Tom Hilton: Hello ladies and gentlemen, we have one packed show like last weeks episode so I have to say a big thank you to the amazing talent we have in the BBU before I start.
Well I want to start with Jennifer Hawkins against Micaela Schaefer, a bout that possibly has big ramifications for our lightweight title.
Then since I didn't have time for the Olympic bouts held for the BBU last week, I'll be discussing two bouts from the past fortnight.
I'd like to say congratulations to Nicola Adams on being the best once again by winning gold in Rio this time.
But I'll be discussing Victoria Pendleton against Ivet Lalova from August the 10th.
While the third part of the show will be about this past weeks bout between long jumpers Darya Klishina and Ivana Spanovic.
The final part of the show will be discussing our girls in America for next weeks FCBA PPV on Friday.
I hope everyone is having a crack weekend and we can see who we can argue with this week as we usually annoy some good looker.

Part 1:Jennifer Hawkins vs Micaela Schaefer Well Jennifer Hawkins is going into the biggest fight of her life in several weeks as she fly's over to Japan to fight Sayuki Matsumoto, in what is likely to be a number one contenders bout to "LA Grande Malika" our lightweight champion.
To warm up for said showdown, she fought Micaela Schaefer in Australia a week before the biggest ACB/BBU crossover PPV of the year.
Let's be clear, Micaela's greatest performance in a ring was fighting Indira Weis on Promiboxin in Germany, since then her career has been a joke.
So I don't know how much a tune up as Micaela in boxing terms can't be classed as a "live body" as she hasn't the movement Jennifer's future opponent will have in her locker.
For the most part it was an ass kicking on Micaela's pert behind and that was extended due to Hawkins holding back, which shows you her talent.
Micaela will continue to find work as she has that personality that says "nude wrestling in jello anyone?" Which I can't say I dislike.
Jennifer won't be playing around in a few weeks as Sayuki will not be some sparring partner, this could honestly be the bout of the year in this BBU if both come with their A games.
Of course we'd also like to hear what plans Malika Menard has, will she take a voluntary defence before finding out who she will most likely have to fight in future?
Either way, we have three lightweight warriors who are from different countries and backgrounds and any could be the champion.
So keep watch on Development of that news story on this show as we hopefully get the scoops.

Part 2:Ivet Lalova vs Victoria Pendleton I didn't have time last week to pick a bout out for last weeks show from this special Olympic event for the BBU that saw many amazing athletes from different sports try something new.
I picked this bout since cycling as usual has been the sport to hold up the British medal table since you can win 6 gold medals at the cycling version of NASCAR (or going in circles)
If you can't guess I'm not much of a fan but I respect the athletes and they are super fit so it was interesting to see Pendleton, who is a legend in the Velodrome and is happy to show her lighter side outside of the place while trying her hand at being a jockey.
Ivet is a runner from Bulgaria and wow does she look the business, that's a direct quote from my colleague here Michelle Joy Phelps after being able to meet both women both the showdown.
But it was Victoria who dominated from start to finish in one hell of a beat down, forcing the stoppage in the fourth round.
Pendleton even helped her opponent to her stool and both respectfully talked after the fight.
Victoria certainly has a future in the ring or commentary as she would prove earlier this week but I may suggest to her to apologise to our Michelle.
She wasn't happy to hear Victoria's comments since Michelle had to get back to do an urgent interview with Danielle Sharp.
So it was my fault Michelle was back in the U.K but she has been storming around the offices so either we stopped a catfight on the beaches of Rio or we've caused a future one unless both women can talk it out in a nice calm manner.

Part 3: Darya Klishina vs Ivana Spanovic Two beautiful long jumpers in Rio doing battle may not be the first set of fighters you'd think of for more then explosive leg power.
While that proved to be true in some respects as they moved quickly around the ring, they also showed they could punch.
Seeing a Russian athlete at the Rio Olympics has certainly been interesting, so it's nice to see one who has shown she is clean and can be a role model in Darya.
Problem is she needs to work on cardio, in fact Ivana does as well since that's the weakness of your long jumper moving into boxing, they do so many jumps over a certain distances but it's explosive power, not an event with a lot of muscular endurance needed.
Both fighters were giving their all and that has to be praised as they would keep going for each other round after round to the delight of the crowd and myself.
Ivana won in the 7th round as Darya; who'd been complaining of chest pains moments before kept going but she wasn't fit enough to keep going and was knocked down and counted out.
It was nice to see both women show respect for each other at the end, some BBU girls could learn from these Olympians what sportsmanship looks like.
If either decides to try boxing again, they'll have to hit the gym for cardio since that is what their Achilles heel is at this level.

Final part: BBU girls at an FCBA beach Well this coming week is going to be massive in the world of celebrity boxing, the ACB will be having a big PPV event here in the BBU and the FCBA is having a beach boxing PPV.
As always our girls will be making the trip over the pond to show the Yanks how we do things or at least we hope too.
While we haven't got a massive group of girls fighting there this time, that's mostly down to the fact the last one was a cross over PPV, which from what I can grasp was a huge success.
So we have to start with the biggest news that came out of the PPV announcement, Gal Gadot will challenge Blake Lively for the FCBA lightweight title.
Now we'll admit it's hard to sugarcoat that maybe Gal getting a title shot as she hasn't been ripping any boards up with her skills.
But this is Wonder Woman we are talking about, in a bad Superman vs Batman movie, her cameo (that's what it basically was) is the most talked about thing.
The upset could be on with her new look Amazon built body but the most likely result is she is beaten and well I hope I'm wrong.
Talking of Lookout Atlantic, Rosie Jones is fighting in her FCBA debut from what I can see, she deserves to make the move after her impressive record in the BBU and she has held gold here.
She is fighting Elizabeth Olsen though, Olsen is no slough in any regard so this will be no walk in the park to say the least.
I have faith Rosie can pull it out the bag when needed so I have her winning this fight but I certainly won't underestimate the skill of Elizabeth.
Now on to the fight that might get the most views, Taryn Terrell fights Bayley in the latter's debut fight, two beautiful fit young women who happen to wrestle as well should be fun.
Taryn is a former JMD champ which is where many of her fans have come from, while Bayley of course is seen as the future of women's wrestling and alot of people would argue the present.
Claims of hugs and possible training together show that there is a level of respect but let's see how long that lasts when they are nose to nose and later clinched up, trying to shove each other or dig each other to the body, it might become heated to say the least.
That's the big bouts for the BBU side, there is also Alessandra Ambrosio vs Padma Lakshmi and Kaya Scodelario vs Lyndsy Fonseca to watch out for.
