Before: Bad penny Rimes back to stir up old hurts, calling out former stablemate Mish Williams after purportedly undergoing extensive training under CMT supervision. "I'll believe it when I see it," Mish spits in pre-fight, "she was always the weak sister at TE and I don't see what's changed. She's bulked up some, she looks fit, but once I rip into her she's going to be the same old girl she always was." Very tense press conferences between these two - Rimes bitter and provocative throughout - Mish dismissive and often challenging Leane to 'go' right at the podium. Leanne in tan suede bikini, western fringe - Mish in black french maid's bikini, white lace trim around the cleavage.

During R1: Girls bumps foreheads dangerously - heads and all four gloves clumped together as each leans in and looks to jerk in punches at point blank range. Williams the boss - touching Leanne's chin with a little right uppercut, boom, boom, then BOOM down behind the elbow with a vicious left hook. Rimes gives ground to her corner, but always squared up head on head and taking tough to the body and jaw. Shutout Mish Williams - she just climbs into Rimes' trunks and works her over this round.

R2: Shutout Rimes, this time walking Mish back into HER corner and working wide to the body with both mitts. Williams sturdy under pressure, getting beaten red around the ribs as Leanne sets her feet and gets off in beefy 3 punch bursts. Mish grinning, nodding at the bell as Rimes huffs off - Williams looks like she's enjoying the rugged outing thus far.

R3: Shutout Mish Williams. Again heads rub and bump in close quarters, Williams riding her hands on Leanne's shoulders, bodying the singer back, going short to the chin with little contact uppercuts then REEFING hard down below to buckle Rimes legs. Leanne propped in her corner for all 3 minutes, keeping her face on Mish, but not moving her hands - these girls are just taking turns working each other over.

R4: Finally two-way action mid ring - heads continue to clang, girls leaning in and trading briskly from the opening bell, occasionally shuffling their feet, but basically standing right in front of one another. Rimes will rip 1,2,3 to the waist and head out wide, Mish will answer back up the middle with little uppercuts, then down into the belly with sudden digging lefts. Brutal high contact affair, both women keeping their mitts high, but getting routinely clocked anyway - Mish slowly emerges the stronger and has Rimes suffering on the ropes at the bell. Contemptuous shove from Williams prompts immediate retaliation - ref jumps in to restore order as cuddly blondes work overtime.

R5: Mish is loving the face on face brawl, loving the fact that Rimes is working, fighting hard - Leanne's not sharing the enthusiasm. Rimes baring her teeth, fighting desperately as she pulls punches into Michelle - Williams seems in control, backing her girl up, just touching the chin, then doubling up downstairs with the heavy payloads. Rimes finishing up these rounds with her back to the ropes - judges have to like Williams' effective aggression.

R6: Shutout Leanne Rimes, obviously takes Williams by surprise with the extra gear. Leanne cramming Mish into her home corner and going to town - pushing up hard, then bracing her legs to thrash Michelle with cudgelling lefts and rights to the ribs and jaw. Everything wide and hard from Rimes - it's predictable stuff, but Williams seems rocked, unable to fight her way off the turnbuckle. Bell to bell beat down Rimes' best ever round against Williams, and a flurry of left hooks at the bell leaves Mish swooning, helpless as Leanne keeps up the abuse late.

R7: Clanging heads, gloves and shoulders all packed in tight - neither girl looking to clinch - it's all short, meanspirited punching - every blow meant to cripple the enemy. If there's improvement in Rimes, it's showing up in her legs - she's got much better endurance heading into the second half, and she's standing up to Williams' heavier punching better than she has in the past. Still, Mish is landing brutal punches, tapping chin with the left uppercut, then GOUGING the side with the left hook, starting to move Rime in a wincing sidestep to her left. Rimes hammering back, but Williams is starting to time the wide blows, punching with Leanne and getting the cleaner touches in trade.

R8: Shutout Michelle and the first sign of breakdown in Rimes. Williams smearing her opponent against the ropes, mounts a torrid assault, working off her uppercut to set up digging body shots, but also bashing it up wide, plowing arms, hammering the breasts, keeping her face on Leanne at all times as the singer starts to wilt. Jammed in her own corner down the stretch, Rimes begins to falter as the uppercut/hook combinations start to buckle her - she cries out finally as a Williams left spanks hard off the solar plexus, nearly showing Rimes to her hands and knees. Bell sounds to save Leanne, but the tears are flowing - "THAT'S my girl!" Michelle taunts.

R9: No holding Michelle back now - she's broken Leanne's will, now she's chasing the singer from one defensive stand to another. Rimes covering up behind her gloves - Williams stubbornly storming the tightly packed guard, working away around the side, coming up the middle with heavier, KO type uppercuts. Coming off the head to scorch the body, Williams is hurting Rimes downstairs now - Leanne cringing and stumbling away whenever Mish can get close and really rip one in. Shutout Michelle Williams - Rimes demanding ice on her ribcage during the break.

R10: Michelle hounds her foe to the ropes once again and piles on with the trademark whirlwind assault - Mickey Ward would be proud of the resemblance. Mish keeping her weight on, gloves at her face as she pushes in on Leanne, then mining gold in her foe's midsection with left hooks off left uppercuts. Many times Rimes is buckled, but rallies, also holding her gloves high and countering back with short right uppercuts into her foe's bra and chin. Girls slug it out shoulder to shoulder to the bell - a jubilant Mish Williams shoves her girl hard into the corner - Rimes angered, shoves back, and a new brawl is barely averted as cooler heads prevail. Comes back UD10 Mish Williams, Rimes obviously bitterly disappointed at the decision.

After: A more combative Rimes to be sure, has closed some ground, but fighting Michelle's fight made Williams look dominant all night long. Good scrap - Williams tougher and more willing to stand in when the going got hot - you could feel Leanne's resolve start to crack in the 8th when Mish really started to her hurt her to the body. Rimes committed to bringing Williams down, goes away the loser, but doesn't look beaten as she howls about a rematch off camera.
