner and soaks up more belting menace late as Brezhneva pounds away in furious fashion and seems upset Emma is still standing upright at the bell. Round 4: Vera launches another hectic attack up the middle and clips Emma's jugs from the south but then eats a rare overhand blast on the nose which allows the younger blonde to stick her foot in the door during another close range tangle. This time Rigby works around the singer's slugging pressure and lands an uppercut series on the chin before drilling Brezhneva in the solar plexus as well. The Ukrainian woman slumps to her heels as Emma powers ahead with some jugs shots herself; she outworks her in the proverbial phone booth before drilling her on the liver area and it's Vera who seeks a clinching respite thereafter as Emma shoves her onto the turnbuckle where she cleans out more midriff to finally get on the boards. Round 5: Emma ducks underneath Vera's head-hunting charge and works her to the body instead which glues the singer to the spot as the crowd gets behind the Scouser's recovery effort. Emma lands an stray elbow in the chest as well that drops Vera off her mark even further before a booming right hand clatters into the older blonde's mouth and spins her to the side amid quiet yelps. Emma races up the middle and plugs the reeling foe in the solar plexus which sends Vera sliding onto the ropes where she gets stunned by the initial put away and has Rigby snapping her head back & forth in a furious charge until another clinch stalls the action. However Emma still bangs a couple of extra hits in the liver area and leaves Brezhneva gasping for air at the bell. Round 6: Vera tries to drop the slugging hammer on the Brit but bounces off the top of her forehead and wobbles into a crippling uppercut blast that spins her sideways upon impact. Uh-oh!!! Vera slumps to the side just as Emma turns it from the hip to rifle a crushing homer on the mouth that SENDS THE GUMSHIELD FLYING OUT!!! Brezhneva's eyes bellow out to the back of her head and she CRASHES FACE-DOWN at Emma's feet moments later!!! How about that one, folks? The Cardiff audience errupts in joy as Emma blows them a kiss while the ref issues a merciless count.. but Vera has been smoked out of the orbit and remains motionless so it's eventually waved off at six since it's obvious she cannot make it anymore. KO6 Emma Rigby in come-from-behind fashion!!! AFTER: Huge win for the Merseyside blonde who plants her foot on Vera's back and flexes her biceps in confident fashion. She's still a couple of these highlight KOs removed from being considered a serious contender but Denise van Outen would love to see Emma run riot on some of these girls soon! And she's got enough JMD value to maybe challenge Charlotte Church for the 'other' title the Welsh fighter currently holds! Being a BBU crowd favorite helps to bypass some of the road blocks and it's rather obvious Emma is right up there on the glamour charts. She recognizes her potential as well since she catches up with Dorota Rabczewska backstage and passes over a special message to Charlotte according to unnamed witnesses from the locker room. Watch this space! Official Result: Emma Rigby def. Vera Brezhneva KO6.

Dorota Rabczewska vs Sara Carbonero (Poland vs Spain) (20-7, 20 KO vs 5-1, 5 KO) Results: BBU; Story: VassagoBEFORE: This is a preview of the upcoming Euro 2020 group stage clash between Poland and Spain that will take place in Seville on June 19th. Both Dorota Rabczewska and Sara Carbonero qualify as WAGs which adds to the reality factor however former BBU champion Doda is viewed as favorite in the boxing ring - unlike Polish national team on the football pitch! Then again Sara owns a 5-1 record and her only loss is to lightweight speciallist Lily Aldridge so the Spanish TV reporter is hardly a genuine underdog indeed. She vows to stun the former champion tonight and earn herself a shot at the straps currently held by Doda's stablemate Charlotte Church. Rabczewska refuses to accept the idea she's send in to take care of Charlotte's dirty laundry just like that: "Look, I'm still the best Lioness bantamweight around! No offense to Jessica Schwarz and her Hall of Fame medals. And don't get me started on Charlotte who should stick to JMD action only! Grr... just watch the gym tapes and count how many times I send Charlie down on her ass! That was fun!" (giggles). Dorota Rabczewska wears a red bikini set & white gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a half-up ponytail. Sara Carbonero wears a white bikini set with orange trim & orange gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a curled ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the bantamweight division. Round 1: Sara fires immediate jabbing drive upstairs and splits Doda's high guard to knock her on both cheeks before looping a stunner on the ear moments later. The Polish singer is usually the one running her fights from the front so it takes a while before she finds a response but Sara neutralizes that with an uppercut blast on the jugs and begins to maul the blonde's boobs once she locks her in the proverbial phone booth. Dorota struggles to flex her elbows as she gets bundled over to the ropes where the brunette keeps plugging her in the hole in high-octane fashion. Ugh! Maybe Spain is the boxing favorite as well as Carbonero shuts the former champion down wholesale and keeps beating her punch for punch until she has Rabczewska fuming in anger when one of the uppercuts almost spills the Pole's left breast into the open in the closing seconds. Huh! More of that, please! Round 2: Doda storms out of her corner to make up for that terrible opening round and clatters into Sara's face with her initial swing but the brunette doesn't back off upon impact and loops immediate response over the top which leads into a hectic head-hunting blast thereafter. Both girls go all-in and try to knock each other's heads off and this is where Doda really feels at home but she just can't smack Sara out of her comfort zone and wobbles into an uppercut series come the final minute. Sara drives in the better punches and has the singer dancing around on her toes for remainder of the round. She flicks another booming shot on the rack and pins the blonde onto the turnbuckle late but shoots over her head when trying to put the icing on the cake. Nevermind, it's 20-18 Carbonero after two. Round 3: Sara tries to stay in the slugging lane but Dorota digs deep to outwork her in the phone booth and carries more juice as both women trade vicious blows in the center of the ring. The Polish singer bangs in the best combo to connect with the reporter's jaw and spins her to the side before lashing out from both flanks to smack leather all over Carbonero's face! The brunette has to yield real estate but still gets pummelled back to the ropes where she embraces the Polish heat in style... until she eats a thunderous left hook on the nose to wobble into loud spasms. Uh-oh! Rabczewska spikes her up the middle and keeps raining punches to inflict visible swelling around the lips before another booming hook tears a small gash under the left eye and sinks the Spanish woman into even louder yelps at the bell. Round 4: Dorota smells blood and comes hassling down into the brunette's face early in the fourth. The swarming attacks are maybe one-dimensional but they force Carbonero into a hectic retreat when the blonde laces her up on both cheeks again. Doda almost gets carried away by the sudden shift of power and loses her precision but she still keeps Sara dancing around on her toes in pure avoidance during the second minute. She finally clatters into her flesh again and packs more jabs on target to leave the Spanish woman hugging the ropes. Sara can't fire back hard enough to halt the blonde's recovery and eats another wild hook on the mouth right at the bell. Round 5: Rabczewska keeps coming forward but doesn't land enough big shots to scare the brunette off and gets dragged into a gut-checking drive as some Spanish flags begin to fly inside the Cardiff Arena. Doda aims high while Sara goes low with a better revenue as she nails the singer on the solar plexus and keeps dropping harpoons to regain the superior stance. She shoves Dorota back and ducks underneath a swinging reply before blowing into the Pole's rack with a heavy uppercut combo. Ugh! Doda winces in pain upon impact and wobbles forward to meet a brutal uppercut on the jaw that sends her flying onto the ropes in no time... she bounces off them to meet instant punishment as Carbonero tees off and hammers a left cross on the brow ridge THAT FLOORS THE SINGER ON THE SPOT!!! Uh-oh!! Sara shouts back at the fallen rival as Doda ends up on all fours and even the delayed count doesn't really help her a lot... she makes a slowish recovery at eight and looks genuinely rattled by the experience while Sara jumps in all guns blazing and NAILS the ailing blonde on each temple before busting her in the solar plexus again. Dorota gets pounded back to the ropes where she slumps into loud spasms while Sara keeps thumping her up the middle to the point the Pole's arms go numb and she sinks into a blubbering wreck demise. Uh-oh! You know what that means! REF STEPS IN AND PULLS THE SPANISH VIXEN OFF HER PREY!!! Only nine seconds left on the clock in the fifth but Doda just couldn't hang on to live another round! TKO5 Sara Carbonero!!! AFTER: This should be called a genuine upset if only due to Sara's light schedule. Give her 20+ fights and she'd be Top Five in the division without a shadow of a doubt. Even Denise van Outen has to concede this performance was extremely impressive and Sara's contender status must be taken seriously from this point onwards! Spain throttles Poland inside the boxing ring and we must assume they follow it up on the football pitch next week as well. Dorota is too dazed to argue the stoppage in her usual bitchy manner and just stares down the cheering Spanish entourage with a hollow look in her eyes. You just don't see that happen with this former champion everyday, folks! Official Result: Sara Carbonero def. Dorota Rabczewska TKO5.

Una Healy vs Sophia Thomalla (Double A Boxing vs Black Eagle Boxing) (26-20, 20 KO vs 5-0, 5 KO) Results: BBU; Story: VassagoBEFORE: Former champion Una Healy remains the biggest draw of the night as even BBU TV's Denise van Outen calls her the "hottest babe" of the bunch which explains why she got the nod over fellow Irish stunner Maura Higgins when it comes to Sophia Thomalla's path to divisional title picture: "I know Maura should be in the conversation for the best Irish fighter right now but Una is one name that looks awesome on anyone's resume! Beat her and you're right there! No offense to Sara Carbonero and her big victory tonight but me taking Una to the cleaners will be BIGGER!", Sophia speaks a confident tone ahead of the Main Event and she might actually be right! Just don't tell Healy about it: "I need to restore some respect here! Just because The Saturdays are done it doesn't mean I'm done! Sophia needs to realize her kickboxing skills ain't that impressive to look at Charlotte Church over my damn shoulder! Not so fast, bytch!", Una vows to halt the German's hype train tonight but she'll have her work cut out regardless if she's the fan favorite or not! She refuses to touch the blonde's gloves during the introductions which raises the staredown intensity by default! Una Healy wears a green bikini set & white gloves. Long red hair tied in a half-up ponytail. Sophia Thomalla wears a black bikini set & red gloves. Long dark blonde hair tied in a braid. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the bantamweight division. Round 1: Una flies in with the early punches and gets aggressive when she realizes Sophia doesn't intend to smoke her in slugging fashion straight away. The German actress prefers to weather the initial Irish storm and displays an excellent defense to smother all those efforts before looping a clear response over the top that finds Una's pretty face. The former champion ignores the juice and switches her targets; she goes downstaits to punish the blonde's midsection and this is only when Sophia kicks into a higher gear to blast Una up the middle regardless. Both women engage in a spirited tussle in the center of the ring - Una throws more punches but lacks connection and eats a straight-forward response from Thomalla who gradually outworks her come the final minute. The German woman still doesn't seem to be running on full speed but that's enough to match Healy's execution for the time being. Round 2: Una wins the initial tangle - if only by landing three shots into Sophia's face before things take a sudden U-turn when the German fires a left/right combo into the redhead's boobs. Una chokes up on the spot and doesn't react when the blonde bangs her on the solar plexus moments later... another body shot then wobbles the former champion onto the ropes and she has to spin out of the incoming blast but Thomalla still seems to be holding back a lot here... she hassles Healy to the opposite corner where the Irish lass gets aggressive again but there's no way through the blonde's high guard so the older babe keeps bouncing off a stubborn German wall before Sophia delivers a sky hook on the ear to sink Una into quiet spasms at the bell. Round 3: Sophia puts the hammer down and she plucks her mitts into the redhead's chest to assume immediate control of the close range drill. Una scythes her across the mouth with the initial hook but shoots over her shoulder with the follow up and gets blasted to the body again as Sophia glues her mitts into the singer's cleavage. Uh-oh! Una has seen it all in BBU action... well, almost and she gets crippled by the shear power supply of the German contender. Sophia lets it rip and carries from Una's boobs into her chin which triggers the alarm bells in the Double A corner. Una has enough footwork poise to escape the heat at the last second but spends the remainder of the round in hectic retreat which only adds to the German's advantage. Sophia taunts the reeling redhead after the bell and Una tells her to beat it but actions speak louder than words so... Round 4: ...it's no surprise when Thomalla lights up the joint early in the fourth when she muscles past Healy's high guard and begins to bang heavy shots into her face! Una slumps onto her heels and she can't escape the jam this time as her counter-punching response bounces off the blonde's shoulders before a nifty left hook tears a small gash under her eye just shy of the one-minute mark. Ugh! Una cries out when she gets her own mitts shoved into her face as Sophia clobbers her onto the ropes where she adds more swarming juice to destroy the Irish guard. Uh-oh on the double. Sophia beats Una for the left hook swing and whacks her on the ear before a right hook on the mouth DROPS THE SINGER FOR THE COUNT!!! Una's legs simply give way and she crumbles down in the corner but she's too brave to check out of this fight in such a lousy fashion. She gets up at seven and tells the ref to move out of the way... okay, be my guest! Sophia winks back at coach Gina Wild and storms back at the somewhat desperate Irishwoman who has to find that one haymaker for the ages now... and she doesn't... Thomalla brutally interrupts her charge when she bangs a left/right combo on the nose and barges into her boobs with a left hand as well. Una gets stopped in her tracks and bellows out into more spasms but those are cut short few seconds later when the German SMOKES the ailing singer with a jaw-shattering uppercut. Ugh! UNA CRASHES DOWN FLAT ON HER BACK in dead meat fashion and that's all she wrote, folks! Brutal knockout ends the Irishwoman's night so the ref doesn't even bother with the count. KO4 Sophia Thomalla!!! AFTER: Rammstein's "Sonne" bangs through the speakers and it's impossible to argue that Sophia is the new sun on the BBU bantamweight sky. Denise van Outen begins to wonder if Charlotte Church doesn't actually vacat the straps in order to avoid this power-punching behemoth and maybe, just maybe Dorota Rabczewska is the last road block that stops Thomalla from facing the Welsh singer anytime soon. Oh wait, Doda just got stopped by Sara Carbonero so the Lionesses are really out of ammo... or maybe not? The ancient Polish-German rivalry always brings up the best from each side and coach Mel B. passes over the big news from the front office during the VIP afterparty - if Sophia can defeat Dorota next month she will be granted the bantamweight title shot pending Charlotte still owns it (which leads into more speculation as to what Charlotte's plans really are). Official Result: Sophia Thomalla def. Una Healy KO4.

Great card as always from you Sophia again with an amazing performance! Una probably wishes she hadn't pissed off Sophia with the lack of respect
