Before: "Dangerous fight for me, isn't it?" Gemma asserts to skeptical media in prefight. "I mean - yes, I'm physically superior to Charlotte in terms of fighting power - but the fact that she's a non-entity in the States leads everyone to assume I'm going to erase her...and that just shouldn't be the case. Church is limited, but extremely doughty - no one walks through her. The danger here is that if I fail to dismiss her in explosive fashion, some of you will hold it against me, when truly, Church should be given credit as a hard chew."

 

Charlotte shrugging off assertions she's a big underdog to Gemma: Churchy doesn't see it that way. "Honestly, we can't see why you yanks favour Gemma as highly as you do," Charlotte says at podium. "In the UK, she's considered pedestrian fare - middle of the road, soap-opera type talent. She did hand Zeta Jones a much needed defeat, which boosted Gemma's stock somewhat, but in the end, as long as I come in somewhat curvy, I should have all I require to excuse her."

 

Gemma in black bikini; scrappy ponytail with bangs framing face; black gloves. Charlotte in pale pastel rainbow bikini; hair tightly back in slick ponytail; white gloves. Church coming in slightly chubby to get bigger for fight against healthy, strapping lightweight.

During R1: Church straight ahead, bobbing approach in crossed-arm - her right hand always ready to protect left cheek as she works forward. Defence-in-depth for Gemma: first line is the legs - stepping her around Church; second line is piston jab, pounding Church head-and-shoulders; third line - when Charlotte manages to close - tidy, short right/left uppercuts inside, neatly taking Church to chin. Charlotte spending herself up in headlong pursuit up the middle - peppered and picked up stout by Gemma: Church put wobbly-butt and rejected on multiple occasions. Final minute - stubborn Church penetrates, fighting effectively off Gemma's chest to work Arterton's belly via cuffing right/lefts.

R2: Same fight-design: pressure to the body from Church; Gemma making Charlotte pay taxes at every distance, then picking her up tidy uppercuts in close. Result: punching shutout for Gemma as she punishes Church on the way in, lights her up, then pushes off to circle. Down the stretch, Charlotte bulling forward munches on short-shrugging right/left uppercut sequence to chin - picking her up/putting her down on all fours at bell. Gemma grinning en route to corner - she's touching and hurting Charlotte at will through 2. Trainer focusses Gemma by saying: "Good - but I want you to tax her body some. Just touch her hooks when she covers up, then come back up to the chin like you been doing."

R3: Church stubborn - willfully bobbing her way in, whacking Gemma's waist, fighting in close quarters. Arterton stymied - frequently shoulder to shoulder with Charlotte, keeping elbows in to block body shots - Church compact, using left shoulder/chickenwing left elbow to nudge at Gemma before clouting her tuff right/lefts to body. Charlotte outworking Gemma, walking her around the ring for two minutes: wheels come off as Gemma steps back, walks Churchy into bruising little uppercuts-in-tandem, putting Char-Char wobbly butt once again. Church staggering, on the verge of going down: curvy legs hold her up, but can't prevent points from being stolen by opportunistic Gems.

R4: Church punished by jabs on her way in: she's crouching/bobbing on the spot when Gemma freezes her via vicious licking hook to body, then drops her via left/right uppercuts to chin in tight. Char-char sputtering on all fours, jiggling as she gets up shaky: quaking 8 for Church, then Gemma's wading in. Thumping beatdown issued at ropes - Arterton getting big, palming Church's shoulders to push her into ropes, then laying on thick to waist/flanks. Charlotte sponging thick whacks, but digging in...down the stretch, she catches Gemma a wicked hook to liver, and in the ensuing trade upstairs ARTERTON GOES DOWN! Rights and lefts off chin sit Gemma in a puddle at bell: she's all blinking, astonished as Charlotte stomps past all a-jiggle.

R5,6,7,8,9: Gemma showing respect, fighting disciplined, presenting layered approach to Charlotte's straight-ahead battering ram idea. Clockwise circling turns Church off course, costing her steam. Punishing, constant jabbing pounds Char-char lumpy - busting up her face despite good bobbing head movement in the crossed-arm. Pre-emptive uppercuts inside stun Charlotte - forcing her to fight hurt at the start of almost every inside-exchange...Church systematically punished before she even gets to Gemma's ribcage. Arterton refusing to lay in too long - she's pushing off, keeping her back clear of ropes, walking away to her right to reset...Church simply denied the head-to-head struggle she craves. Incremental punishment extensive from the breasts on up: Gemma not getting work done downstairs, keeping Charlotte's curvy legs in the game perhaps.

R10: Arterton relatively fresh, unleashes hell on Charlotte: Gemma furiously at her foe to close the show. Church battered via whistling one-twos/ripping hooks to flank...she's taking her first backward steps - right hand at left cheek/left across her gut. Arterton hard-eyed, leaning in and drilling Church vicious licks: steady stalking pursuit finally bludgeons Charlotte to her backside near ropes - Church flopping her right arm behind her to find a cable so she pull herself up. Badly battered Church beats the count, digs in: Gemma's eyes narrow as she wades in to finish. Siege of Charlotte Church hard to watch, but proud UK singer won't bend the knee: Gemma beats unresponsive British beef to bell, pounding and pounding at Church's flanks as Charlotte toughs it out. UD10 wide Gemma Arterton.

After: Arterton flushed, sweaty from her own exertions...she hits Charlotte with everything INCLUDING the kitchen sink, but can't get stubborn Church to quit. "I felt good," Gemma explains in postfight, "I felt in control. She's easy to find - I was hitting her and hurting her, but I did not work the body as much as I should have, so I feel like I let a KO slip through my fingers tonight. AFter each knockdown, I should have braced her to the ribcage...but I got chin-happy. Knew she was tough: there's your proof!"
