BEFORE: Carlson's scathing BLONDE! article on hotness gets her a fight: battling Kellies clearly can't stand even sharing a podium together. "Monaco," Kelly says with a hungry smile, rubbing her hands together in anticipation, "I can't wait to take her apart! You ever see those shots of an eagle swooping down and grabbing a little bunny in its talons, then flying off with the prize? That's what I am - a bird of prey - and Kelly's a cute little bunny I'm about to snatch!"

Monaco a ferocious little blonde-fighter of some repute: she's hot-cheeked at Carlson's brazen take on the fight. "Please!" Monaco groans at podium, "Please can we fight now so I can shut this tramp up? How much of her do we have to take? I thought Carter was insufferable - and she is - but this chick is like itching powder. Normally, I'd sustain a beating on a loudmouthed blonde, but if I can put Kelly on her back round 1? I'm totally doing it!"

Carlson with shoulder-length locks damp; white bikini with straps crossed in front/bra style down the back; small white work out gloves. Monaco also wet-haired; wearing heartpounding photo-shoot tan bra and panties; small black work out gloves.

Carlson backing away, using her legs: minute mark sees her sidestep-and-counter, pounding swift one-two over Kelly's left shoulder, buckling Monaco's legs.

R2: Carlson doubling her jab, hooking Monaco's jugs: blonde SO pleased with her ability to mine jug early. Monaco answering in middle minute with a blaze of swinging lefts and rights: little Mons pitchin's swift from her hips, jugs a-swinging as she smacks Carlson tic-toc upside the head. Carlson's knees buckle: she turns rabbit - scampering away with fearful eyes as Monaco hunts her down. Brunette vicious about her blonde when in range: hot, hard punching - small mitts bouncing off Carlson's golden-brown ribs as blonde covers up along aprons.

R3: Carlson showing educated feet and penetrating jab: she taps at Monaco's face, sidestepping, making brunette miss. Carlson's fists quick, accurate - she snarls as she taps straight left/rights to Monaco's face, driving the brunette backward. Vicious blonde hooks tear at brunette guts, freezing Monaco: Carlson winning grudging respect as Monaco has to back away from the heat. Down the stretch - Carlson pressing: Monaco slips blonde one-two, answers back a swinging hook to chin: CARLSON'S ROCKED! Blonde girl suddenly aswoon, helpless and staring as Monaco's fists bounce off head and shoulders, driving Carlson ropeside. Kelly C crying out, covering face in gloves: Monaco's squared away, whap-batting flanks and waist at bell. Seething Kelly M slamming home insurance late: ref pulls her off as Carlson screams in protest, stamps foot in anger, sending shivers through her breasts.

R5: Monaco continues with pressure - trusting her body and legs to withstand Carlson's cruel precision. Monaco darting in and out, changing up distance, then striking: she's catching Carlson with swift, swinging power punches off either hip. Carlson knocked hard about her head - she's stepping away flustered, looking to impose order on little brunette riot. Monaco leaping for Carlson's breasts with hooks, clawing across proud blonde chest as Kelly C looks to retreat: Carlson clearly discouraged at the constant harassment.

R6: Monaco breaks through, harms her girl as Carlson catches a bad beating. Starts early as a well-timed Monaco overhand right beats a Carlson right uppercut to the mark: blonde legs give a shimmy and Carlson's sent stumbling in fence post holes. From there, a relentless assault: Monaco pinning her ears back and going at her girl with rarely seen slugging-lust. Carlson beaten in ragged paths about the ring; slugged into the corners; battered along the ropes. Punches bouncing off Carlson's temples and ears repeatedly buckle her knees: curvy legs hold her up, but send her spilling awkwardly to ropes with Monaco in hot pursuit. Kelly M lathering up in a hot sweat - constantly jumping at Carlson, swinging at her, walking her down, crouching towards her. Wonderful stuff: Carlson beaten shabby, sitting in ropes and taking at bell...ref has to pull Monaco off again as she won't stop ripping Carlson's body.

R7: Say what you will about Carlson: she proves a warrior, engaging Monaco midring and jabbing her into compliance. Several Monaco attacks repulsed: Kelly M forced to bob and weave out on the end of Kelly C's classy stick. Jab established, Carlson digs hooks to Monaco's mouthwatering rack - deliberately humbling those glorious mounds: Monaco grumpy, covering up and ducking low after receipt. Monaco swinging in anger, coming up short as Carlson proves agile - bending back out of range, then leaning in to resume her tattooing punishment. Monaco busting up, cut at the hairline, cut inside her mouth: at the bell, it's Kelly M hurt, covering up ropeside, taking late punches as a seething blonde has to pulled off by hard working ref.

R8: Savage, tearing stuff continues - Carlson fighting with lips curled off her teeth; Monaco's eyes blazing, hair wild across her face. Both women catch hard right hands upside the head early - each ignoring punishment to press the attack. High intensity, but good skill: both girls swinging hard, but covering up after missing, moving their head as she other takes her turn. Midway through, trade in hooks goes Monaco's way: Carlson's knees buckle and straighten, leaving her shabby. Monaco pushing into Kelly C, forcing her to backpedal: little brunette hops a tuff hook to Carlson's midsection, bunching blonde up. Kelly C hits ropes hurts, folding forward around her throbbing body: Monaco hungrilly at her with hooks digging in under right elbow. Sobbing, Carlson ties up - her hands gripping tight around Monaco's right ear, pulling her head in close. Kelly M's hands are free - SHE'S DIGGING RIGHTY AT CARLSON'S PAUNCH! Carlson upright at ropes, head turned to the right, face pinched as she shouts in pain: Monaco just a-POUNDING in that flat-knuckle right. CARLSON TAKES A KNEE! Pretty blonde weepy, going to her right knee to relieve pressure: ref has to body overzealous brunette back. Shaky 8 Carlson: she's hurt to the body, discouraged...she covers up face-in-gloves, sinks butt-in-ropes as Monaco wades in. OH, THE SHELLACKING! Kelly M just REEFING hooks in behind Carlson's right elbow, then palming blonde shoulders to reset for right hands in behind left elbow. Nothing fancy - just a withering body-beating flowing brunette to blonde and CARLSON GOES DOWN! Kelly C bellying in at Monaco's feet, then rolling to her back, arms hugging at battered ribs. Carlson in tears, head lolling side to side: she's just too hurt to get off her back! KO8 in brutal fashion, Kelly Monaco.

After: Shocking savagery shown by both women...Monaco all pasted and puffy from Carlson's cruel fists...Carlson sobbing in body-shock, getting ribs tensered up in the aftermath of this bitter contest. AND MONACO WANTS MORE! Kelly M showing no mercy...as soon as she's able, she marches to blonde corner, pulling Carlson away from attending physicians for a heartbreaking walk of shame. Kelly C blubbering, wincing as Monaco's right arm around the hips steers bruised blonde torso around the ring. Monaco glaring, being rough with Carlson, posing her for photos as Kelly C cringes: little brunette refreshing her blonde-killer credentials with this hardhearted performance. One blonde taking immediate exception: Kelly Ripa mounts the apron at one point, shouting angrily at Monaco, gesturing with stabbing finger-points - K-rip not happy with Kelly's strutting treatment. Officials forced to escort Ripa away, but that's not it for the Ripster: all week long on Regis and Kelly, she tears into Monaco for walking Carlson, and for being an overbearing brunette in general.
