Melissa Satta vs Laura Barriales (Italy vs Spain) (13-5, 13 KO vs 2-5, 2 KO) Results: BBU; Story: VassagoBEFORE: The Sirens' decision to release Melissa Satta remains a head-scratcher for the ages but the Italian-American vows to prove her former employer wrong - even if she has to accept undercard fights like this one tonight. Meanwhile Laura Barriales has some unfinished business with Italian opponents dating back to her May 2016 BBU debut when she was stopped by Miriam Leone in six rounds. BBU TV's Denise van Outen wonders if Melissa can still hook up with a stable going forward or if she seeks big money free agent fights over in the FCBA instead. The Boston-born model remains tight-lipped over the matter and claims she only cares about knocking Laura's lights out for the time being. Melissa Satta wears a savoy blue bikini set & white gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a curled ponytail. Laura Barriales wears a red bikini set & yellow gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a sleek ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the welterweight division. Round 1: Melissa wastes no time to stamp her authority on this fight and begins to rack up quick jabs up the middle which forces Laura to respond in similar fashion but the Italian's execution remains superior and allows her to slump the fellow brunette into an early discomfort. Laura tries to swing her response over the top but gets clubbed on the mouth several times and has to yield real estate which enables Satta to pounce on her in confident fashion. Barriales just can't land that big punch and keeps dancing on her toes until she runs out of room and gets pinned onto the ropes where Melissa slices her high-guard and connects with some easy head shots to run away with the scorecards. Round 2: More feisty attacks from the Italian model keep the Spaniard at bay; Melissa sticks to her head-hunting ideas and has Laura bouncing around on her toes but the proper response just doesn't materialize whatsoever. Easy going for the local favorite who maintains the mid-range supremacy but some fans would like to see her even more aggressive. Laura rips a single-hand counter but keeps bouncing off the forearms and has to yield real estate to avoid more damage; Satta still stuffs her in the corner come the final minute and drops a rare body harpoon to cripple Barriales into spasms come the bell. Round 3: Melissa gets more aggressive and lands some cruel hooks on each temple before Laura stuns the Italian model with a brutal uppercut rally on the chin. Melissa got stuck on concrete legs for a moment and pays a lofty price as the Spanish model jumps into a hectic uppercut blast that catches both the rack and the chin in quick order. Satta fails to swing back from her heels and eats a wicked left hook on the nose that wobbles her into spasms and has Laura pounding away in the proverbial phone booth... she pummels the fellow brunette onto the ropes and slams another hooking double on the mouth before a left hook on the chin spins Satta against the turnbuckle. Ugh! Laura hauls in more harpoons on the exposed midsection and leaves Melissa gasping for air in visible discomfort at the bell. Round 4: Laura seeks more success and slugs her way upstairs to snap Melissa's head back early in the fourth. She drops the jabbing hammer down and the Italian model can only clinch her instead of powering back in counter-punching fashion. Ugh! Laura shows some core strenght as she shoves Satta back but lacks the accurate connection in mid-distance and Melissa finds some wheels to escape the Spanish wrath. Laura tries to swamp the fellow brunette into another point-blank range tussle but Satta hangs back and controls the distance with the high jab for remainder of the round. Barriales prefers not to charge at her in swarming fashion which she might regret later on as Melissa's stand-by mode probably won't last forever. Round 5: Melissa tries to regain her mojo and slugs it through the Spaniard's high-guard but Laura belts her to the body and triggers another heated exchange in the center of the ring. Laura pushes for the go-ahead knockdown and barks in her efforts as she slumps Satta on her heels before dropping a nasty bomb across the nasal ridge. Ugh! Melissa has been cut on impact but this wound only wakes her up into a hooking frenzy that suddenly has Laura's head snapping back as well. Uh-oh! Both models tear into each other hard before a clash of heads bumps Barriales onto the ropes where Satta RIPS a brutal hook on her breasts and leaves her slumped on the turnbuckle come the final stretch. Melissa steals the round with additional body assault and the referee has a hard time pulling her off the Spanish brunette once the clock expires. Round 6: The Italian crowd smells blood and Melissa uses more jug muggin' skills to neutralize the Spanish woman in the center of the ring before busting her in the solar plexus. Laura refuses to back off and tries to send a looping response over the top before another uppercut rally on the chest stuffs her into spasms; Melissa unloads a ruthless bomb from the left and smacks Barriales on the ear before a follow up shot tags the chin and SENDS LAURA CRASHING DOWN ON HER BACK!!! Big roar inside the arena as Satta struts back to her corner which forces the ref into a quick count procedure. Laura rolls onto all fours half-way through it and looks set to recover before suddenly being stuck on one knee at eight and then it's too late!!! She tries to get up but remains too dizzy and has to stay down on one knee as the ref shouts "TEN!!!" into her face!!! It's over!!! KO6 Melissa Satta!!! AFTER: Another solid victory for Melissa but she had to battle through some issues tonight and that performance doesn't earn her top artistic impression marks whatsoever. She looks frustrated about that nasal ridge gash and keeps shouting towards the camera if only to remind everyone she deserves more than some undercard opportunities like this. BBU TV's Denise van Outen believes the Boston-born model could buy herself a new career in beach boxing rules as well but Melissa wants real silverware recognition and won't settle for any participation trophies until she becomes a lineal BBU champion. Official Result: Melissa Satta def. Laura Barriales KO6.

Raffaella Modugno vs Abigail Clancy (Italy vs England) (4-1, 4 KO vs 4-17, 3 KO) Results: BBU; Story: VassagoBEFORE: Raffaella Modugno dropped off the welterweight title challengers pack after a tough loss to Alexina Graham at the Clash of Champions PPV back in April but she wants to find winning ways at the expense of Abgail Clancy tonight. The English WAG remains a crowd-favorite despite a woeful record but even Denise van Outen isn't convinced the Merseyside blonde has what it takes to avoid another defeat on her resume: "Look, we've seen Alesha Dixon come back after some ugly defeats but Abbey must be really desperate to make the trip to Italy. It's been years since she looked serviceable but I guess she really wants to prove she's more than a sexy looking punchbag! Well, let's see if I'm wrong here but I don't think so!" Raffaella Modugno wears a blue jeans crop top, black thong bottoms & red gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a curled ponytail. Abigail Clancy wears a red bikini set & white gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a sleek ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the welterweight division. Round 1: Raffaella gets the early jump on the fellow model but Abbey pays back the jabbing favor and both women engage in a furious head-hunting exchange in the center of the ring where the blonde actually stings her rival with a brutal hook on the nose and begins to stack up several punches into the brunette's face. Rafaella drops back from the point-blank range stance but trips over her feet and gets clocked on the rack as Clancy powers ahead with a dynamic drive and pounds the local favorite butt-in-ropes. Uh-oh! Raffaella bends one way and just makes the wrong decision as Abigail blows into her nose again and keeps thumping vicious leather than even makes coach Gail Kim speechless in the Kear's Kats corner! Abbey dishes out tremendous power rally and slumps the Italian on jelly knees before another wild hook catches the brunette on the jaw and leaves her yelping in pain at the bell. Huh! Talk about going totally off-script here! Round 2: Abbey rides the head-hunting hot hand and jumps straight into Raffaella's path as she seeks more success. She tags the Italian on the jaw but misses with the follow up and bends forward deep enough Modugno smokes her on the chin herself. Another looping shot catches the ear and spins the Scouser to the side before Raffaella beats her for an overhand piledriver that tears a small gash around the right brow ridge. Abbey slumps on her heels and gets pounded back to the ropes in a hurry thereafter. Raffaella shouts some verbal abuse in her native language and settles down in thumping the blonde's midsection once she traps her on the ropes during the final minute. Clancy tries to break free but succumbs to those body shots and clinches Modugno into safety instead. Round 3: Abigal still thinks she can repeat those opening round heroics but bounces off the brunette's high guard early in the third and gets blasted up the middle shortly afterwards as Raffaella steers some vicious leather into her face. Clancy's defense was always a problem and she doesn't move fast enough to avoid getting whacked during a spirited Italian rally here. Modugno finds her groove and works over the top to snap the blonde ponytail around before she tackles Abbey onto the ropes and RIPS into her exposed midriff again. Ugh! Abbey slumps into loud spasms and tries to clinch the fellow model instead of punching right back at her... bad idea... Raffaella thumps Abigail's breadbasket into visible pink-ish patches and hauls in a late uppercut on the jaw that whips the Scouser on top of the ropes with eyes closed. Round 4: Raffaella sprints out of her corner and connects with more head shots as Abigail tries to deke away from danger but just leaks too many of those efforts punish her regardless. She becomes glued to the spot after a while and bends forward when Modugno cracks an uppercut rally on the chest. Blonde seeks another clinch but Raffaella shoves her away and lands a screamer on the jaw moments later. Abigail spins to the side and goes numb upon impact before the fiery Italian LIFTS HER OFF THE CANVAS with another vicious uppercut on the chin!!! DOWN GOES CLANCY!!! The English WAG collapses in a heap with her arms above her head and that should do it!!! The count is slow but it doesn't matter anymore! KO4 Raffaella Modugno!!! AFTER: The victorious model plants her foot on the fallen blonde's hip and poses for the cameras as she's back on the winning track indeed. She got surprised by Abbey's very aggressive start but properly exposed her biggest weakness quickly enough to celebrate her fifth career victory in style! Even Gail Kim doesn't look extremely upset in the Kats corner as she acknowledges Abigail came here to collect appearance fee and the whole crew is off to some fancy Italian beaches for the weekend anyway. Official Result: Raffaella Modugno def. Abigail Clancy KO4.

Italian Lightweight Title Ch Elisabetta Canalis vs Federica Nargi (BBU Independent vs Glamour Boxing Academy) (7-11, 6 KO vs 6-5, 5 KO) Results: BBU; Story: VassagoBEFORE: It's time for the Main Event and potential passing of the torch as Federica Nargi wants to strip Elisabetta Canalis off the Italian Lightweight title. Both these models enjoyed a celebrity break through as 'velines' on Striscia la Notizia TV show several years ago and they've truly come a long way since. Federica just signed a contract with the Glamour Boxing Academy and is viewed as a real contender for BBU lineal title; she couldn't beat Miranda Kerr back in December but several pundits believe she will earn another opportunity at the straps before too long if she keeps winning high-profile bouts. Meanwhile Elisabetta has struggled for big wins lately and might be demoted to journeywoman status if she loses the national title here in Rome tonight. Elisabetta Canalis wears a blue bikini set & silver gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a curled ponytail. Federica Nargi wears a black bikini set & red gloves. Long black hair tied in a sleek ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the lightweight division. Round 1: Elisabetta gets the early jump on the fellow brunette and laces her up the middle with some crisp strikes before Federica responds over the top in slugging manner which leads into a hectic back & forth display much to the crowd's delight. Elisabetta still lands a nasty hook on the nose that wobbles the challenger to the side and manages to stick another jabbing rally into her face that finally forces Nargi to spin out of the phone booth stance. Elisabetta tries to follow through with more head shots but can't quite match the younger brunette's mobility - however she keeps her in retrat mode and threatens to flick more piercing shots as the opening round descends into a tactical slow-burner. Federica dismisses the older model as "weak puncher" during the break but she'll have to show some promise herself or else Canalis will gain more confidence. Round 2: Federica gets more aggressive as both women exchange another head-hunting rally before the younger model blasts her opponent on the nose and sticks immediate follow up on the jaw. Elisabetta gets stuck on her heels and struggles to loop her response on target as Nargi blows her in the mouth with more venom and pounds her onto the ropes in quick order! Huh! Federica feels the support of the Roman crowd and secures the slugging supremacy as she whacks Canalis up the middle and drops her behind a desperate earmuff before the older model can lock a clinching stalemate. It's still not enough to shut Nargi down as she plugs the older brunette in the navel and digs an elbow in the chest to shake Elisabetta off before landing a haymaker bomb on the nose. Ugh! Canalis bends to the side with a whimper and gets laced with more head shots as Federica forges ahead and leaves the reigning champion scowling in disarray at the bell. Round 3: Elisabetta gets up early and tries to smoke Federica with more aggressive hooks but she bounces off her forearms too often and struggles to embrace a steady overhand response that gradually backs her onto the ropes during the opening minute. Federica maintains the head-hunting assault and has Canalis dancing around in pure avoidance down the stretch when the younger model's punches begin to take it's toll. Elisabetta gets whacked repeatedly from both flanks and prefers to hang back in mid-distance come the final minute. She looks rather lost over the inability to work Nargi over in close range and has to come up with a plan soon or else the younger 'veline' really begins to dominate the action. Round 4: Federica blitzes the older brunette up the middle and secures another ruthless connection with Elisabetta's face which finally results in some visible lumps as Canalis stops majority of the fellow model's punches with her face! Federica owns the superior mobility already and now she traps Elisabetta in the center of the ring and plugs more leather into her face before driving a rare combo up her gut as well. Elisabetta has to clinch the fellow veline but gets thumped onto the ropes where Nargi barges her in the chest and works with half-uppercut drive to punch the Italian champion into a standstill. Ugh! Canalis slumps into loud spasms and gets scythed across the mouth as Federica continues to land all the power punches; she leaves Canalis shaking her head at the bell while holding a 39-37 lead on the cards. Round 5: Elisabetta gets more desperate as she tries to outslug the younger veline in close range but the slugging brawl blows up in her face when Federica cuts her across the nasal ridge and hammers a left hook on the ear that folds the Sardinia native forward. Ugh! Federica is quick to react and cracks an uppercut double on the chin that sends Canalis flying onto the ropes where she sinks underneath a brutal jabbing rally that has Nargi firmly on top! The younger model cranks up the punching volume and dissects Elisabetta's guard before thumping her on the nose often enough she renders her numb. Uh-oh!!! Elisabetta's guard collapses by her side and Federica SMOKES her with a brutal right hook on the mouth that bellows the older brunette's eyes into her brains as she CRASHES FACE-FIRST at Nargi's feet in ugly train wreck fashion moments later!!! Huh! That was a big one and Elisabetta remains face down during the count to indicate she simply broke down under pressure to rise no more. Cue in those early celebrations in the GBA corner as this one is over!!! NINE... TEN... YER OUT!!! KO5 and the NEW Italian Lightweight champion - Federica Nargi!!! AFTER: We have a new Queen in town and Federica jumps on top of the ropes to salute her home fans as she takes the national title in some style! She truly demolished Elisabetta Canalis after a slow start and left zero questions over her elite aspirations according to most pundits. Watch out for this veline to make some noise when it comes to BBU lineal title sooner rather than later again! Italy made a great start to the Euro 2020 tournament and Federica's partner is a former footballer as well so the party atmosphere is set to continue for few days if not weeks; the new champion is quick to pose for a selfie galore and she's truly earned her moment in the sun! The Italian LW title card concludes with three wins for the local favorites so the VIP afterparty will be one loud experience alright! Official Result: Federica Nargi def. Ch Elisabetta Canalis KO5.
