BEFORE: Nikki Sanderson's fallen on hard times lately after getting absolutely destroyed by both Maria Ozawa and Kara Tointon and now old frenemy Cheryl Cole threatens to follow the same path and beat the buxom redhead in a complete pulp! These two have shared the Kear's Kats gym for best part of four years until Chezza switched over to Lioness Club and previously met back in October 2010 during BBU's formation period. They've never been the best of friends as both battled for the top Kats exposure in the flyweight division and it's still hard to say which girl is actually better! Denise van Outen thinks Nikki's short fuse might lead into her demise as Cheryl's found some mojo back after being pounded out by Jade Thirlwall in the Pride of Newcastle contest last year but then again, Nikki claims she'd wipe the floor with Thirlwall given the chance so there's nothing to be taken for granted with one of the veterans of the organization. 

"Nikki night be naive as hell but she's done a lot of good things for BBU! Can't say I'd feel sorry for Cheryl if Nikki whoops her ass tonight!", van Outen remains coy over the outcome of this fight despite Sanderson's recent struggles and indicates she's heard a lot of different rumours about Cole's imminient plans. "I know she wants to cripple Nikki like no one else but after that? She's not going to stalk Jade Thirlwall again for quite a while and well... let's just wait what she does here! Because if she loses to Nikki, all that post-Jade recovery would be rendered useless aside from the Girls Aloud in-house bragging!" 

Nikki Sanderson wears a black bikini set with white trim and orange gloves. Dark red hair in loose waves. Cheryl Cole wears a light blue bikini set and black gloves. Dark brown hair with blonde flashes in loose curls. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the flyweight division. 

Round 1: 

Nikki knows that her opponent will rush into the fight in front of her home crowd and tries to jump the gun on Cheryl with aggressive jabbing to the body. Allthough she clips the brunette's rack and digs some leather into the breadbasket she still gets whacked over the top as the singer comes flying in and rocks the redhead in the middle of the ring before wading into her chest too. Nikki gets rooted to the spot and has to soak up some heavy abuse but fights back from behind the guard and snaps Cole's head with a good jabbing series herself. However Cheryl refuses to buckle and harpoons the actress around the elbows to maintain her aggressive approach and manages to back Sanderson into the ropes come the final minute as the redhead keeps throwing lots of punches but loses her precision and allows the singer to outwork her along the ropes with more heavy punches on the midsection. 

Round 2: 

Cheryl resumes the high swinging and clips Nikki on the temples to shut her off in the middle of the ring before driving more looping jabs on the midsection. Sanderson's footwork isn't good enough to allow her to escape the subsequent close range heat and Cole barks in her efforts to chop the redhead down amid wild support from the Newcastle crowd. Nikki tries to stay in the exchange and clips the brunette's rack as well as breadbasket but she struggles to really sink something on the face and eats an uppercut combo on the jaw to wobble back on the heels and hand Chezza the edge. Furious jabbing sends her backing into the ropes afterwards as the singer keeps pounding along and digs heavy leather on the ribcage before switching upstairs and rocking Sanderson with more clean uppercuts on the jaw. Nikki's guard collapses badly in the dying seconds of the round and she gets shoved butt-in-ropes by the singer who picks her off on both cheeks to snap the reddish hair flying back & forth at the bell and forcing the referee to haul the Geordie favorite off her struggling opponent. 

Round 3: 

Nikki refues to accept Cheryl's increasing advantage and sticks it into the singer's breadbasket early in the third before clipping the rack as well but gets wrenched on the liver area and moans in pain as the Geordie brunette starts rocking her with more uppercuts upstairs and pounds her towards the ropes before too long. No escape allowed as Nikki gets plastered by a cross hooking combo on the lips and almost whipped over the ropes alltogether which allows Cole to punish her stomach amid more painful yelps that only fuel the Newcastle crowd's support. Heavy slapping from Chezza leaves Sanderson's midsection almost matching her hair color now but nothing hurts the actress more than a resumed uppercut assault that shuts her off completely in the final minute and has Chezza almost gassing out herself in a mindless bash that leaves Nikki swaying on her feet and the bell and almost miraculously avoiding a knockdown. Even Denise van Outen is astomished how the actress manages to stay upright in wake of all that Geordie punishment. 

Round 4: 

Sanderson's got really banged up to this point and looks in awful physical shape as she gingerly makes her way for another round only to meet a crashing hooking cross on the nose that drops her gloves seconds into the fourth and results in Cole rushing into her face in numbers. Nikki's head snaps back & forth vividly and the battered girls cries out even louder than usual as she finally gets ragdolled to the canvas after another hook on the nose broke her resistance... DOWN GOES THE REDHEAD crashing onto her side with eyes closed as Cheryl shakes her glove in delight and begins blowing kisses to the crowd already. Nikki still beats the count at seven and allthough she glares over at the singer with no sympathy whatsoever, she fails to prevent more Geordie leather crashing into her face and just rocking her back to the ropes where it's all Cole again - who else - as she rips whooping punches on the ribcage and makes Nikki gurgle her heart out in a desperate attempt to avoid another knockdown. "Had enough yet, ######?", Chezza shouts into her ear but begins to wear out in all that onslaught and drops into a late response as Nikki's hurting even throwing punches here but still slams a good combo on the liver area before clinching the otherwise dominant brunette just before the bell. 

Round 5: 

Cheryl promises coach Lioness Club coach she's gonna knock the redhead all the way to the orbit now and pounces on another flurry aimed at the head but Nikki - as sluggish on her feet as she is - ducks low and headbutts her in the breasts before piercing the ribcage in a last hurrah effort to turn this fight around. Chezza gets caught sleeping with that action and moans out in pain before driving a series of jabs on straight up the alley and triggering a massive leather exchange that lifts the entire Metro Radio Arena crowd on their feet! Nikki screams out in amid the epic struggle but even as she cuts the brunette on the left cheek, she has her nose pounded into a bloody river and sags on her knees on the two minute mark yielding the real estate to an absolutely livid local favorite in the proccess. "You filthy cow, I'm gonna make you pay for that!", Cole is furious over the cut cheek and only holds back her charge when the blood from Nikki's busted up nose gets into her eyes and the proud actress is just one wrecked mess here as she bellows out onto the ropes and covers up behind deep earmuff only to smear the blood over her face as Cheryl rips into her guts one more time and looks to dissect the liver more than anything else. Bell halts the Geordie charge but Sanderson can't even make it back to her stool now and collapses on her knees sobbing her eyes out in the proccess. Even the ref is concerned about the ammount of blood coming from the redhead's nose but since we're in Newcastle, he's not gonna do much about it! 

Round 6: 

"Don't ya quit on me now, ######! C'mon, get up so I can send you to a plastic surgeon!", Chezza wants the fallen actress to continue and that's perhaps understandable as Nikki shows enough courage to avoid losing this one on default and rises up for the sixth despite her face being rendered into one giant swollen & bloody mess here. She lifts her gloves but remains swaying on her feet and there's absolutely nothing she can do to prevent Cole bashing her face right in now... the slaps crashing off Sanderson's cheeks are even too hard to listen to and more blood comes spilling out onto the canvas before the one minute mark... Nikki's soaked up so much punishment it's almost hard to imagine but there's the end to every road and when Chezza switches into uppercuts on the jaw to snap the head around back & forth one more time, it's all over... NIKKI GOES FACE-FIRST ON THE CANVAS and there's no need to start the count as the redhead's been well and truly destroyed here... Brutal KO6 Cheryl Cole!!! 

AFTER: That's one of the best wins of Cole's entire career and a true far cry from her epic horror show against Jade Thirlwall last December. But there's not gonna be a rematch anytime soon as the singer clearly states: "Jade can suck it now! She's a tramp no matter what happened last year. That skinny cow will never match my status around Newcastle and the whole damn country! And here's the really good news! I'm going all American from now on! Yep, you've heard it here first... OK, so maybe I told van Outen a word or two... yeah, I see your goofy smile there, Denise! I've head enough of people rising to the flyweight championship while ducking ME, the most glamorous UK singer there has ever been since Samantha Fox! Boo! Boo! Enough is enough! Since I even got passed on for the Independence Day PPV while some Dutch and Czech models received the call, I don't care anymore! I'll make that jump alone myself and all you Nadine Coyles and other ######s can blow me! And as a special farewell, I'm gonna maul Nikki Sanderson a little further so she has something to remember me from!" 

Chezza's rant comes to an end but this is only when Nikki's post-fight humiliation begins as the singer drags the semi-conscious actress back to center of the ring smearing more blood over the canvas in the proccess, rolls her on her back and comes sitting down on her face riding it for a while in effort to bring some of Nikki's awareness back... "You're out cold, bytch? I hope you're not cause you've still got some lickin' to do first! Or shall I rearrange your face for free now?" 

Coach Gina Wild removes the brunette's gloves and Cheryl begins to dig the bare knuckles into Nikki's busted up face until the redhead screams out indicating she hasn't passed out yet. This might be a really painful revenge for what happened during the Mr. Marcus Invitational last spring as Cheryl wants her fallen rival to lick both her feet and ass as she applies the reverse facesit and buries her tattooed derriere right into Nikki's face who has no choice but to slurp the flesh out while Cole adds more pressure on her windpipe and claws some jugs too. Nikki doesn't even have the strenght to kick out and remains buried under all the tattoos as Cheryl cranks her neck and smothers into unconsciousness after the butt licking comes to a sudden end. And the girl is truly out of her senses now... 

Cheryl gets up and orders her personal bodyguards to carry the battered and bloodied redhead back to the hotel room where she will resume the punishment whenever Sanderson regains her senses but the biggest news coming from the Grudge Sessions is the singer's decision to make the move onto American soil where she's desitned to join old BBU enemies in Samia Ghadie and Roxanne Pallett but also encounter a rash of brand new opponents to further boost her stock after a failed effort on the US X Factor a three years ago. "At least nobody's gonna question my accent now!", says Cheryl waving back to the crowd and for once Denise van Outen has to agree with the snarky operator. 

Will we ever see Cheryl Cole back in BBU again? She never said she won't be back and just as is the case with Ghadie or Pallett, it all depends on the exposure and money earned overseas. Cheryl's done it all on this side of the pond spare the unfortunate title opportunity snub and has nothing left to prove. OK, so maybe Jade Thirlwall can say she chased the 'other' girl from Newcastle away now but it doesn't make it anymore underwhelming for Chezza. Good luck in America! 

Final result: Cheryl Cole def. Nikki Sanderson KO6.
