Before: Bold first defence for Shue—looking to address some ancient hurts at the hands of Kiana. Liz looks to be getting better with age, but Kiana’s reckless brawls have taken their toll—gap between the two not as great as it once was. Tom would be wise to box—she can’t let Shue fight off her chest the way she did against Bleeth. Kiana in black twist  tie sports top, red aerobics briefs, Liz in black two piece gymnastics gear.

R1: Tom showing off her reach , lifting the jab off her hip as she sidles to her left, right hand coiled dangerously at her chest. Shue with right hand under her chin, left across her gut bores relentlessly in, bobbing left and right to work her way past Kiana’s cobra left mitt. Chessmatch trouble the first two minutes, Kiana trying to make Shue pay as she comes in, Liz spanking sharp 2 fisted volleys off the Hawaiian’s burnished sixpack. Down the stretch, Tom on wide spread legs able to rock back out of range, rock forward with a loose limbed one-two action to eke out a close round.

E2: Liz undaunted, keeps up the pressure, hounding Kiana’s slender midsection as she walks Tom down. By the middle minute, it’s toe to toe trading, Liz bobbing her head, reefing hooks to the belly—Kiana bending forward, hands at her stomach, twisting her torso side to side to lick whip arm blows from her waist across Shue’s face. Banging trade sees Tom backed to the ropes, fighting on her heels, desperately winging side to side as Shue crosses her arms, bobs and welts tummy and ribcage with authority. Kiana breaking down a little this round as Shue’s pounding sends the Polynesian stiff legged to her corner.

R3: Mission accomplished for Shue—Tom flat footed, standing and trading out of necessity as Liz’s body bombardment saps the life out of those long legs. Liz working in her element, getting her head ion Kiana, rolling her shoulders inside to cudgel the flat stomach and rib plates with constant leather. Tom grimacing, touching Liz’s face with her left elbow, then slinging in the ship action right, touching up with the right elbow and coming back with the slapping left—Tom punching from the waist and shortening up as Shue crowd her, Liz ignoring these swatting punches, taking Kiana’s best and ripping her up inside—Tom faltering in the final minute, staggering to the ropes and clinching helplessly as Liz struggles to find slugging room. Big round for Shue as she shakes off slashing blows to her head to punish the lanky Hawaiian’s aching midriff.

R4: Tom looking ragged, hands between her hips, just looking to slug as she doesn’t seem to have the legs to do much else. Shue happy to oblige, walks in and Tom starts to clap her cheek with a slick open hand left hook in a rising lick, stepping to the left, always touching Shue with the elbow before reloading and slinging the left again. Shue ignoring the blows, but they’re landing and Liz can’t get set to punch. Tom dropping her back foor, starts to reef more powerful hooks, arching her back to rip up under Shue’s elnow, then stepping off to the left as the blonde grunts in pain. By the midway point, Kiana’s in a groove, pumping those Hearns left hooks to the body, then bending into the slinging right hand that Shue can’t afford to take. Shue breaking down, crossing her arms, but often getting slugged off balance and not getting off. Suddenly Kiana touches the left jab and bends into a screaming right hand, pounding it off Liz’ chin and SHUE GOES OUT! Liz frozen upright for a second, affords Kiana the chance to reset and drill another crashing right hand to the face, finally toppling Shue to her back. KO4 in spectacular fashion for the winner and NEW bantam champ Kiana Tom!

After: Typical Kiana Tom shoot out—taking and giving until someone can’t go on—beaming Kiana carried high on the shoulders of her handlers as she pumps her fists in triumph. Bantam title proving slippery since Electra’s iron fisted rule—Tom vowing to “clean up” the chaotic division and restore order.
