Arlene Blencowe vs Leslie Smith

Leslie Smith was made her second trip to the Bellator MMA cage Friday night in Thackerville, OK. Having come out victorious in her first fight earlier this year, a win over former title challenger Arlene Blencowe could line her up against the winner of Julia Budd and Cris Cyborg in January.

Blencowe, meanwhile, was looking to improve on the two-fight win streak she had compiled since losing to Budd for the second time at Bellator 189. While it wasn’t official, the fight was essentially a number one contender’s bout.

Smith’s dirty boxing and clinch work was the story of the first. The second saw plenty more back-and-forth. Smith landed kicks to the leg, body, and head, though the latter were at least partially blocked. Blencowe would get Smith’s attention with a right hand, but it was the ‘Peacemaker’ who continued to walk her opponent down for the bulk of the round. In the final thirty seconds, Smith closed the distance, looking for the clinch once more, but this time, Blencowe wisely escaped.

The third round opened with both women still very much in the fight. Smith, again, walked her opponent down, but Blencowe’s jab was working again, hitting home with regularity. Smith soon bullied her way into a clinch, however, looking to land a trip. Blencowe stayed standing, however, but Smith refused to let go. The takedown wasn’t there, however. Instead, the remainder of the fight would play out on the feet, Blencowe working the body, working her jab, and staying cool under fire.

Arlene Blencowe Valuable Experience

Blencowe recalls that she “learned a lot about myself both during the fight camp and the actual fight with Julia Budd.”In what was a slow start to the year with not being matched for an MMA fight and world title boxing fights falling through, I was excited to finally be matched with such a quality opponent.

Six weeks out from the fight I suffered a training injury where I tore my MCL and ACL in my right knee. I was absolutely devastated. I spent a total of that day bedridden before that got the better of me. The next day I hit the swimming pool for what was a slow 2km swim with having to drag my bottom half behind me as I couldn’t kick.

That next week I concentrated on upper body and core exercises to keep me active and my mind busy. By the second week I was managing to get up on my feet and with heavy strapping could get pad-work and bag-work in.
