Before: "Yeah, you could say I'm replacing Dani in a lot of ways," says Tiff in response to the question. "I think more and more people are thinking of me as the pre-eminent pressure fighter in the division - Dani not so much. Don't get me wrong, a lot of girls have gone gunslinging for Dani and been turned back, but I think I'm reeling her in. It's time to start the beatings that are going to lever Fishel out of that top contender spot, drive her into gatekeeper status, then push her to the sidelines for good."

Fishel testy upon hearing Tiff's grand plans - "So she's gunning for me," says Dani, "what else is new? Tiffany's a really improved fighter, but let's not forget what a low base she's coming off. I don't think she's earned the right to talk about me like that."

During R1,2: Girls slapping gloves before each round, then shouldering up to get after it in the trenches. Right hands at cheeks, lefts across bodies, girls edging into each other and cuffing, clouting, swatting hooks and choppy right hands. Tummies are touched, ribs dug out and dug out again, chins picked up - girls in constant contact, rubbing up and trying to walk each other back in between relentless bursts. Tuff Tiff doing the work, out punching Dani, gets the better of 2 very close, crowd pleasing rounds.

R3: Dani breaks the stalemate late as girls both miss right hands, Dani wins the race to the comeback hook and sends a shiver down Tiff's legs. Thiessen put wobbly butt, minces hurt to the ropes, gloves at her temples as she braces for the onslaught. Dani RIPPING at the gut, feet wide, right hands walloping in, left hand palming Tiff's shoulder to stablilize her for hurt. Tiffany's lower lip trembling at the bell, she's all cramped and hunched up en route to her corner - big smile Dani as she gets to TAT.

R4: Tiff's still looking achy, not as anxious to shoulder-up - she's giving ground, Dani's walking her down. Fishel loosening up, bouncing a little - she'll swing a wide hook as Tiff tries to circle counterclockwise, banging the brunette back into position. Dani riding her guard up on Tiff's shoulders, pressing brunette to the ropes, then huddling in head to head to work her over with tight right hands in close. Fishel jerking the righty-uppercut into the fullsome ledge of Tiffany's bra, then jamming it to mouth, using a crafty left to pull down on Tiff's head and keep her close.

R5: Shutout Dani Fishel. Dani up tempoing, but disciplined, punches are short, crisp and hurtful - she's coming forward but moving her head, dipping side to side to swing away at Tiffany's beleagured gut. Thiessen pinched and shopworn at the ropes, crossing her arms against her body while sitting in the strands, bending at the waist - she's soaking up shock against her flanks as Dani gets off for free. Fishel happy in her work - keeping her head close, palming the shoulders, digging compact punches into the thick of Tiffany's midsection as well as that gorgeous rack.

R6: Tiff catching a second wind - standing her ground now - head to head she's battling Dani, and backing her up in spots. Grim, determined stuff on the inside, girls keeping hands at waist level, heads close together, taking turns jerking and digging punches into one another. Bruising back and forth hard to score, but Thiessen's coming forward, seemingly getting the better of banging trade.

R7: Another close round, but tell tale signs of Tiffany imposing her will are evident. Thiessen more accurate, countering beautifully off the block, just picking Dani's chin up little uppercuts, swatting her body in under the elbows. Tiff able to reach under Dani's arms and walk her around - Fishel not fighting through this, giving in a little. Dani's back touches the ropes at times, but it acts like a refreshing tonic, always spurring Fishel to let her hands go and force Thiessen to back off.

R8: Shutout tuff Tiff Thiessen. Thiessen now beating Dani to punches, shutting her down with combinations as Fishel hugs herself, leans forward to soak up the pounding. Tiff hooking Dani's ear and chin, little jarring strokes, landing 2 and 3 at a time, Fishel's head snapping in response - nothing back from the kid. Tiff stepping back, letting Dani fall into thumping right hands to the pit of the stomach - Fishel folded forward vulnerable to follow-up hooks in her side, across her back. At the bell, Dani grimacing, favouring her right side ribs - she gets a little pep talk in the corner from a concerned Syren.

R9: Dani goes right at Tiff - Thiessen stands her ground and the crowd goes wild as the best two way action of the fight erupts. Senseless, tit for tat banging - girls in close, reefing up into each other's bodies, clanging away to the chins, often following through with forearms and shoulders they're in so tight together. It's Dani coming forward, then Tiff, each struggling to bully the other, each successful in spots. After 2 minutes of sustained action DANI STOPS PUNCHING! Fishel suddenly wilting - Tiffany's eyes get hungry as she redoubles her efforts to Fishel's midsection. Hup-hup-hup body blows as Tiff steps back in good order, letting Fishel groan forward and DANI GOES DOWN! Fishel sobbing for breath on all fours - Tiffany blowing a lock of hair off her eyes, then nodding savagely - huge 10-8 round in a close fight late.

R10: Dani determined to get it back but TIFF TACKLES HER INTO HER CORNER! Tiffany feeling it, pouring on, refusing to let Dani have her last hurrah. Thiessen crowding in, riding up with HER guard on Dani's shoulders, then thump-thump-thumping away left and right uppercuts to the sportsbra. Tiff getting low, shouldering Dani back, then stuffing in choice leather to breadbasket, folding Dani up with a hurting gurgle. More stacking, more punching - Fishel not punching back, just getting jostled and worked on. Tiff goes bell to bell and screams in Dani's face at the end - shellshocked Fishel bleary eyed, confused, hurting in her corner. Comes back UD10 Tiffany Thiessen.

After: Dani wiping at tears with the announcement - Tiffany waltzed into Fishel's kitchen and beat her up body to body, that has GOT to hurt! Tiff all smiles, jumping up and down as she hugs her corner people - huge win for the brunette. Dani ahead after 5, seemingly in charge, but Tiff got it together, started stacking up minutes and rounds and by the end, she was bullying her girl toe to toe. "It's over for Dani," says a bright-eyed Tiffany, "I'm not stopping until she cries uncle. Next time will be worse, that's all I can promise her."
