Before:

The opening fight of the night sees two top bantamweights looking to further their cases for a title shot. Fates’ Brie Larson has seen herself go from a relatively obscure fighter to one of the premier bantamweights since she joined Fates in April, breaking into the top 10. Her opponent, Priyanka Chopra, has been a familiar face in the FCBA and has built up an impressive career in a short time frame. The press conference that they had was brief, but sweet, as both women complimented the other’s achievements and abilities as fighters – not to mention the fact that unlike all of the other pairings tonight, it seems like the two women don’t actually hate each other.

Come time for the fight, the crowd settles down quickly as soon as Brie Larson is announced. The actress from California is wearing a purple sports bra with white trunks and matching gloves, her hair tied up in a ponytail for the fight. Then her opponent is introduced and Chopra is wearing a blue top with matching trunks and white gloves, her hair up in a bun for the event. The two receive their final instructions, tap their gloves, and the bell rings.

Round 1:

Both women cautiously exit their respective corners and start circling each other as they look to get a read on their opponent. Chopra and Larson exchange a pair of jabs that bounce off the other’s guard as they circle. Priyanka baits in Brie with a right, but Larson sees the left coming and gets out of the way before popping a quick left of her own into Chopra’s chin. The Indian actress recovers and gets some blows of her own in, but her American counterpart smartly keeps her guard up and only counterpunches when she sees a clear opportunity. Larson backs off and the two women begin circling again. Chopra looking to keep up the pressure on Larson and darts in on the blonde, but Brie again senses Chopra’s movement and launches a right that catches Chopra in the chin again, and now it’s Chopra’s turn to back off. Neither woman commits hard in the final seconds of the round and the two go back to their corners after a fairly mellow opening round. It was a close one, but Brie takes the opening round on points, close.

Round 2:

The second rounds begins much like the first – both women taking their time in going after each other, but this time, they don’t fully circle each other. Chopra and Larson seemingly agree to divide the ring on a diagonal, and don’t cross that line, even as the two start feinting. Brie strikes out first with a right jab that bounces harmlessly off of Chopra’s guard and the actress fires back with two straights, the first bouncing off of Larson’s own guard and then the other working around the blonde’s protection and connecting with her ear, but the blonde doesn’t budge. Chopra starts to string her punches together, but she can’t break down Larson’s guard and starts trying to find Brie’s body instead, closing the distance between the two fighters and crossing that imaginary diagonal line in the ring. Priyanka stutter-steps and raps off two quick punches into Brie’s body and the blonde can only manage a single jab that glances off of Chopra’s guard and into her shoulder before the bell rings. This match has been a close affair through two as Priyanka Chorpa matches Brie Larson by taking the second round on points, close.

Round 3:

Chopra charges out of her corner and catches Larson flat-footed and throws out a lightning-quick right straight that catches the younger woman in the nose. A drop of blood trickles out of Brie’s nose and Priyanka senses blood in the water. The Indian actress fakes left, then goes right and catches Brie flush in the chin with a right jab and Larson is staggering backwards as on comes Chopra. The crowd starts warming up after a slower opening two rounds and now Priyanka connects with another right and knocks Brie into the ropes and she would have knocked Larson down with that one if the ropes didn’t hold the blonde up. Chopra is going to town and all Larson seems to be able to do is to hold on as she clinches. The referee separates the two women and there is more blood leaking from Larson’s nose, but nonetheless she is the one who goes after her opponent and while Priyanka rebuffs her offensive, Larson does enough to prevent the round from being won by Chopra by shutout.

Round 4:

The Fates staff cleans up Brie in the corner, getting the blood of her face before the fourth begins. Priyanka once again looks to gain the upper hand and comes out swinging, opening the round by connecting with two absolutely massive hooks to Larson’s chin – but somehow Brie takes them in stride, much to the surprise of Chopra, and comes back with fury. The blonde shuffles to her left, sticks Chopra in the chin, then ducks the counterpunch and goes right into an uppercut that gets all of Priyanka’s chin – and now its Chopra’s turn to take the blow in stride and surprise her opponent. Priyanka focusing on Brie’s body until the blonde slips away. Brie feints left, then fires off a right that freezes Chopra for a brief second and allows Larson to connect with a second uppercut and the bell rings with Priyanka still standing! Brie’s look of exasperation tells the story of the Fates corner as even though she wins the round wide with good punches aplenty, her foe is still standing.

Round 5:

Larson jumps out of the Fates corner – and immediately gets whacked by Chopra when the blonde overcommits to a right and exposes herself to a counter. The blonde may have been on a hot streak but her relative inexperience just showed itself and Chopra goes straight for Larson’s face again, trying to land a straights to Brie’s nose and start the bleeding again. Larson takes a right off the cheek that drives her backwards in the ring and the blonde is reeling, doing her best to counterpunch but Chopra is just moving too fast. Each time the Fates fighter looks for a counter, the window of opportunity has closed and she leaves herself exposed to her opponent. Priyanka buries a devastating counterpunch into Larson’s chin, wobbling the blonde and causing her to hold on to her opponent until she regains her footing and pushes back. Larson able to get back into it after she hangs back and lets Chopra be the one to initiate, counterpunching her opponent with the blonde scoring some clean strikes, but at the end of the round, Chopra clearly wins over the judges.

Round 6:

Brie and Priyanka start out the second half of the fight by circling each other in the dance that they start off the fight with, only this time, they’ve sized each other up and are circling much more quickly. Chopra splits Larson’s guard with a right and then goes body with the left before backing off. Brie continues to circle and takes Priyanka’s next blow off her guard without any issues and strikes Chopra back with a right of her own. Priyanka swings at Brie with a left but the blonde ducks it and goes straight into Priyanka’s body, driving the older woman backwards. Chopra trying to fight back but the blonde works efficiently and gets Chopra into the ropes, but can’t keep her there for three seconds before the veteran Chopra escapes. Priyanka gets a pair of solid rights into Larson’s body, but that’s all she gets before Brie gets back in control and chases her around the ring until the round ends.

Round 7:

The toll of the previous six rounds shows on the two actresses as they take a bit longer than usual to get out of their corners after trading the past several rounds. Larson fires off a straight a Chopra and the brunette parries the blow before coming back with a left hook that catches Larson flush in the face. Priyanka closes in on Brie AND GETS WALLOPED BY A RIGHT! The blonde wasn’t fazed by Chopra’s left and absolutely smoked the veteran with a right cross. Chopra on wobbly legs as she holds her guard up and Larson just lays into the older woman’s trunk, occasionally sending a blow into her guard, just to keep Priyanka honest. Chopra straightening back up despite the onslaught and Brie buries three quick rights into Priyanka’s tummy and the Indian actress drops to the ground! Brie quickly to a neutral corner as the ref begins to count. One. Two. Three. Chopra’s breathing heavily, looking up at the official. Four. Five. Six. Priyanka on all fours. Seven. Eight. Chopra’s looking to push herself up and reaches for the ropes – but she falls back down! The referee counts to ten and calls for the bell. It’s over by KO7 – your winner is Brie Larson!

After:

Larson smiles and waves to the crowd before checking in on Chopra. Brie kneels down and asks Priyanka if she’s alright, which she nods to before patting Larson on the back. Brie smiles and heads over to the post-fight interview.

“Well, I just wanted to come out here and do my best, to be honest.” Larson says. “Priyanka’s a great fighter, and I’d been looking forward to the fight for a while. At any rate, it’s great to kick off the card tonight, and I’m definitely looking forward to the rest of the matches tonight.”
