Coleen and Rebekah to battle it out in the ring

Inspired by the pointless money-grabbing exercise that was the fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson, we have been told Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy have decided to stage their own boxing match.

In a move that's possibly less violent than their infamous Wagatha Christie court case, the two footballers’ wives will go toe to toe live on TV.

The TV rights to the fight – due to take place at 3am in a locked-in pub in Wigan - have been bought by Sky Sports for £1.50.

“We’re both up for it,” said an excited Rooney, who is married to one of the worst football managers in Plymouth. “And there’s no chance of either of us getting a split lip because there’s too much collagen in there.”

“She’s dead,” added Vardy. “And I’ve asked my agent to drop my phone into the sea so my training doesn’t distracted.”

Bookmakers have Vardy as the 5-1 favourite compared with 16-2 for her rival.

“To be honest, they both look so similar we could probably get away with claiming the loser had won,” said a spokesman for Padded Power.
