Fleur East (Beever's Babes) v Harumi Nemoto (Front Street Japan)

Intro:
First into the ring for this fight is the impressive Harumi, unbeaten so far, and creating a reputation as a big puncher, and she looks good in her scarlet bikini, gloves and boots.
Fleur takes some time to join her,the Brit also unbeaten, and also a big puncher, but Nicola Roberts floored her in her last fight, and she may be more vulnerable than her Japanese opponent,although she looks fantastic in her black bikini, gloves and boots.

Round 1:
Both girls are eager to get into this fight, and they swap hard punches within the opening minute, which Fleur seems to have emerged slightly better, making Haruni step back, and she certainly seems more energetic after that, prodding her opponent backwards, and landing a good shot to her body, Haruni fighting back with a couple of good uppercuts to rock Fleur, but she comes back again, and catches the model with a good left hook to her cheek, and now she gives Harumi a lot of trouble with big head punches, Haruni covering as she backs off, but Fleur’s still getting her punches landing on the Japanese girl’s face, and she’s controlled the back end of this round, leaving Haruni looking hurt at the bell.
Round 2:
Harumi needs to fight back quickly, and she's doing just that, as she gives Fleur three big left hooks to her impressive body, and has her backing off, targets her with that uppercut again,and smacks it up and into Fleur’s face, and now she’s the girl stepping backwards, as Harumi swats her to her face, and Fleur’s looking confused as she gets pushed backwards into a neutral corner, the Japanese girl getting right on top in this round, Fleur’s defence not enough to stop the punishment continuing as the model lets good punches go with both hands, and she’s already got Fleur bleeding from her mouth as she crashes another solid punch into her lips, andshe has the measure of Fleur right now as the second round ends.
Round 3:
There’s no let up in the violence inthis fight, as Harumi again takes the fight to Fleur, and presses her back to the ropes, but this time the singer punches her way out of trouble, and there’s another big punching trade, and again Fleur gets the better of Haruni, and she’s on top again, hitting and hurting Haruni as she prods her across thering, the model covering well, but even so, Fleur’s landing punches, mainly to her body now, sapping the Japanese beauty’s strength with those slapping punches, trying to bring her defensive guard down, but Haruni’s not giving in, and she fights back beautifully, pinging Fleur backwards with a superb combination before the round comes to a close.
Round 4:
Fleur’s making a quick start to theround, and she’s landing some really hard punishment on Haruni, sends the model backwards really quick, sets her up – and puts her down with a peachy righthook! Haruni gets to her feet at 6, and she shakes her head to clear it, and that knockdown seems to have galvanised her, as she bats Fleur’s face from side to side, the Japanese lovely really competitive, and she gets the better of Fleur in a swift exchange of punches, and now Haruni’s giving Fleur a hard time, the singer sporting a nasty swelling on her left cheek, after she gets nailed with a couple of heavy right crosses, and once again Haruni sends her to the ropes and batters her, those swinging punches thudding into Fleur’s waiting face, her left eye gradually turning into a slit.
Round 5:
Haruni seems to be gaining momentum,and she takes Fleur on in a trade off, landing crisp and hurtful punches on the singers face, and Fleur’s staggering as she takes a crushing right hook, her arms flailing as her guard disintegrates, and this is a big round for Haruni,who’s battering Fleur from cornerpost to cornerpost, and she’s hurting the singer, lands that left and right combination again, and Fleur’s down – she looks messed up, but she’s on her feet at 7, and says she’s ready, but Haruni’s got her going again, swings a clubbing right hook into her jaw, wobbles her again, and she’s doing everything she can to end Fleur’s unbeaten record in this round, lands plenty of punches on the Brit, but can’t put her away, and she looks frustrated at the bell, with Fleur looking like a dead girl walking now.
Round 6:
The girls are ready again, Fleur seemingly revived as she swaps solid hooks with Haruni in the centre of the ring, but the Japanese girl’s hurt her with a lovely uppercut, banging her right glove up between Fleur’s defensive gloves, and now Fleur tries to hold and clinch, but still Haruni lands solid shots, giving Fleur’s face plenty more leather, and Haruni knocks her down again, a left hook to the side of Fleur’s head putting her on the canvas this time, but Fleur’s strong, and she’s on her feet again at 7, Haruni shaking her head, but she wades in again, Fleur taking more punishment, her face getting messed up, but still Haruni can’t finish her off, and now Fleur hands some punishment back, her solid right hook wobbling a tiring Haruni as the end of the round draws near, both girls sporting bruises around their eyes as this brutal fight continues.
Round 7:
Fleur’s off her stool and across thering very swiftly, and she pops Haruni’s head backwards a few times, the model eating some good jabs, and Fleur’s got her teetering backwards to the ropes,and she gives her the sort of treatment she had to take earlier, Haruni now onthe wrong end of a two fisted beating, just about getting off the ropes – butshe takes a solid left, and Fleur’s knocked her down, Haruni sprawled across the canvas, albeit only briefly, getting up at 5, but she looks very unsteady,bleeding from a horrid cut to her right eyebrow, and an excited Fleur gives her some more hard and heavy punches, Haruni all over the place, her face a mask of blood, and Fleur and drops her on her backside again, the model bravely getting up at 8, but she’s finding it hard to stand, and the referee stops the fight to save her from a possible tragic finale.

Result: Fleur East stopped Haruni Nemoto in round 7

After:
Fleur certainly doesn’t take any easy fights these days, and she desperately wants the bantamweight title. Will Lea Seydoux give her a shot at it?
