Alex Curran vs Raffaella Modugno

(Lioness Club vs BBU Independent)
(13-16-1, 11 KO vs 1-0, 1 KO)
Results: BBU; Story: Vassago

BEFORE: It's not like Alex Curran deserves to be demoted to mere journeywoman status but this is how tonight's match-up feels like with Italian model Raffaella Modugno coming to town. The lanky brunette busted up Peta Todd literally a couple of weeks ago and wants to double down on her BBU entrance while compatriots Manuela Arcuri and Elena Santarelli refuse to fight her for the time being. They might have no choice going forward according to BBU TV's Georgie Thompson but it's the blonde pride of Merseyside that gets the big opportunity to silence the hot-blooded Italian tonight! Lioness coach Mel B. believes there's a lot of hollow hype surrounding Modugno but there's only one way to find out whether that's true!

Alex Curran wears a red bikini set & white gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a loose bun at the back of her head. Raffaella Modugno wears a black bikini set & golden gloves. Long dark brown hair in loose curls. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the welterweight division.

Round 1:
Alex wants to impose her veteran presence in the ring but the brunette shows her no respect and clatters into her face in straight up fashion which rocks the blonde on the spot. Alex gets blasted on the lips and struggles to break through Raffaella's jabbing haze until she lands a fortunate overhand swing on the eye which only annoys the Italian tourist. Raffaella keeps piling more head-hunting pressure and forces Curran into a lenghty slugging drill that overwhelms the veteran and leaves her sagging on the ropes come the final stretch. Alex simply can't punch herself out of this hole and eats a nasty scything hook on the chin to drop into loud spasms come the bell.

Round 2:
Raffaella looked a little nervous on her debut two weeks ago but she's hassling the Mersey blonde from both flanks here tonight and there's very little Curran can find in response. She plugs some nice shots into the brunette's face but gets rocked with a vicious overhand swing and one must say those Modugno punches seem to carry a lot of weight as Alex stares down her foe with utmost disbelief but still gets whacked in her pretty face. Raffaella outmuscles the blonde in a classic back & forth slugfest and whacks her in the liver area to underline her advantage. Alex bails out in a mid-distance safety but keeps yielding real estate and gets trapped on the turnbuckle right at the bell with Modugno landing more crisp body shots in the process.

Round 3:
Alex lets it rip... she catches the Italian flush on the lips and piles extra pressure in the phone booth which gives her a clear edge but Raffaell refuses to back off and clinches the Mersey model into safety. Alex gets vocal as she shakes the clinch off but only grazes her opponent's flesh thereafter and fails to really clamp down on the hitherto dominant Italian. Meanwhile Raffaella bounces back in style when she scythes Curran across the lips and blasts her with a brutal hook on the brow ridge. Alex wobbles to her heels and just can't beat Raffaella for the overhand swing which lands on her temple and sinks her into spasms on the spot. Modugno cracks a left uppercut on the chin that spins the blonde sideways before a late clinch saves the Merseywoman from more trouble in the closing stages of the round.

Round 4:
Alex tries to spoil another Italian charge but she's losing another slugging battle and eats more nasty head shots that result in visible swelling under both eyes come the one-minute mark. Ugh! Alex simply can't outwork the brunette in close range and it's agile enough to dominate the mid-distance dance which drops her into more swollen misery once Modugno begins to mercilessly work her high guard over. Raffaella shows some core strenght advantage as she barges the ailing blonde onto the ropes where she bangs more body shots and cripples Curran into loud spasms. She drives a left uppercut into her jaw at the bell too and it's no wonder Alex shakes her head in frustration with coach Mel B. slowly running out of ideas how to turn this contest around.

Round 5:
Raffaella makes sure the Lionesses have nothing to worry about anymore as she drops a haymaker bomb ten seconds into the fifth and Alex's chin simply can't embrace that hit... she goes all numb on the spot and gets SMOKED by a right-handed shot on the temple that SPINS HER FACE-DOWN ON THE CANVAS!!! Ugh! That's some genuine welter power on display but Raffaella softened the blonde up for several minutes already and reaps her reward in style. Alex can only make it onto all fours at seven and refuses to rescue her pride as she slumps down into more spasms while the merciless count passes her by moments later!!! KO5 Raffaella Modugno!!!

AFTER: The lanky Italian leans back on the ropes and blows a kiss to the virtual fan wall before she tries to rub some insult into Mel B.'s face but she's waved off and has to mind her own business for a while. Alex is duly escorted back to the locker room but the Lionesses are still taunted by the victorious Italian who claims "English girls are soft!" and demands a proper test before too long. Georgie Thompson would really like to see Manuela Arcuri testing the rookie compatriot but BBU fans might not see this fight happen until 2021. Stay tuned!

Official Result: Raffaella Modugno def. Alex Curran KO5.
