Intro:
We are ready for some beach boxing action with Little Mix alumni Perrie Edwards looking to be the first one to defeat the former Love Island Winner Amber Gill here on Blackpool's world famous beach.
The ring posts are set into the sand itself, bleachers have been set up for paying spectators to sit at ringside. While the rest have to watch behind a metal fence. While the fighters have portable changing rooms set up nearby.
Before the contest both were asked why they signed up to fight. With Perrie on camera in a white dress saying "after losing to Miley Cyrus last month I need to get some wins under my belt. I am sick of losing fights I should win. What better statement to make then kicking the arse of Amber." As she looked zoned in.
Amber meanwhile wore a floral dress as she said with a smile "it's been three years since I last fought. I decided to focus on other projects but I have been training hard for my return. I want to be the world champion and that means I have to kick off things here and now"
Fighting time! Perrie steps on the beach first with her coach Kelly Rowland. Both are wearing white bikinis, though of course Perrie is wearing white gloves too, her hair is in a ponytail as she steps into the ring. Perrie tapping her gloves as she tries to get into the zone.
Out comes Amber with her coach following behind her. She is wearing a tiger striped bikini with orange gloves, hair braided as she stares hard into the ring. Getting inside it bouncing on her toes in to her corner looking keen to get back into the swing of things.
The referee brings the two women from the north east together for the final instructions. Not much love lost here judging by the stares between them. They do fist bump before they walk back to their corners. The bell rings to start 10 rounds of flyweight action.
Round 1:
Perrie looking slightly more the aggressive in the early going. Amber trying to get her rhthym going but at times getting caught flush as she isn't moving her head enough. While Perrie uses her reach nicely in the opening minute to keep Amber at a decent range for her.
Second minute does see Amber get inside more to test the torso of Perrie. She gets shoved back though and the singer lands a nice jab/straight into the face of Amber to knock her head back. Perrie soon holding the middle of the ring leading the younger woman around the perimeter.
Going into the dying moments of the round. Amber looking to open up more to fight back. Both women going toe to toe at times before Perrie steps back. Rifling a double jab into the face of her smaller foe to stop her charge dead. The bell soon rings with Perrie having to be happy with that. Amber showing some ring rust she'll need to get rid of.
Round 2:
Fighting on around the middle. Amber is showing some more head movement to step in to work the body of Perrie. Who responds by nudging back Amber before landing a few short hooks around her cheeks. Amber needing to duck down more to dodge and counter strike.
Perrie looks a little more worried then she did in the opening round. Landing more around the chest of her opponent to get the distance between them back to where she wants it. Drilling in more punches around the face of Amber after as she looks more relaxed.
Late in the round Amber deflects a jab to land an overhand right on the jaw of her rival. Perrie finds herself soon pinned to the ropes. Somewhat relieved when the bell rings to end the round, Perrie gets told off Kelly to not get caught so easily.
Round 3:
Arguably Edwards is up two rounds on the scorecard and yet it's Gill looking to be getting stronger now as she deflects a few shots from Perrie to land hers on the inside. Brawling a bit more in close as Perrie tries to answer the pressure coming her way with stiff shots as they dig their toes into the sand.
An uppercut knocks back the head of Perrie. She is soon driven into a corner, where her torso is being smacked around with hooks. Clinging onto Amber to slow her down, Perrie looking happy for the referee to step in to split them up. Getting back to her jab when she can to stop Amber charging at her again.
A straight catches Perrie on her lips before a left hook slams onto her jaw to twist her head. Perrie finding herself muscled into a neutral corner, where she covers up till the round ends. Perrie sighs as she sits on her stool. Amber meanwhile looks to be getting into gear now.
Round 4:
The tide definitely seems to be turning as Amber is getting inside to work more often with her upper body movement giving Perrie problems. A straight lands on the nose of the blonde to make her cry out. Amber showing no mercy to smack back Perrie around her body as she presses her into the ropes.
After a clinch is broken up. Perrie does manage to land a few jab/straight shots. Still she seems a little worried to really push on we her confidence looks low. That allows Gill to dodge and counter with a right going to the ribs of Perrie to make her grit her mouthpiece.
There's some redness forming on the body of Perrie as she is being beaten around her torso when Amber gets in close. The round soon comes to a close with Perrie getting wiped down by Kelly and told off.
Round 5:
Perrie is trying to get more aggressive but eats a hard right to the breadbasket that looks to wind her. AMBER WHACKS AWAY AT THE BODY AS PERRIE TRIES TO RETREAT. A NASTY RIGHT HOOK LANDS FLUSH ON THE BELLY BUTTON OF EDWARDS TO SEND HER DOWN TO ALL FOURS!
Over to the neutral corner walks Amber as she raises her arms into the air. 1....2....3....4... Perrie spits out her gumshield as she tries to suck in more air to her pained body. 5....6... She shakes her head staring at the sand. 7....8.....9....10 that's it for Perrie as she is counted out!
Winner Amber Gill KO Round 5
After:
Three years out and while it was a slow start, Amber looks as ruthless as ever. She turns to the nearest camera tapping her abs saying "I want to be the champion so keep your eyes on me Michelle!" Talking about the current BBU flyweight champion Michelle Keegan.
Meanwhile Perrie is given an ice pack to hold on her stomach as her gloves come off. She kneels shedding tears as this has been a bad month and a bit for her. First Miley Cyrus beat her and now Amber. Her confidence at the moment is buried deep underground with how bad it is.
Once she is able to Perrie leaves the ring with some help through the ropes. It'll be interesting if she can right the ship of her career going forwards. Kelly certainly hopes so as she tells Perrie they've been through worse in the past and come back stronger.
In the ring Amber gets her right hand raised to a cheer from her supporters. She bows to each side of the ring before walking out of it. She will be hoping this is just the start of her run towards a title fight. She will need to work hard to accomplish that feat but this was a solid enough start.
