Meghan Markle (4-6, 3 KO) vs Elizabeth Banks (0-2-0)
FCBA Free Agent vs FCBA Free Agent
Results: Lookout! Boxing / Story: Vassago


BEFORE: A couple of free agents square off in a stay busy match-up however Meghan Markle has more reasons to smile about coming off a fine win over Poppy Montgomery whereas Elizabeth Banks suffered a customary Asylum defeat to Chloe Bennet last time out. Still, the 41 year old blonde believes she can upstage the 'Suits' brunette who remains one of the most underrated gatekeepers in the division which is perhaps no surprise given how little respect the indie girls are getting in this league. Aged 34 Markle is almost on Tractorpull Magazine's cut off point regarding her FCBA usefullness.

Meghan Markle wears a red bikini set and black gloves. Dark brown hair tied in a sleek ponytail. Elizabeth Banks wears a navy blue bikini set and white gloves. Shoulder lenght blonde hair tied in a small bun at the back of her head. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the bantamweight division.

Round 1:
Both women brawl in close range trying to establish superiority as early as possible but the lack of a big punch from either side prevents a quick sloution and Banks is happy to clinch the brunette in order to waste some time. Meghan shows more flexibility in her movements and beats the blonde for overhand spikes down the stretch which is enough to shut Elizabeth off in mid range for remainder of the round where she struggles to make her presence felt. Meghan homes in with a couple of heavy hooks in the final minute but fails to dissect the high guard and almost gets caught by a late hooking response as Banks tried her best to finish the round strong but just couldn't match Markle's speed across the canvas to make it happen.

Round 2:
More of the same in the second, an early shoving struggle leaves both women clinched before Meghan bumps the blonde off and beats her through sheer speed of execution into a jabbing series over the top. Elizabeth's guard begins to crumble bit by bit however Markle just doesn't have that big punch to put the older actress away on the spot. Still, she hassles Banks across the canvas and traps her in the corner late where she rallies on the breadbasket to secure another round; no real fireworks yet but extremely effective display from the 'Suits' actress.

Round 3:
Banks realizes shen needs to be more aggressive in the ring and thumps a quick series between the mitts which catches Markle unawares and dumps her on the heels thereafter. A quick follow up bursts into the brunette's chin and backs her butt-in-ropes allowing the blonde to romp clear into the gut and make Maghan gurgle in discomfort getting hammered to the body deep into the second minute. Elizabeth's drive overwhelms anything Markle did in the previous two and a fine double uppercut combo really sags the brunette on her heels to the point she has to wrap herself around the blonde's shoulders to survive the unexpected drill that shuts her off wholesale and leaves the blonde ravaging the liver area at the bell and shaking her glove in delight afterwards. Meghan looks shocked over the brutal does of reality she was handed in this round but keeps staring at Elizabeth with no sympathy whatsoever during the interval.

Round 4:
Elizabeth storms into another feisty charge looking to beat Meghan for the opening punch again but the brunette's wary of the threat and dekes to the side before cracking her heaviest strike of the lot yet that smacks Banks on the brow ridge and leaves her vulnerable to the follow up on the chin moments later... AND MARKLE SINKS BANKS ON HER HEELS with a brutal right uppercut that sends the blonde all wobbly butt and bursting into a spasms... Elizabeth tries to catch both her balance and breath back but Markle's too quick for her and adds a flurry of jabs on the face that dismantles the guard and pound a hapless blonde back to the ropes... more aches from the older actress but when she lifts her head to somehow mount a comeback she gets smoked by a left hook on the ear AND COLLAPSES INTO A PILE OF HEAP at the brunette's feet... she tries to beat the count but only makes it onto all four at seven and bursts into more spasms when she realizes she's all done and dusted here tonight! KO4 Meghan Markle!!!

AFTER: Meghan's not exactly the hardest puncher in the division by any means and the swift nature of her otherwise impressive KO victory must be blamed on Elizabeth Banks' below par striking resistance. The blonde veteran almost upset the brunette in the third and if only she got another chance to bury Markle under some pressure she could have handed her a really bad result on the resume. Alas that never happened and Meghan stunned her with a flurry of leather that was simply too much for a 41 year old free agent to handle.

Question remains whether Meghan can actually beat some younger opposition. Her last three wins were all over women born in the 70s while in the meantime even Nicole Scherzinger and Summer Glau knocked her out in style. Meghan doesn't plan to change her approach though and vows to beat the stuffing out of Jessica Alba next!

Final result: Meghan Markle def. Elizabeth Banks KO4
