Just came back from this fight. Bronwyn started out well, pressing forward behind jabs, double jabs, and a nice mix of uppercuts to the body and head. Raika fought back well starting in round 2, which was close. I had Bronwyn winning rounds 3 and 4, and Raika taking every round after that, though some were very close. Raika tended to land the more powerful shots -- mostly wide hooks to the body and head -- and hurt Bronwyn a bit in the body late in the fight. Still, Bronwyn pressed forward most of the fight and hung in there, winning over the local fans.
Judges had it 98-92 and 99-91 for Raika (I had it 97-93 for Raika).

After the fight, Raika said her right hand had been landing well in training, but she couldn't
hit Bronwyn with it because of her unorthodox stance.
