Before: (Back Stateside—competing broadcast) Alba the new wunderkind of the flyweights—fiery temper and ‘tude outside the ring contrasting with her icy, relentless assassin persona inside. Jessica with a Fernando Vargas type blend of quickness and power can really take a step up the pound for pound ladder with a demonstrative crushing of perennial flyweight contender Doherty. Shannen with the vast edge in experience, built her reputation with loose limbed KO power, but she can box a little too and is as close to her prime as any veteran out there. Shannen in unique lingerie—leopard print short sleeves crop top and panties looks (see this month’s FHM magazine), Alba in black turtle neck crop top, short sleeves, black sprinters trunks—small gloves for both girls.

 

During R1: Shannen stalking, hands low—Jessica stepping smartly to open spaces, getting off quick combinations and moving to either side. Brisk smacking exchanges—down the stretch Alba has Doherty marching into punishment as the champ takes the round with trigger fisted accuracy..

 

R2: Shannen obviously going with pressure, continues to step forward, lifting her jab off her hip as Alba snaps a jab from her temple—Doherty getting the rhythm this rounds, slaps over the top with a whip armed right hand, grazing chin as Alba pulls away.

 

R3: Jessica making a statement with those young legs, easily wheeling around the challenger, jabbing her way out of jams as Doherty tries to corner. Midway through, Alba backs to the ropes and it’s a mistake—Doherty sweeping Jessica’s right hand away at the wrist and welting hard right hands to the body—Alba cringing, stumbling to her right as Shannen steps with her, uses the left to open up the body and pounding the torso with shuddering blasts, It’s raw brutal power—Doherty loading up every punch and hammering Jessica into a stupor, right hand after right hand AND ALBA GOES DOWN! Jessica on her hands and knees at the ropes, stunned, hurt to the body—Doherty stalks back and forth like a caged animal as the ref issues an 8. Jessica up, but the cool is gone—she’s fighting scared, staggering away as Doherty walks her down to the bell.

 

R4: Doherty rampaging, opening with looping right hands, bringing it over the top, or stepping to the bright to curl the uppercut in between Alba’s mitts from the side. Jessica off balance, trying to re-establish equilibrium, but Shannen breaking her down with sheer slugging enthusiasm. Jessica standing her ground in the last minute avoids a shutout—crowd roars as the two taut sluggers trade toe to toe at the bell.

 

R5: Alba regaining composure, goes back to basics—jamming her jab into Shannen’s breasts, pounding a hard straight right hand to the sternum, and finishing up top with a biting hook on the teeth, Doherty often rocked onto her heels, circles away, walks right, then backtracks left behind her jab as Alba forces the fight.

 

R6: Both girls gambling—mid ring, feet wide—swaying in and out, side to side as hey pull haymakers into one another with plenty of leverage. Albs giving away her biggest advantage—mobility—Doherty has the timing down by the final minute, leaning into satisfying right hands on the jaw that turn Alba’s head—champ coming back a little glassy eyed after she soaks it up.

 

R7; Competitive round, both girls standing flat footed and putting hurt on one another, but this is clearly Doherty’s fight. Shannen useful with her left hand, palming at Alba’s shoulder or pulling down that bright wrist—Doherty just pouring in right hands to the chest and chin, extending on the blows, then stepping in as Alba falters. Jessica spitting blood by the final minute—she’s soaking up flush Doherty bombs, getting punched step-by-step around the ring as the fight stars to take on that late night parking lot feel.

 

R8: Shannen’s gotten into the kids head. Alba just wants to pay Doherty back, standing in, forgetting to jab. Leading with hooks and bending into careless rights that do occasionally sting the challenger. Doherty blocking well with the left, is able to stand in front, line Alba up and crack her good—right hands from Shannen busting the champ up, repeatedly driving her to the ropes. Especially effective for Doherty cudgeling overhand rights across the body—Alba just freezing up when she takes these punches—Shannen brushing the way clear with her left and laying on the leather with the right at the bell.

 

R9: Credit to Alba—Shannen’s been clouting her all night long and the champ’s still there. Jessica uptempoing, leaves Doherty a step behind this round. It’s fearsome, shattering back and forth—both girls putting 2 and 3 punches together and ending sequences with gaudy hooks or curling right hands that seem to momentarily drain the opponent. Doherty getting the worst of it for much of the round, pounds her way into the champ’s trunks.

 

R10: Jessica’s young legs roll up a weary challenger this round—Doherty open mouthed, gloves at her chest—she’s unable to do much more than turn and stay square to the target. Alba bouncing left, drilling jabs to snap back Doherty’s available face and by the middle minute, Jessica’s stepping into a cracking right hand on the teeth that jerks Shannen a quarter turn to her right. Final minute—Alba pounding Shannen with a blur of wide lefts

and rights—Doherty forced to the ropes and breaking down badly. Alba stepping in and out on her foe, doubling up on the hook as Shannen sputters, then bending in and down behind payoff right hands that leave Doherty staring, Seconds left, Alba leans into a beautiful curling right, spanking it off Shannen’s face, following through nice and low as Shannen sags defenceless against the ropes, Bell sounds to prevent what would almost certainly have been a knockout—dazed challenger is lead back to her corner and tended as Alba struts the ring in triumph. Short lived celebration as the winner and NEW flyweight champ is announced: UD10 Shannen Doherty.’

 

After: Doherty on her stool unaware of the upset—she won’t know she’s the champ until the haze lifts some 15 minutes later in the dressing room. Alba in shock—face badly swollen, ribs deeply bruised—she’s taken an awful beating in this one but had assumed Doherty had come up short. Feminine machismo costs the young champion dear—lured into a slugging contest and bested fighting Doherty’s fight.
