Charlize Theron vs. Sophie Marceau 19-Jun-2000

 

Marceau drawn into the Theron/Bell rivalry, getting huge paydays and exposure as a result, but fighting major American talent back to back a big risk. Sophie claims she matches up better against Theron, citing a lack of meaningful inside game from Charlize whereas Bell has a plan B. Theron scoffs at the assertion, telling Marceau to wait till after the fight to judge - fought in Paris in front of a hysterically pro-Charlize crowd. Marceau in black bra, laced up the front, pink bikini bottoms, hair up - Charlize in white push up, white aerobics briefs.

 

Round 1: Marceau trying some home run potshots, twisting her body into flashy haymakers but missing as Charlize calmly leans away behind a high guard. Round settles down into Marceau undulating up and down, touching Charlize to the belly with the right while sizing up the left. Theron trying to keep her lead foot outside of Sophie's and drop the straight right hand down the middle. Feeling out round goes as a draw.

 

Round 2: Sophie getting into her rhythm, circling now, bending her head below waist level to slip jabs and countering with a wide left POUNDING THERON'S CHEST and mouth. Punches look like slaps, but they're catching Theron from weird angles and adding up. Late in the round, Sophie nimbly steps outside Theron's lead foot, steps in and drops a hard double left onto the blonde's face, stampeding her to the ropes. Shutout Marceau.

 

Round 3: Theron learning early she doesn't want to box with wily Marceau, telling her corner Sophie can't hurt her - comes out in the third to brawl. Theron throwing caution to the wind, windmilling her fists and putting her long body in behind crashing blows - fists bouncing hard off Marceau's shoulders and back as she desperately rolls with the incoming. Late in the round, Theron's pressure finally cracks Sophie's composure: a hard left on the teeth momentarily stuns Marceau along the ropes and Theron leans into a cracking right cross on the teeth at the bell.

 

Round 4: It's on! Theron brawling, Sophie brawling - the two graceful sluggers stand and swing, trading bashing, long armed licks as neither gives an inch toe to toe. Marceau gambling, bends into wide left hand roundhouses midway through which smack Charlize' mouthpiece off her teeth. Theron standing behind her guard, stops punching as Sophie piles on, lifting her fists from her hips into the blonde's stomach and chest. Big Marceau round actually has some Parisians cheering for her as Theron comes up cut in the mouth.

 

Round 5: Method to Charlize madness as she continues to come forward, forcing the French girl to fight. Bitter, spanking exchanges see Sophie wilt and retreat, turning her shoulder towards Charlize as she backpedals. Theron scooping with the hook, chases Sophie to the ropes and it's a brutal bell to bell pounding - Sophie covering up, bending at the waist and soaking up hellacious punishment as Charlize swings away. By the final minute, Marceau is drifting, leaning forward off the ropes as Charlize lifts smashing lefts and rights into her body, then chicken wings a forearm against Sophie to push her back for more. At the bell, Marceau may be out on her feet, helped to her corner as Theron nods at handiwork.

 

Round 6: More Charlize punishment - more last stand heroics from Marceau. Theron twirling combinations in, keeping them nice and tight, smacking her fists up and down Sophie's sides, then giving the girl a shoulder to buck her back. Marceau's eyes unfocussed, legs shot - she's never taken a beating like this and she just sits on the ropes, taking to the body, taking to the head as Charlize gets off with snapping lefts and rights. Sophie battered to a pulp at the bell and once again slow to respond to the break - she mumbles 'oui' when asked if she wishes to continue.

 

Round 7: Charlize taking a blow - Marceau's eyes closed to slits shuffles around the blonde as the girls reach in with long jabs. Marceau still shaky on her legs as round goes as a draw.

 

Round 8: Charlize just taking control, pounding back Sophie's face with the jab, then chasing with hooks and crosses when Marceau collapses to the ropes. Sophie still punching back in spurts, keeping her gloves on her face, rolling into the ropes, and coming back at Charlize with little chopping counters to avoid the stoppage.

 

Round 9: Charlize just pouring it on - a wide double left hook stuns Sophie again and she reels to the ropes, turning her body as she steps back to deflect Theron's vicious haymakers. All along the ropes, Charlize steps with her victim, clipping uppercuts when Sophie swoons forward, going with straight arm lefts and rights to the ribs when Marceau leans back into the ropes, stamping the French girl with withering power shots that should be, but aren't, KOs. Theron bashing away with lefts and rights, then shouldering her girl back, asking the ref. to take a look several times as Marceau simply lolls on the ropes, taking abuse.

 

Round 10: More savage action from Theron as she rips the uppercut to Marceau's chin to drape the French girl on the ropes early. Marceau just getting trash-canned - Theron working lefts and rights to the waist, then on up to the head, but she can't put the French girl down. Finally at the midway point, Charlize is arm weary and accepts the clinch as Sophie walks her out of the corner. Mid-ring, Marceau begins to mount Macho Jr. like attacks with the left hand, bending her legs and steering her FIST ONTO THERON'S BRA - THERON IS HURT! A SMASHING LEFT CATCHES FLUSH TIT AND CHARLIZE LEAVES HERSELF WIDE OPEN AS SOPHIE'S RIGHT RICOCHETS OFF HER FACE IN A SHOWER OF SWEAT! Charlize tumbles to the turnbuckle dazed. Marceau on with seconds left, pouring in looping left hands to Charlize' stunned face. CHARLIZE GOES DOWN! Theron shell-shocked, sits down in the corner - Marceau steps up and clips a hard one two across the blonde's eyes - the bell sounds - the ref. tackles Marceau away! Charlize gets a long count and somehow makes it to her feet - pandemonium reigns. After a long delay: Charlize Theron UD10.

 

Crowd-pleasing battle sees Theron escorted shakily to her dressing room after the fight as Marceau celebrates defiantly in the ring before going for overnight observation at the local emergency ward. Marceau claiming victory again despite a wide score in favor of Charlize, while Theron calls the fight, "The closest I ever came to killing another woman with my bare hands." Marceau revealing unguessed courage and a knack for blunting punches, is nevertheless bludgeoned unrecognizable by a Charlize Theron who made this match a war.
