The way we live now Raging Belles
Miss Nicky Monroe
'Beautiful but Deadly' v Klondyke Kate 'Hell in Boots'. The two top women wrestlers in Britain contend for the British Ladies Championship Belt.
In the blue comer - Klondyke Kate. At 15, she ran away from home to train as a wrestler. Kate weighs in at 20-stone and she's the villain of the ring - a jeering, aggressive fighter the crowds love to hate. At home, on a Liverpool council estate, she cares for her 2-year-old son, Adam. In the red corner -
Nicky Monroe. She comes from a Bournemouth wrestling family and has fought from the age of 17. Slim and feminine, she's the favourite of the crowds. Outside the ring she does nursing community work in Rhyl with the elderly.
In the weeks before the Championship, nerves become taut. It's all set to be a hard, unsparing fight.... Photography
