Before: Interesting case-study in management contrast. Glau being put in tough, but always encouraged, supported, allowed to develop at her own pace by patient backers. Bush under intense pressure to produce 'victory now' by corporate overlords and battle-hardened stablemates alike. "There IS pressure," Sophia admits in prefight, "but it's good pressure - pressure that will make me aspire higher and be better. I do look at Summer as a girl I must beat: this isn't Jaime Pressly or Evangeline Lilly here - this is a girl who I should be processing en route to getting what I want. I'll hurt her quickly, and finish what I start. Promise." Glau relaxed, shrugging off her opponent's prickly attitude. "I've been more disciplined and effective than Sophia, to date," Glau says dispassionately. "She's a free-swinger: I'm a sharpshooter. I have to believe that I'll pick her apart as the fight goes along. She'll be dangerous early - while she's still fresh. Once I've bruised her and tired her - she'll be more manageable." Summer in green bra style bikini top, pale blue bottoms; black gloves. Sophia in bright teal bra top; brown bikini bottoms; black gloves.

During R1: Sophia lunging, swinging for skull early: Summer legging out of range, letting Bush hurtle forward in a series of first-minute rushes. Second minute, Glau misjudges distance - thinks she's safe; gets caught. Sophia leaving her feet to tag Sum a looping right hand - following up with lusty lefts and rights to face as Glau's staggering backward. Ropes: Sum in trouble, loose-kneed: Bush pouring in all teeth bared - overhand rights/sweeping, broad lefts. Glau belted - covering up well - she slides along ropes, bending forward and back at waist, trying to negotiate pressure. Bush stepping-with, hurling: she'll punch shoulder, flank, hip - anything she can touch as Glau slinks around perimeter.

R2: Sum rallies - showing cool poise as she face-fabs Sophia into compliance. Bush coiled midring, staying low, trying to erupt up and out with hopeful punching: Sum pivoting round her poke - spearing Sophia, pre-empting her. Bush off the mark - haymakers whistling just short of Glau's chin as supple Summer leans back out range, keeping Sophia out on the end of jab.

R3: Continued pressure from Bush: she's wild, but actually keeping her balance well - normally bringing her feet with her as she lunges forward, positioning herself for follow-on strikes. Sophia doing a better job penetrating - passing Glau's jab to fight off Summer's chest. Summer adjusting accordingly: tightening up stroke; nipping close-in left uppercuts and choppy right hands. Bush looking better at closer ranges: scoring thick whack across Summer's flat waist; clouting Glau's ears to buffett her off-stance.

R4: Sophia pouring forward again: shorter girl with good momentum and confidence - doing the kind of punching that once shocked Hayden Panettiere. Summer looking startled - extending her left hand while she backs away: she's being rushed, getting disorganized. Bush missing early, but inching closer: minute mark sees her loop a crashing right upside Summer's head, catching Glau as she's backing up. THERE GO SUMMER'S LEGS! Glau rattled - knock-kneeing herself into a ragged defensive position: Bush pouncing in with a thick right roundhouse to waist, followed by a straight-arm left hook up top. Sum buffetted to her left, eyes blinking in confusion: Sophia turns-with in her crouch, then leaps into retreating Glau with a shoving right up and straight to chin. Glau's head violently back - face ceilingward for a moment - she reels backward, trips up, crashes to her back in disarray. Bush charging in, corralled by ref: Summer all a-tingle, trying to rally - she gets herself to all fours shaky - can't find her feet before 10. KO4 in effervescent fashion, Sophia Bush.

After: Victory at last: Sophia slugs her way past a promising brunette, finally laying a body at her pack-mates' feet. Glau woozily led to her corner: Bush looking at Eliza Dushku in the HISC corner, waiting. Eliza purses lips, then points Summer's way: "Go. Yes." Bush brightens, rushes over to intercept Summer before she can take her seat. Glau stunned, confused as she's pushed into her turnbuckles - long brown curls in her mouth as she blinks in stupor. Corner-mount: Bush climbing the ropes, pressing her thighs and pelvis against Summer to pin her down - thrusting a greedy left fist into the damp mass of Summer's curly locks - right hand pointing "number 1" to the lights. Grand moment for Bush as wildness trumps discipline on the night.
