Boxing After Dark

BEFORE: "Making welterweight's no problem," Kathy assures her fans in prefight. "I lose weight to make lightweight, so this is actually healthier for me: I feel like I'm stronger, and hitting even harder than ever. Moon's had a little success against no-name brand ham-and-eggers, but let's see how she handles top beef. My guess: she's gonna choke on it!" Bloodgood excited at the opportunity: Moon looking to adjusting Katherine's expectations upon arrival at big-girl class. "I know she's fought welterweight before," Moon says at podium, "but she's been fighting light for a long time and there will be a little culture shock when we get in there. I'm not some cupcake she can just push around: when we body up, it's going to be Kathy Heigl backing up and taking weight. I WILL out-strength her, and we'll see how she deals with that. Probably by quitting." Moon in purple cotton tank top and panties; black gloves. Katherine in sheer, white see-through tank top over baby blue bikini; white gloves; bouncy short blonde curls.

During R1: Girls step-to: Moon pounds a right round punch flat against Kathy's left bicep; Heigl shoves a right up under Moon's left breast and they fall in to clinch. Ref pushes 'em apart...they circle, scowling: Moon flops a jab onto Kathy's jugs - loops the right hand over top; Kathy ducks-with the right - hands at temples - then answers back shoving right to pit of Moon's belly/blockbuster hook bashing off Bloodgood's right shoulder, leading to clinch. That's the way of it - girls clobbering in spurts, then muscling each other around: plenty of pushing and grunting in between ref's breaks. Kathy able to walk Moon backward more often than not - with the punching being about even, Heigl's tummy-to-tummy positional dominance gives her the heat.

R2: Kathy smartens Moon up via smashing, stiff left jabs: blonde showing big-woman class, repelling Bloodgood early. Moon frowning - out on the end of poke: she's set up and cashed in by a crashing right cross a minute in. Bloodgood rocked, wobbly-butt: Moon showing heart and strength by staying upright - forming peek-a-boo as Kathy squares away. Heigl pounding Moon, reducing her: Kathy bashing big-girl at Moon's defending biceps - just hammering apart the guard, backing Moon up. Ropes: Moon sliding to her right, looking shabby, wrists crossed at her breasts; Heigl stalking, stepping-with, keeping the thudding jab on Moon/dropping the odd right hand onto left shoulder, or swinging wide in above left hip. Bell: Heigl brightens, cheeks rosy from the effort of pounding on Moon like a big girl should. Camera catches a non-plussed Sarah Lancaster crossing her arms in the audience, pursing lips in disgust.

R3: Kathy's jab stiff and pounding - keeping Moon in defensive peek-a-boo. Heigl deploying right hands off the jab - dropping 'em through the middle, muscular; sweeping 'em wide-right, taking Moon thick in flank; shooting 'em straight down, driving into Moon's sturdy paunch. Bloodgood grunting, taking...she's getting punished on her way in, but working once she's inside Heigl's jab. Moon belting away short, clouting lefts and rights - clobbering Kathy's tits and pecs; bludgeoning the waist. Heigl covering up, stooping forward on the take, then pushing Moon off - getting her back outside where the jab can victimize her. Late the round, Kathy able to turn Moon's chin via booming right cross: all because of that heavy, howizter jab. Bloodgood rocked, wobbly butt: curvy legs hold her up, but once again, Kathy bashes out the points.

R4: Same story...Moon covering up, wading in, getting shelled until she can crowd Kathy and force toe-to-toe. Inside, Heigl staying compact - fitting a short little right uppercut to Moon's chin, but otherwise looking to tie up/push off. Moon punishing the Heigl biceps/pecs when she can, but Katherine's getting her way: Heigl clinching for ref's breaks, then forcing Moon to renegotiate blonde jab all over again - eating choice right hands in the bargain. More points for Heigl...she gives a sullen, disheveled Moon sparkling eye contact at the bell.

R5: Clockwise-rotating gun-platform stuff as beauties stand strong, shell away jabs from upright stances. Kathy getting her face knocked back with authority: Moon's jab not as educated, but just as heavy. Heigl scowling, forced to work: she's punishing Moon's chest/pecs - reducing her steadily before hooking the right bicep, or dropping in the right cross. Moon outworked again despite the new look: Kathy Heigl wrote the book on stand-and-deliver gun-platform fighting at distance. More sunny blonde smiles, movie-star dimples as Heigl banks her fifth straight competitive heat.

R6: Classic Kathy Heigl progression. She jabs Moon into sullen peek-a-boo; she bodies up, walking Moon back, making her take weight on ropes for ref's breaks; she walks Moon down behind the jab, bashing away at either brunette arm - jamming in at pecs. Bloodgood grimacing - constantly receiving Kathy into clinches and getting walked around. Heigl's pace slow, methodical - she's steppin'-in, working, just cleaning up big-girl through 6.

R7: HEIGL GOES DOWN! Crazy stuff...Kathy moving in to clinch, eats a short-shrugging right uppercut and stumbles to all fours at the open. Power of Moon Bloodgood: big brunette breathing through pursed lips as Kathy takes 8, then Moon wades in, lays siege at ropes. Kathy in rigid earmuff, cowering butt-in-ropes: Moon squaring away and POUNDING her blonde big, fat right/left roundhouses. Bashing impacts take Katherine in hips/flanks/biceps - blonde beauty shaken on the spot, thighs trembling. Concerted effort by Moon to wedge right uppercuts up between Kathy's mitts hits paydirt only when Moon first slaps a right hand to belly: Kathy distracted, finally munches on a firm chin-checking right and BLONDE GIRL DOWN! Kathy spilling to her knees again, and we're only a minute and a half in: Moon stalking neutral corner hands on hips, anxious to finish. Heigl up - badly rattled: she rallies like a pro - jabbing Moon off the ropes and circling counterclockwise. Rest of the way all Kathy survival tactics: retreating from Moon - walking her into jabs - tying up for ref's break. Bloodgood back in the fight with a stirring 10-7 seventh: eyes're bright, attitude much improved during the break.

R8: Kathy's still hurt, no question about it. Moon with initiative - SHE's now jabbing Kathy into a peek-a-boo front; she's walking in off the jab - punishing Heigl via short-curling right/lefts to body/arms, then bodying up to walk Heigl backward. Moon reaching in under Heigl's arms - wrestling apart the guard: Bloodgood actively seeking Kathy's jugs this round, humbling them via short-shrugging fist-and-forearm work. Heigl grumpy, getting walked around and punished: HER curvy legs answer the call, holding her up under thudding Bloodgood pressure.

R9: The Power of Katherine Heigl...Moon pushing in, being the boss...Kathy getting shoved around like a shopping cart...minute in, Heigl steps back, issues a stubby one-two in between Moon's raised mitts and BLOODGOOD GOES WOBBLYBUTT! Moon rocked, forming panicky earmuff: she's stranded midring, biting back shouts as Kathy straps waist thick, painting right/lefts. Heigl punishing midsection, then palming up to push Moon off: big blonde walking big brunette down now as Kathy catches second wind. Systematic work done on Bloodgood's arms as Kathy bashes away on prepared defences: Bloodgood wilting away, hounded to ropes. Round ends to the sight of Kathy working hard to get at Moon's rack: blonde girl prying apart brunette arms, then shoving in righty-on-jug to bell.

R10: Kathy's got her mojo back...Bloodgood can't get out of the peek-a-boo as blonde jab re-establishes air supremacy. Behind that heavy, shelling jab, Kathy's got so many options: drop thumping right hands with choice of targets; body up, walk Moon around, wrestle apart her guard; push off, walk Moon down behind the jab. Stepping pressure applied - Bloodgood with an organized guard in place, but unable to hold ground as blonde girl imposes will. Shutout 10th thick n' systematic: Heigl takes a convincing UD10.

After: Moon all touched up, puffy from punishment: she came up against the best Katherine Heigl anyone's seen in quite some time. Heigl glowing, bestowing dimples on all her fans and haters alike: when she wins, she's a princess amongst serfs. "Big brunette punching-bag," Kathy dismisses Moon in postfight, despite that scary mid-rounds uprising. "She came in all strong and big, but I reduced her. I've always said - when I set my feet, I get my way - and I got my way tonight. I took what I wanted from Moon, and welterweights better get used to that...'cause I want it ALL!"
