Intro:
Main event time! We finish this year's Diamond Boxing Tournament with an all English clash in Wembley Stadium. Iskra Lawrence (1-5) and Amy Willerton (5-1) have had polar opposite times within the tournament. Tonight is all about bragging rights as they battle it out.

Before the bout both were given a chance to face off on a stage in front of the press. Iskra wore a white dress with matching heels. Amy meanwhile is wearing a red dress with black heels. They pose with their fists raised for the cameras as they face off. Then head off to their stools as a podium is set up.

Iskra is asked to speak first. She steps up to the podium and tells the press "I have been waiting for this contest for awhile. I have had to watch Amy go on a run of wins and you know what... I know for a fact she isn't in my league." Amy chuckles at that.

Flexing her arms, Iskra adds "I am stronger then her. Tougher and will enjoy putting her lights out in front of all our fans. You won't be laughing then." With Amy shrugging her shoulders as she doesn't seem to be taking Iskra serious. The latest form of Lawrence not exactly making her seem threatening to one of the form fighters in the celebrity female boxing world.

Amy gets her chance to speak. She says "I am excited to be fighting back in England. To finish the tournament off with all my friends and family at ringside. My stable has been such a rock for me since I signed with them, so I have to thank them for all that support." Blowing a kiss out to the crowd where her manager Sharon Horgan is out there.

She then changes the subject to this bout. Telling Iskra "I respect you but you can belly ache all you want. I have proven my worth in the ring and you have not fulfilled your potential, you are big, strong and athletic but maybe if you took all the energy you use to talk a big game and used it into the ring, well then you could be a champion." Iskra's cheeks flush red. She shakes her head and storms off the stage. Amy waves to the press before she walks off with a smile.

Fight Night! First to emerge from the backstage area is Iskra with her coach Jennifer Love Hewitt. She walks down the aisle getting cheered by her supporters, she looks in a serious mood to prove herself here. Climbing through the ropes into the ring wearing a white sports bra with red trim, matching trunks and shoes, red gloves, with her hair tied into a ponytail. Iskra stretches her arms as she waits for her opponent.

Here comes Amy to her own loud cheer from her supporters. She has Ali Landry working her corner as they walk to the ring side by side. Amy gets into the ring wearing a navy blue sports bra with white trim, matching trunks and shoes, white gloves, her hair is in a ponytail too. Amy gets a fist bump from Ali as she nods to her.

Both walk to the center of the ring. Amy bounces on her toes as Iskra has her hands on her hips. Intensely they stare each other down. They are told to touch gloves and both thud their gloves into their opponents with a crack of leather ringing out. Walking back to their corners as there is a duelling chant breaking out. Once everything is set the bell rings to start 10 rounds of welterweight action.

Round 1:
"Ding!" Out they come with a loud roar from the crowd. Both women's left glove touches their rivals as much as the target. Amy smartly trying to create angles to strike and not get into a slugfest with the heavy handed Iskra. Who is stalking after her as they box around the middle of the ring.

A missed straight by Iskra leads to her getting caught with one into her face. Amy drives back Iskra with a jab/straight to knock her head back. Iskra finding herself stuck under wraps as Amy looks to pound her into the ropes. Moving to dig away at the torso of Lawrence till she is pushed off.

Both letting their hands go more now they are into the fray properly. Iskra wanting to close in on Amy but is getting hit with some nice counter punches. The round comes to a close with a solid start for Willerton as she walks back to her corner. Iskra deep in discussion with Jennifer.

Round 2:
Stepping out with more purpose; Iskra is looking to mirror the movement of her foe. Both exchanging stiff single punches. A straight catches Amy near her nose and in steps Iskra with a sweeping left hook to twist the head of her opponent to the side.

Amy finding herself being cornered against the neutral corner. Trying to fight back but getting hit with some hard shots that forces her to clinch up. Iskra presses Amy into the turnbuckles to make things uncomfortable for her till they are pushed apart. Resuming with Iskra continuing her march forwards to keep the heat on.

Moving her head more to dodge and hit back. Amy starting to give some heat back to her opponent. Cheeks getting marked up as they box with Amy with the ropes towards her back. The round comes to an end with Iskra showing why she can be such a dominant force inside the squared circle.

Round 3:
Both looking to establish control of the action. More flurries being exchanged to the delight of the fans. Amy being drawn into a bit of a firefight, with a left sweeping across the front of her nose to open a cut on the bridge. Amy finding herself getting knocked back to her heels and pressed to the ropes. Making her clinch up again.

They resume after being split up. Amy looking to keep on the move sticking her jab out to try to keep Iskra back. Iskra looks fully focused though so soon enough she deflects a jab to crowd Amy back against the ropes. Working her body with hooks till Amy latches onto her again. Both digging a free hand into the others kidneys before being broken apart and warned to keep to the rules.

Less then a minute to go Amy managing to catch Iskra with a short left cross, followed by a straight into her opponents face. Amy moving more to the left side of Iskra and drilling in straight punches as much to the chest of her foe as to her cheeks. Iskra forced to land single punches in response. The bell rings to end proceedings, Amy nodding to Ali as she listens to her advice.

Round 4:
Stepping back out with Amy sticking to the left side of Iskra to stay away from that booming right. The pace slows a little as Iskra looks frustrated, the first real time in the fight she is throwing some hooks without any real aim. Getting caught with punches back into her face in response.

A counter right slams into the temple of Iskra to make her take a step back. Amy drives to the inside to work away as Iskra finds herself forced to cover up. Amy stretching her elbows here with hooks and uppercuts, not all land but it is keeping Iskra mostly under wraps.

Pushing off Amy and moving away from the ropes. Iskra finds herself now getting hit with some hard shots. A right opens a cut on her bottom lip as the duelling chants are getting louder. Iskra trying to keep her ground as she has turnbuckles near her back in a neutral corner. The bell rings to end the round with Amy tapping her cheeks as she looks fired up.

Round 5:
Resuming with determined looks etched on their faces. This is such an important fight on a personal level for them. Iskra using more left crosses to try to keep Amy in the center. Amy stabbing in stiff shots to those busted lips of Iskra to make her hiss as they are evenly matched in the opening minute.

A straight catches Amy on her chest. That holds her in place for a left hook on the jaw that twists her head to the side. Iskra soon hammers in another straight BEFORE A LEFT HOOK SENDS AMY SPRAWLING ONTO HER LEFT SIDE!

Iskra flexes her arms over Amy as she snarls "stay the f**k down." Being ushered towards the neutral corner by the referee before the count can begin. 1....2....3... Amy shakes her head to clear some fog from her head. 4....5....6... Amy pushes up to her left knee, right foot planted. 7....8... Getting back to her feet with a shake of her arms. Raising them to show she can fight on.

Less then a minute to go; as expected Iskra is looking to finish things now. Amy showing a good defence and jabbing at Iskra. Soon finding herself pushed to the ropes by Lawrence, who fires in short hooks to the body. Amy hangs onto her rival to slow her momentum. The round soon comes to an end with Iskra making a big statement this round. Amy needing to be fanned with a towel as Ali checks her over.

Round 6:
Out comes Iskra looking to keep the pressure on Amy. Who is landing some crisp punches on the move. Iskra looking to rough up Amy with her left forearm into her chest to muscle her back into a corner, landing a few cross punches before Amy can hold onto her right arm. Things are scruffy as they use their free arms to strike into faces. The referee steps in to break them up with another warning.

Back at it they go with Iskra looking to keep the aggressive touch. Amy thought is landing several nice counter punches in response as Iskra is a little too open. A left hook catches Iskra on her chin to turn her head. A straight slams into the right eye of Lawrence to make her grimace as she backs off now. Momentum switching around as Amy smells blood in the water.

Pushing off Amy before her back touches the ropes. They exchange stiff shots as both look to win this round. Ending up in a sweaty clinch when they both miss and come together body to body. Rabbit punches are exchanged as they are desperate to win the round. Broken up with moments left in the round as they go toe to toe. The bell dings to end proceedings. They are getting patched up on their stools with Iskra looking annoyed that she hasn't been able to subdue Amy even after the knockdown.

Round 7:
Both step out their corners to fight on with eyes firmly locked. Amy stabs in a few jabs as she moves more on her toes again. Iskra missing with a few hooks as she stalks after her foe. AMY SEES HER OPENING AND LANDS A NASTY LOOKING UPPERCUT FLUSH ON THE CHIN OF ISKRA! HER LEGS ARE LOOKING JELLY BEFORE A LEFT HOOK CRASHES ON HER JAW TO SEND ISKRA CRUMBLING TO HER BACK!

A loud roar erupts from the crowd as Amy's supporters are on their feet. Amy walks to the neutral corner and holds onto the top ropes either side of her. 1....2....3....4... Iskra groans as she shuts her eyes. 5....6... Spitting her gumshield out as she rolls to her left side. 7....8....9....10 that's it! Iskra is counted out!

Winner Amy Willerton KO Round 7

After:
Amy with the comeback victory. Showing how much it means to her as she sheds a few tears of joy. Turning around to raise her arms in the air as she takes in the loud cheers from her supporters. Ali rushing into the ring to hug her from behind as they are both beaming.

While Iskra needs to be checked over by Jennifer and the ringside doctor. She sits up after a few moments groaning. Staring at the canvas with tears running down her face. She thought she was going to win after the knockdown but she has to feel the sting of losing this English battle in front of her fellow countrymen and women.

Over comes Amy to offer an olive branch with her left fist held out. Iskra ignores it as she is still raw for her. Amy nods and returns to her corner. Iskra tossing her gloves off as she is fuming. Jennifer trying to cool her off.

Soon enough Iskra is helped out of the ring. It won't help looking back on this tournament and finishing seventh out of the eight. To think she won in the first week of the tournament and then proceeded not to win another fight.

In the ring Amy gets her right hand raised in the center of the ring to a loud cheer. She blows kisses before bowing to each side of the ring. Overjoyed by this moment as this entire year has been special for her. Winning her first title with the Queen of the Beach. She has finished second in this tournament with only the winner Hailey Clauson beating her.

Climbing out the ring. Amy hugs Sharon at ringside. The person who gave her a chance to become the fighter she is now within the League of Mighty Women's stable. The future is bright for the English rose as she high fives fans around the ringside area. Being the center of attention as the best English welterweight right now.
