(Double A Boxing vs Knockout Babes)

Intro:
Tonights main event sees two elite bantamweights duke it out her in the Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham, Una Healy and Daisy Ridley both want a BBU title shot and hope this will move them a step closer to that dream.

Una is 38 years old; she stands 5'7, holding a record of 25 wins, 19 coming by way of knockout, with 15 defeats, she is a former two time BBU bantamweight champion.

Daisy is 27 years old; she stands 5'7 as well, holding a record of 12 knockouts, 11 coming by way of knockout, with 7 defeats.

The two women met at the press conference, confident looks on both their faces as they posed outside the arena with their fists up to each other with a sponsors board behind them.

Moving over to tables set up for them, the organizer waves for Una to speak first, grabbing her microphone as she turns to Daisy as she speaks.

"I'll admit I have been impressed by you Daisy, you have skills that plenty of people would love to have" says the Irish lass with a friendly smile.

That smile turns to a smirk as she adds "but I don't think you have the heart for this sport, each time you have been challenged you have simply curled up into a ball on the canvas and given up"

Daisy doesn't seem to pay much heed to that talk, first replying "honestly Una I hadn't seen you fight before I got to see videos of your fights, you are an awesome fighter and Jennifer (O'Dell) agrees that you are a real scrapper of a fighter"

She continues "I'd suggest though not questioning my heart, I appreciate you are a former champion with skills, you don't know me though, only after I blast your lights out will you know the real me"

Una nods at that speech; when they both stand up to finish the press event, they move together and surprise the crowd of journalists with a firm handshake, eyes locked in an intense stare down shows there might be respect but they won't let the other stand in their way.

Fight night; Una is out first with Kara Tointon working her corner tonight, she looks her usual intense self as she heads down the aisle, throwing a few punches to loosen up.

She is wearing a green sports bra with orange stripes down the sides, matching trunks, green shoes and gloves, her blonde hair is tied back into a ponytail.

Climbing through the ropes to a loud cheer from her supporters, Una pounds her chest with her right glove as she stands in her corner, then begins warming up as Kara tells her tonight begins her return to the top.

Next out comes Jennifer O'Dell leading out Daisy to battle, Daisy is smiling as she comes out looking excited by this match up, waving to the fans as she gets people telling her how much they love her.

The actress is wearing a blue sports bra with white trim, matching trunks with "Ridley" in white letters on the waistband, blue gloves and shoes, while her brunette hair is tied back into a ponytail too.

She gets inside the ring and bows to each side as she stands at the center, before jogging over to her corner to warm up, Jennifer reminding Daisy that each win is a step closer to the BBU title.

When they fighters come to the center of the ring; the stare down is intense, neither woman blinks as the referee finishes the instructions.

Told to touch gloves; respectfully they do so, quickly they turn and return to their corners, after final instructions from coaches the bell is rung to start 10 rounds of bantamweight action.

Round 1:
"Ding" at the bell both women start off respectful of the others talents, trading single punches as they move around each other, not wanting to rush into a mistake.

It's the former champion Una who makes the first real aggressive move, landing a jab/straight combo into the abs of her opponent, a small smile forming as she clearly got some confidence off that success.

When she tries to step in next time though, Daisy shows her hand speed to beat Una to the punch with a double jab to the nose, making the Irish lass take a step back and reevaluate her judgement on how easy it is to get at Daisy.

They both continue to fight cagey, Daisy landing the better punches as Una looks a little afraid to get stuck in, her tentative tactics though are getting her caught though.

When the bell rings Una looks annoyed at herself, telling herself to get out of her head and concentrate on the fight in front of her, maybe too focused on past failures this year.

Round 2:
This time both women come out trading more then single punches, throwing more two or three punches at a time as they circle around the center of the ring.

While Daisy looks to be winning the early exchanges with that hand speed, Una shows her experience to feint with her left, before dipping down to come up with an uppercut that doesn't land flush, it's a big warning shot though.

The singer keeps feinting to test out Daisy's reflexes, when Daisy comes forward looking sick of all the posing, Una slips a straight before hammering in two body shots that make Ridley groan out.

Una showing that she is still a slick operator in the ring, taking a few stiff shots to her face, but dodging more now before countering with some hard body shots and ones across the face of the younger woman.

As the round enters it's final moments, Una steps in with a jab to the mouth of her opponent, then switches to the body as she gets right into Ridley's grill.

At the bell this time Una looks like her old self, a confident smile as she sits on her stool, Jennifer meanwhile tells Daisy not to think this is gonna be a walk in the park.

Round 3:
Daisy looks to be trying to work out Una, who is moving more of the two side to side, landing jabs where she finds gaps in the Stars Wars actresses guard.

The brunette manages to catch Una with a left across her face, opening up on her with another three clean punches, before that experience of Una shows again as she pulls Daisy into a clinch.

Once apart Daisy tries to get back on the attack, she makes the mistake of throwing a left hook Una easily spots, with a right hook counter from the blonde landing under her ribs.

Using her left to nudge Daisy back; Una peppers the body of her opponent, making her groan out as she presses her along the ropes, Daisy landing some shots to the top of Healy's head, mostly clipping shots though.

So Daisy instead shoves Una backwards, who waves Daisy to bring it, they go toe to toe in a heated slug fest to a cheer from the crowd, Una's temper rising up heads get turned by nasty punches till the bell rings.

Una telling Daisy "I can read you bytch! You are nothing but a scared little girl to me!" Forcing the referee to step in as they nearly get back to fighting, instead calming down to head back to their corners.

Round 4:
Coming out their corners; Una keeping the pressure on Daisy, ducking down to jab the body of the brunette.

Daisy uses her left to nudge back Una, landing a straight into her mouth as the Irish lass tries to step back inside.

A follow up left hook turns the head of Healy as Daisy opens up more, the two trade hard shots but Una is on her back foot, Daisy driving her around the outside of the ring to the delight of her coach.

Una is able to land several hard shots to the mouth of Daisy, most of the punches though are coming from Daisy as she knocks back the former champion.

Late in the round; Daisy connect with two punches straight into the nose of Una, making her cry out as blood starts trickling from the blondes nostrils.

At the bell she touches her nose with right glove, seeing the blood and looking angry as she returns to her corner, where Kara works on cleaning it up.

Round 5:
As they come back out to fight, Una is definitely looking more aggressive, throwing a jab/straight combo up the middle to the face of her opponent, stepping in close to throw two hooks to the body after ducking a right cross.

Now Daisy has to adapt as Una gives her a different look; not dipping as much, instead she is getting right into the face of Ridley, forcing her into heated exchanges.

Jennifer is yelling at Daisy to use her feet more to get out these exchanges, especially after Una moves her head out the way of a right to land a right of her own to the ear.

Needing to nudge back Healy; Ridley finally gets her punches going again effectively, landing a left on the nose of the singer to start blood flowing from it again.

As seconds tick away in the round, they are fighting tightly in the pocket, sweat flies off their bodies as they grind foreheads, a war of attrition breaking out between them till the bell rings to end the round.

Nudging apart from each other; they turn back to their corners with Una getting a nod from Kara, getting praised by her coach but reminded not to take Daisy lightly.

Round 6:
Stepping back out Una tries again to pressure Daisy up the middle from the bell, this time the younger fighter knows what is coming and sidesteps before landing a right across Una's nose.

That makes Una cry out as more blood runs from her nose, she covers up more tightly as she fires out single punches, moving around the outside of the ring as Daisy comes at her.

Picking her punches now she has more freedom to strike; Daisy moves around Una, targeting the body before she is able to switch back up top to unleash hooks across the face of Healy.

Who desperately clinches up with Daisy, blood from her nose stains the back of Daisy's blue sports bra, the referee steps in to break them up.

Una manages to dodge a straight to land two hooks to the body, she gets nudged back before a left cracks her across the cheek to send her back towards a corner.

The round ends with Una in her shell in her corner, her lower face looks a mess as her corner team is quick to work on cleaning her up and getting nose patched up.

Round 7:
Even as Kara looks unsure if Una should continue, the former champion shows her grit to come back out to fight.

But as they start fighting; Daisy is feinting before she finds a gap to the nose of Una, making the Irish lass swing as she desperately tries to catch out Daisy.

Instead she misses and gets hit with an uppercut by Daisy, THAT OPENS UP UNA'S GUARD, A RIGHT HOOK ON THE JAW SENDS OUT THE GUMSHIELD OF UNA AS SHE TOPPLES DOWN TO HER SIDE!

Shaking her head Kara watches Daisy head to a neutral corner, 1...2...3...4.. Blood drips from the nose of Una as she stirs slightly, 5...6...7.. Una grabs for the ropes but looks glassy eyed, 8...9...10 merciful it is over!

Winner Daisy Ridley KO Round 7

After:
Another impressive win chalked up for Daisy as she continues to impress in the BBU, she is beaming as she jogs back over to her corner to celebrate with Jennifer.

Una on the other hand is helped to sit up, she gets her nose checked on and gets the good news it isn't broken, though right now the pain she is in isn't exactly good news either.

Helped up by Kara; Una stands proud even with a little help with the ropes behind her, she waves to the fans as she gets applauded.

Daisy comes over to check on Una, the two exchanging words of respect as Una admits that maybe she was wrong about Ridley, who thanks Healy for giving her the fight and a lesson in the ring.

After talking with Kara; Una decides to leave the ring, ice pack on her nose to numb the pain, she gives the fans a thumbs up though she is probably wishing she was home and taking pain killers to help right now.

While inside the ring after getting her blood stained gloves off, Daisy gets her hand raised by the referee, she looks so happy to have beaten someone she clearly looks up to.

Jennifer praising her as they talk about the fight, Daisy soon posing for the cameras with a big cheesy grin on her face as she flexes her arms.

Then as she leaves Jennifer tells Daisy that she should be in the title hunt here in the BBU, Daisy smiles and asks if her coach thinks she is ready, getting the answer "you were born ready"

This win with ones over Olivia Munn, Rita Ora and Hannah Ware, now with a former BBU champion in Una Healy, the future certainly looks bright for Daisy.
