The Championess of Clerkenwell tells the thrilling and inspiring tale of Elizabeth Wilkinson, one of the earliest recorded female bare-knuckle boxers. Known for her skill, courage, and defiance of social norms, Elizabeth fights her way to the top of a brutal and male-dominated sport.
As Elizabeth rises to prominence after defeating her rival Martha Jones in a heated rematch, she becomes more than just a fighter—she becomes a symbol of women's strength and tenacity.
However, being a champion brings not just fame, but also immense pressure and personal sacrifice. Faced with an ever-changing sport and the toll that fighting takes on her body and mind, Elizabeth wrestles with whether to retire or continue in the ring.
Her internal battle intensifies when she faces younger fighters like Annie Bell, who are eager to take her crown. As Elizabeth fights for her legacy, she must also navigate her personal life, including her deep bond with her supportive husband, James, who urges her to consider leaving the sport for good.
This powerful story explores themes of resilience, the cost of glory, and a woman's quest to define herself in a world that constantly challenges her right to exist. Elizabeth’s journey is one of grit, passion, and an unwavering desire to be remembered, both as a champion and as a pioneer.
