BEFORE: "Loken's a tremendous challenge," beams Amanda in prefight. "I'm glad we got this made, because I think Kristanna's really under-rated. She's lost a little discipline - she's a little soft around the hips and tummy, which is usually the sign of a discouraged fighter - but she's still one of the most physical girls out there. I'm looking forward to it: I feel like i'm in danger and I need that to be my sharpest." Loken sullen in prefight: very cautious of the press now. "It's about time Amanda fought somebody real," Krissy mutters at one point. "Righetti's as babied as they come. She's gonna get a dose of the real world in this fight, and baby: the real world sucks." Amanda in punching purple bikini; black gloves; red hair in long braid; tan suede boxing moccasins to midcalf. Kristanna in royal blue, belted bikini; white gloves; blonde hair in ponytail with bangs framing face; white boxing booties.

During R1: Big, mobile women circle smoothly clockwise; right hands up; left hands in loose formation, ready to jab. Heavy step-and-poke - girls shelling away jabs early, exploring defences/pounding pecs. Each taking her turn penetrating, working the other with strapping wipes across tummy/clubbing blows up top into clinch. All even till late: Loken with a nice tummy-jab, looks like she's stepping out, but suddenly lunges in to catch Amanda a right to chin and RIGHETTI GOES DOWN! Lightning in a bottle - driving right sits Amanda down near ropes: she's quickly up, but blushing crimson at the prospect of coughing up the early 10-8.

R2:Righetti jabs her way in; edges left shoulder to Loken's chest, challenging the big blonde inside. Tasty bump-n'-slug: girls rotating gently clockwise while nudging and rubbing; swatting body shots set up short-shrug uppercuts as girls fight in constant contact with each other. Loken a little cuter, showing her experience: she's always pulling at Amanda's wrist to sneak home a shot; pushing on an elbow to turn Righetti; twisting to turn hooks against Righetti's jugs. Nip-tuck fighting: Loken by a whisker; Amanda upbeat to her corner, actually feels she's won the heat.

R3: Shutout Loken: Kristanna denies Amanda access inside - widening stance to pump heavy stick. Krissy klassy outside - right (back) heel up off canvas...she's pumping poke, stepping left, forcing Amanda to negotiate her way forward. Kris palming Righetti's shoulders, shunting her aside midring, shoving her off balance: not often we see Amanda get pushed around. Loken's left hand very educated: she's sprucing up Amanda's face; swatting the body; jabbing pecs through 3.

R4: Righetti up-tempos, showing her class from the outside. Amanda in wide stance, deploying jabs head, chest and body: she's taken over the space between the fighters. Dictating ring position: Righetti starts to place right hands - eyes wide as she commits on drifting punches in over Loken's left shoulder. Kris rocked at one point - jammed behind the left ear over her extended left hand: she staggers away rubbery-legged - Amanda walking her down with purpose from that point on.

R5: Loken baiting traps...stepping back in her stance, luring Amanda forward, walking her onto the left uppercut. Righetti bogging down - she's attacking, but being beaten to punches: Amanda covering up peek-a-boo in close, letting Loken get off. Kris punishing Amanda to the body: thick, batting lefts and rights pounding in behind either elbow; short, curling hooks digging at sternum. Righetti punched wobbly-butt, baby-stepping around in earmuff: Loken slugging, then shoving Amanda off, refusing to be smothered or crowded. Round ends to the sight of Amanda withstanding a series of heavy right hands: Loken pounding into the guard of Amanda, bashing away with blunt force. Krissy's corner pumping her up during the break: she's brightening, starting to believe through 5.

R6: Loken continues to pound at Righetti's waist/flanks - punishing redhead as Amanda leans forward behind mitts. Righetti answering in kind: Loken covering up peek-a-boo, grunting as Amanda slams away to waist/flanks in turn. Girls basically digging in - heads and gloves in close as they stoop forward to work - one getting off, the other suffering. Amanda stabilizes her front - outworking Loken this round, backing her up, bruising her up through 6.

R7: Righetti initiates inside now - hammering waist/flanks robusto; covering up to receive, but pushing forward immediately thereafter, making herself the aggressor. Loken grimacing: she's getting off, hitting Amanda hard, but punch for punch Righetti's stepping forward. Amanda also going to Loken's biceps for the first time: systematically trying to disarm her rival. Brutal, methodical stuff: big girls numbing each other to the body - rarely clinching...it's just bruising turn-taking, with Amanda forcing Loken out of her positions, all around the ring.

R8: Loken's front collapses: she's backing away, not getting off, allowing herself to be pushed ropeside. Righetti forward with purpose: she's energetic about Krissy's waistline, stroking it underneath the protective elbows. Heavy, clapping blows take Kristanna behind either elbow, bunching her up a-gasping: Righetti leaning in close, shrugs little left uppercuts into the overhanging shelf of Loken's tits. Amanda pushing Loken upright, stacking her: Righetti simply processing her opponent - shoving and punching her like a bag of meat. Midway through - Loken cringing forward under a methodical pounding: she wilts to all fours, panting in exhaustion. Kris beats the count, but does nothing to get off the ropes: she covers up earmuff, sitting in cables, sustaining a withering beatdown as Amanda goes strong to the bell. Krissy's eyes bleak; arms/ribcage glowing pink from Righetti's steady work.

R9: Loken feigning exhaustion, mouthbreathing, backing away...she walks Amanda onto the short left uppercut! Delayed effect in Righetti's knees...she wanders away, swaying slightly, visibly wobbly butt: Loken goes right at her! Kris bundling Amanda to ropes, pushing and stacking at her: dreadful payback beatdown ensues as Righetti forms weary earmuff to receive. Thudding, monstrous abuse applied: Kris just shellacking Amanda with big, broad wallop - just one big girl taking her time on another, slopping it on hard. Amanda beaten brutally about her flanks and biceps as Kris gets work done...Loken determined to reduce her foe - bodying up to reset whenever Righetti slumps too far forward. Bell: Loken beefy atop Amanda, refusing to get off until ref actually pulls at her.

R10: Big girls lean in hairline to hairline, shoulder to shoulder - just shrugging and swatting in thick leather. Bump-n'-bang in a phonebooth - women shouldering each other around, snatching away shortened up strokes: succulent stuff. Righetti backs Loken to ropes in steady trade, but midway through, Kris sneaks in that shrugging little left uppercut, parting Amanda's gloves. Righetti slumps forward, pressing on Kris, but not punching: SHE'S HURT! Kris eyes-wide: she swats hook-to-belly, then jerks home the short left uppercut, really picking Amanda up stiff. Righetti knock-kneed - she backs away in stupor, blinking in confusion: Loken steps-with, leans in and KISSES AMANDA A GOODNIGHT RIGHT! Kris leans in with all her might, pounding in between Amanda's mitts to fling her head VIOLENTLY back. Righetti's legs immediately stiffen - torso toppling backward and TIMBERRRRR! Amanda crashes to her back: legs out straight; elbows on canvas near her hips, hands up limp; face all pinched, numb with pain; eyes shut tight...IT'S OVER! KO10 in heartpounding fashion - Kristanna Loken!

AFter: Much maligned Loken breaking down into tears of glee when Amanda can't get off her back...it's redemption at long last for one of boxing's forgotten big women. "Everybody wrote me off for this fight," Kris sniffs in postfight, wiping at her eyes. "Amanda was too strong, too young, too everything...BUT I SHOWED HER! I'M STILL IT, BABY!" Righetti getting smelling salts, jolting awake on her stool: sight of her brings a smile to Loken's face as Krissy's loving every second of supremacy.
