Pt 1:

Before; Cracks appearing in old BSE solidarity with the “strong hand at the top” out of the picture (until recently). Egos, latent rivalries, starting to bubble to the surface as former stablemates start to size each other up as potential paydays.

“When Kaley took the title, it got to Charisma,” special commentator Jenny O’Dell says at ringside. “I remember a party we were once at where Charisma sort if suggested that Kaley should give her a shot, and Cuoco thought CC was joking--we kind of laughed it off, but I KNOW Carpenter was starting to measure herself against Kaley even then. There’ve been feelers from HBO for some time about this match up--there’s always bveen an audience for it and I know it’ll be a great fight. I just have mixed emotions obviously, because were such a tightly-knit group. Still, deep down, I think we always knew this was going to happen--sooner or later.”

Kaley in black bikini; hair in loose beach bun with messy bangs; white gloves, Charisma in purple bikini with purple plastic ring connections; black gloves; hair loose/curly.

R1,2: Identical stances: right hands at cheek; left hands across tummies; left shoulders angled towards the opponent as girls fight from cagey closed stances. Carpenter keeping the jab on Kaley’s soft shoulder and tit, fading back whenever Cuoco pounces: brunette veteran neatly gauging distance, running her blonde rival into counters and clinches. Carpenter managing Kaley’s speed well in these rounds--tying up and walking her around; stalking to the right along the apron, surprising Kaley with sudden right hands from the screened stance. Inside, Charisma definitely outfighting Kaley: cuffing and swatting short swipes, dipping and blocking blonde receipts in the pocket, then clinching. Cuoco following Charisma around, trying to negotiate, but clearly being bamboozled through 2.

R3: Kaley stops trying to pounce-in: Charisma’s too crafty. Cuoco goes flat-footed--jabbing her way in, then turning on short, nasty hooks--taking CC in her jugs or mouth. Cuoco electing to fight off Charisma’s chest and doing very well: right uppercut in close scores, as does that limber double hook, head and body. Carpenter rolling shots, bending at the waist, but not answering back much: Kaley’s beating CC to punches, forcing Carpenter to stay defensive. Impressive blonde shutout: most pundits openly questioned whether Cuoco could work inside with Charisma; now they know.

R4: Kaley with weight on right foot, crouching a she paws her jabs, then snaps off the left hook: tidy, supple stuff as girls continue to fight a prowling, lithe style on flat feet. Cuoco tearing up the Carpenter tummy with those hooks, doubling nicely to chin or jugs: CC looking flustered, having trouble with Cuoco’s hand speed inside. Charisma dipping and rolling, throwing her left shoulder into Kaley’s chest to unbalance her, but blonde is wise to all the tricks; wonderful, throw-back type round as girls move torsos up, down in, out and around in seductive rolls. Kaley the more accurate vixen--once tagging CC a hook so clean on the chin that Carpenter is sent momentarily reeling.

R5: Back in close--not smothering each other: each girl adept at leaning onto back (right) foot to get a little punching room when she wants it. Cuffing, swatting, swiping stuff--vixens rolling smoothly into blows--combining offense with defense as a consequence of the smooth torso movement. Midway through, Carpenter’s able to turn into a clouting right to Kaley’s chin, finally putting Kaley wobbly butt. Cuoco startled, issues her first defensive clinch, cuddling CC around her arms for ref’s break. Carpenter staying ion Kaley’s body, crowding in with the left shoulder under Cuoco’s chin while lugging rights and lefts up underneath, Kaley beaten to ropes open-mouthed and flushed: she clinches repeatedly  repeatedly to the bell, looking frazzled.

R6: Kaley on her toes, flicking out jabs, rotating to her right, Charisma in closed stance (left shoulder pointed at Kaley)--constantly getting her left flank turned as Cuoco steps n behind her: cute blonde footwork undressing brunette a little. Kaley shooting in right hands over CC’s left shoulder--Carpenter rolling with them to take the edge off--but Kaley getting off strong, looking good, Come-along hooks nag at Charisma’s breasts: Cuoco showing no respect to those world class hooters, former stable or no. Kaley’s round, neatly answers the strong Charisma fifth.

Cuoco/Carpenter conc.

R7: Round dominated for two minutes by Charisma as she walks Kaley down behind the jab and works the body. All unravels when Cuoco unleashes a screened right uppercut, catching CC viciously under the chin. As Carpenter’s reeling google-eyed on the spot, Kaley clouts her a sharp left/right--swatting hacks either side of the jaw, toggling Carpenter’s head and ringing her ears. CC faltering, reaches in to clinch: Kaley denies her with a torrid flurry to breadbasket, beating a shout of pain from Charisma. CC stumbling forward--Cuoco right back in those breasts with rising, curling rights and lefts--socking ‘em to-and-fro while retreating in good order. Sidestep, Kaley--Charisma staggers face-first to ropes: Cuoco pounces back in a straight right into Carpenter’s lower back as the brunette is turning round. CC’s right knee buckles--she catches herself with her right arm over the top rope, but Cuoco’s swarming now--lathering furiously to steal the round at the bell. Some late hitting from Kaley: Charisma cowering, shouting “STOP! REF!”

R8: Kaley does it again. Blonde loping the perimeter, luring Charisma forward, keeping distance: brunette dominating the ring, being the aggressor, walking her girl down for two minutes. Down the stretch, Kaley stepping right, turns into a cute, sudden right hand lead from the screened stance, intercepting Carpenter as CC’s trying a right to the body. Jolting shot nearly drops Carpenter: while she’s floundering, Kaley clips her a slick right uppercut, then leans in to clean up with her third consecutive right hand on the button. Carpenter’s head jolting violently--she spills backward--jugs a-jumpin’, eyes shining: Kaley hops after, leading right hands and trying to finish sweeping hooks, CC hits ropes in disarray, head lolling dangerously: Cuoco able to dig a fusillade of rights and lefts to carpenter’s tummy, preparatory to cleaning up those jugs with chugging fury at the bell, Kaley excited to be punching--takes a little extra: ref pulls Cuoco off from behind as Carpenter glares groggily.

R9: Carpenter stalking: she’s rarely fought off the ropes in this fight.. Kaley stepping easy to her right--pivoting on her lead (left) foot as she slides around. Cuoco showing the jab--sometimes lazy, sometimes spicy--keeping Charisma’s head moving. Carpenter weaving, inching forward, backhanding her jab off her back (right0 foot: plenty of respect all around--neither girl looking to take chances. Outside--Kaley’s overall agility decisive: once in a while she scores a vicious buggy-whip right hand to CC’s left flank as Carpenter tips forward behind her mitts to receive. After landing this heavy single shots--Kaley hops right, moving well out of range as Charisma winces, pursues.

R10: CC jabs, then hooks off the stick, taking Kaley heavily in her breasts. Cuoco backs up, tries the right uppercut; gets beat to a chopping right cross on the mouth that sends her reeling all the way back to ropes. CC hopping in, setting up with her left shoulder pointing at Kaley: Charisma pawing the right to spook her blonde, then trouping into vicious hooks while transitioning weight to back (right) foot. Kaley rocked--eyes staring: she’s got her right hand stacked atop left at her tummy--tilting side to side to roll Carpenter’s heavy-handed assault. Carpenter patient, putting it in Cuoco with gusto--CC using little pawing motions and feints to get Kaley committed, then stroking her blonde hard clout with either hand. Midway through, Kaley leaning against ropes, breaking down--she tries a right uppercut (missing) and eats a thudding left to her rightside ribs in exchange. Cuoco shouting in pain, cringing forward: GORGEOUS Carpenter right uppercut picks Kaley up in her solar plexus and PUTS HER DOWN! Jenny O’Dell bolts to her feet, shouting “KALEY’S HURT!” into the mic. Cuoco sobbing ibn all fours--Carpenter bellowing down as ref bodies her back. Shaky 8, Cuoco: ON COMES CARPENTER! CC eyes wide--she’s got Kaley ready to go and she’s POURING it on. Kaley tilting forward, leaning back--hands low and loose as she rolls her torso, CC missing the chin, but burying either fist in deep behind either Cuoco elbow, Kaley crippled, weeping from the body blasts, but curvy legs hold her up, Dying seconds see Carpenter square  away and rampage vindictively to Kaley’s sporty breasts--hup-hup-hupping them into oblivion as poor Cuoco slouches on ropes in stupor. Bell: CC banks a little insurance in Kaley’s jugs, snarling as she beats helpless meat; ref pulls brunette off as Cuoco sobs in relief/exhaustion./torment. Comes back close UD10--Kaley Cuoco!

After: CC ashen-faced, stoic as decision is announced. Perfunctory hug between the two as Kaley congratulates Charisma--Carpenter cordial, but not warm as the celebration starts to grow around the blonde.

“Taking down Charisma is a long-time dream of mine,” Cuoco admits in post fight, “we’re friends, but as fighters--you see certain girls and you always wonder--and that wondering doesn’t go away on it’s own. I feel like it’s answered now: I felt I controlled herm, I made her fight in space, and I beat her up in the exchanges. She’s such a great fighter, but tonight, I really think she bit off more than she could chew.”

Carpenter business-like, graciously offering on-camera/in-ring comments. “Well, you know, a fight like that--where one girl has the other out on her feet at the end--it’s hard to say I lost that fight, I know it got scored for Kaley, but I’m not satisfied and neither should she be, I’m a little frustrated actually, when she says the questions have been ‘answered’: to me, that fight opened up more questions than answers.”
