Intro:
We are live in the Copper Box in London for a battle of the youngsters. Dafne Keen made her debut last month defeating Rashida Jones by knockout in six rounds after a scare of being put down. Charli meanwhile wasn't so lucky in her debut back in August of last year, losing to Maddie Ziegler in five rounds. Will Dafne continue to be undefeated or will Charli surprise some and take home the win to America?
While Dafne didn't say much in the build up, just telling the FCBA Networks Alicia Atout as she entered the arena "I am looking forwards to getting rounds under my belt. Charli will be a different test to Rashida but I expect to come out on top." Nodding to Alicia before she walked off, keeping things simple as she doesn't seem the most outgoing person.
Charli on the other hand is the polar opposite. She posted a video on TikTok of her working out, then on her social media she says "Dafne Keen you only beat on some old granny in your debut, please I could have done that. Instead now I get to kick your ass and show why I should be in a stable being trained, unlike you or that weirdo Millie (Bobby Brown)."
Fight night, first to step onto the aisle is Dafne with her coach Ming-Na Wen and her stablemate Ivana Baquero. She leads them down the aisle with a serious expression, showing she isn't taking this fight lightly. Stepping into the ring to a cheer from her supporters. Dafne is wearing a black sports bra with gold trim, matching trunks and shoes, black gloves, her hair is in a ponytail to complete the look.
Here comes Charli now with big sister Dixie and her coach behind her. Dixie yelling "Dafne is getting f**ked up!" To the crowd as she points at her younger sibling. Charli getting a loud cheer too from those who follow her social accounts. She climbs through the ropes wearing a pink sports bra, matching trunks and shoes, black gloves with pink thumbs, her hair is also in a ponytail. She flexes her arms with a chuckle as she stares right at her opponent, who doesn't bat an eyelid to her.
The fighters are brought to the center of the ring by the referee. Charli telling Dafne "these people want to see me knock you out and you can't do anything about it little girl." Dafne glares at her but doesn't say anything. Instead she hammers her gloves into Charli's when they are asked to touch gloves. Charli staring angrily back at her as she watches Keen walk away from her. Soon both are in their corners ready to start 10 rounds of flyweight action.
Round 1:
"Ding!" Off they go to a cheer from the fans. Exchanging jabs with a few flurries thrown in, bouncing on their toes as they try to set the early pace. Charli lands a crisp double jab into the face of Dafne to knock back her head, just missing with a right hook as Keen steps back out the way in time. Dafne gets inside to pounding in a few body shots in response before she is pushed back.
A little too keen ironically from keen as she steps in with a left hook that finds air, Charli counters with a right counter into her opponents cheek. The American seeing the opening to strike with a follow up jab/straight square into Dafne's face to knock her back to the outside part of the ring. D'Amelio starting to open up more on the defensive Dafne. Keeping her pressed back near the ropes.
Under forty seconds to go. Dafne needing to deflect a straight on her left glove, stepping in with a straight to the chest of her foe. Both going toe to toe in close range as Dafne looks to force the issue, Charli happy to stand her ground as both hiss when being hit. The bell rings with both returning to their corners with Charli already showing flashes of her potential, Dafne a little subdued for her coaches liking as they discuss the early action.
Round 2:
Back out they come with both landing more combos out the gate. Wanting to hammer each other back, Charli again starting the faster with that extra height advantage helping out. Peppering the cheeks of Dafne when she moves side to side. Dafne catching her with a few clean hits around her body.
That could have been a trap as Dafne catches Charli over the top with an overhand left to her jaw. Landing a straight into the social media stars nose to make her cry out as Charli backs off. Dafne not wanting to give her room is in tight to her, banging away with her right glove at the torso so her opponent. Charli giving Dafne a nudge back to reopen the space between them.
While Charli lands several good clean punches as Dafne leaves herself a little too open. Dafne dips under a jab to step in with a right hook to the ribs of her foe. A left into her belly button to make D'Amelio grunt as she is pushed back a step. The round soon ends with Dafne marching back to her corner with a more happy looking Ming-Na waiting for her. Charli meanwhile taps her gloves together in annoyance.
Round 3:
Things are a little scruffy between them as they exchange in closer range. Both clinching after they bump bodies when both try to swing in hooks. Referee needed to break them up as they grit their gumshields. Resuming with Charli landing a crisp double jab into the forehead of Dafne to snap her head back.
Pushing back Dafne as she starts to put together her punches better. Charli looking confident as she herds her opponent around the outside part of the ring. Dafne trying to match Charli but on the outside it is the American looking more comfortable. Dafne needing to move her upper body more to dodge so she can get some rhythm going with her own punches.
Late in the round Charli is able to pin Dafne to the ropes after landing a straight to her chest. Dafne shelling up as Charli swings in hooks to try to break her down. Charli grinning as she is on the attack, not looking worried at all, even as she is hit with a few straight punches to her face when she is too open. The bell rings with Charli jogging back to her corner with a smile.
Round 4:
Resuming with Charli looking comfortable as she is on her toes. Landing a few crisp shots around the chest of Dafne to make her grunt. Problem is that she is leaving her left low and as Dafne sidesteps a jab aimed at her chest, she lands a clubbing right onto the ear of Charli to make her stumble a step to the right.
Suddenly as if a switch has been turned on Keen's back to get her up another gear; she is whacking Charli back to the ropes with a flurry of punches to her face. Charli clinches up with Dafne when her back touches the turnbuckles of her own corner. Some redness on her left cheek showing as Dafne snarls into the ear of D'Amelio before they are split apart.
Charli lands a few stiff jabs when they resume but she doesn't look as confident. A jab catches her on the nose, opening her up to a right hook on the chin to twist her head around. Dafne driving Charli back to the ropes as the influencer is shelling up. The bell rings with Dafne jogging back to her corner to be met with an approving nod from her coach. Charli meanwhile is stewing on her stool, mood not helped when Dixie tells her "don't let that little girl push you around sis!"
Round 5:
Resuming with Charli looking a little less composed as she is loading up more on punches. Dafne soon catches her across her nose with a left hook, blood trickling from the nostrils of Charli as she looks worried. A straight lands on her nose to make her yelp as her guard has disappeared. DAFNE BASHING HER TO HER FACE TILL CHARLI GOES TO HER RIGHT KNEE HOLDING HER GLOVES UP AS IF TO TELL DAFNE TO BACK OFF!
Dafne walks to the neutral corner with an ice cold fury aimed at her opponent. 1...2...3...4... Charli wipes her nose with her right glove. Seeing blood on it as tears fill her eyes. 5...6...7... Dixie urging her sister to get up and fight. 8... Up gets Charli as she nods to the referee that she wants to fight on. Gloves up looking ready to go.
They start fighting again with just under two minutes to go. A jab quickly finds its way onto the bloody nose of D'Amelio again, she howls out in agony before a right smacks across her face as her guard is nonexistent. CHARLI TURNS HER BACK WAVING HER HANDS AS THE REFEREE STEPS IN. SAYING THAT CHARLI HAS QUIT!
Winner Dafne Keen TKO Round 5
After:
That's win number two already for Dafne in just under a month of her career. She jogs back to her corner to be met with an embrace by Ivana, while Ming-Na pats her on her left shoulder while paying her compliments for stopping Charli.
Who has her sister Dixie checking her before the coach gets a chance, Dixie yelling to the Girls Friday corner "that girl is a savage! She could have broken my beautiful sisters nose! We have contracts to worry about!" As Dafne and her corner crew all look wide eyed at the outburst. Ivana simply laughs at Dixie as Dafne looks at her and starts chucking.
Charli is crying as her nose is being patched up in her corner by her coach. Who assures her it isn't broken, just going to be sore the next few days. Dixie looks relieved as if Charli has dodged a bullet and will recover from something deadly serious. She hugs her sister after Charli gets tissue paper plugging her nostrils.
Dafne on the other hand gets a drink of water. Is told by Ming-Na that the training still has a while to go before she will feel confident throwing Dafne in with any real contenders. Ivana keeps gazing over at the opposite corner and chuckling at the melodrama she is seeing.
Out the ring goes Charli with Dixie putting her right arm around the shoulders of her baby sister. Telling the crowd to screw themselves as some ask for autographs. Charli is learning the hard way that boxing truly does hurt, even for celebrity fighters.
In the ring Dafne gets her right hand raised by the referee to applause and cheers. Dafne blows a few kisses to the crowd but is keeping her emotions mostly in check. Stepping out the ring moments later with her crew so they can go to the Girls Friday locker room.
The assistant manager of the Girls Friday stable Melanie Sykes is asked for word on Dafne's future plans. After praising her fighters performance, Melanie adds "we hope to have Dafne back in the ring either in two or three weeks time. We have signed a deal for her to fight Emma Chamberlain. Who gave Billie Eilish a headache on her debut, maybe she will give Dafne a bit of a test as we hope." Clearly they are not taking it slow with Dafne. Maybe the success of the likes of Millie Bobby Brown is showing the new wave of young fighters how to tackle the FCBA. Still Dafne will have to be careful she doesn't get burnt out in a year of her career.
