BEFORE:

"I have no doubt I can fight at this level," says Perdita with a smile. "And, it's wonderful to finally get the chance."

"I think she can fight at this level, too," says Hunter with a nod. "What she can't do is beat ME."

ROUND ONE:

O'Dell: "Back at ringside and that's 'Scary Monsters' by David Bowie, and that's the star of 'Magnum P.I.', the lovely Perdita Weeks on her way to ringside..."

McCarthy: "Now, O'Dell, we ALL know Tom Selleck is the star of 'Magnum, P.I.'..."

Cassie: "Back when YOU were young, maybe..."

McCarthy: "Back when...YOU LITTLE..."

Tess: "Good one, BFF..."

McCarthy: "Shut UP, Walmart!"

O'Dell: "Drink up, boys, and drink in the lovely Ms. Weeks as she's helped off with the robe to reveal a black bikini and a body that's clearly trained hard for this one. And, that's 'Shake It Out' by Florence and the Machine, and here comes 'The Ventura County Volcano', Hunter King!"

McCarthy: "These nicknames Weirdo comes up with are HORRID. Nothing like 'The Chin Checker' or 'Mac The Knife'! Those are CLASSICS and CLASSY!"

O'Dell: "King into the ring and helped off with the robe by Jewel and Neve. She's wearing that aqua number we've seen before, and has also clearly been training hard for this one. And, the ladies are about ready to go. Time for some picks. Tess likes Hunter. Mac?"

McCarthy: "Weeks has ZERO FCBA wins. Making her a typical Dancing Hooker opponent. King."

O'Dell: "Cassie?"

Cassie: "I agree with Tess!"

O'Dell: "Unanimous. Let's see if the ladies are right. Blondes get to it right off the bell. Weeks not shy about trading with King and Hunter more than willing to fight on these terms and PERDITA ROCKS HER! King takes a HUGE right hook from the Brit and Weeks is ALL IN!"

McCarthy: "We might be watching the end of this Dancing Hooker's Front Street career!"

O'Dell: "Weeks stepping to, backing up a wobbly Hunter. King giving ground, covering up, definitely in some serious trouble right her. Perdita with nothing to lose, so she's letting the hands go and throwing caution to the proverbial wind here. She's got King trapped on the ropes now..."

Tess: "Tell you what, Weeks knows how to make an entrance..."

O'Dell: "No doubt about it. Coming down the stretch in the first. King leaning back in the ropes in a high guard as Perdita has at her. Hunter trying to get to the bell and Weeks looking to stop that from happening. Looks like Hunter's going to make it there. Five seconds to go. One final flurry from Perdita, and there's the bell. Weeks. Wide."

Cassie: "Couldn't have asked for a much better start than that."

ROUND TWO:

O'Dell: "Weeks after King early, but Hunter firming up quickly and banging right back and we've got a FIREFIGHT in the middle of the ring! These two not wasting any time on tactics so far. They're just going at it and in a very big way! Tons of heavy shot being traded, Mac..."

McCarthy: "Weeks doesn't have anything to lose here, so, why not?"

O'Dell: "Might well be the thinking on her part. Not sure what's gone into King's tactics, except, perhaps, for the fact that she's not going to allow Perdita to fight lead. Either way, it's led to quite the slugfest here in the second. GOOD right hand by Hunter and WEEKS fires back with one of her own..."

Cassie: "If anyone was wondering whether or not Perdita could punch..."

O'Dell: "That question certainly answered, anyway. Twenty seconds to go in an action-packed second. Blondes still right at one another. Nobody taking a backward step. Sweat flying as Weeks lands a hard combination and King fires right back, sending Perdita back a step at the bell! Close round. Hunter."

Tess: "And, we're even at 19."

ROUND THREE:

O'Dell: "Third underway and we're right back to hot tossing in the middle of the ring. Neither fighter willing to give the other anything. Weeks a BIG combination that backs up King, and Perdita stepping forward and letting the hands go. She's got the younger woman in reverse now, and aims to keep her there..."

Cassie: "King's not hurt, but Weeks sending salvo after salvo at her, keeping her on the defensive..."

O'Dell: "Well, we know TWO things about Perdita weeks after two plus rounds. One, she can hit, and, two, she's FUN to watch. Brit ANOTHER flurry, backs King up again. Hunter countering here and there, but mostly being preempted by some seriously effective offense from the older blonde..."

Tess: "King needs to get off her back foot here..."

O'Dell: "Most certainly does, but can't seem to do it. Weeks continuing to back her up, grab canvas, then back the younger blonde up some more. Ten seconds to go in this stanza. ANOTHER good combination from Weeks. King covering up as we approach the bell. And, there it is. Perdita. Wide."

McCarthy: "And, Weeks back in the lead 29-28."

ROUND FOUR:

O'Dell: "Fourth begins with ANOTHER firefight in the middle of the ring! Not sure how much longer this can go on, but these ladies apparently going to find out. Hunter DETERMINED to hold ground right now and not allow Perdita to get her going backward like she did in the third..."

Tess: "And, she's accomplishing that at the moment..."

O'Dell: "Is, indeed, but Weeks isn't backing up, either. Instead, it's more hot-tossing as both blondes are determined to impose will and neither is willing to be imposed UPON. GOOD right, Perdita, but Hunter fires back with a NASTY combination that backs the older woman up a step..."

McCarthy: "You know, if Sceej didn't have the BEST and HOTTEST bantam on the PLANET, we might sign this weeks girl..."

O'Dell: "Final fifteen seconds of the fourth round, and it's been a close one. ANOTHER solid combination from Weeks answered right back by King. Hunter landed a BIG right hand in there, but Weeks shipped the shell and stayed afloat and there's the bell. Close. King."

Cassie: "And, we're even at 38."

ROUND FIVE:

O'Dell: "Nobody taking a step back as we start the fifth. I can not BELIEVE this fight is getting to the cards, because there's no way we can see six more rounds of exchanges like these without SOMEBODY paying the price. Right now, though, both blondes proving plenty sturdy..."

Cassie: "No doubt about it, Jenny. Both can punch and both can TAKE a punch..."

O'Dell: "GOOD right hand from Weeks backs up King, but Hunter steps right back forward and lands a solid combination of her own. Weeks covering up as King digs some body and then DROPS PERDITA WITH A RIGHT UPPERCUT! DOWN GOES WEEKS!"

McCarthy: "You called it, Jenny!"

O'Dell: "Hunter to a neutral corner. Weeks down on her back. Count at three. Four. Five. Perdita sits up at six. Seven. To her feet at eight. She'll take the mandatory and ON COMES HUNTER! King letting the hands go in a BIG way now, backing Perdita into the ropes. Brit hanging on in a high guard as the referee watches closely. Hunter just throwing BOMBS now, battering the older woman along the ropes and IT'S OVER! Referee leaping in between the blondes and it's OVER! And your winner by TKO5 is 'The Ventura County Volcano', Hunter King!"

AFTER:

O'Dell: "Let's go up to the ring and Tess Valmore!"

Tess: 'I have our winner, Hunter King, and, Hunter, that was a WAR in there..."

Hunter (nodding): "She hits like a truck. And, she's not afraid to take one to give one. Well. Neither am I. I knew sooner or later I'd get her. And, I did."

Tess: "Lots of competition in your division at Front Street..."

Hunter (nodding): "No doubt. But, all I can do is keep winning. And, that's exactly what I PLAN to do."
