Before: “I was surprised when they told me Rachel McAdams wanted to fight me,” Daisy Ridley tells the press at the pre-fight gathering. “She is such a great fighter and I haven’t even had 10 fights yet. I will certainly do my best against her. I hope the fans will be pleased with my efforts.”

At the podium, Rachel explains: “I giving up 3 inches to Daisy and she is undefeated in 7 fights. She’s beaten Laura Vandervoort and Eliza Dushku in her last two fights. Neither of them is an easy opponent. She is serious challenge within the bantam division and I would rather fight her sooner than later. I am sure she will do her best against me. I will promise her that I will bring my best to the fight.”

Daisy is so pleased that she jumps out of her seat and hugs Rachel, Rachel looks startled.

“Really, Miss Ridley,” Rachel manages to say, ”it’s all right to hug an opponent, but you are supposed to do it AFTER the fight.”

Daisy becomes red with embarrassment as she backs off: “I’m so sorry, I’ve had to listen to a lot of trash talk from opponents. It’s just so refreshing not to be insulted in a prefight. I just had to thank you. I didn’t mean to embarrass you.”

Rachel laughs: “My dear, I have had so many prefights that ended in clothes ripping and hair pulling—I assure you I can survive a hug,”

The crowd laughs as Daisy continues to blush. Rachel comes over and gives her hug.

“Of course, I am still going to knock your cute block off,” Rachel whispers with a smile

“I will do my utmost to put that rather shapely derriere of yours on the canvas,” Daisy says developing a smile.

“That’s more like it, my dear,” Rachel says, “it just wouldn’t be an FCBA prefight without at least some trash talk. You are clearly learning quickly.”

With another laugh the veteran and the rookie shake hands (another seldom-seen sight at an FCBA pre-fight presser). Then they take their separate exits from the stage.

So not a lot of tension around this fight, but there is still a great deal of interest. Daisy Ridley has certainly proved she can beat veteran bantams. Now she faces her toughest test in multi-champion Rachel McAdams. It appears Rachel McAdams sees this as a test to find out if she can still be competitive against younger quality bantams. So fans should have plenty to look for as the two enter the ring.

Rachel is in a red and black one piece suits. Black gloves and boots with red laces. Rachel’s auburn hair in a ponytail. Daisy in navy blue one piece. Matching gloves and boots.

Rachel struck hard by this blow and is standing there in shock when Daisy’s right returns to crack against the side of her chin. RACHEL SPINS TO ALL FOURS! She crouches there gasping for breath and seeing the blood dripping from her re-opened left eyebrow. Daisy looks wide-eyed at the sight but then heads for the neutral corner.

THE WINNER: DAISY RIDLEY KO7

After: Daisy tries to rush over to the kneeling Rachel, but referee holds her back as Foxfire trainer Virginia Madsen tends to her fighter. Rachel helped to her feet and escorted to her stool. Daisy is finally allowed to go check on her opponent. Rachel is a sight, that left eye is sure to turn into an impressive shiner, but she manages a reassuring smile to the concerned Daisy.

“Congratulations, Miss Ridley,” Rachel says, “you are most definitely the real deal.”

Daisy nods: “Thank you, but I’m going to aching for days after this fight. You gave me a real working over.”

“You’ll find winning, especially your 8th in row is a great healer,” Rachel said

“You said its okay to hug after a fight, so here goes,: says Daisy bending over to hug Rachel.

“Just don’t expect that to happen very often,” Rachel says, “most girls want humiliation more than hugs,”

“I understand,” Daisy says, “but that just makes this special.”

“Come on, Rachel, I need to get you back to the dressing room and have that eye looked at,: Virginia Madsen says.

Daisy nods and walks back to her own side of the ring. The crowd cheers wildly for her and she raises her right arm to acknowledge them.

Daisy Ridley continues to impress. That’s three wins in a row over established bantams and she is now undefeated in 8 fights. Rachel McAdams certainly gave the rookie a hard test, but Daisy able to come back from knockdown and win the contest. The ABC fighters bantam prospects are shining brighter than ever. That may make Rachel’s loss a bit easier to take in the long-run should Daisy continue to rise all the way to the top of the division. After all, you can’t look too bad having lost to a future champion. Very good fight and bantam fans have every reason to look forward to Daisy’s return to the ring.
