Tom Hilton: Hello ladies and gentlemen, this week was surprisingly quiet, so our episode will be more editorial based then purely review style.
We'll be starting this weeks episode with massive news on the BBU flyweight title, it will be defended on the PPV, so stay tuned for that.
Then we do talk fighting, with Alexandra Burke and Cher Lloyd duking it out on Friday night, who emerged the victor of the X-Factor war.
Third on the show will about a bout we didn't have time to talk about last week, Federica Nagri and Chloe Khan gave the BBU a little international flavour, with both wanting to keep their bludgeoning careers growing.
Finally we discuss the future fight between the unbeaten Jasmine Armfield and the still looking for a win Chantelle Houghton.
I am sorry for the delay this week; busy times here mixed with issues outside our control has led to this week being late, I hope we have done a show good enough to make the wait worthwhile.

Part 1: BBU flyweight title fight preview So we can announce before the PPV is announced next week, that the BBU flyweight title will main event and it will be a Geordie derby, as Geordie Shores Marnie Simpson will be challenging singer Cheryl Cole for the gold.
Marnie is an interesting choice; she is undefeated so far in 6 fights, with her biggest win being her last over former champion Mikie Hara in her home country of Japan in what to some was an upset.
While Cheryl of course is one of the true pound for pound Queens in all of celebrity boxing, the past two years since she started fighting in the FCBA has seen her finally fulfill her potential that plenty saw in her.
So this is going to be one hell of a test for the always confident Marnie, who will have age and size on her side to give her some advantage, she has shown with her perfect knockout record that she has real power in those fists and may need a knockout to win this.
The experience factor of course goes to Cheryl; who will be in her 67th fight by the time she defends her title, she has plenty of big fight experience too and whether Marnie admits it or not, it must be frightening to step into the ring with someone like that.
So the clear favourite will be Cheryl, Marnie will need the performance of her lifetime if she is to win this fight, Cheryl will most likely look to pressure from the opening bell and it's up to Marnie to match that intensity.
Can Marnie pull off the upset? Yes is the simple answer, she has the tools to do it, but Cheryl has more in her arsenal right now for me to look past the champion making her 5th successful defence, making her one of the most successful champions in the BBU's history.

Part 2: Alexandra Burke vs Cher Lloyd Since Cher debuted last year; I have heard people wondering when these two would fight, both made their names in the X-Factor, though it isn't hard to argue that Alexandra has had the better singing career, Cher has had the better boxing career so far.
But after a bad run for Cher; she got a much needed win over Stephanie Davis, it had to be asked though if she is still has problems that can be exploited.
It seemed to give confidence to Alexandra, with the first round nearly all her as she boxed smartly on the outside, while Cher showed arrogance to keep her guard low and stalk her around the ring.
Whatever Cher's coach said between rounds seemed to wake her up, she came out strongly in the second and Alexandra showed what a lack of belief can do when under fire, she started to swing more hooks out of desperation and Cher kept getting in close where she loves to work.
Cher would score a beautiful knockout in the third, Alexandra was so badly out of it that when her gumshield came out, she was struggling to get it back in and was counted out for it.
I can tell you that Alexandra will be OK as she had to be taken to the back by the ringside doctor, of course she won't be back in the ring for at least a month now after this knockout for her own safety.
Cher meanwhile needs to get her head in the game for real, she is too lax at times and while on Friday night it was OK for her to do, if she gets that dream fight with Cheryl Cole she wants, well Cheryl will destroy her with ease.
I like Cher for the record if you haven't seen me talk about her, but it does annoy me; so I hope she takes my advice and we see her fulfill her potential in the ring.

Part 3: Federica Nagri vs Chloe Khan We didn't have time to talk about this last week sadly, this was a great fight and thankfully we have time now to speak about it.
Both women are rookies in the ring; with Federica not having a great start to her career so far, but facing some real tough opposition hasn't helped her cause so far.
While Chloe has had one fight, that a win in JMDD rules, so it was hard to gauge how well she'd do under traditional rules.
It has to be said or at least our good friend Charlie Webster pointed out that Chloe has been sunning it in Dubai then doing much serious training.
It showed in the early going as Federica went straight at her and Chloe found herself having to cover up, with the opening rounds all going the Italians way.
With a shocking fourth round seeing Chloe put down Federica with a hook catching her on the chin, Federica pushed her way back to her feet, but Chloe had confidence finally behind her.
The Leeds lass pushed the pace, smacking her fists off the gloves of the defending Federica, Chloe getting points on the board but never finding gaps to work through.
It led to Federica catching Chloe out and in the eighth, she knocked out Khan with body shots that I think would take the fight out of anyone judging how hard they were.
I hope this is a wake up call to Chloe, she gave her all it seemed and she failed miserably due to not using her skills, the jab seemed nonexistent, which is always my pet peeve, hell if George Foreman says the jab is the most important punch, why do celebrity fighters think it is a waste of time to use it!
OK I'm calm again, Chloe might simply be a JMDD fighter to be honest, sometimes you see fighters not being able to adapt to both, only one style suits them, JMDD normally suits the straight forwards attack minded fighter, the defensive tactics of Federica confused her.
Federica meanwhile is starting to get a head of steam, the reason why boxers fight weak opposition to start is to gain confidence, well now she surely is starting to get that confidence with these wins.
I'd suggest her fighting another 2 or 3 gatekeeper and jobber level at least to keep growing, if they jump her back against top stars then all the hard work they have done the past few months will be pointless.

Final part: Jasmine Armfield vs Chantelle Houghton preview OK I have to say this first, I know Jasmine is a soap star but as I have said countless times, I have no clue about her since soaps are not my cup of tea.
Also has anyone heard from Chantelle? Because I can't remember the last time I have seen or heard her, in fact the last think I remember about her was her boyfriend at the time storming off the "Never Mind The Buzzcocks" set, god I miss that show.
Anyway these two are set to do battle, where Chantelle is looking for her first win against the 1 and 0 Jasmine, who beat Ali Bastian, which lately who hasn't?
OK so first let's look at stables, usually I don't but this time it's an old vanguard stable in Foxfire Atlantic vs the fresh revamped Marti's Maulers, plenty of pride will be on the line as I can tell you the Foxfire management do not want to be a footnote in the rise of a new powerhouse stable with their girls being beat by rookies.
So expect Chantelle to be trained harder then she has ever been, I expect her in great shape when they take off their robes and go face to face for the first time.
But will fitness really change her fortunes? Well it'll oblivious help, the biggest issue is her glass jaw, she has went 25 rounds in 7 fights, meaning she lasts an average of just 3 rounds a fight.
So Jasmine is the favourite, as long as her coaching staff are keeping her fit and honing her basic skills in the ring way, meaning using that jab to frustrate Houghton, then once the opening appears she has to smash that glass jaw all over the canvas.
I don't normally praise management as I probably should when they are smart, Tamzin Outhwaite of the Marti's Maulers deserves great credit for the way she is bringing forwards her fighters, she isn't rushing them as other managers tend to do.
This isn't a race to the top; you have to work on skills and fitness with experience in the ring, all three are what makes a fighter a great and Tamzin is giving the fighters every change to be great, it's up to them.
Also Foxfire deserves credit too; Jasmine being a rookie gives Chantelle hope, you couldn't put her in with any decent fighter right now, hopefully she has gotten better in her lay off and we get a great fight.
OK guys that's all we have time for; I hope you enjoyed the show and will be back for more next Sunday morning for another Real View.

Jasmine Armfield: So that cream puff Chantelle thinks she's got a chance cos she's facing a rookie,i'll have to bash some sense into her thick skull,if she's lucky it might last 3 rounds.
