CHAMPION: SARAH LANCASTER (INDEPENDENT)

1. Amanda Righetti…is now 27 for her last 34 after beating Berkley

2. Bridget Regan…impressive run ended by Lancaster. Would be number one except for our rule that the most recent champion can not be number one.

3. Cassidy Freeman…loss in attempt to regain the title from Big Red is Freeman's only defeat since the end of her title reign.

4. Katrina Law…is five of six after absolute destruction of former champ Loken.

5. Leelee Sobieski…has won 20 of 22 with losses only to Nolin and Loken.

6. Kate Upton…has won nine of ten and five in a row after winning the JMMD Tournament.

7. Mandy Moore…is three for five with losses to Law and Regan and wins over Nolin, Decker, and Freeman.

8. Bianca Kajlich…former champ Nolin became her fifth straight victim. And among those five is Bridgy Regs. Only loss was to Sobieski.

9. Rebecca Romijn…lost to Theron last time out. You don't far fall for that, obviously.

10. Christina Hendricks…curvy redhead has won eight of her last nine.

11. Gena Lee Nolin…is six for twelve after losses to Kajlich and Ryan and a win over Theron.

12. Moon Bloodgood…lost to Upton her last time out.

13. Nadia Bjorlin…looked like being a title threat with win over Ruah last time out.

14. Milena Govich…has lost two straight, but the two were Upton and Kajlich.

15. Taylor Cole…righted the ship against Canalis.

16. Paula Patton…has now won four (Berkley, Hendricks, O'Keefe, Gale) of five, with the only loss being to Lancaster in the Revival semi-final, a loss that doesn't look bad at all these days.

17. Charlize Theron…went 1-2 between rankings, but the win as Romijn and the losses Nolin and Strahovski.

18. Gemma Atkinson…has won four of six after falling to eventual champ Upton in the JMDD Tournament. Other loss was to Lancaster in the Revival final.

19. Natasha Henstridge…is five for her last eight against tough competition. Has a win over Righetti, so she's still plenty dangerous.

20. Robyn Lawley…big Aussie upping the ante and still winning with blast outs of Wilson and Warren between rankings.

21. Katherine Heigl…gave Freeman all she wanted last time out, managing a draw off a very good losing effort against Righetti. Heigl has championship talent. A push might see her in the title picture.

22. Kristanna Loken…has dropped two in a row.

23. Stacy Kiebler... Kiebs is nine for her last 16 after being upset by Refa'eli on the beach.

24. Kim Cattrall…big Kim shocked the world by going MacPherson, Hargitay, Bell to win the Seniors Tournament. No idea if she'll keep competing, but, clearly, she can.

25. Cameron Diaz…is eight for twelve, but has lost three in a row.

26. Ali Landry…has won two of four and the losses were Law and Upton.

27. Estella Warren…fell to Lawley last time out.

28. Elizabeth Berkley...seven wins in her last fourteen tries against top comp. Fell to Righetti in the interregnum.

29. Megan Gale…was among the favorites to win the Welter Revival, but lost two of three, beating only McPhee, while falling to Patton and Atkinson. Is still five of eight, though.

30. Rihanna…beat Kesha last time out. Last two losses were Moore and Bloodgood. Those don't look too bad right about now. If she gets work, she can be a factor.

31. Karen Gillian…redhead surprised many with two wins in the revival, including her victims, Michelle Ryan and McPhee. Broke her maiden and looks like someone to watch.

32. Torrie Wilson…has lost two of three since her return to the ring, the latest against Lawley.

33. Michelle Ryan…is only two of six after claiming just one win (McPhee) in the Revival, while falling to Atkinson and Gillian.

34. Abbie Cornish…if she gets work, she's a factor in this division.

35. Catherine Bell…struggled between rankings with losses to Marsh and Hendricks and a win over Jacobs. Is now only seven of fifteen.

36. Kelly Brook…former champ looking plenty curvy and powerful of late. Couldn't handle Ryan last time out, but can definitely compete here.

37. Jodi Lyn O'Keefe…has lost three of four after dropping two in the Revival and beating only McPhee in the last-place fight (the other loss was Righetti). Still, showed plenty of beef and power, which makes her viable here.

38. Cobie Smulders…looks to be concentrating at light, but has worked here. Showed she was for real with win over Cuoco. Fell to Biel last time out.

39. Beyonce Knowles…win over Mitra shows the physicality that could make her dangerous here.

40. Stephanie McMahon…won three of four between rankings, but the wins over McLean and Paige did not have a thing to do with her jumping 30 spots despite the Upton loss. No, it was the Cuoco win that did that.

41. Lucy Lawless…return to the FCBA was a loss to Torv. Proved she could still hit. Can likely still compete at welter.

42. Minnie Driver…return effort against Cat Bell after 8 years out of the FCBA turned out to be no fluke. Beat Bell in the rematch.

43. Laura Prepon…loss to Sobieski was her fourth in a row. Would seem to have the tools to compete here, though.

44. Cindy Crawford...has won four of ten, but those eight include quality wins over Cat Bell and Nolin. Beat Walsh and lost to Bell in Seniors Tournament.

45. Mariska Hargitay...has won three of five. Beat Tripplehorn before falling to Cattrall in the Seniors Tournament.

46. Mary McCormack...hard-hitter has a 1-1 record in two fights, the win a KO of Brooke Shields. Probably a bit long in tooth to make a run at the title, but the younger welters aren't lining up to take her punch.

47. Angie Everhart...has lost eight in a row, but the losses were to Landry, Kiebler (twice), Bloodgood, Decker, Kesha, Sobieski, and Wilson. No cupcakes there.

48. Lauren Graham…showed she could still fight with a good effort against Sobieski. Couldn't handle Theron in the follow up. Lot of that going around.

49. Charlotte McKinney…have to like what we've seen of the gorgeous McKinney so far. Give her some work, and she'll be a lot higher than this.

50. Monica Bellucci...still dangerous, especially on home soil, but has only a win and a draw in her last seven.

51. Brooke Shields..Big Brooke broke a five fight losing streak by breaking Prejean's face. Fell to Bell in the first round of the Seniors Tournament.

52. Brooke Hogan…has the size and athleticism to compete here. Clearly one of the young guns who could break into the top echelon.

53. Sophie Marceau...has won four of her last five, including wins over Bell, Casta, Berkley and Zeta-Jones. Hasn't fought since '04.

54. Daisy Fuentes…is three for her last six, but last strapped on the gloves in '07…THAT one, however, was a one-point loss to someone named Theron…

55. Whitney Cummings…wait…what? Didn't she fight twice at bantam? Yes. But she's 5'11", and this former athlete is no longer Grace Park thin. She's at a more natural 135, and with her athleticism and length, she's dangerous here.

56. Rachel Hunter...big Kiwi beauty can still fight, but has only done it twice since '05.

57. Katharine McPhee…has had a rough time of it up here. Righetti, Gale, Ryan, O'Keefe. Four straight losses. Would seem to be big and physical enough to hang with this crowd, but, we shall see.

58. Michelle Marsh…British beauty made her FCBA debut with a win over Cat Bell. Let's see more of her, please.

59. Dina Meyer...has won two of four, but had only two fights since '06.

60. Mariah Carey...three losses in last three fights. Last win? In '06.

61. Tyra Banks...yes, yes, she can punch, but she's lost seven straight with the loss to Kajlich and her last win was in '06, like Mariah.

62. Kate Walsh…lost to Crawford in the Seniors Tournament. First action since she was carried out on a gurney after a fight against Nolin.

63. Uma Thurman...has had only two fights since '05. Lost both. But they WERE against Cat Bell and Nolin.

64. Jenna Elfman…is only 2-7 career, but her last win was an impressive one over Ms. De La Garza in '09.

65. Elle MacPherson...veteran is two for her last six, but has shown she can still fight.

66. Jessi J…she's big enough to fight here and athletic enough to fight period. Couldn't handle Lawley, but most girls don't have Robin's size or power.

67. Jeanne Tripplehorn…fell to Hargitay in the first round of the Seniors Tournament.

68. Nicole Kidman...3 for her last five. Her last fight was in '05, though.

69. Nicola McLean…big, busty Brit couldn’t handle Cat Bell or Stephanie McMahon. We bet there are girls she CAN handle, though.

70. Tia Carrere...last win was in '04. She has two losses and a draw since.

71. Ashley Newbrough…is 0-4 since return to FCBA.

72. Victoria Silvstedt...has lost eight of nine and hasn't fought since '06. Still smokin' hot, though.

73. Nikki Visser...has lost three straight and hasn't won since '06.

74. Liv Tyler...has lost seven straight. Competed at times against Sobieski and Ruah. Could be she just needs some rounds.

75. Jaye Jacobs…lost to Bell in her FCBA debut.

76. Peta Wilson...last win? '04. Last fight? '05.

77. Sandra Bullock…6-9 career and hasn't fought since '04.

78. Aisha Tyler…big brunette debuted with loss to Theron, then fell to Atkinson. She's big and can hit. Not going to be a lot of folks lining up, we don’t suppose.

79. Kate Winslet…Queen Kate is looking at the welter division. Has the size and power. Let's see if she wants to work at it.

80. Naomi Campbell...no wins and two fights since '03. OK. Two fights in a boxing ring.

81. Monica Brant…3-4-1 career…but hasn't been in the ring in almost a decade.

82. Anna Falchi…last fight in '02. Has a 2-4-1 career mark.

83. Jorja Fox…last graced an FCBA ring in 2003. Is 3-7 career.

84. Shanna Moakler…absolutely destroyed by Nolin in her FCBA debut and hasn’t fared any better since.

85. Carrie Prejean…is 1-13 and has lost twelve in a row.
