Before: After seeing what Swanepoel had to offer in the first fight, Maria's radiating confidence. "If I didn't break her then, I will tonight!" the brazen brunette boasts. "The girl's raw, inexperienced, and like all pampered models; got no business in a boxing ring. They want me to take it easy on her? Give her some 'experience'? Well, I'll give her an experience alright - one she's never gonna forget!"

Candice surprisingly upbeat, telling the media she wanted to apologize to her fans for her previous fight. "I spent weeks preparing for it," she said, her cheeks coloring. "Everyone told me what to expect; what to do; what not to do. So as soon as the bell rang I forget everything and went at her like a crazy woman. The worst thing that could possibly happen, happened - I knocked her on her ass in like the first minute! I was jumping around, screaming 'I'm on top of the world' or something. I was convinced this was going to be so easy I'd be the champion in a month or two...tops."

Swanepoel grimaced recalling what happened next. "So there I am, out of my mind with dreams of glory and untold riches; forgetting everything I'd been taught. My corner tried to calm me between rounds, but I figured 'what do they know' so I pretty much ignored everything they said. I woke up later in my dressing room and it wasn't until I reviewed the video that I saw how incredibly lucky I was that I wasn't hurt. OK, I learned my lesson - I think. In this fight you'll see a *new and improved* version 2.0 Candice Swanepoel...at least, that's the plan."

Ginny, Charlize Theron and Cat Bell are away at The Wiz's big pool party; Witherspoon is fighting in Mexico with Penelope Cruz in her corner which leaves Swanepoel to 'make do' with head trainer Sharon Stone - and possibly some late help from Julie Benz after she's showered and changed - if she's even in shape to get there after fighting tough brunette Ashley Greene!

Menounos in the same faux buckskin bikini and matching high-top shoes from the first match; Swanepoel switching to a Victoria's Secret thong bra/panty combo that has everyone at ringside panting. Both women with red gloves - at Menounos' insistence. "I don't want pretty little Miss Candi-azz's blood to scare the folks in the expensive seats ringside," MM snarks.

During R1: Both girl's physique similar, but unlike tyro Swanepoel, Menounos is veteran, experienced, and a pressure fighter. She takes it right to Candice's sleek, Victoria's Secret model, body on the inside; jabbing her way in tight; snugging up to the coltish youngster and doing harm! Elbows tucked in, hands up, Maria snapping hard punches at Candice's slim body; a rolling 'softening up barrage' that has folks in Maria's 'expensive seats' cringing by the second minute. Swanepoel being out-hit, but (uncharacteristically for a model) not shying away; facing the music and standing in - showing far more discipline than her debut - eagerly lashing back. Many of her wide, sweeping, punches wrap around Maria's head, shoulders or sides, but the ones connecting do so with surprising power. Candice looking to earn respect this round, but it's all Maria Menounos' way on the official scorecards.

R2: Maria straight out of her corner, walks Candice down and beats her back to the ropes. Menounos hooking the body, hooking the body, then coming over top; rocking the wiry blonde time and again. Candice's shoulders forced back over the top rope at times, but her long legs hold up and serve her well as she's able, time and again, to slide-step along the ropes for brief respites before Maria hunts her down and resumes her bombardment. Candice never able to get into a rhythm, forced to suffer at Maria's veteran hands, but not backing down from her. The few times Candice able to get separation, she shows her leggy ability, stepping across the ring to elude Maria's straight in rushes; then turning to face her again. Swannie trying to establish her jab, but pawing it rather than snapping it - another example of her inexperience. Final minute, Menounos again pinning the youngster on the ropes, chesting up to her, working both flanks with hard-driving hooks; working up body to whipsaw Candice's head side-to-side, then back down again. DOWN GOES CANDICE! Swanepoel dropped by a flurry of hooks to her lithe body! Those, long, limber, legs just fold up under her as it all accumulates until it's just too much 'liver worse'! Candice spills to all fours, long blonde hair cascading in a golden waterfall over her flushed face. Menounos 'accidentally' knees Swanepoel's head as she spins, then struts away with arms raised. Referee watching Maria's retreat, turns to find Candice on all fours, crawling to the corner; laboriously dragging herself up the ropes; beating the count. Blonde mumbles 'OK' to ref's question. She's knock-kneed, jiggle butt - but combative - in the final seconds; jabbing and even throwing a sweeping hook that cuffs the offensive-minded Menounos upside the head, but to no visible effect. Bell: Menounos to her corner in a frustrated huff; Swanepoel wobbly to her stool, her minor success? Denying Maria a much desired knockout. Models and actresses ringside all murmuring in agreement: Candice Swanepoel's looking unusually competitive...for a model.

R3: Maria out to finish the job! Swanepoel, after earnest conversation with Sharon Stone in her corner, committing to the jab this round. Menounos still showing the value of experience, cutting off the ring to keep Candice under control; banging her back to the ropes over and over; setting up shop in her Victoria's Secret lace panties and wailing away at her body with both hands. Maria's determined to beat this model body-to-body and only headhunts sporadically. Swanepoel staying composed, framing solid defense; gloves earmuffed, elbows tucked in. Menounos able to score the odd uppercut, but contents herself listening to the soft, dulcet sounds of tall, pretty, blonde grunting and gasping as her fists do yeoman work on that gorgeous model body. Swanepoel, for her part, able to counter effective in spots; scoring often enough to keep Menounos honest and deter her from going all in against an opponent clearly with some fight left in her.

R4: Menounos corner showing signs of their fighters frustration at the stubborn blonde; gesturing, finger pointing, arguing over strategy/tactics? Swanepoel leaning back, sucking air as Stone ices down both flanks and then tugs at her waistband, leaning in nose to nose imparting wisdom from her years of experience. Candice gets a butt spank as she rises, steps out with a surprisingly confident expression. Maria comes right at the blonde same as the first three rounds, left extended, right cocked for a 'go home' finisher. MENOUNOS IS HURT! Candice drops back on her right foot, then brings out the bolo! Maria caught flush, staggered, wobbly butt; genuinely hurt by one big rangy punch. Candice, eyes wide, sets about methodically breaking down her brunette! Using Maria's own play book, Swanepoel busts up the middle, leans on Maria's chest to hook, hook, hooks, her body. Swanepoel glides gracefully back and breaks out her rangy punching arsenal; whip-lashing the stunned brunette with sweeping right crosses and slashing left hooks. Menounos stumbling backward around the ring in a tight peek-a-boo defensive shell. Maria the harder, stronger, women, but she's not a great defensive fighter and, like Debbe Dunning to whom she's compared, she doesn't like to clinch and refuses to move her head so it's being hit with regularity. Best round of Swanepoel's brief (6 rds total) career, gets her name atop the scoresheet at last!

R5: Candice so excited on her stool she can hardly sit still; squirming excitedly as Stone works on her body - and her mind! Stone reminding her what they've worked on; how to go after an injured opponent; proper balance of aggression/caution, etc. Benz, just arriving, works the ice bag; paying particular attention to Candice's barely restrained, heaving, bosom,; the cold bringing her pips up nicely; moisture trickling down her tanned and tawny torso. It doesn't hurt her image as a sweaty, healthy, vibrant, young woman in the flower of youth! Candice on her feet ten seconds before the bell, bouncing up and down on the balls of her feet, stepping resolutely out to confront her brunette nemesis. Maria slumping on her stool, frowning as her corner reads her the riot act - nothing she hasn't told herself long before she got to her stool. Swanepoel sticking the jab with authority, confidence surging. Both girls let fly the right hand; Candice's looping over Maria's left shoulder; Menounos' short, straight, direct; snapping inside Candice's jab. BLONDE GIRL DOWN!
Exchange goes to the more compact puncher as Candice skitters to her butt; rolls onto her back; long legs flying; head bouncing on the canvas. Menounos stands over her, flexing; shouting down into the face of the shipwrecked blonde at her feet, then stomping away to the applause of the crowd who are on their feet. Incredibly, once more the battered blonde beauty heaves herself off the floor and staggers to her feet; gloves at her chin; bosom heaving sexily in her sheer, almost transparent when moist; expensive, imported lace, bra by Vicky's Secret! Whatever else, the tall blonde looks good enough to eat. And since Maria Menounos is looking at her with 'the eye of the tiger' that's what she sets about doing (figuratively, of course!) It's a brunette on blonde beatdown as Maria unleashes on the wobbling Swanepoel! If she could, Maria would break out a cricket bat, but finds her fists an acceptable alternative as she heartlessly sets about wrecking ribs; terrorizing tummy; bashing breasts; and lashing liver. By the end of the round, everyone is talking about is how unbelievable it is that Candice only went down that one time! Maria romps to a huge point lead; the only question now...how long will it last?

R6: Maria jumps out eager to end it and she's all over the blonde in the first minute but Candice's youth a factor and she recovers quickly between rounds. Menounos doing a great job of breaking down the blonde; keeping her trapped on the ropes; rarely letting her off - and on the occasions she does escape, MM quickly reels her back in for more shellac! Swanepoel maintaining good pocket discipline; defenses adequate; but she's getting strafed up and down and her flanks are starting to hue an unhealthy pink glow thanks to Maria's hard hooking hands. Menounos the harder woman, but surprisingly vulnerable to counters to the head. Maria getting off 3-4 punches to one for Candice, but Swannie's landing just enough to keep Maria honest, at least.

R7: Maria single-minded in her determination to get Candice out of there, selling herself to get to her body; setting up cozy and hooking like a two dollar Amsterdam streetwalker! Swanepoel exhibiting growth from her debut fight, not letting Menounos break her down as she did before - although there's no pretense that this fight is truly competitive. Maria is too strong, too experienced, and far the harder woman. Which is a good thing, because Swanepoel refuses to go away! She keeps punching even when she's outworked. Brunette landing hard; landing more often; but the blonde connects with an uppercut every so often and they send shivers through Maria's hard body. Candice doing enough work when on the ropes to show she's capable of competing, so the referee lets it go on, and on, and on!

R8: Stone telling Candice the glass is half full, when (perhaps) her body is telling her it's half empty. Stone doing her best imitation of Angelo Dundee, pulling and tugging at Candice's waistband to help her inhale oxygen - there's gotta be a "Victoria's Secret Panties; So Strong That...etc.," commercial in there somewhere. Benz, realistically glum as she leans in whispering in her ear, pointing at Maria...telling her the schoolyard bully is eating her lunch, no doubt! Candice, taking it all in, nodding enthusiastically; happy to still be fighting after what happened in her first meeting with Menounos. Maria still testing Candice's body and finding it tasty! Swanepoel folded forward by consecutive shots to the bellybutton; uprighted by an uppercut that comes 'this close' to ending her night. But instead of put to sleep, she's just knocked back onto the ropes where Maria leans on her chest-to-chest to work her flanks with abandon. Candice backs her off with an uppercut of her own, then they trade hooks. Candice doing a better job of moving her head than Maria; brunette's face available, if only Swanepoel could stop blocking and ducking long enough to set and punch it! She lands enough punches to keep Maria on her toes defensively, and down the stretch Candice is able to step around Menounos and drop a right over her left shoulder. All in all, however, Swanepoel is doing well just to survive and she's a pretty shambles as she wobbles back to her stool and flops her tight young behind on her stool; sweat streaming between her perky breasts; trickling down her abs to disappear into that expensive Victoria's Secret bottom well below her cute little 'innie.'

 

 Swanepoel vs Menounos (conc) too much 'sexy' for 2 posts

 

Posted by for simguy on 8/21/2010, 8:12 am, in reply to "Re: PPV: Candice Swanepoel vs Maria Menounos (2 of 3) Pt 2"

 

R9: Maria getting roasted in her corner for not finishing 'Barbie' and she's out with renewed fury. Candice, her hopes buoyed by Stone's sage advice - and Benz' hot breath on her neck and hand on her butt 'helping' her off the stool - on young, coltish, legs, steps out to meet her fate. Maria unleashes with a fury that brings gasps from the jaded crowd; but young Ms. Swanepoel holds on, hangs in, and manages to clinch, clutch and hold her way through the initial onslaught. Then...MARIA'S HURT! Candice connecting with another inside uppercut puts a little bend in Maria's legs! Candice throwing everything she has into a furious follow-up; Menounos reeling back in disarray. Maria caught with an overhand right, then a sweeping left that has her tilting dangerously off balance. CANDICE DROPS MARIA AGAIN! Another sweeping right hand takes Menounos flush on the jaw and she eats canvas for the second time in two fights with the South African Assassin! Candice trips over Maria's prostrate body, almost falls, grabs rope to right herself; then steps lively to the corner and leans on the turnbuckles with a self-satisfied smile; watching Menounos struggle to one knee, topple over; put her hand down; then rise wobbly and shaken at eight! Maria's hurt, but she's rugged, and Candice's inefficiency betrays her as Menounos stutter-steps back to the ropes, where she hunkers down; dipping and digging to the blonde's body from a tight peekaboo defense long enough to survive the round. Swanepoel bouncy and tarty back to her corner where she's greeted by a stern-faced Sharon Stone who reminds her, "You haven't won anything yet; all you did was survive another round."

R10: Midnight for Cinderella! Maria hurts Swanepoel with her first exchange and from there it's just a matter of how much punishment the blonde can take. Apparently, the answer is a lot! Candice trades hooks with Maria (again) and she comes out second best (again). Swanepoel stumbling back all fluttery-lashed, basically out on her feet. Maria steps with her and beats Candice like the proverbial 'rented mule' (i.e., without mercy) but the stubbornly proud South African blonde reminds longtime ringsiders of an earlier South African blond who, like Swanepoel refused to go down; and like Theron, Candice getting pretty much roasted alive as she earmuffs; body bouncing off the ropes again and again, as Menounos hammers her with every tool in her arsenal. Swanepoel stands there; long legs rubbery, yet unyielding; face in her gloves; body taking a beating; but refusing to give Maria the satisfaction of the knockdown. At the bell, Stone and Benz rush out, supporting Candice on either side as they shepherd her back to her stool... where Benz pays unseemly attention to Candice's 'goodies' while Stone kneels between Swannie's spread legs, forearms on her thighs, talking earnestly. Candice, hands on Stone's shoulders, nodding as Stone tells her everything she's done wrong; then how they're going to fix each and every flaw, "...until you're perfect." Decision a no-brainer, UD10 Maria Menounos; but she knows she was in a fight with a stubborn young blonde in only her second fight - a youngster who's going to be much better when she gains experience.

After: Candice Swanepoel showing an unusual fighting spirit in two tough losses - the results don't read like those of your typical model! Maria Menounos, red-cheeked and obviously pissed by her inability to put Swanepoel away, nevertheless acknowledges her grit - albeit grudgingly. "She's a helluva lot more woman than I thought coming in. I had my way with her in the first fight, that fluke knockdown not withstanding; but I saw her grow as a fighter tonight. I don't know if she'll continue to progress, but I wouldn't want to be in the ring with her in 5-6 years once she's had time to absorb the lessons the FCBA veterans are going to be teaching her."

Candice facing her first post-fight press conference; looking haggard, shop-worn; her face hidden under a hooded sweatshirt;; movements stiff and obviously painful...but there's no mistaking the grin on her lips when she talks about knocking Menounos down for a second time, or answering questions about what made her keep getting up after being knocked down herself. "We South African's are a tough, hardy, breed," she boasts, glancing at Stone who can't stop grinning like a proud parent. "As a nation, we've been knocked down a lot and each time we get up and keep trudging ahead. My countrymen, and women, expect no less of me when I represent them in the FCBA. I'm going to continue making mistakes, but I'll learn from them. In a while - hopefully sooner rather than later - I'll be standing here talking about how I won a fight instead of merely survived one."
