BEFORE: (Not part of the PPV: same day-of out on the beach) Krista re-establishing her blonde-slayer cred on the beach with a hammering dismissal of up-and-coming Melissa Keller: Laura's not impressed. "Krista's idea of 'hardnosed' - the cheap fouls; kicking a girl when she's down - the beach doesn't need that. She thinks I'm soft because I'd never treat an opponent that way, but she's wrong. I'll prove to Krista and to everyone else that beach fighting today is just as tuff as it ever was - TUFFER, because we don't need cheap tricks to get girls beat."

Allen swaggering - former Baywatch beauty and current serious actress brings a tremendous legacy of open-air boxing expertise to the table. "Laura's going to get a hard, hard lesson," Krista smiles in prefight comments that are carried on open-mic to the surrounding bleachers. "If Brittany Daniel couldn't hit with me, this chick doesn't stand a chance. I stand by the comments I've made all along: Laura Vandervoort wouldn't have been able to compete on the beach when I ruled out here, and she's not going to be competitive now."

Vandervoort in midnight blue bikini from Into The Blue 2; white gloves; corn-blonde hair soft, long, straight, loose. Krista in red bikini top with diagonal slashes of white, solid red bottoms; white gloves; dark brunette ponytail with bangs framing face. Girls exchanging searing scowls and pouts, squinting in the hot noon-day sun. Bleachers around converted beach volleyball court - standard ring set up.

During R1: Cautious jab-and-stepping - girls rotating clockwise. Minute mark, Krista with a quick slip under Laura's jab, answers back a rocket-right to chin and Vandervoort's hurt! Laura stepping in fence-post holes - Krista attacking from off blonde left shoulder, lashing hooks to Laura's tummy, jug. Vandervoort swept to ropes - she forms earmuff, grimacing as Krista revs it up. Slashing beatdown, Kris to Laura: Allen limber, long arms shivering upon batting contact with Laura's sleek flanks. Having tapped the sides, Kris works her way inside, jerking left uppercuts through the middle, snatching her mitt off blonde tummy, jugs. Laura groaning, punched upright: she eats a pasting right - blonde head tossing over top rope, then lolling forward as Kris fits succulent left hooks to quivering blonde river. On and on - Kris resetting with smart palm-shoves against Laura's shoulders, staying on that tanned blonde body, then punching her face to rock Vandervoort to ropes. Bell: Kris pulls a clawing hook across Laura's tender breasts - brunette's lips curled in a hardhearted grin at the cheap touch.

R2: Midring - supple fighters bending at the waist, slugging from wide-stances - bendy-backed girls putting on a lissome show. Laura hurt by a smooth right to her chin: Kris proving a little quicker, a little more accurate in the exchanges. Allen going body immediately upon seeing Laura's distress: brunette trying to cripple her foe prior to finishing her. Slender-strong brunette arms shivering as tic-tock body whacking beats Laura ropeside: Vandervoort just sick about it, forming ragged earmuff once again. Krista humming - hands low, body crouching forward: she lifts a left uppercut to Laura's hip - just a tap - then picks Laura up the more serious left uppercut thick in the breasts. Blonde grunts as she's picked up: Krista resets, pops hips-right, snatches a vicious, snappy left hook off quivering blonde waist. Laura shouting in pain, dropping immediately to all fours: Kris leans down snarling, right elbow up high - OH she drives in righty at Laura's flank as ref moves in late. Warnings for scowling Krista; achy looks and pouts from Laura as she struggles up all panting and vexed. Down the stretch, Vandervoort firms at the ropes, catching Kris a pushy right/left on the face as Allen's slugging at Laura's head. Continued trade up top sees Vandervoort swap on even terms: she steps away from ropes, backing Krista to midring - crowd on it's feet as lithe beauties start slinging it up lanky.

R3: Krista fetches Laura's tits a slinging right hand; Vandervoort turns Krista's head aside with a receipting right hand. Back and forth - girls flat-footed, hands at hips - they're just leaning in and out, pulling right hands up and sloshing 'em across, trying for hurt. Krista hit again upside the head, then again: Laura finding a home for these bandy-armed, rangy rights, starting to shake her brunette. Allen staggering away, long lashes blinking, lips pouting: she's wobbly butt, suddenly confused. Laura attacking on an angle - coming at Kris from outside her left shoulder: whippy left hooks slap at Krista's breasts or tummy as blonde herds brunette to ropes. Kris hits shabby, covering up face-in-gloves, elbows in: she's got right shoulder against ropes, just slumping there. Laura snarling, teeth bared: she lashes hook after hook against Krista's prepared defences, punching brunette's back flat to ropes. Outside-in bolo uppercut carves in, splitting Krista's mitts, picking up her face: she slumps back into ropes, defences coming apart and LAURA'S POURING IN! Blonde just SWEEPING it to Krista - left hands slapping at Krista's mitts to bat them out of the way; right hands pouring in, bashing off Krista's face. ALLEN'S IN STUPOR! Kris helpless at ropes, staring into Laura's slinging right hands; Vandervoort's weight forward, right leg well behind her, bunching up right buttock as she pushes in hard off ball of right foot. THE REF STEPS IN! Krista swooning, defenceless - she's just taking punches, curvy legs holding her up so Laura can pile on insurance punishment. TKO3 in slamming fashion - Laura Vandervoort!

After: Vandervoort bellowing - hands high as she angry-stomps the ring: could be her biggest win to date as she stops a legit beach legend. Krista blubbering weakly in referee's embrace: never in her wildest dreams did proud Allen see herself going out to Laura's punching. "Wonder if that was 'hard' enough for her?" trumpets a glowing Vandervoort in postfight. "I'm so sick of girls like Krista who think being tough is the same as being mean. Being tough is taking your beating, getting yourself together and stopping your girl. She had a chance to show real heart, real toughness, and look what happened: 'hard' Krista turned into 'brittle' Krista right here on the sand. Notice what I'm not doing? I'm not kicking her in the ribs or putting knees into her tummy, because I've already made her quit and..." ROLLING CHOP-BLOCK FROM BEHIND! Laura bent backwards as Krista barrel-rolls in, taking blonde legs out from beneath her. Vandervoort crashing to canvas - she's crying out in shock, hands immediately reaching for her right knee as seething Kris scrambles up, chest heaving, eyes blazing: she desperately wants to start stomping poor Laura, but has to high-tail it as Foxfire fighters rush the ring.
