Lioness Club presents: "The Uncovered"
Lily Aldridge vs Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
(BBU Independent vs Kear's Kats)
(1-0, 1 KO vs 1-11, 1 KO)
Results: BBU; Story: Vassago

BEFORE: This is the Easter Eve headline-maker in Barnet as the Victoria's Secret & Sports Illustrated stalwart Lily Aldridge makes a guest appearance in the Lioness Club head-quarters which immediately raises several eyebrows around the place. Even BBU TV's Georgie Thompson smells some money changing hands recently as one wouldn't expect such a high-profile name on a seemingly casual boxing card without a good reason. On the other hand we have Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, a familiar face to all the BBU followers and another member of the famed VS cast but the hammer only drops when none other than the reigning ACB bantamweight champion Miranda Kerr enters the ring to announce this line-up to the visibly surprised audience. Yes, the very same Miranda Kerr who defended her ACB belts in style a little over 48 hours ago has made the trip from Sydney to North London and there's enough evidence to prove that the Lioness Club front office has poured massive resources to make this fight happen and again, they must have a valid reason to do that! The cheeky smile on Kate Garraway's face indicates that alone! The plot thickens!

Lily Aldridge wears a navy blue bikini set and white gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a loose ponytail. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wears a pink bikini set and black gloves. Long blonde hair wrapped in a bun at the back of her head. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the lightweight division.

Round 1:
Lily's win over Jennifer Ellison sealed the Ryder Cup triumph for the Yankees back in October but the gorgeous brunette receives a much warmer applause from the Barnet audience when she attacks the fellow model with aggressive overhand strikes that immediately force Rosie into hectic cover. Rosie's boxing record is one of the worst from the entire model camp but one must admire her courage as she tries to match the intensity of the American here in the opener - even though she gets outworked in close range and wobbles heavily on her feet come the final minute. Aldridge keeps the intensity going and lands several crisp single punches upstairs however she fails to reel the blonde back to the ropes to underline her dominance in the ring.

Round 2:
Huntington has a slight reach advantage and she beats the American for the opening punch in the second before landing a nasty combo on each temple to force Aldridge back. A chaotic follow up misses the target but Rosie keeps driving forward and swings a number of times hoping to catch the older model cold. She fails in her efforts but enforces a lenghty circling retreat from Lily who bides her time in adjusting her sights before squaring off in close range again during the latter stages of an otherwise cagey round. The lack of true experience tells it's story though and Aldridge bounces off the blonde's guard repeatedly as Rosie visibly improves her work rate and recovers from the poor opener - she doesn't find that big punch though to make the most of her performance upgrade and that's her original sin ever since she joined the BBU.

Round 3:
Rosie tries to work some footwork magic but Lily adjusts to the increased tempo of the fight and actually delivers the better punches in another hectic jabbing exchange during the opening minute. She connects with the blonde's rack after slicing her arms apart and lands a powerful uppercut to reel Huntington back on her heels. A desperate effort to swing from the back foot goes nowhere and Lily sinks her foe with a vicious cross hook on the nose that makes the Plymouth model scowl in pain and disappear behind a tight earmuff thereafter. Aldridge dominates the final minute following that combo and rams the younger lass to the turnbuckle where she pierces her breadbasket in a swift change of targets. That keeps the blonde wrapped in a desperate cover and allows Lily to land free punches on the body until the ref drags her away when the clock expires.

Round 4:
Aldridge keeps her momentum going and ducks underneath a sluggish aerial approach from the blonde and BOMBS her on the midsection with a mean jabbing drive that immediately makes the English model squeal and wobbles forward into a very inviting punch from the charging brunette. LILY FINDS ONE ON THE JAW and whips the Plymouth lass on her heels with the arms dropping low... too low to react for a brutal follow up that SLAMS her on the nose AND SENDS CRASHING DOWN ON THE CANVAS in a hurry! Lily shakes her glove in delight and carefully backs off to her corner while Huntington tries to shake off the knockdown. She sits up at six and makes it back onto her feet at eight but the American charge is fully underway now and has Aldridge blasting quick jabs in close range which render the blonde into wholesale retreat. Lily punches the hapless rival back into the corner where she dissects her high guard and sways her head back & forth until the bell mercifully halts the one-way leather traffic. Rosie slumps on soft knees and looks relieved more than anything else but the Kats head trainer Gail Kim is furious as she's about to witness another emergency exit from one of her long-tenured journeywomen. And that's actually a kind assessment of Huntington's career performance.

Round 5:
There's just no way Rosie can recover from the knockdown dismay and she gets quickly connected by another gut-checking drive from the rampant American who glues her punches into the blonde's belly and slumps her into shimmy shake mode before the one minute mark. The high guard offers little protection as well and Lily blasts through it with ease down the stretch which fully renders Rosie into departure mood. A cruel smack on the left ear wobbles the Plymouth lass into a loud shriek before the brunette silences her with a nasty follow up on the nose and that's too much for the overwhelmed model WHO SLIDES DOWN ON HER BACKSIDE still aching her pain out in numbers. Ugh! Lily's relentless push for glory gets rewarded soon as Rosie bellows out on her back and covers her face behind the gloves letting the merciless count to pass her by. KO5 Lily Aldridge!!!

AFTER: King Of Leon's "Sex On Fire" pumps through the KO Club speakers when the American model's victory is declared and that's no coincidence since Lily's married to the band's lead singer. She roars out in delight and punches the air but refuses to dwell on her success for too long and offers the fallen English babe a helping hand which even catches Gail Kim by surprise. Rosie tries to hold back the tears of defeat but accepts the warm hug and shakes her head trying to display a smile of sorts to the audience. Well, another day, another defeat for Mrs. Jason Statham right there!

However there are bigger things about to unfold as Miranda Kerr joins Karolina Kurkova and Kate Garraway to present the leopard-printed bikini set and a basque top in matching colors to officially welcome Lily Aldridge into the Lioness Club stable! Yes, a full membership was always the plan for the gorgeous brunette and Lily's mood immediately improves when she notices the otherwise skimpy outfits in Miranda's and Karolina's hands. Meanwhile Kate's smile couldn't be any bigger when she hands out the contract and Aldridge has her gloves removed to sign it with a lenghty giggle never leaving her lips.

"I knew it! I knew something was up when Miranda flew over from Sydney! And Karo! She's been so quiet back in New York!"

Yep, Aldridge's long-time friend Kerr was in on the news and didn't waste any time to be present in London upon Lily's big contract moment. The Victoria's Secret backstage terror triplets are now all under management with Miranda at the almighty Downunder Boxing and Alessandra Ambrosio over at the Harry Keegan-owned Girls Friday. It's a shame the Brazilian bombshell couldn't join the Barnet party tonight but she was occupied with previous committements in America. Nonetherless both Miranda and Lily are looking forward to join forces with Alex really soon and BBU TV's Georgie Thompson ponders when Aldridge decides to make her big move overseas. Because that seems to be out of the question especially given Ambrosio's similar late-blooming success story.

"The Uncovered" decision has been made official and in a rare moment of Lioness/Kats respect even Gail Kim drops her usual "kill 'em all" demeanour and attends the post-event VIP party where she admits she'd have swapped Rosie for Lily in a blink of an eye if only she could. Going back to the infamous release of the Girls Aloud members back in 2013, the Kats have been more than unfortunate to watch the Lioness Club grow into international stardom at their expense. However that's a tale for another day and different circumstances to elaborate on.

Final result: Lily Aldridge def. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley KO5.
