Before: Two former stablemates (KimZ KruZherZ) lace 'em up and face off. There had been some friction between the two in the wake of the dissolution of the stable, with Prepon telling an interviewer in the aftermath that she held Theron responsible for her failure to gain traction. She's not the first to charge Theron with "making management hold me back and promote her" but THAT quote was by Kristanna Loken - not Prepon. But Laura wasn't the first - or the last - stablemate to blame Theron for everything from Global Warming to the bad economy and some analysts think 'where there's smoke there's fire.' More than one outsider felt Theron exerted 'undue influence' over Kim's decisions. Whether Charlize really had anything to do with Prepon's being let go (and her subsequent 'disappearance' from the celebrity boxing scene) or not, the two have put it behind them and have been on good terms in the prefight publicity appearances leading up to this fight.
Prepon looking to jump start her FCBA career which saw her fall off everyone's radar after the KruZherZ Kollapsed. Prepon whipped Alicia Witt in a 'loser leaves' fight right before the KruZherZ disbanded and she hasn't had a fight since! Laura's been busy acting - and there have been rumors she's won a couple of roles rolling around on Hollywood producer's carpets with some up-and-coming starlets, but that's not the same as FCBA boxing and Laura knows the window of opportunity, once closed, can be hard to pry open again. So she's looking to this fight to generate some interest in her among some of the stables who may feel the need for a 'big woman' who can box a little bit.


"I was angry and I let my mouth get ahead of my brain," Prepon explained. "I'm pretty sure Charlize wishes she had all the influence her detractors claim; but if she had all they credit her with, why does anything bad ever happen to her? She and I talked, she understands my frustration with my boxing career and we agreed to put it behind her. She was always one of the better girls in the KruZherZ; never backbiting or gossiping about anyone. I don't think we're close friends or bosom buddies - she's got all of that she can handle with Cat Bell - but we respect one another and that's pretty good in this business."


"Sure, I knew exactly how she felt," Charlize told the media with Laura at her side. "Anyone would be frustrated not getting fights; having people duck you; your own stable not doing all it could to promote your career. Why wouldn't she be bitter? But the media lives to catch you out making some comment or simply agreeing with some theory a reporter poses in a question. If you aren't listening closely - and it's hard to do with everyone shouting at you - it's easy to be misquoted or have your remarks taken out of context. It's happened to all of us at one time or another. I always liked and respected Prepon as a fighter; she's tall and strong, your basic boxer; nothing fancy or flashy, just shows up with her lunch bucket, laces on her gloves and puts in an honest day's work to earn her purse. She's exactly the kind of fighter the FCBA should be taking care of because for every mega-star there are fifteen or twenty journeymen propping them up and making them look good. If it weren't for the Laura Prepon's of the world, there couldn't be an FCBA."


Prepon in Hollywood's version of 'the new black' - a flesh toned bikini that gives the impression of nudity! Vaherry chic, m'dear! Black gloves. Theron wearing a more traditional tawny gold thong bikini, blond hair in a messy ponytail and barefoot. Commentators note that 'since her unretirement' Charlize's outfits have gotten more revealing, as if she's trying to show how trim and fit she is and dispell the nagging rumors about her 'fitness regimen' and 'lack of proper training' which had dogged her for years, and quickly resurfaced after her return to action got off to a 'less than spectacular' start.

During R1: Neither girl came to dance! Fighters trading straight rights coming off straight jabs - all at long range. Theron eats Prepon's right flush on the chin a number of times, her knees buckling upon receipt of Laura's crunching power-packed punching. Prepon not getting away unscathed either; Charlize dialing in the range early in this fight, dropping right handed power bombs on the one-time redhead and fans at ringside treated to the sight of Prepon's backside doing a little jiggle dance whenever Charlize lands it. Both women back to their corners showing signs of wear and tear, Charlize with a little more spring in her step but the judges could well have given the nod to Prepon on her weightier connects, though it's described as 'too close to call' from the PPV announcer's table.

R2: Theron changing it up somewhat, mixing in a few more jabs this round, but choosing one from column A and one from column B using the same 'at-range' menu. Prepon's output falls as Charlie jabs for the initiative; dropping in more right hands as a result; punch turning Prepon's head and loosening her up as a consequence. Theron using her superior legs more; slide-stepping quickly, popping the jab, the jab, then coming across with that straight right. Prepon getting wrong-footed frequently, finds herself covering up much more than in the first round.

R3: Prepon knows Charlize all too well and goes looking for her body - trying to pour in her long, straight, right or whack away wide with limber left hooks. Prepon one of the better left hooks in the welter ranks, breaks it out with a vengeance; hooking Charlize like nobody since Cat Bell mid-2005! Charlize dancing, dancing, dancing, to her left; pinging away with straight lefts and rights to Prepon's face; not hurting her particularly, but doing more than enough to keep Laura from getting comfy and cozy. Prepon getting backed off late in the found; the effectiveness of her hook dropping off by consequence.

R4: Charlize off her stool to the beat of a different drummer; dancing up a storm - her legs humbling Prepon's curvy, but less educated, legs. Theron punching selectively; but taking superior angles and better positions; hands dropping as she becomes more and more confident. Far from playful, Charlize begins routinely clouting Prepon's jugs - might as well hang a sign on 'em 'plunder these puppies for fun and profit.' Prepon laboring as Charlize criss-crosses her 'nude' top, setting her well-filled to a bouncing and taking her breath away. Prepon back to the hook, backing Charlize off occasionally, but Theron likes what she sees in Laura's top and goes back there often to good effect. Theron gets a 'well done' swat on the bottom from Bell when she comes grinning back to her corner; Prepon frowning as she sits down so her corner can ice down her poor abused bosom.

R5: Prepon looking to change the dynamic, lunging/reaching for Theron's chin with 'desperation' right hands this round. Theron bending her back and/or pivoting away with her hands down at her sides; turning Prepon's flank which exposes Preps to ripostes from off angles. Laura rocked time and again as Charlize proves too leggy by half and eventually Theron puts a wobble in Prepon's butt as she continues to lure her into throwing haymakers, slips the punch making her miss and then makes her pay with hard counters with either hand. Charlize getting all 'Sugar Ray' with hands at her waist, picking the right hand up and then chopping it onto Prepon's chin which finally drops Laura to all fours at bell. Prepon up easily and in good order, but the knockdown right before the bell gives the judges more than enough to award Charlize a 10-8 edge.

R6: The 'Theron Leg Show' continues; Charlize just too leggy, too nimble, too agile for Prepon; refusing to let Laura get her feet set before touching her up from outside, then dancing away from any counter. When Charlize Theron commits to that slinging chopping right hand from her waist - it really hurts Prepon who midway is sputtering in frustration and pawing for Charlize but not getting her hands on her! Again, with time winding down, Theron rips a blockbuster barrage of rising lefts and rights into Prepon's ribs; her tummy and ends up beating her bosom like a bongo before a hook/cross combo again beats Prepon to her knees right at bell. Goes as another 10-8 round as Charlize is putting everything together against a very formidable big welter and making it look easy.

R7: Prepon ramshackle off her stool, girl looking decided shabby after two tough rounds back-to-back. Theron feints in; then slides outside to get Prepon punching groggy, then pouring in via vicious pull-counter right hands and wide, slapping, left hooks that rock Laura's head on her shoulders. Prepon stumble/staggering in a fog...and she eventually goes down under a lanky torrent of head punching - nosing in at Charlize's feet in a KO7 Theron in strong fashion!

After: Prepon got Theron's respect early, but hurting Charlize only made her fight smart (for a change?). Tonight, Charlize Theron used her legs to set up her fists in one of the best technical displays we've seen from Theron since her return to action - and for some time before that! Tonight we got to see her show us some of her 'vintage Golden Goddess' stuff.
Theron doffs her gloves, jumps up and makes her way over to Prepon's corner, leaning in checking on her former stablemate's condition. Once she's assured Laura's alright, Charlize pulls Laura to her feet, gives her a hug and raises her arm, giving the redheaded blonde(?) props for a game effort. The two women chat briefly, then Charlize gives her a hug, a swatk on the bum, and heads back to her own corner where she's swept up and embraced by a jubilant Cat Bell who recognizes an outstanding fight when she sees one. Off to the side, Sharon Stone is seen giving Prepon the 'stink-eye' - for some unknown reason.
"Whew!" Charlize sighs when she reaches the podium. "You know, after Emmie Vaugier, Laura looked like she was moving in slo-motion. I'm going to get myself a greyhound to spar with for my next few fights," she joked. "I shouldn't laugh about Preps because she's a quality welter - one who should be a perennial top ten. I don't know exactly why she isn't, but a big part of it is probably because she's never been able to get herself established in a stable. There's several outfits who could use a top quality welter and they'd be remiss if they didn't grab Laura before someone else does.
"Tonight I really could feel it; I had everything working after the first round. I doubt there is a woman at either light or welter who could have handled what I was bringing out there. Laura did a great job early, but in the fifth I think I took her heart a little bit. I could see she was getting a bit desperate and took advantage of her."
Prepon's face a little flushed as she takes her place after Theron's little show and tell. "She really did a number on my body tonight," Laura said, wincing as she took a breath. "I'd never expected her to get after my boobs the way she did - haven't seen her that focused on a bosom since Cat Bell joined the KruZherZ. It was like the old Bell-Theron fights from years ago; or when Charlize tore into Jeri Ryan's rack. Must've been fun for her and the fans, but definitely not from my side of the brassiere!
"I'm going to take all the credit for 'resuscitating' Charlize's career tonight," Prepon chuckled. "It's the best she's looked in the ring in a long time and I want you all to be sure and say it was all because of me forcing her to step it up a notch."
