BEFORE: Grace Park gives up pounds to get Jill Wagner - an easy call as far as Grace is concerned. "It's quality, not beef, that matters," Grace shrugs. "Jill's lurking around Biel, Cuoco, Larter and those girls, but she's doesn't have the confidence to try them directly. Stepping to me is a big mistake, because I'd fight any of them any time - I'm not scared to give up weight, because I know how well conditioned and hard-hitting I am. I plan to paste Jill out and expose her - simple as that." Jill an athletic, lithe lightweight in the Krista Allen mold...can she still make bantam strong? "I'll definitely make weight at 120," Wagner grins. "It's important to be nimble against Grace, because even though she's a toothpick, she's a rangy, wiry toothpick who works incredibly hard in her fights. I respect her - I know she's a bantam weight, but she's very tall and lean, and even if she doesn't hurt you with the first punch, she'll wear out in combination. I want to get to her early - showcase on her slender ribcage and break her down. Grace won't be nearly as dangerous if I punish her body consistently in this fight." Jill in silver/white bikini with satin finish against dark-tan skin; loose-curled brown hair; white gloves. Grace in tie-dye bikini (baby blue/yellow horizontal bars) white gloves; hair damp, loose. At ring instructions, Jill visibly more robust; Grace a little taller, more sinewy.

During R1: Jill rotating clockwise, looking to jab Grace's body. Jill turning-with, jabbing up top, then flick-flicking the jab to keep Jill occupied. Grace establishing her work-rate early - working off the jab to whack buggy-whip right hands in Jill's left flank; scouring palm-down hooks across Jill's ribs just beneath the jug-line; scraping the rangy right uppercut against the front bars of Jill's forward-deployed guard. Wagner covering up, inching forward - she's getting bathed in leather, just trying to find spots to catch Grace power counters. Mostly Grace Park till late: erupting from crouch, Jill finally turns Park's chin aside via jolting hook. Grace sent stamping back on her heels, eyes wide and staring - she's saved from Jill's storming follow up by bell.

R2: Jill quicker to close on still-shaky Grace - viciously going ribcage with whirling palm-down rights and lefts. Grace grunting, bunching up: elbows in tight, hands up. Jill loving it on Grace - whacking her two rubbery right hands in above left hip; snap-hooking that paunch; dipping left and reaching a hook in behind Grace's left elbow. Park's legs wonky, but she's digging in: firm left uppercut sticks into Jill's solar plexus, halting her assault. Jill stymied, but only for a moment - she bobs on the spot, making Park miss swinging right/lefts over top, then answering back a roaring hook clean to chin. Park staggered once again - long, lean legs spasming/stamping in fence post holes. Desperately hurt Grace sets her feet, punches right cross/left hook: Jill leaning in, punches-with, kissing Grace goodnight via right cross/left hook that beats Park's to the mark. GP going out on her feet, right (back) knee collapsing to canvas - then pitches forward into Jill's thighs, en route to canvas. Wagner stepping back, beaming: that's KO2 Wagner in impressive fashion!

AFter: Jill confirms her lightweight credentials - proving too rugged for slender-limbed Park at the catchweight. "Maybe the weight-loss might have hurt me in the later rounds," Jill speculates in postfight, "but I was just too explosive and dynamic for her early. I could see why she hurts so many bantamweights, but I was taking her shots well: she really needed to be chipping away at me all night long, and I refused to let her do that!"
