Before: Milano coming back with division stepping stone Johnson to get back into the pool following the Chae rout. Johnson a small girl workhorse, quick hands and feet, not a lot of pop—but always eager, promises to give Alyssa all she can handle in prefight. Purple and lack heavy diving bikini for Amy Jo, zipper up between the breasts, ponytail—teal strong bikini for Alyssa.

During R1: Johnson going toe to toe, but Milano gets her shoulder into brunette’s chest, nudging Amy back, rolling short lefts and right sin clubbing arcs to the head and body. Bruising back and forth exchanges—Milano has the heavier mitts and takes an action first.

R2: Johnson not discouraged in the least, adds a little step to the right and keeps her arms churning—Milano starting to get chopped up to the breasts and face as she crosses her arms and tries to find a way through Amy’s blurring offense. Midway through round, Amy stepping right, clipping Milano under the chin with the left hook had Alyssa stumbling to square up, and Milano stumbles to all fours for a flash knockdown. Johnson encouraged, finishes strong as Milano covers up, not punching back—Amy Jo helping herself to Alyssa’s short rib with batting left hooks.

R3: Johnson grinning, splattering her fists across Alyssa’s shoulders and guard as Milano chugs forward. Milano getting better of toe to toe action as Johnson can’t stand her ground—but Amy Jo fighting with wild enthusiasm just won’t go away. Milano wins the round, but it’s Amy Jo doing the talking as Alyssa seems a little lethargic at the bell.

R4: Amy Jo continuing her non-stop, windmilling attack, has Milano covering up and retreating to the ropes under a hail; of nuisance punches. At the ropes, a collision of hooks goes Amt’s way as Milano’s knees buckle and Alyssa is frozen. Johnson pouring it on, little body jiggling as she swings fearlessly from the hips and Milano turns sideways to the ropes, taking punches and going glossy-eyed. Johnson hitting Milano on the side of the face with the left hand then digging a little hook over and over into Milano’s breast and ALYSA GOES DOWN! Milano stunned, on one knee, can’t get up as Amy Jo leaps away in triumph. KO4 Amy Jo Johnson!

After: Milano can’t get out of the fourth as Amy Jo records an impressive upset KO. Alyssa getting taken apart in the press as she gives it up to light-hitting Amy Jo, but Johnson deserves a lot of credit for swarming, never say die attack. Alyssa might have to face a lot of very brave fighters if she doesn’t hurt someone soon and make them back off—she’s lost the respect of her opponents.
