BEFORE: Yvonne favoured once again...against a woman she's never beaten in a boxing ring. "I'm better than Mary at everything from the 100 metre dash to hopscotch," Yvonne insists in prefight, "it just makes no sense that I'm not dominating her when we fight. That changes now: my title's on the line, and I won't lose that to Mary. Everyone's telling me what a sensational athlete I am, how fit and what a stunner...I'm going to project all of that onto Winstead - all my strength, all my beauty, all my cunning...if I lose to her now, I don't deserve the belts. But I won't lose to her - not now, not ever again." MEW grinning throughout, obviously enjoying Yvonne's discomfort. "This all sounds REALLY familiar, doesn't it?" Mary chuckles at podium. "Yvonne's always so determined in prefight, and then we get in there, and I start stripping her illusions away one by one. She is a fabulous athlete, and a gorgeous blonde with a killer body...but I'm the better fighter. It hurts her to hear that, I know - but you look at the record and you'll see it. She's a pampered show-poodle; I'm a junkyard dog...whaddya think's gonna happen?" Mary in yellow bikini; black gloves; hair in bouncy little ponytail with bangs bracketing face. Yvonne in baby blue Chuck bikini (season 3); white gloves; slick low ponytail."

During R1: Yvonne stepping with Pernell Whitaker balance - planting on the front (left) foot; dropping the right leg back, then sliding back half a step as Mary encroaches. Bat-bat cuffing hook from Yvonne, limber to Mary's right ear; choppy little right hand up the middle, then a slick side-step left: Strahovski lithe, turning Mary clockwise midring. Winstead bobbing at the waist - coming forward in earmuff: she's getting pre-empted, nibbled, flanked. Midway through, Yvonne tattoos Mary a crisp one-two straight up the middle, adding on the hesitation left uppercut to chin: Winnie's knees buckle as blonde girl makes a statement. Breezy boxing to the finish line: Yvonne hard-eyed, staying in charge all limber and quick, dots/cuffs/chops her way to shutout.

R2: More classy, lithe action from Yvonne - legs're springy, but never running; elbows in; hands up. Straho pivoting to her left, turning Mary like a top: bat-bat left hooks cuff the Winstead right ear; pesky little backhand jabs knock at Mary's pate. Wicked, lathering, sidearm right hands lick at Mary's ribs - taking her behind left elbow and carving her across her front: Yvonne's blue eyes heartless as she strokes sturdy brunette chassis. Pressure from Mary is faded by well-balanced Yvonne: little slide-backs and steps outs, pivots and feints keeping Winstead in check. BREAK: Mary told to "step up the intensity" by her trainer - "this kid's comin' at you hard, Mare."

R3: MEW bobbing her head while stepping the left foot in - ripping left hooks as she straightens up into Yvonne. Straho disrupted - the more disorganized she gets, the more the fight opens up: brawling ensues. Middle minute: looping exchanges - girls dippin' and twistin', hauling wide, strapping licks onto the foe. Mary sweeps a right hand - misses: Vonnie answers a looping sidearm right, kissing Mary's right temple and WINSTEAD'S ROCKED! Mary wobbled, blinking, but determined: she stumbles forward, winging wallop...Yvonne steps out, starts to reorganize her legs. Straho roaming to her right - pinpricking Mary swift jabs to face - blonde girl touching her brunette with pep. Final minute - LOOPING RIGHT HAND, YVONNE STRAHOVSKI! Mary clapped upside the noggin...she blunders to her left, stricken, turns to her right, trips over her own feet and BOUNCES TO HER BUNS! Yvonne crying out "YES!" Winstead in gobsmack - gingerly pulling herself up for ragged 8. ON COMES STRAHO! Vonnie on with sharp, straight, left/rights up the middle, punching Mary's face! Winstead's head jacking back - hands up but limp...she's turning her left side into ropes in swooning earmuff! Vonnie leaning in close - her left hand braced atop the ledge of Mary's buttocks while CHOPPING in short, hacking right hands. Vonnie: face tight with savage KO-lust; right hand pitchin' from the shoulder in little hammer drops onto Mary; blonde buns shuddering side to side - Straho's right foot well back, anchoring the barrage. POOR MARY'S TAKING! Ref leaning in, about to stop it: BELL! Winstead beaten blubbery - rolling back-to-ropes in wonder. Yvonne SEETHING, glaring at her foe, and DRAWING RIGHT THUMB ACROSS THROAT! Vicious gesture draws shocked gasps from crowd - Yvonne snarling, body trembling from adrenaline rush, SO CLOSE to finishing Mary!

R4: Yvonne engaging - crowding in close behind raised guard - working Mary short uppercuts/cuffing hooks. Winstead gobbling it up, answering back: MEW ringing both hands off willowy blonde flanks, chucking a healthy left shoulder into blonde breasts to back Vonnie up. Second and third minutes largely fought toe to toe at ropes - Strahovski's back to strands. Mary fighting off Vonnie's chest, bumpin' and scuffin' for hardworking points. Bell: Mary's turn to make hard eye contact, as if to say: "serves you right for the throat slash gesture".

R5: Vonnie still willing to close and work, but she's not pushing in - preferring to get off, slide-step out and walk Mary into extra. Straho featuring that limber, cuffing hook wide to Mary's ear/shoulder - then jotting her the chopping right hand off the pate/shrugging left uppercut to chin in close. Winstead trudging into hurt, ignoring it: she's taking 2 or 3 for the chance to lash one thick body shot into Vonnie's ribs.

R6: Mary stepping in with the jab - disrupting Yvonne's own stick. Mary bobbing as she steps in, then straightens up into powerful hooks off the front (left) leg: Vonnie belted loud to body/jaw in relentless brunette attacks. Straho scowling, fighting well in reverse: she's able to touch Mary jabs/walk her into sneaky little right hands - but Winnie's the boss. Mary's pressure/aggression sees her bully points out of Yvonne through 6.

R7; Pendulum swings back to Vonnie: her jab, footwork controlling Mary. Sliding back half a step, dragging that front (left) foot - Vonnie's batting away cuffing hooks/dropping tidy right hands - systematically busting Mary up. Pivoting to either side, Vonnie turns her girl, blunting Mary's headlong rushes. Down the stretch, WHACKING sidearm right takes Mary across her gut, bunching her up: Vonnie dips in close, arches her back and picks Winstead up a glorious close-in left uppercut to chin. Mary sighing upon receipt - chin pressed in and to the Winstead left - Mary's eyes closed, lips pursed. Winstead's curvy legs hold her up, but she's momentarily out on her feet for just a second: Strahovski's buttocks fairly ringing as she stands up into the shot. BREAK: Straho's trainer tells her: "Total domination Vonnie: own her hip-to-head. She's ready to go!"

R8: Mary clawing her way back - showing her compete! Looping overhand rights; bob-and-sock hooks off the step-in...whirling attack has Strahovski scattered. All for naught: Down the stretch, Vonnie giving ground with the slide-step retreats, walking Mary in - blonde girl touches brunette a cuffing hook wide, then drops a slap-chop right to right side of Mary's face (Straho's right heel up off canvas as she drives in). MARY'S SMOTE! Winstead whipsawing on liquid hips, covering up peek-a-boo: she's helpless as Yvonne unleashes a shredding barrage. Winnie strapped and licked to ropes, limp and suffering as Straho squares up/lathers away robusto to steal the points late!

R9: Mary sucks it up and COMPETES! Winstead all busted up, eyes puffy, lips swollen...she paws her way in with the left hand, pasting Vonnie righty to back blonde to ropes. Mary pushing-in strong - junk-yard dog roughing up her poodle this round: head/shoulders/pushing forearms in amongst bashing punches. Yvonne grumpy, getting worked over as Mary shifts her head from one blonde shoulder to the other, constantly keeping weight on Straho. Short, stuffing work suffocates Yvonne, mauls her for points: Mary has to be pulled off after bell sounds.

R10: Mary with a good first minute, walks Yvonne down, clubs away at her. Straho giving ground, pivoting to sidestep: she gradually diffuses the pressure, jabbing Mary into compliance. From minute mark on, it's Vonnie using the slide-step back - always in balance - batting catspaw left hooks cuffing Mary's right ear as she blunders forward; short right hands bounce off pate; clean up left hooks rip at Mary's belly. Final seconds, Yvonne picks Mary up a tidy right uppercut to chin...Vonnie pivoting to her right as Mary folds forward behind her gloves...blonde girl bending in and delivering the vicious overhand right to the hip/kidney pioneered by Cassie Scerbo on Kris Kreuk. Savage lick crippling Mary, nearly putting her knee down: she's paralyzed, covering up earmuff as Vonnie swats cuffing hooks to skull at bell. Comes back UD10 for the winner and STILL champ: Yvonne Strahovski!

AFter: Mary ashen faced, blinking away tears from the hellish kidney slash...Vonnie utterly unrepentant as she downs her greatest rival at long last. "Mary is tuff, I'll grant her that," Yvonne admits in postfight, "but I refused to lose to her tonight. If she's honest, she'll admit I whipped her, and if I'M honest, I'll say I'm disappointed that I didn't stop her, because I should have. I left a calling card on her hip at the end - a legal punch if you check - to let her know I haven't forgotten about being walked, and that her future is bleak. She jumped out to a lead on me head-to-head, but it's heartbreak and despair for her, from here on in
