The opening bout of the Lioness Club vs Dowunder Boxing rematch event features two of the stables' most prominent fighters. Lioness Club's Emma Bunton returns to action after losing to Adele Silva in the BBU championship tournament semi-finals over five months months ago. Her rival is the top ACB ranked flyweight, multiple AWUBA superbantamweight titleholder, Dannii Minogue who comes to London with the repuation of being the toughest flyweight ever to come from Australia and far from ready to hand down her crown to the highly-touted prospect Emily Browning. However she was sensationally knocked out by Penny Higgs in the inaugural ACB PPV title fights event, a loss that perhaps opens a low-key chapter in her illustrious career.

Before losing to Higgs, Minogue has won ten consecutive bouts including brutal knockouts over her sister Kylie and the well-publicized Ashes feud with Cheryl Cole whom she completely destroyed inside the first round. No one comes off the back of such impressive results and Dannii herself has stated that if she was Browning's age, she'd been flying to United States to make her FCBA mark in no time. Also a rematch with Higgs is on the cards as half of Australia was stunned by the way Higgs brutalized Minogue lately.

The atmosphere inside KO Club is electric. Dannii Minogue wearing a light blue bikini and black gloves. Emma Bunton wearing a black bikini and red gloves. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the flyweight division.

Round 1:
Emma steps up first with intensive jabbing to the chest and body, but Dannii blocks her off before unloading single hooks on her own. Bunton covers up well and both women tangle in a clinch early on, trying to push each other to the ropes. Neither of them succeeds, but Emma nails the brunette with a left hook to the head before jumping away. Dannii looks upset, steps in on her own, throwing combination to the face before switching back to the jugs. Emma blocks off the charge, but Minogue relentless in her plan, lands couple of shots on the boobs and pushes the blonde against the ropes where she tries to nail her in the face with couple of uppercuts. Emma continues to cover up, allows the Aussie to dominate her along the ropes and Dannii pours in with big jabs to the stomach and ribs. Bunton leans on her but takes several clean strikes before wrapping her arms around Minogue's neck. She manages to clinch but before teh ref separates the stalemate, Dannii lands a couple of nasty jabs in the ribs. Emma circles around after the command and Dannii teases her with another forward move but eventually backs off and waits for the bell. One thing is certain, Emma lasted longer in the ring than Cheryl Cole already!

Round 2:
Dannii comes out with aggression and lands couple of hooks straight after the bell. Emma's head snapped backwards but she tries to respond with a jabbing sequence to the stomach. Minogue was slightly surprised by this, didn't lower her arms and got hit clean before covering up. Emma throws more jabs to the midsection, but the brunette clinches her immediately and shoves away to the side. She tries to land a flying hook on the blonde's nose, but misses as Bunton manages to duck away from that one in the last second. Dannii jumps up to her though, looking for big shots from close distance. Her left hook is blocked and Emma responds with a chaotic jab to the chest that makes the brunette moan in pain for the first time. Bunton pours in with a follow-up, trying to make a mess of Dannii's jugs. Several sharp jabs land on the target and Minogue winces in pain again as she tries to jump away. Emma rocks her with a big hook to the lip and the Aussie is shaken on her feet. She stumbles after another punch catches her in the ribs and Emma literally pummels her to the ropes where she unloads another vicious attack, throwing jabs and hooks all over the Aussie's body. Minogue holds her guard well though, protects her face but her midsection is taking a heavy pounding. The crowd like what they see and Emma dominates the round landing several unanswered jabs along the ropes before the bell finally stops her onslaught. Dannii is visibly relieved while walking back to her stool. She wipes her mouth with top of her glove and sure enough, there's blood on it. Emma has squashed her lip up in the frantic exchange!

Round 3:
One or two people in the crowd begin to wonder where is the predator from Downunder everyone has heard of before. The beatdown which Dannii gave to Cheryl Cole was a front page story in Britain for a week but Emma is holding her own in impressive style so far. Indeed Downunder's head coach Elle MacPherson is making some nervous gestures during the interval to her compatriot and Minogue looks extremely focused. Cutmen have worked on the split lip and it doesn't seem to be bothering her for some time unless Bunton can work on it soon.
Fight resumes and Emma looks confident after the previous round, but a couple of hooks she's thrown at the brunette end up nowhere and Dannii pounces on the counter, jabbing the blonde's stomach and firing a nasty uppercut to the jaw. It's back and forth in the ring all of the sudden. Bunton engages is a vicious punchfest, lacing Minogue in the mouth, looking to open that wound again. Dannii's head snaps back, but she's responding with a big hook to the head around Bunton's arm. It lands clean on the cheek and Emma bends down, stunned for a moment. Danni jumps on her, jabbing from both sides to the head and three more shots really send the blonde into trouble. Emma tries to clinch, but the Aussie shoves her away and tries to nail in the face along the ropes. She misses and Emma clinches her as both women moan loudly, trying to get the upperhand. Dannii reverts into single jabbing to her rival's ribs but gets pushes away with an almighty effort from the blonde who circles back immediately, trying to catch her break. Minogue pauses for few seconds and starts to chase her down again, throwing single punches from each side. Bunton keeps the distance with some fine footwork, but she's lost all the momentum build in the previous round.

Round 4:
Minogue off her stool with a blast, nails the blonde with a big right hook in the eye. Emma shouts in pain and gets rocked with a couple of jabs to the chest. She's rooted to the spot for a moments and Dannii pours in with gut-wrenching sequence before landing a nasty uppercut to the jaw! Massive upping the tempo from the Aussie! Bunton sways around on her legs and gets romped in the guts one more time and down she goes on her knees, holding her tummy! Almost out of nowhere, the Downunder predator has struck a crushing blow. Crowd gets silenced, but the cheers get louder as Emma scrambles herself back upright at the six count! Dannii all over her though after the command, lacing to the chest and arms from both flanks, forcing Bunton to cover up and jump away. The local girl is clearly hurting and Minogue's desperate to finish her off! Methodical hooks from mid-range rock Emma's head from side to side and she gets pinned in the corner where Dannii punishes her with ill-tempered shots! Bunton takes six straight hooks on the head and slumps into a desperate clinching attempts. She's bit lucky as Minogue looks to have run out of breath with all that charge and allows the aching blonde to tangle up in the corner. Emma still in visual discomfort, bends down her head right under Minogue's chin. Ref doesn't separate them and the Aussie corner is furious! Dannii livid with the stalemate, gets her right arm free of Emma's clinch and laces her in the eye, resulting in massive roar in the crowd. It's turning downright ugly for the local girl as Minogue lashes out at her five times before ref steps in and drags her away. Emma's left eye-brow is a mess! She's been roughed up badly in that exchange and the bell comes out for the rescue as Minogue was looking to finish her off for good in a matter of seconds.

Round 5:
Worrying signs for Bunton, she's got a deep cut both underneath the eye as well as on the eyebrow itself. Incredible destruction from Minogue who's shown some impressive skills in the previous round, knocking the local blonde around like a rag doll. Emma looks is visible pain, three minutes of non-stop barrage has taken a lot out of her and Danni doesn't intend to stop! She charges out off her stoll with more jabbing to the chest and body as Emma covers up, struggling for comfort. Few seconds into the round and she's thrown onto the ropes again with Dannii pounding the crap out of her with well-placed jabs and hooks to the midsection. Bunton bends down, struggles to respond in any way, gets literally turned into a punchbag by the Aussie brunette. Crowd gets more silent with every single punch Minogue is landing and the Lioness corner is stunned. Dannii methodically dismantles her opponent, now throwing only single punches after witnessing Emma being completely stunned by the onslaught. Bunton backed into the ropes finally throws a chaotic response, trying to nail down the brunette in the jugs but gets rocked with another sharp hook in the head. She wobbles on her legs one more time and needs to tangle her arm in the ropes in order to stay upright! Ref jumps in but a fraction too late! Danni laces her in the eye with a crushing hook and cuts both wounds open! Emma slides down on her backside and slumps the head between her shoulders. Blood pours from the eyebrow and Emma is left sobbing in pain and disbelief. Ref doesn't bother to count and waves it off on the spot. The beatdown is over!!! TKO R5 Dannii Minogue in brutal and destructive fashion!!!

Post-fight:
Crowd stunned by the outcome. Dannii Minogue literally battered the local girl into a complete mess and needed only best part of three rounds to complete the wreckage of Emma Bunton after taking over control in the third round proper. This was even worse then KO1 trashing of Cheryl Cole. Emma's face has been turned into a pulp and she needs to be escorted to the locker room with a gigantic ice pack around the wounded eye. Bandmate Geri Halliwell looks particulary concerned but she's got no time to check on the blonde Londoner as she's fighting next already!

The verdict is announced with only Dannii Minogue left in the ring, the sobbing Emma has been taken away to the locker room and spared any further post-fight humiliation. Crowd applauds the winner with some reserve, seems like everyone is still impressed and overwhelmed at the same time by the nature of Minogue's victory. And one must admit, this was right up there with the most vicious TKOs ever seen in North London. Danni checks her lip after making the way back to her corner, but that small cut is nothing compared to the damage she's inflicted on Emma Bunton.

Final result: Dannii Minogue def. Emma Bunton TKO5.
