Artistic License – History: While much of the information about Elizabeth Wilkinson is scarce, the general consensus is that she went undefeated as a boxer her entire career, due to there being no evidence to the contrary (such as none of her opponents in her famous back-and-forth, trash-talking newspaper ads mentioning anyone beating her as an insult). Here, she has the sorts of struggles common to many sports protagonists, including losing an early fight.

Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Zig-zagged. Elizabeth does get a black eye, a bloody nose, or just a general battered appearance at various points, but it's not applied consistently. For instance, her training sessions with James Stokes involve her taking many blows to the face on successive days, but her face never shows marks from them.
