Before: Sturges back in the ring after a long layoff--Paul not expected to struggle with the rusty blonde as a result. Shannon made her mark on the WB’s “Savannah”, where she routinely ran Jamie Luner out of the ring in battles on the set, but Luner got the promotional boost after that show while Shannon sank into relative obscurity. Sturges looking to change all that with a win over highly regarded Paul tonight. Tight, scoop front t-shirts and panties for both women: navy blue for Shannon, red for Alexandra.

During R1: Rude awakening for Alexandra Paul as she finds a strong, determined opponent in the ring with her., Sturges moves forward bobbing and weaving, coming out of her crouches to hurl hard single hooks to the body of Paul. Alex pokes out the jab, but can’t find the mark and finds herself fighting off the ropes for much of the round. Good pressure round for Sturges.

R2: Paul fades to the ropes once again as Shannon feasts on the brunette’s ribs. Midway through the round, with Paul covering up and rolling with punches, Sturges swipes at the brunette’s ear, then POUNDS her ribs with a perfect double left hook, leaving Alex cringing in pain. Sturges smirks as she slugs way with both hands to the slumping brunette’s gut. Paul dazed and confused at the bell as Shannin walks back to her corner beaming.

R3: Alex gets it going this round, pumping out a double jab to finally intercept the blonde coming in. Paul with good lateral and backpedaling movement steers Sturges with the jab and boxes to take the round. Shannon seems impatient to finish, but Paul has recuperated well and isn’t as vulnerable as the blonde seems to have thought.

R4: All Alexandra Paul as she takes Shannon’s lunch money this round. Lighting the blonde up with the lead right cross, Alex rips off a stunning 6 punch combination, culminating in a skull jolting left hook on the square jaw of the blonde to wobble Shannon for the first time in the bout. Sturges glassy eyed, stumbles around the ring, trying to close distance, but Paul toys with her, smacking and poking with the jab, leaning in to tie Shannon up, then leaning away to score with trailing left hooks to the chops, Alex back in control, raises a confident glove to the crowd at the bell.

R5: Paul leaning forward, hands loose in front of her, embarrasses Shannon with hand speed. Paul will rotate or slowly circle her gloves then viciously swipe at the blonde’s face while Sturges seems too sluggish to counter. Paul content to clinch whenever Sturges moves forward, and the blonde can’t punch her way out. Showboating finally minute from Paul as she bolo punches Shannon ala Sugar Ray Leonard to earn, jeering boos from the crowd.

T6: Alex comes out with the stick and move, but Sturges’ serviceable left hook finds the mark this round, thumping heavily to the right side and ribs of the brunette. Midway through the round, another left to the ear--left to the ribs combo has Paul in difficulty, and Sturges turns up the heat. Churning her fists into Paul’s trunks and tummy, Shannon straightens and bangs a left hook crisp and clean off Paul’s chin and ALEX GOES DOWN! Paul seems frozen and slowly sinks to all fours as Shannon dances away. AND PAUL CAN’T BEAT THE COUNT!! Stunning KO6 for Shannon Sturges who overcomes a boxing lesson to hand out her own diploma to willing pupil Paul..

After: Sturges proclaims herself to be back, and issues challenges to a frightening list of strong celebrity fighters. Paul badly shaken by the tune up loss, sinks to possible journeywoman status as a result.
