Part 1: Ivana Knoll vs Elisabetta Gregoraci review As the Euros men's football tournament comes to an end tonight with either Spain winning another major tournament or England singing it's coming home. The BBU has celebrated the tournament with several bouts between fighters whose countries met in the tournament.
On Friday it was the turn of Croatia's Ivana Knoll against Italy's Elisabetta Gregoraci for bragging rights. Neither woman will probably be bragging about their football team at this minute. Still they could give their country something to cheer by winning their bout.
It was Elisabetta who got off the starting blocks the faster. Landing several good clean shots through the gloves of Ivana to her face. Ivana looked a little hesitant in the opener as Elisabetta pushed a pace she probably didn't expect.
Still Ivana was able to build into the fight with her main tool being body shots. Elisabetta had a good second round but it was clear Ivana was the one getting stronger. More punches worked back the Italian around the outside part of the ring till the fourth round.
Where finally a brutal right hook over the top shut down Elisabetta. Who hit the canvas hard and was out for the count. Giving Ivana another solid victory in what has been a good early career for someone who feels like a champion in waiting if she can keep evolving and not rest on her early success.
On the opposite side of this equation. Elisabetta isn't getting younger shall we say. Still has the physical frame and power to cause at least a headache or two for a lot of women. Problem for her was once she let Ivana in she couldn't keep her out.

Part 2: Victoria Pfeiffer Vs Lily-Rose Depp review Rookie Victoria Pfeiffer got her first taste of the ring as the streamer took on actress Lily-Rose Depp. Lily-Rose has had an interesting career, one where she has plenty of losses but has some good wins to show she can be dangerous on any given day.
They stepped into the ring on a beach to settle their differences. Victoria got a bit of a rough start from her opponent. With Lily-Rose stabbing shots square into her face to knock back the head of Pfeiffer. Lily-Rose looked to have some confidence as she took the opening two rounds in most people's eyes.
Afterwards though Lily-Rose was being caught out by combos. Victoria was rolling as she drove her foe around the perimeter of the ring. Lily-Rose did offer some resistance but was smacked back to the outside. Leading to her being knocked out in the fifth round to give Victoria her debut victory.
Talent wise, Victoria looks in great physical shape. Confidence might be a little issue as Victoria started slowly due to looking tense. Once the punches started to flow she did look like she could prove dangerous to some opponents. Whether that turns into someone who could challenge for titles is a totally different matter. We reserve judgement on that front.

Part 3: Ela Kawalec Vs Barbara Palvin review Two gorgeous models duke it out to start this week off as Barbara Palvin crossed over to the BBU to take on Else Kawalec. Who has a great record in the BBU with only one loss in twelve bouts going into their contest.
Before a punch had been thrown there was plenty of jibes slung at each other. Neither could be accused of lacking pride in their skills. Once in the ring together they locked eyes in a tense stare before going for each other with vigor at the bell.
Overconfidence seemed to strike both women in the opening two rounds. Barbara taking advantage of her opponents lax guard to bash her back in round one. The second round saw Barbara be punished for her swings as Ela countered her to the delight of her fans.
First blood went to Palvin as she set down her opponent on her backside with a hard right hook. Ela looked shocked but did beat the count, with Barbara taking the next round too. It looked like Barbara's debut would be a fruitful one.
Problem for Palvin was she would walk into a nasty uppercut and be sent onto her backside in the fifth. Ela seemed to have found how to hurt her rival as she landed several counter blows. Putting down Barbara again in the sixth and ending it in the seventh as Barbara's resistance couldn't hold off a dominant display by the Polish fighter.
What a battle of wills the bout was. Barbara had flashes of brilliance but left herself too open at times, leading to her being punished by hard counter shots that would prove her downfall. Ela needs to not be so lax early in fights as a harder hotter would have layed her out in the early going, still she looked good when on top.

Part 4: Amandla Stenberg Vs Jena Frumes review To sell the Acolyte TV show Disney had set up a bout for their star Amandla Stenberg. In the opposite corner was actress and influencer Jena Frumes. Neither exactly seemed to care for the other in their pre-fight speeches.
While Jena had no wins going into the bout. She started the bout the better as Amandla looked a little nervous. Jena muscling around at moments her younger foe. After two rounds Amandla had to get a pep talk to get herself in the right frame of mind.
Afterwards Amandla did show what she brings to the party with some nice movement and straight shots into the face of her foe. Jena looked a little caught off guard before they fought more evenly around the ring with real energy.
Round after round went by with both women giving their all. It got to the eighth round before a nasty right hook to the temple shook up Amandla. Another right sent her down to the canvas with Amandla not being able to stand up to beat the count as her legs were like jelly.
This was an important moment for Jena as she finally broke her duck in the ring. Physically she is very impressive and arguably was unlucky not to win her first two contests. So on that not it isn't a horrible loss for Stenberg. Amandla showed nice skills and maybe if she builds her confidence in the ring she might get wins. Of course as Jena showed sometimes you have to go through pain before you can get that first victory.
That's all we have time for folks. Thank you to everyone who took the time to read these posts. To Caspian and Vassago for writing the bouts they posted over the past fortnight. Hopefully we will be back next Sunday for the next edition of the Real View.
