(Non-Title Pound-for-Pound Bout @ lightweight)

BEFORE: "I've always felt we kind of handed Amanda pound-4-pound status by default," Erica smiles in prefight, "not sure she earned it the way I did. It's true, I stumbled a bit when she was really consistent - but I was fighting world-class fighters and champions while let's face it...Amanda was in with second class girls. Not saying she doesn't deserve respect - she does - but I'm really glad she's finally stepping up to prove to me that she's really pound-4-pound, you know?" Righetti shrugging off the suggestion she built her house on palooka foundations: "I've always felt that the better lightweights were unfinished business for me," Amanda says. "Erica's the kind of girl that tests everything - spirit, physicality, your mental game - she's got it all, and yes, there is that lingering sense that I might have sidestepped her, so I'm pumped to be able to finally get in front of her." Amanda in black bra and boy-leg panties; black gloves; curly hair tied back off her face. Erica in royal blue lace push up; crimson sport bikini bottoms; red gloves; hair in dark tangles/ringlets loose.

During R1: Amanda jab-jabbing: Erica rolling-with and answering the rugged right uppercut to sternum - then cramming in a left to belly as Amanda's hooking cheek. Girls weave side to side on the spot - mitts at mouths - then they're getting off robusto, clouting each other hooks-on-flanks or clubbing rights to chin. Amanda ducks, comes up via left uppercut to Erica's belly: Erica hooks Amanda's face, then puts a stubby right hand on top to back Righetti up. Amanda check-jabbing as she retreats to apron: Erica weaving under - rolling out of her crouch with a lunging hook that crashes heavy to jaw, draping Amanda ropeside. Righetti forms tight earmuff, keeping elbows in: Erica squares away, rips the waistline right/left/right/left, then comes up the middle via carving right uppercut - brushing a dazed Amanda back over top rope. Righetti rocked, but alert, keeping her guard together...she's planted strong in the pocket, taking Erica's body and flank shots, then clipping back cheeky uppercuts from the earmuff, busting Durance to rack. Erica in charge - pushing her head in between Amanda's mitts, pawing at Amanda's arms, then unleashing powerful haymakers; rolling-torso to get underneath Amanda and lapping the gut right/left as well. Bell: Erica cleaning up on Amanda's tummy, then pushing off big-girl...clear point of pride between these two, that Erica had Amanda's back on ropes much of the round.

R2: Erica jabbing out of the tight guard - her right hand at cheek while left hand slams onto Amanda's defences. Erica hooking the body on the way in: Erica chopping the short right hand up top, backing Righetti up. Big Rigs at apron, keeping dukes up/elbows in...she's receipting shoving right hands to Erica's body, then covering up tight - just touching Durance to keep her honest. Brutal back and forth as girls dip side to side, each bouncing wicked hooks and clubbing right hands off lats/heads/shoulders. Midway through, Righetti rips a rangy right uppercut off her right plant-leg...gorgeous chin-check picks Erica up and puts her wobbly-butt on the spot. Durance all loose-n'-woozy...she stumbles away suddenly distressed: it's Amanda over to offence. Whacking sidearm rights take Erica in her ribs/waist, driving her backward...Amanda jamming the straight left to face, keeping Erica defensive. Far ropes: Erica in shabby earmuff...OH how Amanda's beating her! Righetti unleashing thick, belting rights and lefts to Erica's waist, softening her, then lighting her up the right uppercut to drift her back into ropes. Durance in stupor, lips parted, eyes unfocussed...but she's keeping her dukes up, sponging it up like a champ in her body, trusting her legs to hold her upright, riding out Amanda's storm in the second. Bell: answer-push deep into ropes, Righetti on Erica...Amanda making sure Erica feels her weight.

R3: Durance shakes off the hurt, gets back to jab-jab-jabbing while keeping the right tight to cheek...she's got Amanda backing up early. Short right hand jolts Amanda to chin as Erica's bulling forward: RIGHETTI GOES WOBBLY-BUTT! Amanda woozy to ropes, head lolling...curvy legs holding her up as she stoops forward in earmuff. Erica stepping-to - hands touching at Amanda's guard, then RIPPING Amanda hook-to-midsection. Erica twisting torso-right into these shots, shouting "HUH-OH!" as the fist slams home. Another hook claps in behind Amanda's right elbow, sitting her in ropes - then another: Erica gritting her teeth, digging at her rival's body for quit. Durance working in close - always touching at Amanda with a hand or forearm while positioning, then plowing into the Righetti breadbasket or flanks. Amanda's thighs trembling...she starts seeking clinches, tying Erica up as Durance struggles to push Righetti into ropes and disengage from her. Down the stretch, Erica curls her left hand around Amanda's right tricep, pulling her forward into brutal, gutting right hands amidships. Amanda stunned - eyes closed, lips parted as she grunts "guh!...guh!...guh!" upon receipt. Erica heartless, just shoving-in here, pushing Amanda against ropes while plowing her. Bell: Righetti hugging her body as Erica looks her over...Durance's eyes smouldering with satisfaction...ref spooked by the aggression in Erica's eyes, warily pushes her away from Amanda.

R4: Stiff-jabbing both ways early - Erica spotting her poke upstairs and down; Amanda jabbing for Erica's upperchest, trying to back her up. Girls eventually fall in to pound each other's bellies - chins out over opposing left shoulders as arms thrash away beneath. Erica tightens up stroke in the melee, settling on a series of short, muscular hooks - just turning her shoulder into punches that pound tummy/tits/chin. RIGHETTI GOES WOBBLY BUTT! Amanda hooked onto her heels, lashes batting...she's stunned, backing up as Erica walks her down to ropes. Amanda covers up earmuff, sits in ropes: Erica squares away, then REEFS punches "HUH-OH!" in behind either elbow. All Durance on Righetti - Erica dipping side to side, her hands often pushing down on Righetti's head en-route...Amanda just soaking up the beating. With Righetti's legs numbed, Durance starts bending down, reaching in under Amanda's arms to chest her upright: Righetti eyes closed, lips parted in wonder as her legs refuse to give. Erica pushing and a-punching - getting underneath Righetti, stacking her, then plowing at her midsection hup-hup-hup. Brunette just in there snug, hammering redhead deadweight as Amanda tries to tie up. Bell: Erica pushing off all big-girl...first grin-of-aggression as Durance is turning away from cramped and haggard Righetti through 4.

R5: Erica pushing forward, running into the Righetti jab: Amanda pulverizing Erica with poke early, stepping left and initiating a turning battle midring. Erica adjusts to boxing mode...right hand at her cheek as she steps in stiff stick to Amanda's rack: Righetti in the same tight configuration as her jab seeks out Erica's face. Clockwise rotation as girls lump each other up methodically...Righetti slowly establishing tempo here. By the midway point, Amanda's in control - her jab pounding Durance into a defensive earmuff; one-twos pounding at Durance's heaving rack. Erica bobbing out on the end of poke, face punched sore by the Righetti jackhammer. Good steadying round for Amanda: she stabilizes her front, slowing the Durance momentum through 5.

Durqnce/Righetti conc.

R6: Grim brutality...Righetti in wide stance, right at her right cheek/left across her gut: Erica pushing her face into Erica's left shoulder...cue heartfelt slugging. Erica bobbing Frazier-like on the spot, bumping Righetti the left shoulder/chickenwing left elbow - thumping her ribs and tits short, cudgeling rights and lefts. Righetti absorbing, also throwing the left shoulder/chickenwing left elbow, then turning on vicious short left hooks and choppy right hands. Withering back and forth - Erica focussing on subjugating Righetti's ribcage; Amanda distributing punches head-and-body...signs of punishment-fatigue in Erica late as Amanda palms up and pushes her back while Durance is bobbing: Righetti able to walk Erica down a bit, feed her a few extra reefing hooks in behind right elbow.

R7: Grim brutality continues - same relative posture - Righetti more upright in her stance, accepting Erica's forehead on left shoulder; Erica bobbing on the spot, playing Dwight Muhammad Qawi to Righetti's Evander Holyfield. Bitter, slam-banging back and forth - punches just caroming off skulls, or spanking loud against ribs and tummies...fighters snatching savagely at one another, then bringing the mitts back quick to reset. Both girls busting up...Erica putting Righetti wobbly butt in the final minute through sheer relentless aggression!

R8: Grim brutality goes on - neither girl making herself hard to find - both happy with the arrangement in the trenches. Sound: like a couple of girls beating wet clay with baseball bats - gloves smacking and clapping away on sturdy beef. Crowd roaring as one or the other gets lit up: both sets of legs and backsides proving sturdy under hellish duress. Down the stretch - fighters trading lefts and rights to offending midsections, then coming up top: Righetti's chopping right beats Erica's swinging right to chin and DOWN GOES ERICA! Durance' back (right) knee gives way - spilling her down to her right, onto her belly...she's a stunned, but determined beauty pushing herself up off her chest. Righetti dazed, battered in neutral corner - staring in bleak acceptance as Erica fights off the KO.

R9: Erica penetrating off her jab - clubbing and clouting short rights and lefts off Righetti's head and shoulders...Amanda driven back to ropes again, fighting desperately off the apron. Shoulder to shoulder bump-n'-slug - Erica looking to beat Amanda down: Righetti keeping elbows in, shoving short lefts into Erica's gut, then jerking left uppercuts to chin - all the while keeping right hand at cheek. Durance grinding in close with that left shoulder - hooking Righetti in behind right elbow, then clouting her right ear. Back and forth, bruising fare, when midway through, Righetti bends her back into the right uppercut off the right leg and ERICA'S ROCKED! Durance all wobbly butt, legs suddenly shabby...she totters away loose and shaky, eyes foggy with hurt. Amanda snarling, bending in to kiss Erica a crashing right hand upside the head...Durance stumbling to her right, wanders chest-first into ropes - rolling back-first with dukes up weak. ON COMES RIGHETTI! Amanda stepping-to with the jab extended, then lavishing Erica a wicked right hand sidearm across the waist: Durance groaning, bunching forward face-in-gloves as Amanda pushes-in to stack. Right/left in the waist softens Erica up; right uppercut brushes her back against ropes, eyes blinking; short, clapping hook pastes the mouthpiece off her teeth. Erica's torso sloppy on her hips, lolling forward and back with the beating - hands up, but limp - Righetti just punching past the guard. Erica cringing when ripped to the body; reacting groggy when clobbered up top...it's a relentless Righetti onslaught just hammering a helpless Durance and ERICA GOES DOWN! No one punch does it - accumulation of brute-force haymakers reduces Erica, then finally sends her sprawling to her belly. That's it - Durance pounded to sleep...Righetti reeling, mouth open wide with exhaustion...that's KO9 Amanda Righetti.

After: Amanda concerned for Erica - overseeing the support as Durance is taken to her stool and revived - no hard feelings between two of the classiest and best fighters in the FCBA today. "It was a brutal fight...just like we knew it would be," Amanda admits in postfight - face puffy and sore from Erica's fists, ribs tensered up tight by her trainer. "She hurt me to the body, and that was bad news...I knew she was trying to wick away my power, and early on, she was definitely getting it done. The uppercut was there because of the way she was going at me, and I'm glad I was able to pull the trigger on it. Got her hurt every time I landed it, and that's what allowed me to turn things around. She brought out the best in me, no question. Reminded me of Nadia Bjorlin the way she just stayed dialed in and kept punching...no matter what!"
