BEFORE: Schilling bright-eyed, pretty in her debut press conference. "It's a thrill," T says of the experience, "but it'll be even better once I've got the W. I want to hit the ground running - Carpenter's a stepping stone and she knows it: I have to separate myself from her!" Carpenter just as eager - young brunette anxious to get traction in one of boxing's most competitive spaces. "I'd say my style is 'extra feisty'," Jen says at the podium. "I've been sparring in some good camps, just biding my time. Went hard rounds with Laura Vandervoort recently, and if she's honest, she'll tell you I got the better of her. I think that'll be more than enough to get me by Schilling!" Taylor in classy midnight blue bra/panties combo with satin finish and white lace trim; small white gloves; white boxing booties to mid-calf with tassles. Jen in baby blue bra and hipster-fit panties; small navy mitts; white running shoes no socks; scrappy ponytail.

During R1: Nasty shock for Taylor early: Jen comes out BANGIN'! Rangy, churning stuff from Carpenter, hacking and clouting at Schilling as blonde stands stiff behind raised mitts, trying to ride it out. Jen vs Taylor's tummy: hacking lefts and rights that chop in from either side, gouge palm-up, then twist to palm-down as Jen's following through. Jen vs Taylor's waist/flanks: swinging palm-down tic-tac-toe, bracing the blonde. Jen vs Taylor's rigid peek-a-boo guard: Carpenter scraping uppercuts against the forearms; hacking at the ears. Jen wiry, brawny throughout - tearing Schilling up, then nudging her off with extended left elbow. Schilling clipped VERY hard at points, beaten soundly about her body and head: firm, fit little chassis hangs in firm as Carpenter romps bell to bell.

R2: Taylor rights the ship early. Schilling with shoulders hunched, dukes up, elbows in...she's popping a nice jab, edging in close, then looking for close-in, short-jerk uppercuts from either mitt. Carpenter picked up tits and chin, then blocked as she answers wide: Taylor showing good compact discipline in the exchanges. All for naught as exchange of hooks in final minute goes Jen's way: Schilling's knees buckle...she staggers out of the collision, eyes wide/watery. Carpenter pressing blonde to ropes, then beating her savagely: Schilling paralyzed, stooped forward face-in-gloves as Carpenter lathers slender flanks. Bell: Jen glowing, raising her right hand en route to her corner; Schilling cramped, grumpy from hard brunette punching through 2.

R3: Taylor chips away. Nothing fancy: good rigid elbows-in guard; tapping jab to locate; stiff, clipping uppercuts from either hand off the front (left) foot as Taylor leans in close and works tidy. Jen gobbling leather - nibbled and scraped about her chin, then bumped off as T gets left shoulder working to Jen's chest. Hooks to Jen's ribs/waist finish the project: blonde girl showing compact class in shutting down brawling brunette.

R4: Jen continues to pound away at the body - lashing rangy licks to hips/ribs/waist. Carpenter forward aggressively, being the boss, but she's wide and a little gangly here: plenty of opportunity for tight-punching blonde counters. All pays off late as Taylor hunkers down to receive body blows on her elbows, then pump-jerks a pair of short left uppercuts to chin, followed by a swiping hook to liver and short, straight right to mouth. Brisk, tic-tac-toe punching stuns Jen, puts her on her heels: brunette lips parted in astonishment as Taylor erupts. Steady blonde clean up sees Schilling steal the round: she's upright, letting her hands go in tidy swats, just working Jen over along ropes at bell.

R5: Jen pounds away up top - rangy rights and lefts pelting off blonde head-and-shoulders, buffetting Schilling to ropes. Carpenter showing some savvy here: she rakes Schilling lusty, then steps out, but lifts a calling-card jab into Taylor's mouth to pre-empt the receipt. Schilling startled, eats a right hand to chin, leans back into ropes and suffers another pelting as Jen releases, then steps back. Schilling belted and controlled - Carpenter working in and out, keeping blonde at bay with clever little jabs at the end of brawling sequences: Taylor can't get off. Minute in, HARD right hand strafes Taylor's face, stunning her, loosening her. Schilling's guard parts, hands drooping: she's stroked a vicious hook to cheek, then poked a rangy straight right, knocking her limp to ropes. Taylor's legs stiff, but torso lolling, hands dropping: she's a helpless vixen, facing into punishment as JEN UNLEASHES! Rangry, wiry leather - Jen brawling with unabashed glee: wide hooks/drilling straight rights pasting poor Taylor's glassy-eyed face and bringing the ref in quick. TKO5 Carpenter as Schilling is stopped at ropes, slumping into official's embrace while Jen leaps away hooting.

AFTER: Carpenter all a-dimple: stopping a classy managed fighter in her debut has Jen bubbling. "I revved it up on her," Jen explains, "really tore up that gut of hers: I don't think she was ready for my ferocity. I hear Jill Wagner might want some, and I hope so, especially since I just reduced her stable mate to tatters. And Laura Vandervoort's on my list: she's pretty, but pretty don't win fights and I know I can bounce her. Really, I'm just anxious to get at someone - ANYONE. I feel like it's my time to shine, and I'll take on all comers!"
