BEFORE: Samia Ghadie continues her BBU comeback tour and arrives at the Manchester Veldrome to face the former Page Three stalwart Louise Porter who recently made the news as Geordie Shore Holly Hagan's intended target. Porter has rarely been THIS popular since The Sun removed the topless feature but like any hard-working glamour model, she plans to make the most from this opportunity regardless of Ghadie's favorable betting odds:

"You know, this is my time to shine! Finally people stop asking me about Louise Glover or whether Jorgie Porter is my sister! Nonsense! When I wipe the canvas with that plastic bag Ghadie, even that cheap ### Hagan will worship my boxing skills!"

Of course Samia shows little respect to her opponent and believes she's better suited to remain BBU's pin-up girl, that status has been long disputed by Jenna-Louise Coleman, Michelle Keegan and Cheryl Cole but Ghadie won't give up the fight under any circumstances. BBU TV's Kate Abdo indicates that perhaps Samia should focus on the "other" Porter straight from the Hollyoaks arch-rivals but this is only a comeback after all and the Manchester-born actress suffered a nasty beating at the hands of Shona McGarty back in April which makes tonight's clash with Liverpool girl Louise a much better choice.

Samia Ghadie wears a black basque top, red knickers and red gloves. Long dark blonde hair tied in a custom ponytail. Louise Porter wears a navy blue bikini set with black trim, black knickers and black gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a sleek ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the flyweight division.

Round 1:

Samia wastes no time in front of her fans and digs her mitts into Louise's gut before ripping a left/right cross over the top that spins the model's head to the side and allows the older blonde to dominate the subsequent close range tilt. Samia literally barks with every shot that lands on Louise's face and the Scouse girl struggles to embrace the early heat which leads into her backing into the ropes before too long with Ghadie dishing out further punishment. She traps the model butt-in-ropes andn lays into her boobs for a good measure; unfortunately the high guard crumbles very quickly underneath the Corrie barrage and Samia underlines her dominance by blasting a couple of piercing uppercuts on the chin that sink Porter on jelly knees deep into the final minute. The younger blonde manages to secure a late clinch after Ghadie runs out of gas a little but the Velodrome audience dwells on one of the most impressive starts Samia's ever made into a BBU clash!

Round 2:

"You're going down, bytch!", Samia quickly lets the glamour lass know she's in for another nightmare but as she approaches the fellow blonde with a jabbing assault on her mind, Louise unloads a quick left/right combo on the lips and gallops into Ghadie's enhanced chest to freeze the Corrie veteran in the center of the ring before a low punch on the waist line bends her against the model's shoulder. The crowd jeers at the alleged foul but Porter has none of it as she scythes her foe's guard and piles on more leather on the rack which dumps Samia into a clinching struggle but the model shows supreme strenght and bumps the actress off before catching her on the fly with a nasty hook on the left brow ridge. Ghadie wobbles back to the ropes with a quiet scowl but finds no time to react for the looming Scouse assault as Louise traps her in the corner with a spirited jabbing drive and keeps soaking up more leather beef until the bell; Samia's head snaps back repeatedly as her high guard barely withstands the onslaught and the Velodrome crowd is as stunned as Kate Abdo in the booth by the sudden change of fortunes in the ring.

Round 3:

Both girls are quick to resume the classic flyweight bash and it's a war of attrition in the opening minute that leaves Samia nursing a visible swelling around the left eye while Louise earns a fat lip for her troubles. The Beevers' coach Denise Lewis urges the Corrie actress to show some tactical finesse but it's the frickin' Samia Ghadie we're talking about here while PageThrees entouarge led by Danielle Miller and Zoe Hawkins supports Louise's aggressive "all-in" approach. However the brusing nature of the exchange requires a brief pause in the second minute and allthough both hellcats still seek nothing but complete destruction of their opponent, the physical fatigue kicks in and Samia's slightly surprised that her left eye is so damaged already. She wrestles Louise back to the ropes and nearly tackles her to the canvas but Porter has the proverbial last laugh when she drills the older blonde's breadbasket and leaves her gasping for air in visible discomfort at the bell.

Round 4:

"What are you doing? What are you doing? Think! Focus!", Denise Lewis is mad as a hatter over Ghadie's tactics but after sharing the same gym for years, she ought to know better! Meanwhile the PageThrees camp still encourages Louise into more aggression and the model responds by working around Samia's swollen eye that staggers her in the center of the ring before a measured hook on the navel slumps the actress into a jabbing series on the rack which silences most of the Velodrome audience. Samia tries to restore the Manc pride throwing strikes from the back foot but she can't dissect the Scouse guard whatsoever and eats plenty of response upstairs which helps Porter to pound the Corrie lass into the corner come the final minute. It's Louise's turn to bark in delight with every shot landing clean against Ghadie's face and the BBU flyweight pin-up endures a right old beating in the dying seconds before the ref hauls Porter off to cool the tempers. Samia spits her gumshield straight into Denise Lewis' hands and goes all "F### it" as she ponders her options.

Round 5:

All smiles in the PageThrees corner after that impressive display of Scouse fury but Louise needs to keep her foot on the gas pedal against BBU's most experienced operator to finally break the Manc hearts. She seeks another close range assault but eats a quick hook on the temple and gets stuffed with a jabbing drive on the rack that wobbles her into a heavy right hook on the nose! Oi!!! Porter sinks on her knees and blinks frantically as Samia scythes her guard for good and pounds into open space with a jabbing combo that snaps the model's head back & forth before a belting hook on the liver area DUMPS THE SCOUSE BLONDE ON HER BAKSIDE in the center of the ring! Danielle Miller and Zoe Hawkins are left speechless but Samia yells out in delight and almost kicks the fallen girl on the head before backing off at the very last moment. Louise is stunned by the knockdown but wants to take revenge on the Manc lass ASAP and scampers back to her feet at five - too quickly for Kate Abdo's liking - yet applying the correct tactical plan was never PageThrees' strong suit based on years of evidence. Samia waves her glove at the shaken model and wants her to come at her... Louise obeys to the tease... AND GETS BLASTED ON THE MOUTH with a right hand stunner before a left hook drills the temple and shuts Porter's eyes on the spot. They probably heard that combo all the way up in Liverpool too... Louise hits the timber mode and drops flat on her back with Samia screaming out like a woman possessed and making more gestures at Danielle Miller in the opposite corner. The count is slow but poor Louise remains dazed by the one-two hammer double and mumbles her departure as the Velodrome crowd errupts in joy long before the ineviteable scoreline. KO5 Samia Ghadie!!!

AFTER: It doesn't get any better than this for the Manc faithful as they beat one of the finest Scouse flyweight women around. Samia remains the city's favorite operators and her BBU comeback is a case of national importance according to Kate Abdo (herself Manchester-born which explains the little bias). It's essential that the long-time Coronation Street actress shelves her American foray disaster as quickly as possible and becomes a title contender again. Blackpool-born and London-based Jenna-Louise Coleman has ruled the division with the iron fist over the past several months and most of the Manc/Scouse community is simply tired of this. 

The Beevers' have thrown Jade Ewen at the flyweight dominator lately but came up short however Denise Lewis believes that Samia still has all the tools to remove Coleman from the throne. However she needs more regular work and regular wins over the summer because she's not winning a war of attrition against the current champ anytime soon - even Kate Abdo rests her case over the suicidal tactics applied by Ghadie so often. It's not a question of confidence though but outright ring maturity. Samia's a real crowd pleaser all across the country but there's a reason her winning quota is a meager 46 percent...

Final result: Samia Ghadie def. Louise Porter KO5.
