Part 1: Lacey Turner vs Brooke Vincent The Fight Club UK stable might be the most interesting stable in terms of drama within itself, Katie Price might be the most dysfunctional manager too.
I say that because take her fighting her own fighter on her debut, Lenora Critchlow had the pleasure of being beaten up by Katie.
Well this was the latest piece of public drama from the stable, Lacey Turner is undefeated after 6 fights and Brooke well has 1 win in 10 fights, Katie it seems wanted to use Lacey to punish Brooke for her poor performances.
The tension showed between Lacey with Katie on her side and Brooke had Holly Hagan in her corner, both groups seemed ready to tear the gloves off and fight it out in the ring.
Instead they kept cool enough for the boxing fight to happen and Brooke took the fight to Lacey, with the Coronation Street star outboxing her stablemate.
Lacey did get in the face of Brooke to begin targeting the body, looking great as she usual does on the inside, power punching being her forte.
But it has to be said that Brooke surprised myself and others with her speed and fast hands allowing her to control the action, snapping the head of Lacey back and keeping the range at her safe distance.
The problem was that once Lacey got inside again, could Brooke take the punches? The answer came in the fifth round as Lacey hurt Brooke with a stiff liver shot.
That led to the sixth round when Lacey finished off Brooke with more body shots putting her opponent down, that liver shot in the round before was the killer blow and the rest just ripped the soul from Brooke.
After the fight Holly nearly got into a fight with Lacey over her gloating about beating Brooke, Katie stepped in but showed her lack of good leadership, she had a chance to get the fighters to shake hands and move on, it looks like she really did want Brooke punished as she told Holly to take her out the ring so Lacey could celebrate!
This win keeps Lacey going towards a title shot, but she honestly reminds me of Wilder, not a great boxer but has power to keep her streak going, I feel someone is going to find her out someday soon as she will meet a note complete fighter as she moves up the rankings.
Brooke meanwhile has shown she can box, she just doesn't seem to have power behind her punches, if she could have kept Lacey at bay she probably would have won this fight on points.
I'll be watching closely for the next drama to come out the Fight Club stable, I am sure something else will be coming soon.

Part 2: Olympia Valance vs Billie Piper As we have finished speaking about Lacey Turner, well Olympia Valance came into this fight undefeated with rumours that if she could get past this fight that they would fight, with Lacey keeping her end of the bargain.
Standing in Olympia's way was Billie; who hadn't fought since 2015, so to come back after 3 years out the ring against an unbeaten fighter was going to be one hell of an upward battle in itself.
There looked to be a lot of respect between the two women, once the bell rung though Olympia was onto her opponent quickly, driving the older fighter around the ring.
But Billie showed she wasn't there to be used as a punchbag, she surprised Olympia by using great defensive skills to keep catching out her opponent.
The action was shockingly back and forth, people including myself assumed Billie couldn't match up with Olympia after such a long lay off, it could be argued though that Billie was winning the fight.
Round 6 though saw a change in the action, Olympia started to take control of the action as she bashed the face of Billie more freely, the stamina of Billie started to show that it wasn't up to the level of Valance's.
She kept in there though till round 8, where Billie was put down after a hard body shot opened her up, the follow up punches knocked Billie's head back and she ended up on her back.
This was the second longest fight for Olympia and like against Kimberley Walsh, which went 9 rounds; Olympia still has some learning on her technique.
Billie meanwhile deserves a lot of credit for this performance, she pushed hard this fight but for all those who say ring rust doesn't exist, well it clearly does as Billie burned out after the half way point of the fight.
So now it looks like Olympia and Lacey Turner are headed for a collision course, both undefeated and they have flaws they need to fix before that fight, with the winner maybe getting a title shot.

Part 3: Mallory Jansen vs Zoe Salmon Mallory has had a rocket strapped to her back in the ACB, winning the ACB lightweight title in only her second fight, now she is trying to break into the BBU market.
Zoe on the other hand started great in her great, but she has went on a losing streak and ended up losing her management.
That didn't stop Zoe promising she'd knock out Mallory, with the Aussie laughing it off I hear when she was told about that.
The fight itself started quite evenly, Zoe looked to start off on the front foot and did catch out Mallory with several good clean power shots that must have worried Jansen's corner.
Mallory though came back at Zoe, landing good crisp punches through the defenses of Salmon, which while she started slow; she came on strong as the rounds passed by.
The end came in the fifth round when Mallory had broken down the guard of Zoe and ended up with her getting knocked out by two vicious hooks.
It keeps the unbeaten run alive but she has to get off the starting blocks quicker, she seems to be like a diesel engine, runs strong when heated up but is definitely vulnerable before then.
Zoe on the other hand is in a slump, she has girls I think she can beat but she is starting to slow down and that leads to her getting caught more freely, that's what cost her this fight and problem more in future.

Final Part: Alex Jones vs Lottie Moss At only 20 years old; Charlotte or Lottie as she likes being called has a lot of time on her side to grow into a top contender, right now her agent is clearly looking at building her confidence and her skills up.
Her latest opponent was Alex Jones, who has 1 win to her name but has lost a lot more and seems to struggle to get fights on a regular bases, which certainly isn't going to help her.
The fight started with Alex looking to take the fight to Lottie, maybe hoping to make the rookie make a mistake and she'd punish.
Problem is while she had the better work rate, her punches didn't have the speed to catch the younger woman, instead getting countered by Lottie.
Who would come on strong and end things early in the third round, first putting Alex down and when she got up, Lottie ended it as she forced the referee to step in when the Welsh lass couldn't defend herself.
This was a good performance off Lottie, though one you have to expect from someone wanting to make it big in the ring, Alex hasn't age on her side and doesn't seem to have the skill set to threaten anyone.
It'll be interesting to see who Moss fights next, she needs to go up a level next year, again no rush to go against any of the elite, she can't keep fighting women who won't press her much though.
That's all we have time for this week, I hope you guys enjoyed today's show and thank you for taking the time to read it, we will be back next Sunday.
