Before: With a new movie coming out, Tom is finally eligible for Studio titles, and Lopez lays them on the line to prove, as she says "there's no shame in my game!" The last time these two dusky beauties tussled, Kiana stopped Lopez in seven, while sustaining a tremendous bombardment to her state-of-the-art abs and rib cage. Neither plans to change what she does best for this one, so both know what they have to do. Kiana in little red cotton Lycra shorts, black jogbra, Lopez in blue aerobics two piece.

During R1: Lopez immediately cuts off the ring and goes to Kiana's tawny midsection with both hands. Tom striding back out of range, measures Lopez with the stick, then pounds a hard right hand into the Latina’s cheek as she comes in. Lopez wobbly butt (!) and covering up as Kiana takes charge, firing one twos from long range to take the first.

R2: Lopez shakes off the Kiana-damage and roars back at the Hawaiian, forcing Tom to the ropes. Lopez fighting off Kiana's chest, makes the brunette fight inside. Jen pushing Kiana's arms back, leaning on Tom, slugging one-twos into the gut - it's a mugging as the Polynesian is smothered. Tom with the occasional uppercut inside, is controlled by Jennifer this round.

R3: OH KIANA! Tom strides around Lopez, sticking the jab from her hip into the Latina’s cheek and BAM! drops the right hand in behind it to sit Lopez down! Jennifer ROCKED, gets to her feet all tremble-bodied, and Kiana lopes in, welting that Hearns left hook to the midsection while seeking more right hand openings. Midway through the round, with Lopez bobbing, still hurting, Kiana bounces a hard right cross off the champ's forehead and nearly puts Lopez down again. Tom staying composed, legs after the reeling Latina, and continues to work her body and head with steady, but controlled aggression.

R4: The champ comes back. Lopez crosses her arms, bobs inside and sets up shop on Kiana's chest again RIPPING furious left hooks to the liver and rib cage. KIANA is hurt! Tom grimaces and covers up, drawing her elbows in and Lopez hammers away at the brawny shoulders and biceps of the Asian. Tom fades to the ropes, looking fatigued as Lopez showers her with compact hooks. Tom's eyes start to swell, and she's starting to breath through the mouth from all the heavy punishment to her body.

R5: Lopez walks Kiana down again, and Tom definitely looks weary. Jen is shaking off those right hands now, walking through them to dig at Kiana's tight abs. Tom spends long segments of the round gloves up, square to the opponent, standing in and taking as Jennifer turns her brown shoulders into withering hooks. Lopez with a solid pressure round, is slowly grinding the lanky Kiana up.

R6: Jennifer is making it look easy. She muscles up on Kiana, shoving the Asian back by her shoulders and arms, then bashing at Kiana's chest and ribs with cruel strokes. Jen coming forward, gets a nice unintentional headbutt into Kiana's swollen cheek, and digs away at the waist line as Kiana's form starts to get ragged. Tom starts to trade, stepping back and ripping a lanky left hook or right uppercut, and midway through the round, Jennifer stops punching as she starts to get tagged. Down the stretch it's Kiana, swollen eyed and exhausted, lashing Jennifer with whipping left hooks and groundstroke-trained right hands that rock Lopez head back on
her neck. In the final seconds, Jen breaks, stumbling sideways with a blank look on her face as Kiana pursues her to the ropes. Lopez saved by the bell, is assisted to her corner as her trainer leaps to her side.

R7: Kiana tells her corner "this is it" during the break, and she comes out at the bell stone-faced, hands at her side, walking confidently towards Lopez. Jennifer still looks wobbly, gloves at her chin as she moves forward. Kiana steps into a right hand from her thigh, drilling past Lopez' weak guard into the Latina’s face, and Lopez legs buckle. Tom misses with the left hook, drags the left back across Lopez face, then crashes another straight right home and LOPEZ GOES DOWN! Jen Lopez lies on her back, knees bent as the 10 count tolls. Kiana Tom lifts Lopez titles with a spectacular KO in 7.

After: Both women absolutely shelled one another in a particularly grueling war of attrition. Lopez nearly broke Kiana in the fourth and sixth rounds, but in the end, the rangy boxer was able to exploit Jen's pressure style to produce another 7th round stoppage of her rival. Jen's first defense of her unified titles ends in disaster, and splinters the belts once again
