Australia’s Tilly “The Dog” Bell successfully defended her WBC Australian Light Heavyweight Championship with a commanding unanimous decision victory over previously unbeaten Tahlia Roddan in the co-main event of Capital Combat Pro Series 2.
The championship bout was a highly anticipated rematch following the pair’s first encounter, which ended in a hard-fought draw. This time, however, Bell produced a decisive performance to leave no doubt about the outcome.
Displaying sharp technique, composure, and championship experience, Bell controlled the action over the course of the contest, consistently finding success against the determined challenger. Roddan entered the bout with an unblemished professional record and pushed the champion throughout, but Bell’s superior ring craft and effective scoring earned her a unanimous points victory on the judges’ scorecards.
The win marks Bell’s first successful defense of the WBC Australian Light Heavyweight Championship and further strengthens her standing as one of Australia’s leading MuayThai athletes.
For Roddan, the defeat represents the first loss of an otherwise impressive career, while Bell’s performance underlined why she remains the rightful holder of the prestigious Green and Gold belt.
Congratulations to Tilly “The Dog” Bell on another outstanding performance and a successful defense of the WBC Australian Light Heavyweight Championship.
