Before: Fox a legend on British soil, once a fearless brawler, and still the biggest draw in London when she fights. Losses to Rachel Weisz, Geri Halliwell, Melinda Messinger and many others have done nothing to deter her fans from betting big Fox money in London parlours, and this fight is no exception, as bettors make Liz only a slight favourite. Hurley looks drawn and a little gaunt in coming down to meet the pudgy blonde, and Sam is bigger through the calves, thighs and biceps than the slender brunette during the weigh in. Liz fills out come fight night, but it will be interesting to see how the strain of making weight will effect Hurley. Union Jack bikini for Fox, white Austin Powers bikini for Liz.

R1: Crowd goes wild for Samantha as she blows kisses before the bell. It is Liz who takes control quickly though, stepping to Sam, keeping her elbows in, and her open palms cupping her face as she steps to the right, turning her shoulder and slipping Fox's punches with ease. Liz is completely relaxed, bright eyes calculating every move, flicking the right jab out - all wrist -just touching and molesting Sam's face with her knuckles. Sam follows Liz around the ring for most of the round, getting her face buffed and polished by the quick, slapping punches, but in the final minute, Fox buries her head in Liz's gloves and bombs away with both hands at the body of the brunette. Sam's body jiggles insanely as she draws her elbows back almost to shoulder level before plunging her punches in foxy boxing style. Liz defends easily, taking the blows on her elbows and shoulders, but Sam plays the flurry for all it's worth, perhaps swaying the judges, and definitely impressing the crowd with the late fury.

R2: Sam comes out bouncing, jiggling up and down as she mugs at Liz and tries a little Hamed action early with mixed results. Liz soon settles the blonde down with her slick defense, the indrawn elbows catching everything, the gloves absorbing the head shots, and by the midway point, Liz is flicking and slapping at Sam's face once again. By the final minute, Hurley is dropping a slinging left hand, timing it to catch Sam as she draws back to punch, and the blonde is staggered by pinpoint power shots to her face and breasts at the bell.

R3: Liz Hurley has Samantha Fox all figured out, and she breaks the blonde down entirely this round with her southpaw attack. Sam blunders forward, as Liz steps right, patiently dropping her fists down in a hammer motion from the elbow as she looks to set up power shots. Fox's face glistens painfully as she absorbs more and more punishment, and in the final minute, Hurley lets her fists go. Stepping right, and clipping Fox' chin with short lifting right hands, Liz steps into the blonde, flinging the delayed left hard to the face of Fox. Sam staggers back as the crowd screams for her to fight back. Liz keeps the pressure on, always touching Sam with a left or right fist before bringing a smashing roundhouse in with the opposite fist. With seconds left in the round, a sickening right uppercut lifts Sam's head up out of her guard, and leaves her helpless. Liz' finishing flurry batters Sam into a corner, and prompts the referee to stop the contest. KO3 Liz Hurley.

After: Hurley shows total contempt for the page 3 legend during post fight interviews, calling the bout an 'easy' contest, and urging Fox to retire. Not much chance of that as long as Sam can sell out Wembley stadium faster than the Rolling Stones, but she was outclassed by Hurley on the night.
