Eagle lands a blow then looks to greener pastures in rugby Braided bout ... Lauryn Eagle, right, and Nadine Brown connect. WITH a second Australian sporting title to her name, Lauryn Eagle has revealed her Olympic ambition after becoming Australia's first female lightweight champion, beating Nadine Brown at the Sydney Entertainment Centre on Wednesday night. Eagle won a unanimous eight-round bout, 80-72, 78-74, 78-74 against a willing Brown, with her boxing crown adding to her multiple national water-skiing titles. But as NRL star boyfriend Todd Carney watched on, Eagle said she might join her partner on the football field, eyeing a spot on Australia's rugby team that would signal the end of her boxing career. "I love sport," Eagle said. I want to try and get to the Olympics. I'm looking at possibly playing rugby sevens because they are looking for a team. So, who knows, I might end up doing more than two sports. I said to myself to put in 100 per cent in this fight and then get out of the sport. It's not ideal for females. I think I have to defend this belt, and then I'll see where it takes me. Brown started the bout as the aggressor, pushing the tempo in the opening round striking Eagle's body. That game plan continued throughout the fight as she looked to cut down Eagle's reach advantage. Brown upped the tempo again in the second round, landing a clear right hand on Eagle's chin midway through the round before a fierce flurry of punches to Brown's head and body had Eagle finishing the round the stronger. The braided fighters were literally unable to be separated in the final stages of the third round when Eagle's left hand became caught in the back of Brown's top with referee Anthony Shipley having to untangle the pair. "I was a little bit nervous coming in," Eagle said. I only got her footage two days ago, and I was a little bit frightened coming in. I've got heart but I'm still working on my skill. I knew she would put pressure on me but I just had to stay on the front foot. Again as Eagle backed away, Brown kept leaning and pushing the tempo of the fight, shortening Eagle's reach advantage. The win was Eagle's sixth in 10 bouts since turning to the sport after a successful water-skiing career in 2010, when she won a world formula two title. The title was Eagle's second major crown after winning the World Boxing Foundation female super-featherweight title last year before relinquishing the belt to pursue an Australian championship. Brown is yet to win from her past three bouts. In the opening fight, Steve Lovett beat Jeremy Allan, with all three judges scoring the fight 57-56. Total votes: 28364.
