SAOIRSE RONAN VS LAURA VANDERVOORT



Results: Lookout Writing: Archer



Saoirse: 25 YO, 5’6 (1.69 4-4-0. 4 KO, Emilia’s Empresses





Laura: 36 YO, 5’6 (1.69 m), 36-35-2, 26 KO, Foxfire Boxing


Before: Laura Vandervoort tells the press before the fight: “I haven’t been very busy this year, but there was no way I was going to be on the sidelines for a beach fight card. I don’t know much about Saoirse as a fighter, but she’s clearly a rookie and I can handle her.”



Saoirse says: “Oh, I know Laura Vandervoort is a major beach fighter—or at least she used to be. I will admit I am a rookie, but I am out to prove that my stable the Empresses can win against an established fighter from an established stable. I may not know as much about beach fighting as Laura does, but I do know that if punch an opponent until she can’t get up—you win. That’s my basic plan.”



“Oh, this is going to be short and unpleasant for you,” Laura informs the Irish fighter. “Brawlers like her go down easy.”



“I never said I was a brawler,” Saoirse replies calmly. “I just meant my plans are simple and not mussed up with excessive planning that will go away the first time I hit her in the face.”



“You have a lot to learn about boxing,” Laura sniffs, but then adds with a wicked smile: “and I am just the fighter to teach it to you.”



“Be careful, Laura, you are not too much a veteran not to be taught a lesson by me,” Saoirse replies coolly.



“I guess we’ll find out who runs the best school,” Laura replies dismissively.



Out to the beach comes Saoirse Ronan, she is wearing a green retro one piece modeled on the suit she wore in the film “Brooklyn”. (“The fabric is more flexible for fighting, but I have always liked the look of that suit. I am hoping it will bring me good luck.”) Laura Vandervoort is in a black vinyl-looking one-piece (“It’s one my favorites. I think I look especially good in shiny black suits”.) Saoirse wearing gold gloves and her bobbed red hair is loose, but wetted down. Laura has white gloves and her hair is pulled back in a battle braid). Ring instructions are crisp and to the point. Glove tap and the fighters are off to their corners. The bell rings. It’s on.



R1: Laura attacking Saoirse in a rapid-fire fashion—striking at head and body in a random order that has the younger fighter looking confused. Laura then circling around the redhead and popping in punches as she shows impressive movement on the sand. Saoirse caught off balance time and again and gets popped each time. Saoirse finally pulling back to regroup, but Laura moves with her to maintain the pressure. Saoirse finally gets her jab going late in the round to smack up Laura in the face and belly. Laura grows more wary, but still firing away to Saorise’s head and body. Round ends with Laura winning it by a wide margin.



R2: Laura again on the attack and using the same tactics to befuddle the rookie. However Saoirse not biting on the feints as the round progresses and she’s slapping Laura to the jaw with quick counters, then digging hooks into Laura’s midsection. Laura then moves in close, hammering away at Saoirse to the breasts, ribcage and stomach. Saoirse accepts the challenge and stands her ground as she answers with body shots of her own. Laura getting worked hard to the torso, but she ups her punch rate and Saoirse finally forced back, but the Irish fighter resists with tenacity to the bell. Result is a much closer round, but the judges still give it to Laura V.



R3: Action picks up where it left off. Saoirse and Laura move rapidly to the center of the sandy ring and go at it in toe-to-toe action. Hot sun is beating down on their sweating, straining bodies as both fighters ram home their punches with as much power as they can muster. Two are nearly touching foreheads at some points as they try to stare each other down with determined glares. Laura finally sinks a series of hooks deep into Saoirse’s belly and the redhead is again forced to give ground. Bell rings to halt the struggle. Both fighters drenched in sweat, breathing hard, but looking each other in the eye before going to their corners. It’s another close round, but Laura Vandervoort is awarded the round by the judges.



R4: Round starts out differently as Laura and Saoirse circle around each other and strike from the mid-distance. Saoirse aiming at Laura’s head and she lands some good clipping rights and lefts to the jaw. Laura goes after Saoirse to the chin, but Saoirse turns to let her shoulder take the shot. Then Saoirse comes back with a strong right to the chin and a follow-up left. Laura is staggered and Saoirse rushes in to try to get Laura down. Saoirse a bit wild with her follow-ups and Laura ducks under these. Laura then strikes back at Saoirse to the body. The round then shifts into more body banging action at point blank range. However, this time Saoirse is getting her belly hooks just right. Laura doubled up and gasping for air as she has to retreat. Laura stabilizes behind her jab to the bell, but Saoirse is able to win the favor of the judges and she takes the close round.



R5: Saoirse attacks boldly as the new round begins. She is moving faster now on the sand and she strikes at Laura to the head. Laura’s head swiveled by a powerful right to the jaw and then swiveled the other way by a follow-up left to the jaw. Laura’s legs suddenly rubber as she backs away, shaking her head to clear the ringing bells in her brain as she protects her head with her gloves. Saoirse striking to the body how, ripping into Laura’s breasts with stinging power and then digging hooks deep into blonde belly. Laura firing back some desperate jabs that do manage to mark up Saoirse’s face, but they don’t slow her down very much. Saoirse now pushing Laura back and keeping her under punching pressure so she can’t strike back with effectiveness. Laura looking frazzled as Saorise tries to get her on the ropes. Laura fights this off, but Saoirse smacks a straight right into Laura’s mouth at the bell. Laura left dazed with a split lower lip that has blood trickling down her chin. Saoirse walks firmly to her corner. She has won this round wide.



R6: Laura patched up by the Foxfire corner crew and she comes out trying to re-establish her command of the fight. Saoirse struck to the jaw with a right/left combo that causes the redhead to fall back on shaky legs. Laura comes forward to continue the beating, but Saoirse recovers more quickly than the blonde expected as she strikes back with a spearing right hook to the belly. The blow doubles Laura up with a gasp and Saoirse now rips rights and lefts into the blonde’s chin. Laura lurching back and Saoirse snaps two uppercuts into Laura’s chin. Laura is jerked off her feet and lands hard on her black vinyled bottom before swooning onto her back. LAURA VANDERVOORT IS DOWN! Saoirse scurries to the neutral corner. Referee counts as Laura pushes herself into a sitting position. She looks around with glassy eyes and makes an effort to rise, but falls back. She tries again, but once more falls back. She is still trying as the referee declares:



“EIGHT!...NINE!...TEN!..YER OUT!”



THE WINNER: SAOIRSE RONAN DEFEATS LAURA VANDERVOORT KO6!



After: Saoirse all smiles as she hugged and congratulated by teammates Kate Mara, Victoria Justice and Elsa Hosk. Then she heads across the ring.



“I just have to walk you, darlin’,” Saorise says cheerfully, “thanks to you I am now 5-4 in the FCBA.”



Laura V has been around too long to resist, but she isn’t happy about being walked. Saoirse slides an arm around Laura’s waist and they are off. Saoirse shows a real talent for properly displaying a beaten open. She waves to the fans in an enthusiastic manner, but then pauses to show off Laura for photo sessions. Laura sullenly going along with the process, but she looks relieved when Saoirse finally releases her after tey have completed the circuit.



“Nothing personal, Laura,” Saoirse assures her, “but I want to make this a memorable fight.”



“I wouldn’t worry about that,” Laura growls, “I am not going to forget it.”



“And I’ll just bet you learned a lesson or two from me,” Saoirse says with a grin. “I knew you would.”



“Don’t congratulate yourself too much rookie,” Laura says. “As far as I am concerned this is not over.”



“Fine, all any time. Try not to pout too much,” Saoirse says as she leaves the smoldering the blonde.



Laura stomps her foot onto the sand and the ring as snaps: “Get me out of here! I can’t stand that redhead!”



Quite beach fight as Saoirse came back from shaky start to defeat the veteran Laura. Plenty of action to please beach fans. Emilia’s Empresses will no doubt be celebrating the win as it helps them establish themselves in the fed. No doubt a disappoint for Laura V and her fans, but she may have suffered from lack of activity this year. Fighting a rising rookie is not a good way to get rid of that pesky ring rust. Hopefully Foxfire will keep Laura busier in the remaining months of 2019.
