Second of the bantamweight fights of the night features the Welsh champion Charlotte Church and the Australian powerhouse, Miranda Kerr who won no less then six bantam title fights back home and comes with the reputation of being the toughest fighter even to come south of the equator in the 120 lbs division.

After an up-and-down 2011, Church knocked out Katherine Jenkins for the Welsh bantam title before defeating the French newcomer Clemence Poesy in the Invitational event just few weeks ago. Still, that's nowhere near enough to impress the Aussie model who won the ACB Unified Bantamweight title over former AWUBA Featherweight champion Zoe Ventoura back in January and remains undefeated in three internationally recognized bouts. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the bantamweight division.

Both girls make their way to the ring; Kerr looks truly astonishing in a pink bikini and black gloves. Church tries to hold her own, wearing a red bikini and black gloves, but at the introduction it's the visiting girl who gets the bigger applause! New crowd favorite in North London?

Round 1:
Church storms out of her stool, immediately jabbing at her rival's face, but Kerr weaves around those shots; reverts to some single jabs to the ribcage instead. Welsh blonde pours in with more punches at the face, closes the distance easily and whacks a big right hook to the cheek! Kerr wobbles on her feet, stunned by the aggressive approach, but leans on Church and manages to clinch as the local girl couldn't land another wild hook in time. Both girls struggle in the stalemate, but Charlotte pushes the Aussie away and clips her mouth with a straight jab. Kerr looks concerned, nothing like the Australian's finest bantam as Church harasses her all over the ring for remainder of the round landing single jabs to the arms and body, working high-tempo and Miranda keeps the low-key attitude, retreats along the ropes and fails to engage into any meaningful attacks.

Round 2:
Heavy pep-talk in the Aussie corner, coach Visser lets it all out scoffing at Miranda and there's a visible change in her attitude at the start of the second. Church leaps towards her and unloads more wild hooks to the ribcage, but Kerr blocks them with her arms and lands a crisp uppercut in response. Welsh girl got surprised with that one as her head snaps back and Miranda piles on with more shots to the face, snapping Charlotte's head back and forth before she can jump back to the ropes. Kerr slowly moves forward on her, Charlotte backs against the ropes and allows her to thrown more nasty jabs to the midsection before another left hook bends her head sideways. Kerr opens up from both flanks, peppers the stunned blonde rival without any resistance as Church tries to sidestep away from danger zone, but eats more leather and receives a nasty cut on the lip after one of Miranda's hooks went through her gloves and landed clean on the mouth. Charlotte winces in pain and the methodical punching enables the Aussie model to completely dominate the round, keeping the Welsh girl pinned along the ropes and absorb relentless punishment which is only stopped by the bell.

Round 3:
Atmosphere has switched in the Lioness corner now, coach Gina Wild has lost her temper and urges the heavy-breathing Church into breaking the Aussie's charge. Charlotte's face is reddened as she took quite a few shots in he second round and allthough she comes out in aggressive mood, Kerr easily weaves around her efforts and counters with nasty sequence to the ribcage which has Church moaning in pain again. Aussie model follows up with cross hooks to the face, breaks the Welsh girl's guard and lands another jab to the mouth, opening the split lip for good. Church swallows her own blood from that cut, but looks to get something going with single jabs to the head. Kerr blocks them and whacks her in the jugs in response before more hooks land on her face. Church bends down, covers up, but gets pummelled to the ropes under the barrage and the methodical destruction continues as Miranda opens up from both wings and lands unanswered shots to the head and body. Crowd watches on this extreme display from Kerr in silence and coach Wild shakes her head as Mirands keeps pounding away at the aching Welsh blonde. She sways her back and forth with more vicious hooks around the arms which graze Charlotte in the ear and she winces even louder, wobbing heavily on her feet as the ref looks on in anxiety. Left hook from Kerr drops Charlotte's glove down and she lands another cross hook to the nose! Messy stuff as Church stumbles forwards and looks to grab the model's waist as she goes down, but Miranda jumps away and smiles upon seeing her rival land on her knees. Ref refuses to start the count, claims that the local girl just just slipped there! Dubious decision! Kerr keeps her calm even though Nikki Visser is livid in her corner. Church wipes some blood from her lips and checks her nose as Miranda moves on her again, unleashing vicious jabs to the face and Charlotte barely survives the round, leaning on the ropes and taking more unanswered punishment.

Round 4:
Charlotte's face is very swollen now, the number of clean shots Kerr landed has doubled up in the third and the Aussie shows no signs of stopping her attacks. She immediately catches the Welsh blonde in the nose with a crisp left jab as Church was too slow to react and more punishment follows as Miranda closes the distance in no time, jabbing to the midsection and looking for more uppercuts to the jaw. Church throws some single jabs, grazes the model's flesh without any significance and retreats after yet another of Kerr's counter hooks nails her in the cheek. Miranda continues to work the high-tempo, lands more jabs to the stomach and Charlotte is backed against the corner post, absorbing more shots to the body as the crowd await the inevitable. Halfway through the rounds Kerr catches the aching blonde in the guts and breaks her guard with a huge uppercut that only gets stopped by Charlotte's jaw!! DOWN GOES CHURCH, landing on her knees, her face now busted up badly and the fire gone from her eyes!! Ref shoves the surprised Aussie model to her corner and starts the count after a long waiting period, allowing the Welsh blonde to finally get up at seven, but that lasted almost twenty seconds according to everyone in the audience!!! Church off the hook big time!! Nikki Visser's ripping her own hair in disbelief as the command is given, but Church looks like she's had enough already, remains rooted to the spot as Miranda fakes a low jab and whacks her in the face with a hooking combo as Charlotte's gloves were slow to get up after that previous trick and now there's blood pouring from the Welsh blonde's nose as she got nailed clean. Kerr moves on to finish her off, but ref steps in and calls the doctor. Coach Gina Wild is beside herself and looks concerned as Charlotte's nose is busted up badly, doctors cannot stop the blodd flow and there's a heated words exchange between Wild and the medical crew. Ref looks to join in the fracas, but gets called to the Downunder corner where Miranda sits down and glances over at the frantic action around her rival. Coach Visser is all over the man in charge vehemently questioning some of his decisions...

Amid all this drama, Charlotte bursts into spasms as the doctors sqeeze her nose, checking up the damage. This doesn't look good! No, he's shaking his head again. There's a big suspicion Charlotte's fractured her nose and it's all over. Doctors won't allow her to continue. Coach Gina Wild barks in anger but upon seeing the Charlotte's battered face, she nods her head and accepts this decision. TKO R4 Miranda Kerr in injury-causing fashion!!!

Post-fight:
Coach Visser missed the drama in the Lioness corner, still arguing with the referee, but Miranda Kerr climbs off her stool and walks towards the girl she just demolished and offers her a consolation hug. In the meantime Charlotte's lost all her venom and fights back the tears, acknowledging this friendly gesture from the Aussie champion. Kerr looks as laid back as if she injured a sparring partner, not the Welsh champion and the crowd applauses her efforts after her hand is raised by the visibly unhappy referee. His biased decisions couldn't stop Kerr from sending the local blonde to hospital and the Lioness entourage loses another of it's members before the night is over. That's three ouf of four girls, not just beaten, but brutalized by the ruthless Australian opposition.

Final result: Miranda Kerr def. Charlotte Church TKO4 (Doctor Stoppage).
Series result after 4 of 8 bouts: Lioness Club 1, Downunder Boxing 3.
