Intro: Mutya Buena and Bonnie Sveen are taking part in the first ever bout in what's been called the ironwoman competition, a best of three fights like the best of sevens made famous in the FCBA, the difference being these fights take place over a three week period. The beef between these two and why this event was set up? Both women claim to be the strongest fighter pound for pound in the world of celeb boxing. Judging by their physical forms, it is hard to disagree with them when you watch their past fights and when you put them face to face. Both had called the other out and when they got the call from BBU management to come compete against each other in this best of three, they jumped at the chance.
As part of the prefight build up, both women would arm wrestle in the BBU headquarters media room in sports bras and jeans and trainers. Both were confident they'd win and as one took advantage in the arm wrestling, the other would double down to shove their hands back to stalemate. Getting frustrated by the whole event, Mutya slapped Bonnie and tried to drag her over the table by her hair to finish the argument between them before they even stepped foot in a boxing ring. Bonnie fought back though with her own hair pull and the two strong women wrestled to the floor and security had a hell of a job pulling the fighters apart. The organisers were upset that something that was supposed to sell the fight had gone so wrong, that view changed as they saw the early replies on social media to the footage and people seemed to hate the armwrestling but enjoyed the brawling between the two women.
Fight night in the BBU arena in Cardiff, Mutya is first out, she comes into this fight with a 7 and 1 record, 7 perfect knockouts. She is wearing all black gear, sports bra, trunks, shoes and gloves down to the ring as she evidently wants to be like Nigel Benn's dark destroyer look tonight. She climbs into the ring to a loud cheer as she pumps her fist into the air, then heads to her corner to warm up. Out comes Bonnie, she comes into this fight with a perfect 2 and 0 record with an also perfect 2 knockouts to her name. She is wearing all yellow gear, sports bra, trunks with gloves and shoes and seems to be channelling Chris Eubank's showman look into her gear, has the BBU management stuck their nose into this as well? Climbing into the ring, she gets a respectful round of applause as some pundits question if her record is inflated thanks to her fighting only in Australia, others see her fighting for titles soon enough, with rumours she wants Emily Browning's ACB title and Jenna Louise Coleman's BBU strap. Both fighters glare at each other and are ordered to come to the ring centre for final instructions and to touch gloves. Thudding their gloves together, the ego on both girls when it comes to their strength is unreal and the glove touch becomes another statement for both to use. Back in their corners, they finish warming up and as the referee watches the time hit the hour, he waves to the timekeeper for the bell and we are off for 10 rounds of flyweight boxing action.
Round 1: "Ding" out come both girls, each has a tight guard, not being stupid to let that down against a girl who has the power to do some real damage early. A jabbing assault from both fighters begins the fight, but Mutya steps forward, wanting to be the aggressor, not the one being pushed back. That leads to the first powerful exchange for both girls and as quickly as they start to hurt each other, they step back and give the other a hard glare from behind their guard. Circling with the jab being the primary weapon, but this time it's Bonnie who charges forward with a pair of hooks around the guard of Mutya. The crowd cheer as the girls dig in against each other, head to head, they work each others bodies, looking to hurt the other early to save themselves for the next fight in the series. Instead they nearly clash heads and end up in a clinch, each girl grunting loudly with effort, finding a set of muscles as strong as their own it seems, as neither girl can push the other back. The referee struggles to shove both apart, shouting for them to release each other and both girls do, but their eyes are still locked together. Back at it they go, pressing forward to try and knock each other back, Mutya showing her experience, sneaking some shots to the jugs of Bonnie, knowing that those JMD style shots hurt worse then a lot of other shots. Bonnie steps back, looking hurt for the first time in her career, making the English girl smile and press ahead. A right cross though wakes her up from her cocky mindset, Bonnie is far from finished as she starts powering back behind her own drive, pumping shot after shot into the guard of Mutya, her fans cheering her forward. As the bell rings, Mutya squares up to Bonnie, telling her "is that all you got bytch?!" Bonnie doesn't answer with words, she pushes Mutya back and the referee with both fighters coaches rush in to separate the girls, both threatening the other on what they are going to do to each other. Finally both girls get back to their corners, each gets cleaned up as their bodies are starting to get marked up from the power of each girl, this isn't ballet as they say.
Round 2: Coming together again, the girls square up and start slugging it out, throwing to anywhere they can find space in. Mutya pushes her head down and nearly smashes her head into the chin of Bonnie, the inexperience of the rookie, making her tilt her head back and not try to step to safety allows Buena what she wants. Pounding the flanks of Bonnie, Mutya has her drive now, Bonnie tries to fight back, Mutya has her unbalanced and presses her towards a corner. Both girls light each other up, but a right hook from Mutya lands to the chin of Bonnie and down goes the blonde! Mutya gloats over Bonnie as the referee shoves her away and tells her to get to a neutral corner so he can start his count. The count finally does start as Bonnie pulls herself up to a sitting position in the corner, shaking her head to clear it, then stares at Mutya. At 8, Bonnie pushes herself up to beat the count and assures the referee she can continue, nodding to him and after a check, she is told she can continue. As soon as the order to fight is made, Bonnie rushes out of the corner, keeping some space as the fans think she's still not recovered and Mutya is like a shark, baring down in the water after it's prey. But as soon as she gets near, Bonnie comes out her defensive posture and starts swinging, that leads to both girls brawling to the crowds delight. Till Bonnie clinches up with Mutya both girls are grimacing slightly already, both their bodies are marked up, but that doesn't stop both still trying to shove the other back, head to head; they look like rutting moose. Separated, the girls circle as Mutya senses that maybe Bonnie isn't as hurt as she hoped, instead focusing on just keeping the pressure on till the bell rings. "Not in my class" says Mutya as Bonnie stares a hole through her, trying to keep her emotions in check as Myuta struts back to her corner.
Round 3: Bonnie tries to come out quicker, not wanting to be forced backwards again, it leads to both coming to the ring centre and trying to pound each other into submission. Mutya shows her wiles again, bumping her left shoulder into Bonnie's body, then swinging her right hand into the body of Sveen. The blonde is grunting with each shot and the referee warns Mutya to keep things clean as she feints ignorance at her actions. The girls square up again, using their jabs to try and open each other up, then sneaking a shot to the others bodies when they don't find success up top. A right hand up top by Mutya opens a cut under the left eye of Bonnie to add to her woes, this is the toughness fight that she's had and Buena isn't letting up one bit. To Bonnie's credit, she isn't backing up, maybe that's stupid as Mutya keeps sneaking her right through to that cut, causing it to trickle quickly. The girls go to work on the inside and Bonnie surprises Mutya late in the round, landing an uppercut through the gloves right on the chin and down goes the dominant Buena! Mutya shaking her head as she lays on her back, Bonnie raising her gloves to the crowd as she heads to a neutral corner. Shoving herself up at 6, Mutya doesn't look totally OK yet, but she takes the count to 8 standing and postures for Bonnie to bring it, maybe wasting time to clear her head some more. The referee checks her and seems happy to let her fight on, especially with not long left in the round. The girls meet head on, but the bell saves Mutya from being punished, both girls have been down and now they both know they are in a real fight. No afters with each other this time, just getting back to their corners to get cleaned up, Bonnie gets her cut cleaned as she winces each time it is touched, but it gets covered up with Vaseline and she's told to protect herself. Mutya meanwhile is shaking her head and getting woken up with the sponge, the cold water is making her refocus and she stares hatefully at Bonnie for putting her down.
Round 4: The girls are more weary this round, not racing in to fight as quick as before, instead using their jabs as they circle. Bonnie starting to score with more cleaner punches, pressing forward behind that jab, stinging the nose of Mutya. Buena tries to step forward herself and takes a hard straight to the nose, now she has blood trickling from her nostrils as Bonnie sees the blood and knocks her rival back a few steps. Mutya having to fight on the back foot and not looking at all happy to be stuck in this position, being attacked by piston like shots from Bonnie. Bonnie's eyes light up as she gets momentum and Myuta has to clinch up to stop herself being knocked into a corner. The referee has an easier time to separate them, the girls are not wasting time shoving each other back now, instead waiting to be pulled apart while taking a small break. In space, Mutya is under attack again from Bonnie, the blonde pierces the guard of her brunette rival with some hard straight shots. But Mutya spots her opening, throwing a right hook, it lands on that cut left cheek and Bonnie yelps loudly in pain. Mutya bangs forward with a good drilled combo up top and now she forces Bonnie back in a round that has seen her in trouble. Knocked to the ropes, Bonnie can only cover up as Mutya throws everything and the kitchen sink at her to try and end this fight now. Unlucky for her and her fans, the bell rings, Mutya silently stares at Bonnie, just glaring at her as Bonnie looks hurt from that last drive. Bonnie's left side of her face is covered in blood from that cut, all her confidence seems to be disappearing with each round now as she heads back to her corner with her head dipped down.
Round 5: The girls meet near the ring centre again, Bonnie putting up a brave front, coming forward to try and get back into this fight. But it's not long till she takes another shot to that cut and she's knocked to the ropes under a hailstorm of punches. A right uppercut puts her down! Bonnie lays motionless on the canvas and the referee waves the fight off due to Bonnie being knocked out.
Winner: Mutya Buena KO Round 5
After: Mutya looks down at Bonnie with no remorse on her face, just turns and kicks dirt as they say onto her opponent, before returning to her corner. Medics rush in to check over Bonnie, smelling salts are brought out to help wake her up and after a moment, she splutters awake to the realisation that she is a loser for the first time in her boxing career. Her face has blood covering part of it, that cut on her cheek was reopened before she went down and pundits are wondering how that will effect her in the next two fights she needs to win to take the series. Mutya meanwhile is getting her gloves taken off and she turns to go get some more of Bonnie, but security is in the ring to stop any afters, the organisers evidently learning not to let these two do what they want. So instead, she poses on her side of the ring, showing off her strong arms and telling the crowd "one fight down, just got to knock her sorry ass out once more and she is finished!" The crowd give her a mixed response, evidently starting to take sides after this first brutal fight between the girls, Mutya as she claims is hoping to win the series in the next bout. She watches Bonnie be helped out the ring by her coach, Mutya mockingly waves at her beaten rival and as the referee comes up to her, she points at her arm, that he promptly raises to remind people who won this fight. Mutya leaves the ring soon enough but poses for photos at ringside and eating up this moment, before she tells a camera filming this "Coleman, after I deal with this blonde sack of crap, I want that title around my waist bytch!" Then she leaves to go celebrate with her friends on the town.
