0:00:02 > 0:00:07This programme contains strong language and some violent scenes
0:00:07 > 0:00:09Beautiful, you look great. Nice.
0:00:12 > 0:00:15Nice. Nice.
0:00:15 > 0:00:18I can't do you justice, you're so beautiful.
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Ultimately, people want to see you brawl.
0:00:26 > 0:00:30They want to see people slugging away and bleeding and...
0:00:30 > 0:00:34They want to see, they want to live through us and feel barbaric
0:00:34 > 0:00:38through the fighters in the cage.
0:00:41 > 0:00:45Once this gate closes and is locked,
0:00:45 > 0:00:48you have nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51You can only move around,
0:00:51 > 0:00:54and if you go up against the cage you can't get away.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58So you have to know how to defend yourself inside here
0:00:58 > 0:01:01under the rules of mixed martial arts.
0:01:01 > 0:01:06No head-butts, no eye gouging, no biting, no groin shots,
0:01:06 > 0:01:10but a lot of other really cool things, including punches,
0:01:10 > 0:01:14knees, elbows, jump kicks, flying knees. Take down, single leg,
0:01:14 > 0:01:18dump somebody down, get on top and pound them.
0:01:18 > 0:01:23They can flip you over, you can get arm barred, choked, leg-locked.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27So many things can happen inside the cage once that gate closes.
0:01:39 > 0:01:44There's not one person that can say, "No, I don't like girl fights".
0:01:44 > 0:01:48It's better than guys. I mean, you see guy fights all the time.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52Finish her! Finish her! Finish her now!
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Girl fights, it's something different.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00You spend your whole life ordering the same thing off the menu,
0:02:00 > 0:02:02and then one day, it's like,
0:02:02 > 0:02:05I'm going to try something different!
0:02:05 > 0:02:08That's what girl fights are, something different.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12I broke her nose, I might throw that in there!
0:02:13 > 0:02:18So that's nice she beat me and I broke her nose! It's a fair trade.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29It's the best feeling ever, absolutely.
0:02:29 > 0:02:34I mean, you walk into a ring cage, going on there, you know,
0:02:34 > 0:02:38soon as they say, "Fight!" Whoa, straight in there.
0:02:40 > 0:02:45It really is the best feeling, the biggest buzz you could ever get.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Nice, that looks great.
0:02:47 > 0:02:52Another five seconds four, three, two, one... freeze.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56I studied for a Math's degree at Cambridge University,
0:02:56 > 0:03:00went on to do a PhD in theoretical computer science in Manchester,
0:03:00 > 0:03:04and then I decided I wanted to fight for a bit, so here I am.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07I love fighting. When it's going well,
0:03:07 > 0:03:10there's no feeling like it in the world.
0:03:13 > 0:03:18Now! Hit her! Oh! Oh! Oh! And again!
0:03:18 > 0:03:23Keep position! Hammer! Oh! Oh! Oh! Hit her, Rosi!
0:04:10 > 0:04:14Today's the big day. We're going to erect the cage,
0:04:14 > 0:04:18it's going to be brilliant. Lenny's worked really hard on it.
0:04:18 > 0:04:23It's a substantial piece of kit, weighs a ton, that's why we've got
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Big Dave to give us a hand and a couple of other lads.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33I love the size of this gate, 'cos if there's any injuries
0:04:33 > 0:04:37you can get the paramedics in, the stretcher bearers.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Len's never seen a cage. He's made it just from
0:04:40 > 0:04:44my sort of artist's impression, which ain't right good!
0:04:44 > 0:04:48Do you know what I mean? It's good. And wife will be pleased.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Some people buy 'em diamonds, necklaces and stuff like that.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56I've got her a cage. Not many blokes can say that!
0:05:01 > 0:05:04I've known Lisa for about 18 years.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08We've been together 14 years. She always had the drive.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11She were in the gym five, six times a week,
0:05:11 > 0:05:14where guys would do once or twice a week.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18She stuck with it, and she were the only female in there.
0:05:20 > 0:05:25The natural things that Lisa's got, her mind, she's very strong minded.
0:05:25 > 0:05:31She's got very, very quick reflexes, and a natural ability to fight.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36A lot of people say that Lisa, pound for pound,
0:05:36 > 0:05:38is the best fighter in the world.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42Yeah, I mean I was about 16
0:05:42 > 0:05:47and going for a job interview
0:05:47 > 0:05:52and just going through Leeds Market,
0:05:52 > 0:05:55and just got grabbed.
0:06:00 > 0:06:05Meant that... I got away and...
0:06:05 > 0:06:07and just thought, you know...
0:06:07 > 0:06:11I went home, had a bit of a, bit of a cry, what have ya,
0:06:11 > 0:06:15sorted meself out and thought, do you know what,
0:06:15 > 0:06:18I really need to... know what to do,
0:06:18 > 0:06:19I need to...
0:06:19 > 0:06:20I can't just...
0:06:20 > 0:06:25You know, I need to be able to look after myself.
0:06:29 > 0:06:34I have to do something physical, because it was a physical attack.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36It needs to be something...
0:06:39 > 0:06:41..fight based, really,
0:06:41 > 0:06:45'cos that's what I'm doing, fighting back, really.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53At the moment Lisa's not speaking to me much at all.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57She's getting herself into the zone ready to fight,
0:06:57 > 0:07:02and anybody who coaches and trains their wife will tell you the same.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04It's not all lovey-dovey.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07I absolutely adore her, love her to bits.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10And at the moment I think she might possibly like me
0:07:10 > 0:07:13under different circumstances.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17We can have some fall outs during training, definitely.
0:07:17 > 0:07:22But, usually speaking, at end of day in gym I'm the boss.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24At home, Lisa's the boss.
0:07:24 > 0:07:29I've been at it longer, got a lot of fight experience meself.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33I'm not just stood there glory hunting for John Higo.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36I'm there to make everything right for Lisa.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40And Lisa is the most dedicated fighter
0:07:40 > 0:07:43I've ever had the pleasure to work with.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Mum's going to a different country.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Wait, I think I know which country it was. France.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55Yeah, she's going to France and we're staying at Nana's
0:07:55 > 0:07:58and she's having a fight in France.
0:07:58 > 0:08:03She's had more fights than she did a couple of years back.
0:08:03 > 0:08:09She's only lost one fight and she's won loads, really.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12What if Mum gets knocked out?
0:08:12 > 0:08:15We'd be quite sad about that, wouldn't we?
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Tell me how much you know about this girl in France?
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Fatima? She knows her stuff.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27You don't get to become European Champion by being rubbish.
0:08:27 > 0:08:32She's French-Moroccan. Usually, the French-Moroccans can fight.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35They are scrappers, a bit fiery.
0:08:35 > 0:08:40They're not afraid, out of the foreigners, of taking a liberty.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43They're not. It goes with the culture, I think.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45It's in the Latin blood.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48They're not like us Anglo-Saxon people,
0:08:48 > 0:08:51all sort of stand up, fair people.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54It's amazing, innit? I'm here rubbing a woman down
0:08:54 > 0:08:57that can't stand me at the moment!
0:09:04 > 0:09:08Don't want to be mum when I'm about to step into a ring.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13I need to drop them off
0:09:13 > 0:09:17and switch into a different mindset, really.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20SHOUTING AND CHEERING
0:09:23 > 0:09:27- Hello.- I've only brought one. - What's up with other fella?
0:09:27 > 0:09:29- Oh, he's here!- He's here!
0:09:29 > 0:09:33I was so upset when I saw your eye last time.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35I didn't like that at all.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38I really didn't.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42I'm not up for it at all, no matter what you're getting for it.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46If you was getting a lot of money for it I could understand it then,
0:09:46 > 0:09:50probably think, oh, the money's drawing you into it.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53You two are going really bonkers.
0:09:57 > 0:10:01I don't honestly think it does you good getting blows to the head.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03You've nothing to worry about.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06I love her, and if I see her in trouble in a fight,
0:10:06 > 0:10:10the towel's going straight in, followed by me.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12- Guys give me a kiss, I'm off.- No!
0:10:13 > 0:10:15- Kiss!- Love you.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19I love you, too.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27- I'll give ya a ring. - See you later.- Right.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45How do you do? Cheers.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47- Fatima.- Yeah, fine.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49SHE SPEAKS FRENCH
0:10:52 > 0:10:55She was twice French champion,
0:10:55 > 0:10:58professional champion.
0:10:58 > 0:11:04HE SPEAKS FRENCH
0:11:04 > 0:11:08Two times our gold medal winner of the European Championship.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15When you first sort of see her,
0:11:15 > 0:11:20you know, in the flesh, as it were, yeah, you start having a look.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23Look at her arms, look at her legs, look at her abs.
0:11:28 > 0:11:34In the ring tomorrow is somewhere I need to kick the shit out of her!
0:12:06 > 0:12:10I want her to know the physicality of fucking with us, OK?
0:12:10 > 0:12:15Let's fucking spoil their night, fucking sour their wine.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19That's what we're going to do. We hate the fucking French, OK?
0:12:19 > 0:12:21We fucking hate the bastards.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Slaughter.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Yeah? Get focused.
0:12:25 > 0:12:30We do things that no other fuckers do that's why we are the best.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33There's probably a load of rigmarole and messing about,
0:12:33 > 0:12:37fucking anthems and shit, and all that, right?
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Just zone out, yeah?
0:13:00 > 0:13:06FRENCH NATIONAL ANTHEM
0:13:06 > 0:13:08CHEERING
0:13:12 > 0:13:14OK, Lisa, you know what to do.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20OK, Lise, box her frigging head off!
0:13:22 > 0:13:28That's it, tear her up, rough her up! Take her into the trenches!
0:13:28 > 0:13:32Right, tighten your knuckle! She's gun-shy, she's gun-shy!
0:13:32 > 0:13:35Chase her! Look at her, she's fucked!
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Lisa, she's running all the time.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42Stalk her, Lisa, stalk her, break her heart.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47APPLAUSE
0:13:47 > 0:13:51All you've got to do is get that big shot through and she will wilt,
0:13:51 > 0:13:55she will wilt. Turn round, go do what I say!
0:13:57 > 0:14:00Step in! Get that fucking jab!
0:14:00 > 0:14:05Excuse me, thank you. Excuse me.
0:14:11 > 0:14:16Me face says it all. I've been walking around on fucking eggshells
0:14:16 > 0:14:20for fucking two months with her. Putting up with all kinds of shit,
0:14:20 > 0:14:24been working my arse off, rearranging everything in my
0:14:24 > 0:14:26fucking life to get her here,
0:14:26 > 0:14:30she could have won that fight, and she fucking give it away!
0:14:30 > 0:14:35That does my head in! She gets beat, she gets beat, she gave it away!
0:14:35 > 0:14:39The girl was running scared! We knew that the French people
0:14:39 > 0:14:42would take liberties to gain an advantage.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45There were no way that that fight would go nine rounds,
0:14:45 > 0:14:49but she had to keep on grabbing hold of her fucking leg!
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Throw it, don't hold her leg!
0:14:53 > 0:14:57Do not get hold of that leg again. Go out here and throw some kicks.
0:14:57 > 0:15:02Do not grab that leg again, you're finished, do you understand?
0:15:02 > 0:15:06I don't fucking care! Don't do it again!
0:15:06 > 0:15:08CHEERING
0:15:08 > 0:15:10You're going to blow this!
0:15:10 > 0:15:14That girl is not in her class, and she threw the fight away.
0:15:14 > 0:15:19All we had to do... Did the French girl get any fucking points deducted
0:15:19 > 0:15:23for kicking Lisa in the bleedin' fanny? No, did she fuck!
0:15:23 > 0:15:26CHEERING
0:15:28 > 0:15:30Own fault!
0:15:33 > 0:15:37MC SPEAKS IN FRENCH
0:15:37 > 0:15:41APPLAUSE
0:15:55 > 0:15:57I'm more upset for him.
0:16:01 > 0:16:06He... he puts up with a lot just so that I can do this.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10And then... just let him down.
0:16:42 > 0:16:46'Too fucking annoyed, Lise. You give 'em their excuse.'
0:16:46 > 0:16:51- 'John, I didn't do it purposely.' - 'You did it though, didn't ya?
0:16:51 > 0:16:57'You didn't do a single thing... Don't fucking argue with me about it.
0:16:57 > 0:17:01'You didn't do a single thing that I fucking asked,
0:17:01 > 0:17:04'not a single thing. Your boxing was atrocious.
0:17:04 > 0:17:09'We knew we were playing away from home, and your boxing fucking stunk.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13'You looked like some fucking coke head from fucking York.
0:17:13 > 0:17:17'It stinks. And you want to go in the cage in America?
0:17:17 > 0:17:20'You're going to get fucking slaughtered
0:17:20 > 0:17:22'unless you fucking frame up.'
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Hips in. Good, down.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Hips in, come on!
0:17:43 > 0:17:45Hips, hips, hips, hips!
0:17:45 > 0:17:48Do not give it up. Yes!
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Fucking excellent!
0:17:53 > 0:17:56I'm not sure about the technique but it went up!
0:17:56 > 0:18:01You pick her up like that, I don't give a fuck what it looks like.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04As soon as I get word there's a fight coming up,
0:18:04 > 0:18:09the world looks different. Suddenly its got meaning,
0:18:09 > 0:18:14because you're going to be out there in front of thousands of people
0:18:14 > 0:18:18with somebody trying to take your head off. So... that...
0:18:18 > 0:18:20focuses the mind.
0:18:20 > 0:18:26You never feel quite as alive as you do when you're in the ring.
0:18:28 > 0:18:33This is my fight with Wendy, a lot of shouting and screaming going on.
0:18:33 > 0:18:38I went for a take down, and basically the way we twisted
0:18:38 > 0:18:41I accidentally broke her leg.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44She's fought twice since, though.
0:18:44 > 0:18:50It wasn't career ending, which I'm extremely happy about.
0:18:50 > 0:18:54People get knocked out, people get choked unconscious,
0:18:54 > 0:18:57people do get their arms broken.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01MMA is basically a combination
0:19:01 > 0:19:06of all the true combat sports. If I'm out of this range,
0:19:06 > 0:19:08I've got all me punching tools.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12Long reach striking. I can kick to the legs, inside and outside,
0:19:12 > 0:19:16to the body, and the head, which I'm far too old for.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19You move in a bit closer, you've close range punches,
0:19:19 > 0:19:23also your elbows, take downs take Anna down like this,
0:19:23 > 0:19:27go straight into ground and pound, and can drop the body and arm.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30You want to get this force into a shot.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34A heel hook, take the hand back, the elbow in, elbow on top.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38By the time she feels any pain here, the knee can be completely out.
0:19:38 > 0:19:43The blood choke is probably the most efficient way to finish a fight.
0:19:43 > 0:19:49Just push into this, breathe in and she's going to go to sleep.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58She did a lot of music. She achieved grade seven cello,
0:19:58 > 0:20:02grade eight piano and then she went on and did a diploma in piano.
0:20:02 > 0:20:07And she played with the Reading Youth Orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall.
0:20:18 > 0:20:23She was offered a place at Trinity College Cambridge to read Maths.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25Nothing pleased her more,
0:20:25 > 0:20:30especially since the school suggested she was a bit ambitious in applying.
0:20:30 > 0:20:34Her PhD graduation at Manchester...
0:20:34 > 0:20:39consistent theme that runs through Rosi's life is winning.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42I mean, Rosi obviously has a need to win.
0:20:42 > 0:20:47A physics teacher has commented, "Rosemary has a meticulous approach
0:20:47 > 0:20:52to her studies and nothing short of perfection satisfies her."
0:20:52 > 0:20:56She ends by saying, "I wish her happiness in her future studies."
0:20:56 > 0:21:01It's interesting that she should say that, because probably
0:21:01 > 0:21:05happiness is something that can be difficult to attain with
0:21:05 > 0:21:10a person who is seeking perfection, because the very fact that you're
0:21:10 > 0:21:13seeking perfection means that you never achieve it,
0:21:13 > 0:21:18and so therefore you can never be completely happy, doesn't it?
0:21:20 > 0:21:24Come on, middle of the dot, every one accurate,
0:21:24 > 0:21:28get your fucking hands up. This girl's bigger than you,
0:21:28 > 0:21:32she's going to come out down the middle every time. Are you ready?
0:21:32 > 0:21:36Look at me like you're ready, you want to go out there
0:21:36 > 0:21:38you're going to enjoy it.
0:21:39 > 0:21:40Yeah? Fight.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45Time. Corners. Stop feeling fucking sorry for yourself.
0:21:45 > 0:21:50Get your hands up, get in, what was all the stand up for?
0:21:50 > 0:21:53I want you to switch from striking to grappling,
0:21:53 > 0:21:57from clinch into some double leg, single leg, give that up,
0:21:57 > 0:22:01- go to strike it. Get on with it. - I can't do it.- I haven't done all
0:22:01 > 0:22:04this work for three months for you to feel sorry for yourself.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Get in there! When you're ready...
0:22:07 > 0:22:11Now you're cooking. That's the machine, Rosi, that you are
0:22:11 > 0:22:15It takes two rounds for you to wake up. Ha, there you go!
0:22:15 > 0:22:17There's your shots, kid. Time.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Whatever's coming at you now you've gotta deal with.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25You do this every time, "Oh, I'm not good enough, whatever".
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Yes? Look at me like you fucking...
0:22:27 > 0:22:31like you're listening to me, like you believe in me, OK?
0:22:31 > 0:22:36Cos I need to go in there knowing you can do it as well, right? Yes?
0:22:38 > 0:22:41Hates me right now.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45She hates me right now.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Let's skate, then!
0:22:49 > 0:22:52CHILD CRYING
0:22:52 > 0:22:56CHILD LAUGHING
0:22:56 > 0:22:59On the one hand people look at us and say,
0:22:59 > 0:23:03"It's great you understand each other,
0:23:03 > 0:23:08"you've got a shared interest", and that's true to a degree.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12I think trying to have a relationship with somebody
0:23:12 > 0:23:17who doesn't understand that, has its own difficulties.
0:23:17 > 0:23:22But when you've got two people who are both passionate about
0:23:22 > 0:23:27what they do, and dedicated to what they do and focused on what they do,
0:23:27 > 0:23:30I think that makes it very, very hard.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34And sometimes when I fight, I do feel that you've got
0:23:34 > 0:23:39the weight of two people's hopes, dreams, ambitions, expectations...
0:23:41 > 0:23:43..on your shoulders.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47And... I definitely felt that before my last fight.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52I mean, Karl's always says the right things.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56It's, "Yeah, you're doing it for you, it's not about me".
0:23:56 > 0:23:59He makes the right noises.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02So we both know that it's a lie. It's a necessary lie,
0:24:02 > 0:24:06but it's a lie just the same and there is that pressure there.
0:24:30 > 0:24:35This is probably the most important fight of my career right now.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39It's on a big show with a lot of people watching, a very tough fight.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43Rosi is not an easy opponent. I haven't fought in two years.
0:24:43 > 0:24:48I tried to get a warm up fight and I couldn't get anyone to fight me,
0:24:48 > 0:24:53so have to step up to, I think, one of the best fighters in the world.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55I definitely think that I can beat her.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57I'm very prepared,
0:24:57 > 0:25:01whether the fight goes on the ground, standing, clinch, wherever.
0:25:01 > 0:25:06I'm a complete fighter, so I'm totally prepared to fight.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08I'm into clothes and shoes,
0:25:08 > 0:25:13that's my other passion, is clothes, besides fighting!
0:25:13 > 0:25:17I'm not a girl in the ring. When I fight, I fight like a man.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21But outside of the ring, I'm a girl. Being girly in the ring's a weakness.
0:25:21 > 0:25:26If I was in the ring, in the cage, and afraid to get hit, weak and meek,
0:25:26 > 0:25:28that's a weakness,
0:25:28 > 0:25:32but I don't think outside of the ring being girly is a weakness.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36Attack my leg, attack my leg, Go! Go, go, go, go! Yeah, good!
0:25:36 > 0:25:39Go, go, go!
0:25:39 > 0:25:42Yeah, yeah! Good! Go! Yeah, go hard, go!
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Yeah, right, go! Yeah go, go, go, go!
0:25:53 > 0:25:56Time. Good.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01I'm confident, I feel good. I feel better right now than
0:26:01 > 0:26:03I ever felt in my entire life.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07I think I'm going to knock her out in the first round.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09That's what I think, I hope.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17That's the best situation. I'm training for a war!
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Everybody's excited to see the British girl.
0:26:31 > 0:26:36We're all used to seeing the Royals, You know? It's going to be insane.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40The security's going to have an interesting job tonight,
0:26:40 > 0:26:43cos people do get kind of enthusiastic.
0:26:43 > 0:26:48I'm glad I'm up here and not down there! Like jumping in a shark tank!
0:26:57 > 0:27:01Debi Purcell versus Rosi Sexton, to me, it's a beautiful dynamic
0:27:01 > 0:27:07between a woman who's come through academia and then Debi Purcell,
0:27:07 > 0:27:12who's an absolute showwoman and a great fighter in her own right.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15I think that women's fighting, like women's tennis, women's golf,
0:27:15 > 0:27:19women's gymnastics, it should be accepted.
0:27:24 > 0:27:29Obviously I'm thinking about the fight, what if this happens,
0:27:29 > 0:27:33what if that happens, running through game plans in my mind.
0:27:33 > 0:27:37Winning just gives the sense just for a few minutes of just everything
0:27:37 > 0:27:40being all right with the Universe.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44I remember I was dropped from my primary school netball team,
0:27:44 > 0:27:48apparently because I wasn't aggressive enough,
0:27:50 > 0:27:52which I find quite funny now!
0:27:57 > 0:27:58I'm excited.
0:27:58 > 0:28:03I'm a little nervous but I'm more excited than nervous, which is cool.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07- You ready?- I'm so ready.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10Nobody gets a free path in life,
0:28:10 > 0:28:16you're going to have ups and downs. It's weird, my mom retired and went
0:28:16 > 0:28:20to Costa Rica at a very early age, and I was a teenager at the time,
0:28:20 > 0:28:24and I was pissed because my parents sold everything when they moved.
0:28:24 > 0:28:29I was like, "What? You can't just leave and do that". And she did,
0:28:29 > 0:28:33an amazing woman. When she got diagnosed with brain cancer,
0:28:33 > 0:28:38and they gave her six months to live, she was so happy she did her dream.
0:28:38 > 0:28:43And that's the biggest lesson that I've learned, it's like I just...
0:28:43 > 0:28:45I want to do my dream. That's it.
0:28:55 > 0:28:56This sounds strange,
0:28:56 > 0:29:01but I think there's a sense that the other things I did,
0:29:01 > 0:29:06Maths, music, whatever, just weren't quite hard enough,
0:29:06 > 0:29:10didn't involve enough different aspects of me.
0:29:10 > 0:29:15Fighting stresses other aspects of me that those other things didn't.
0:29:15 > 0:29:18I think going back to when I was a kid,
0:29:18 > 0:29:22it wasn't so much the shyness, it was being afraid...
0:29:22 > 0:29:26and just being, being afraid of people.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29If I get really, really good at everything,
0:29:29 > 0:29:33then people will like me. I think the thing that I've got out
0:29:33 > 0:29:38of fighting though is that I've learnt a lot of things about myself.
0:29:38 > 0:29:43It's enabled me to look at all these parts of myself and even
0:29:43 > 0:29:47just to be able to say what I'm saying now.
0:29:47 > 0:29:51I think the experiences I've had have really helped with that,
0:29:51 > 0:29:55cos it's given me an insight into how I tick.
0:29:58 > 0:29:59OK. great.
0:30:01 > 0:30:05Look toward these cameras, toward the camera.
0:30:05 > 0:30:11Women's MMA is definitely going to be as big or bigger than men's.
0:30:11 > 0:30:17Two hot women out there fighting, there's just, there's nothing better.

0:30:59 > 0:31:01Or who's going to whip each other's ass.
0:31:01 > 0:31:04Most of it's boring until somebody explodes.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09It's kind of addicting.
0:31:15 > 0:31:20We just saw a guy get kicked in the head and dropped to the ground,
0:31:20 > 0:31:23he got back up and he's still in the fight.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26He's not doing too well right now though!
0:31:26 > 0:31:30- We haven't seen women fight. - That's going to be pretty awesome.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36Move inside, now, now you've got that look, now you've got it.

0:43:14 > 0:43:21That's probably the, that's probably the hardest girl, the only girl I've ever fought that hit that hard!
0:43:21 > 0:43:24I would say that girl's probably a little bit out of her...
0:43:24 > 0:43:26that girl's pretty good.
0:43:30 > 0:43:33This ice feels really good!
0:43:33 > 0:43:37And how do you feel when you see Tammie get beaten like that?

0:44:33 > 0:44:38give you all the glory tonight as we fight, and we win and we lose, all the glory goes to you, Lord.
0:44:38 > 0:44:43I am 20 years old, I'm pretty sure I'm the youngest one
0:44:43 > 0:44:49in the tournament, and I'm pretty used to always fighting women that are much older than me.
0:44:49 > 0:44:55A lot of times when I first started I was fighting women that were 40 years old, you know, and they can fight,
0:44:55 > 0:44:59they've got that mum strength that I always joke, they used to call me the old lady beater!
0:44:59 > 0:45:01You ready? Let's fight.
0:45:01 > 0:45:02BELL RINGS
0:45:06 > 0:45:10I'm only capable to do this because God has given me the gifts he has.
0:45:10 > 0:45:16I'm not in a wheelchair, I'm not, you know, sickly, I'm not bed ridden, and I get to go out there every day
0:45:16 > 0:45:18and glorify God and give him all the praise for what I do.
0:45:18 > 0:45:23For me to go in there and know that I have someone watching my back, I know that I won't get hurt.
0:45:23 > 0:45:29It's totally why I do it and it just makes me feel so safe in there and, no matter what happens.
0:45:29 > 0:45:31Hit her, hit her, and again!
0:45:31 > 0:45:35Now hips in, hips! And hit, oh!
0:45:35 > 0:45:39And again, now up again, stand up. She's cooked, she's cooked.

0:45:42 > 0:45:45Oh, and again! Hit... posture, posture...
0:45:47 > 0:45:54Lisa. Listen to me, clear the hand off, work that, come on, we're there, the side hand, Lisa.
0:45:54 > 0:45:57Step up, step up, good and again. Cross face.

0:46:19 > 0:46:21OK, I'm going to say it one more time, right?
0:46:22 > 0:46:25It's not a fucking performance till it's over, we've agreed on that.
0:46:25 > 0:46:28You've got one more fight. Don't get cocky. I don't work with cocky fighters. Now let's go, come on.
0:46:28 > 0:46:32Hey? That's it done now, beautiful shots, right?
0:46:32 > 0:46:35Keep your fucking hands up, smartarse. Clean her elbows, John!
0:46:36 > 0:46:43That was more like a man out there than a woman with that class, but she was tough, she was strong...
0:46:43 > 0:46:47Yeah, she was very tough, and I give her all the credit in the world. She does great training so...
0:46:47 > 0:46:50I hope to see her go far. I hope to see her go all the way and take that belt.
0:46:54 > 0:46:55BELL RINGS

0:47:04 > 0:47:10Angela Magana, she looks great.
0:47:10 > 0:47:15Very skilled, very determined and very confident,
0:47:15 > 0:47:18not afraid to stand up and throw.
0:47:18 > 0:47:21This is very personal for these two women.
0:47:21 > 0:47:26Win or lose for either one of them, someone's going to go home very unhappy.
0:47:37 > 0:47:39I'd like to knock her out, I'd like to...
0:47:39 > 0:47:42I know I have the power, I don't give up.
0:47:42 > 0:47:48I don't ever give up because winning's not always about the actual winning, it's about never
0:47:48 > 0:47:51stop trying, die trying, that's me, I'll die trying.
0:47:51 > 0:47:54I guess you could say it might be, people would think it
0:47:54 > 0:47:59would be typical that I would have grown up to be a fighter, from the circumstances that I was in.
0:48:02 > 0:48:06My mum and dad were both heroin addicts.
0:48:06 > 0:48:12I was born addicted to heroin. She then tried to be a mother and a heroin addict at the same time.
0:48:14 > 0:48:17I've been grazed with the bullet that shot my mother in the neck
0:48:17 > 0:48:20at the age of, I think I was three or four, I still remember it.
0:48:20 > 0:48:23Mother was so high that she didn't even know she was shot.
0:48:26 > 0:48:29You know, I hope my mum is up there looking down on me seeing
0:48:29 > 0:48:32what I'm doing cos the last thing she knew, I wanted to be a doctor.
0:48:47 > 0:48:50CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:48:50 > 0:48:56Stay safe. I want you to get in the pocket a bit more. She's fucked. Look at her. She can't stand, right?
0:48:56 > 0:48:59You need to go two inches more in and let your long shots go, yeah?
0:48:59 > 0:49:01- You got me? Can you do it?- Yeah.
0:49:01 > 0:49:04- Well, come on then. Let's see it, yeah?- Box and take her down, OK?
0:49:04 > 0:49:06It's your game after that, you understand?
0:49:06 > 0:49:08OK, drink.
0:49:08 > 0:49:10Angle, every time, yeah? Show you're ready, she's fucked. Let's go.
0:49:10 > 0:49:13Come on, Lis, on your toes.
0:49:13 > 0:49:16Come on, we came to fight, let's go!
0:49:16 > 0:49:18Take that off there, John.

0:49:24 > 0:49:27Good knee there in the guts. Hit, hit, hit. Oh!
0:49:29 > 0:49:31And hit her. Now on her, Lis, pressure.
0:49:31 > 0:49:33She don't want to be in here.
0:49:33 > 0:49:36This is your round, right hand, step to your right, Lis,
0:49:36 > 0:49:40right hand, every time she lifts her leg, every time, baby, come on.
0:49:40 > 0:49:42Stand her up, stand her up.
0:49:42 > 0:49:48Hit her, Lisa sprawl your legs out, sprawl, sprawl back, Lis, push her head down.
0:49:51 > 0:49:53BELL RINGS
0:50:00 > 0:50:0830-27 and 30-28, for your winner and G Fight champion, Lisa Higo.
0:50:08 > 0:50:11CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:50:28 > 0:50:33Tonight, Lisa joins a very elite club of two other women
0:50:33 > 0:50:37who defeated three women in one night,
0:50:37 > 0:50:45I'm going to let them do the honours in presenting you this belt, your new champion, Lisa Higo.
0:50:45 > 0:50:47CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:51:01 > 0:51:04I couldn't fuck up like I did in France. I couldn't fuck up at all,
0:51:04 > 0:51:09that was just shit, that was really shit, I had to,
0:51:09 > 0:51:14you know, there were a little bit of, little bit of France in me today, got me a little bit...
0:51:14 > 0:51:17"I'm not doing that again, I'm not doing that again." You know,
0:51:17 > 0:51:22that loss helps, that loss helped me do something here today, you know.
0:51:22 > 0:51:25Not just that but that,
0:51:25 > 0:51:27it played a part,
0:51:27 > 0:51:29it definitely played a part.
0:51:38 > 0:51:42Now I know what I'm going to look like if I ever get lip injections!
0:51:42 > 0:51:45It's fun man, I just had fun.
0:51:45 > 0:51:47I'm winning in my head just by being here.
0:51:47 > 0:51:52It didn't hurt when she hit me, nothing really dazed me but I have a really hard head, so...
0:52:03 > 0:52:05Give us a kiss.
0:52:07 > 0:52:10It's nice to see you, love, anyway,
0:52:10 > 0:52:12all black eyed!
0:52:12 > 0:52:15- You should have seen the others! - Oh, yeah. You should see the others!
0:52:15 > 0:52:23You know me. I bruise very easily anyway, so it's nothing, nothing too bad. Honestly, it's not.
0:52:24 > 0:52:26Do you like that?
0:52:28 > 0:52:30I think it weighs nearly as much as you.
0:52:34 > 0:52:38Even though you're bruised, you look quite perky.
0:52:38 > 0:52:41I'm so pleased you're home, so pleased you're home.
0:52:43 > 0:52:45Don't go again, love!
0:52:45 > 0:52:48Why can't you just quit while you're on top?
0:52:48 > 0:52:52Just say, "That's it. I've done it now, let's retire."
0:52:52 > 0:52:56When it's a thing that big somebody's going to want it back, aren't they?
0:52:56 > 0:52:59Yeah, they didn't want it going out. At all.
0:52:59 > 0:53:02I think it's very odd, I really do.
0:53:02 > 0:53:04Or something too...
0:53:06 > 0:53:08It's too butch,
0:53:08 > 0:53:11you know, it really is, it's not feminine, is it?
0:53:13 > 0:53:18I couldn't thump somebody if I tried, I couldn't, I couldn't hurt somebody.
0:53:18 > 0:53:21I couldn't.
0:53:21 > 0:53:25I don't know why you enjoy it so much. I don't understand it at all.
0:53:25 > 0:53:29- I don't do it because I like hurting people.- Well why do you do it?
0:53:29 > 0:53:34Cos I'm testing my skills. It's all right saying you're doing it for self defence,
0:53:34 > 0:53:38but how do I know that my self defence is going to work when I need it, if I don't test it?
0:53:38 > 0:53:41- You don't have to keep doing it all the time!- Well, I know, but it's a bit addictive.
0:53:41 > 0:53:43Well, I don't think so, no.
0:53:45 > 0:53:47Just stop.
0:53:47 > 0:53:50There'll come a day when you'll just decide you've had enough, I hope,
0:53:50 > 0:53:53and I hope you do it before you get hurt.
0:54:01 > 0:54:03I haven't slept!
0:54:03 > 0:54:05I'm tired.
0:54:11 > 0:54:17Rosi, yeah look, you've got this fixation with the ankles right now, it's the least point...
0:54:17 > 0:54:20I could grab his little toe, come on Rosi.
0:54:25 > 0:54:28Knee away, knee away.
0:54:28 > 0:54:30Knee away!
0:54:32 > 0:54:35Knee away, slide the knee this way.
0:54:35 > 0:54:38No, this way.
0:54:38 > 0:54:41I'm going to say what I think and that's...
0:54:41 > 0:54:45Yeah, I want, I want the information but at the moment it sounds like
0:54:45 > 0:54:48this is what you do, you're doing everything wrong,
0:54:48 > 0:54:52and I've been finding that very hard to deal with right now.
0:54:56 > 0:54:57Let's just try and accept.
0:54:59 > 0:55:01OK, so we're going to try and fix it again.
0:55:03 > 0:55:05And then tomorrow and the next day.
0:55:05 > 0:55:08Say, I'm OK, I'm willing to do it.
0:55:08 > 0:55:09Yes.
0:55:09 > 0:55:11OK, I'll try and think before I speak.
0:55:11 > 0:55:13OK.
0:55:15 > 0:55:19Shall we do this one then I disappear, I suppose. Is that it?
0:55:24 > 0:55:26I think most people find it difficult
0:55:26 > 0:55:33spending time with an ex partner, I think especially when that time is in such a high pressure environment,
0:55:33 > 0:55:37under those conditions, it's erm...
0:55:37 > 0:55:39it's not easy, it's not easy for anyone.
0:55:42 > 0:55:44So he's become an ex partner?
0:55:47 > 0:55:49Yeah.
0:55:49 > 0:55:54Don't want to get too much into the relationship side of things, especially not right now.
0:55:56 > 0:55:58And do you have to decide
0:55:58 > 0:56:01whether you want results or...happiness?
0:56:05 > 0:56:09I think if I didn't care about the results, then it would be easier to be happy.
0:56:11 > 0:56:12Maybe, I don't know.
0:56:16 > 0:56:19But the thing is if I didn't get the results I wouldn't be happy anyway, so...
0:56:26 > 0:56:29I don't like losing.
0:56:29 > 0:56:31I really don't like losing.
0:56:36 > 0:56:40The fights don't come easy, and we don't get paid a fortune, you know.
0:56:40 > 0:56:46Basically, it covers expenses, that's it, there's nowt left over.
0:56:46 > 0:56:48It's a struggle, there's no dough.
0:56:49 > 0:56:56Lisa is a real top class British athlete, yeah?
0:56:56 > 0:57:02The Prime Minister doesn't know about her, the general public do not know about her.
0:57:02 > 0:57:08There's no Olympic sponsored athlete that trains as hard
0:57:08 > 0:57:13as Lisa, she's a top class athlete, admittedly in combat sports.
0:57:13 > 0:57:18Someone runs round a track and gets made a Dame.
0:57:18 > 0:57:22Lisa wins two world titles in the same night,
0:57:22 > 0:57:24nobody really wants to know.
0:57:24 > 0:57:29I don't think we'll be in the Queen's Honours and stuff like that, we probably won't get
0:57:29 > 0:57:33Sportsman Of The Year, and really and truly, we deserve it.
0:57:33 > 0:57:39Lisa Higo from Leeds Cage went over to America.
0:57:39 > 0:57:45To me the best in the world at 115 pounds.
0:57:45 > 0:57:50She went over there as a complete underdog, cos the Americans
0:57:50 > 0:57:55always think anybody who's not an American can't win.
0:57:55 > 0:58:01Yeah, it's true. And she came back G Fight World Champion. Big round of applause for Lisa.
0:58:01 > 0:58:04CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:58:11 > 0:58:15It does take me by surprise with what I've done,
0:58:15 > 0:58:16and what I'm capable of.
0:58:19 > 0:58:24It really is the best feeling, the biggest buzz you can ever get.
