Intro:
First time clash here as Kendall Jenner tests herself against the best in Italy. Valentina Fradegrada has become the face of Italian boxing over the past few years. Will it be Kendall moving back towards the lightweight title picture or will it be Valentina showcasing her talents?
The build up to the bout saw Kendall keeping surprising quiet by her standards. Just telling the media at the arena "Valentina is a solid fighter. I want to try something new and well I mean she is a national champion. Let's see if she is truly world level." Before walking away to go to her locker room.
Valentina on the other hand tells her national press as they do a piece on her "Kendall is a top fighter in her own right but I am simply better then her. I have been showing the world that us Italian fighters are taking over. I am proud to be our champion and will add a world title to my legacy." Showing her confidence going into the fight.
