Before: (Piped in Live from Manchester) Casta in a confidence builder - nothing physically wrong with the French beauty after her one punch dismissal to Liz Hurley, but handlers don't want Laetitia's tender psyche put to the test tonight. Brook coaxed into the ring despite not being in the gym or training regularly - Kelly one of the worst managed fighters in Britain, relying on her right hand and buxom charm to get her through this one. Casta in royal blue bikini, white fleur de lis print, Brook in black push up, paisley bikini bottoms.

During R1: Casta going about her business - methodically circling, touching Brook hard jabs in the first minute - fitting in right hands to the body midway through and turning over the hook to wobble Kelly's butt. Mop up last minute - Casta beating a covered up Brook at the ropes, just shifting her hips and shellacking Kelly's trembling waistline to the bell with both mitts. Shutout Casta.

R2: Lapse in concentration for Laetitia - hinky from the Hurley shot? Brook able to kiss Casta's chin an early right hand that has Laetitia stepping out and retreating - Kelly walking Laetitia down big-girl, swinging the right whether it lands or not, often picking up comeback hooks on the cheap. Kelly with insolent cuffing of Casta's jugs - just swatting away lefty on 'em as Laetitia backs away.

R3,4: Casta shakes it off, starts executing with hard-hearted intensity. Laetitia able to work flat footed, stepping to and around her girl, never hurrying or rushed - Brook's off balance, pressured, not getting off. Casta just touching Kelly the jab - enough to keep brunette defensive, then placing right hands to the body, threading 'em between Kelly's gloves - Brook getting banged around the ring, eventually winding up on the ropes, hands up high, inviting Laetitia to go at her midsection. Sturdy work being done downstairs as Casta lowers her head and swings away two handed - she's applying a comprehensive coat of leather to her girl through 4.

R5: Casta boxing smoothly, stepping around her girl, prepping her with jabs, placing clean right hands - Brook lumping up nicely, scowling back with a put-upon expression but not doing much to answer. Down the stretch, girls lean into simultaneous right hands and CASTA'S LEGS GIVE A SHIMMY! Laetitia walking away to her right after impact, steps in a fence post hole - delayed effect as she staggers, rights herself, covers up as Kelly hops in. Brook with some big swinging lefts and rights, breasts heaving side to side - Casta reaching in around the waist to tie up hurt at the bell.

R6: Kelly out brawling in the first minute - Casta easing back out of range, stepping to the right - she ends the rally with a single right hand bolt on the chin, placed in between Brook's lashing haymakers. Kelly stepping off a little curb, stumbling around - Casta patient as she steps right, slicing in another right hand over Brook's left shoulder and drifting her to the ropes. Lots of time on the clock, Laetitia bellies up to the bar to indulge. Casta extending her mitts to knuckle up, measuring her girl, then swinging hard to the body, turning her hips into the shots, then propping Brook back up. Kelly showing quit, eyes forlorn, not punching back - Laetitia just pouring it on a defenceless opponent. Casta able to push up and go underneath with 2 and 3 thumping right hands to the ribcage, push up again and go to the right side with digging multiple lefts. On and on, Laetitia just shoveling on the hurt - Brook just guzzling leather. At the bell, Brook's a blubbering wreck, stumbling to her stool and immediately shaking her head - she's had enough. TKO6 via submission Laetitia Casta.

After: Pretty much what the doctor ordered - Casta getting to be a bully, really heaping it onto an undertrained, unprepared Kelly Brook - good for the French girl's morale. Give Kelly 6 weeks in a disciplined camp and who knows - maybe she can fight. Right now, she's a punching bag for girls like Laetitia.
