Julianne Hough versus Reese Witherspoon
(Words: Empire / Results: Lookout!)

Before: "2016 is going to be my year. As the undisputed top fly at Empire I intend to make my presence known. Reese should have petitioned for Aggy, she'll be fortunate to get to the sixth tonight" states a confident Hough, “Alba's conditioning gave out last time she got into the ring with me and Reese is going to be no different!” Reese irate when informed of Hough's brash predictions. "Juli got lucky in her last bout, if Alba were a few years younger she'd be suckling canvas. Tonight I'll prove I'm not just another veteran for the picking."

Juli in red bikini, marching gloves and boots, hair tied in a loose ponytail. Reese in baby blue bikini, matching gloves and boots, blonde locks tied into thick pigtails.

R1: Juli all fired up, legs on display as she lunges at Reese, spearing her with precise jabs. Reese keeping her hands high as she works her way forward,  landing stray shots to the body as she tries to herd Hough to the ropes. Juli clipping Reese's chin as she attempts to smother her into the cables, sending her backwards  jelly legged as Hough takes the first.

R2: Hough brazenly marching forward, left at her hips right at her navel, peppering Reese's guard before turning her head with a left hook that splits her guard,  Spoon' back peddling as Juli lunges forward with a right hook ticketed for her chin, Reese manages to duck underneath before blasting Juli right above her right hip. Hough ashen faced, retreating to the ropes as Reese surges forward.  Buxom blonde hurling into her foe, chest sloshing side to side as she piles on the hurt, Juli clinching in desperation, holding on until the bell as Reese roasts her body.

R3: Hough slowly off her stool, proving an easier target for Reese's artillery as she hurtles into her, pinning her to the turnbuckles with her right elbow and unloading lefts to the belly before the ref separates them. Reese working behind her jab, closing the distance and landing short flurries high before Hough retreats. Juli finds her legs at the midway mark tagging Reese with a counter cross sending Blonde head swiveling and pigtails flying.  Juli leaning into Witherspoon, landing hooks to Reese's plush body winning gasps of pain. Hough shovels a right to Reese's upper back as Witherspoon desperately clinches her around the waist. Juli snarling as the ref breaks them apart, toying with Reese, feigning shots high before further battering her to the body. Spoon' flat footed, ends the round draped over the ropes as Hough shakes her head in approval.

R4: Reese off her stool shabily, still hurting from Hough's body work. Juli taking her apart midring, feinting the jab before pivoting to the side, supple hip movement demoralizing Witherspoon, Reese's belly rising in and out in exhaustion as her don't hurt me jabs and lackluster hooks fail to deter Hough. Witherspoon on the verge of tears, slings a right that deflects off Juli's left, Hough responding with a vicious counter cross that implodes into Reese's cheek, swiveling her head and sending her sagging into the ropes. Juli relentless, teeth bared as she seeks to make a statement, tearing into Reese with both hands as the buxom blonde sinks into the ropes. Witherspoon moaning, tearing on Hough's shoulder, mouthpiece dribbling down Juli's back as she's gutted by another hook to the belly, listing forward as Hough twists to the right allowing Reese to pool to the canvas. Ref quickly rushes in to administer the count, Witherspoon manages to get to all fours, forehead pressed into the canvas, attempting to rise at eight but collapsing in exhaustion,  crying into the canvas as the count passes her by! KO 4 Julianne Hough!

After: Hough bouncing around the ring, working the crowd, bubbly in post fight interviews "I wanted to prove that I'm the girl that wrecked Alba, not the one Sienna claims to have humbled" 2016 will be a busy year for me, I intend to settle a few scores and retake my place in the upper echelons of the division" Witherspoon found teary eyed in her dressing room being tended to by training staff. "After tonight ... I'll fight the occasional bout, but it's time for me to work with the new girls" Reese all but retired after a war of attrition brings the score to 1-1.
