Results: Lookout!; Story: Caspian & The Dollhouse

BEFORE:
Criticise Ms Lavigne all you want - at least she’s willing to step up in terms of competition. Hayden Panettiere already a member of the FCBA Hall-of-Fame at the young age of 29, and it looks like now she has to contend with girls wanting to prove something to the world by beating her, one of which is the small ball of Canadian fury known as Avril Lavigne.

"Emma thinks she's all that for beating a Hall-of-Famer who's like, what, 10 years older than her?! WOW. How impressive!” Avril begins the interview with a roll of her eyes. “Well, guess what, bitches? Tonight, i'm going to beat a Hall-of-Famer who's actually YOUNGER than me. How about THAT?!” she chuckles as though amazed at her own feat.

“I've been told that I have to watch out for Hayden's power or whatever, but I'm not worried. If anything, Hayden should be worried about MY freaking power!” the singer continues with a giggle.

“I can punch with the best of them, and these bad boys…” she flexes both her arms with a giggle “...have knocked out more girls than I can count! Right, Emma??” Avril takes a long pause, a mischievous grin on her face as she waits for the jab at her stable mate to sink in. “Besides, Hayden’s lost ALL her fights last year… that's pretty f*cking LAME! She might be a Hall-of-Famer but there's a reason I'm ranked 5 places above her, and that is because I am the QUEEN, bitches! I’m totally gonna f*ck her up, and then I’m gonna do the same next week to that overrated nobody, Lowndes!"
Torrent of words from the self-declared royalty figure, and usually, the more words one uses, the more fired up it means you are. Hayden not looking bothered herself as she responds from across the conference table, chuckling to herself in semi-disbelief.

“Wow. I was gonna give Avril the benefit of doubt here, but then she opened her big mouth…” Hayden shakes her head with a snicker. “Sure, I’ll play along. The more you talk, Avril, the more embarrassing it’s going to be for you when I’m done dismantling you tonight. You wanna talk POWER? You wanna compare biceps, “QUEEN”?”

It’s Hayden’s turn to flex her impressive guns, giving each arm a not-so-subtle smooch for emphasis. “Fancy some arm-wrestling, maybe?” which draws another eye-roll from Lavigne.

“Didn’t think so! Look, she’s had a pretty impressive 2018 - I’ll give her that. But I watched a bunch of your fights and I’m convinced that you’re a one trick pony. I can spot the fake, untalented ones, and I know how to expose them. If you think mindlessly brawling your way to another win is going to work for you tonight, Av, especially against someone like me, then you’re dead wrong. Carmen, I hope you enjoy watching me take your cocky ‘Queen’ apart. I’m definitely planning to enjoy myself tonight,” Panettiere concluding with a smirk and a wink.

Girls entering the arena to plenty of fanfare and deafening noise, with a much anticipated crowd for this match-up tonight. It’s small wonder why nobody thought of putting these two Flyweights in the same ring before. Avril in her Dollhouse colours, grinding her teeth together (and also her mitts) as she gets ready to plunge right in. Hayden looking spectacular in a dark blue bikini and white gloves. HERE we go with ten rounds of Flyweight action!

ROUND 1:
Strong words from Lavigne don’t translate into equally strong actions, as the Canadian keeps herself moving in all directions but forward in this opening round. What the hell, Av? Maybe she’s abandoned those reckless charges from before, and finally starts to fight smartly for once. Hayden on the other hand eager to punch her cocky lights out, makes for the Canadian in a beeline and immediately begins to strap big hands into the middle of her guard. Avril hesitating mid-round, jumping forward to jab-jab-jab before being blasted to the middle of her arms with another cross, which throws her a couple of paces backwards. The singer’s got every right to be afraid of Panettiere’s punch-power, with Hayden having put down far bigger and better girls in her illustrious career. Round 1 ends with Avril with little to show for it except her agility and unwillingness to engage. The Canadian singer can be heard arguing with trainer Kristanna Loken, claiming her opponent is “built like a freaking tank!”. Well, If she’s going to adopt a bigger game plan here, she has to make sure that it’s also better, much better.

ROUND 2:
Second try for Lavigne as she refines her strategy. Hayden on the other hand back to the same plan that won her the previous: if it ain’t broke, it means it can break Avril in half, seems to be her motto, and the strawberry blonde back to shooting in jabs from afar before unloading with hooks to the arms early. Avril however keeping her distance a bit better, and it’s especially easy when your opponent comes at you in a straight line with little deviation. Avril managing to score more points off Hayden’s face as a result, tagging the Hall-of-Famer repeatedly on the cheek and chin, much to her annoyance. Last minute and it’s finally starting to dawn on Hayden that Avril’s not some brat you get to put away in a couple of rounds, starts slowing down deliberately and trying to catch her with more focused jabbing. Though both girls score in the final minute, Hayden doesn’t manage to tip the scales in her favour, and Avril’s left with a wide round for herself.

ROUND 3:
Maybe all Hayden needed to do was catch her breath before she goes off again on her quest to send Avril down to the canvas. Lavigne must be somewhat amazed by her stamina even at her age, grunting as a pair of hooks bounce off her body before she gets a chance to retreat out of Hayden’s range again. But Hayden emboldened, keeps on coming forward, looking to brawl. Then, she eats a left glove straight into the mouth, with Avril just forcing one hand forward as a barrier in between them, doesn’t expect Hayden to carelessly walk into the path of that one until it was too late! Panettiere suddenly looking dazed and hurt, her attack stopped in its tracks. Avril takes a moment to catch her breath before LAUNCHING herself after, and wailing all over her body and head like there’s no tomorrow. All indications towards the Canadian scoring another big round for herself here, with Hayden repeatedly trying to bound forward and attempt a clinch only to be DENIED with a right uppercut that SNAPS her head upwards and back, and then ANOTHER catches her on her cheek! DOWN SHE f*cking GOES!! We have a knockdown in the third round!!

What a feat from Avril Lavigne who puts down a veteran former champion in such decisive fashion! She’s already celebrating as such, throwing both hands into the air and literally sprinting back to corner to celebrate. But Hayden’s not going to be put down so easily, like some puppy dog. There’s a look of rage in her eyes as she scrambles up to her feet by the count of 7 much to Avril’s dismay. And this fight is set to continue!

ROUND 4:
Getting your pride hurt is a more dangerous prospect than a mere body part getting bruised. Hayden, despite her knockdown in the third, seems to charge forward with even more reckless abandon. There’s pure hatred on her face as she slams blow after blow into the middle of Avril’s arms, buffeting her backwards from the opening minute of the fourth. Avril perhaps the most shocked of all, just a few minutes ago celebrating in her corner and now, getting wrecked by Hayden’s power with shot after repeated shot. Her mind suddenly snaps into place and she starts moving on her feet once again, creating a little distance and then trying her best to punch back at Panettiere’s face, further enraging the bull. Last minute and both girls are already tired and out of sorts, staying at opposite ends and mirroring each other’s movements backwards and forwards. Avril trying to salvage her lead with some careful jabbing at the head, but Hayden’s biting back with large hooks that threaten to take her head off whenever she gets too close. We’re not sure who exactly takes this round, but there’s a reason you don’t take on a Hall-of-Famer lightly, folks!

ROUND 5:
Avril looks to end this before we head into the second half of the fight, moving with greater speed and efficiency here. Hayden getting peppered across her arms and then her fists hitting parts of her body, as she covers up and waits for an opportune moment that never comes. Avril just staying at the periphery and shooting in punches - she’s not going to put her foe down this way, but at least she appears content to simply rack up the points. She definitely does so for the first two minutes, driving Hayden back with singular shots to the body that appear to stun her. Only in the third minute that she realises that Panettiere’s only playing possum and leading her on all this while. Avril narrowly DUCKS under as a hook flies too close to her face, and suddenly, Hayden’s ROARING back into her face with a flurry of swings. Lavigne trying to jump back with a loud yelp but takes a left-right to the tummy and ribs before she manages to get away and out of danger. It’s still her round, but the Canadian’s limping back to her corner badly, and that doesn’t spell good news for her in the long run...

ROUND 6:
Slow round overall as girls rest, test and circle, firing off long jabs that barely do any damage to each other. Hayden doing a little bit more with her flurries of quick hands, all at once stunning Avril in the face, body, then the face again, in quick succession, making the Doll wince visibly as all the pain starts to add up. For her part, Avril still moving those legs and picking her shots, but Hayden using her arms to block the worse of those incoming attacks. At the end of the day, the blonde manages to edge out a victory for herself based on points alone. What happened to that knockdown earlier? Panettiere somehow taking this pace slow and steadfast, managing to even out the contest by the sixth despite a string of losses earlier.

ROUND 7:
It looks like we’re indeed going the distance, folks. Avril playing defensive as always, with Hayden playing the antagonist in this battle of wits. After catching their breaths, the girls are moving with a little more sprite and energy, thinking that the last stretch is upon them. Hayden initiates the first exchange with more jabs launched into the guard, and then grazing the chin slightly - it’s enough for Avril to pull back her head, momentarily stunned from the blow. And that’s Hayden’s cue to pounce! Another right hand sails in hard and fast, STUNS the singer on the side of the head! UGHH. Avril backpedaling, covering up desperately… but Hayden on her case, sticking to her like glue and rocking her over and OVER again with those nasty right hands! Finally DOWN SHE GOES! Avril spinning on her heels as a brutal hook cleans out her clock - the Queen collapses face down onto the canvas, near the ropes!

KNOCKDOWN for Hayden Panettiere! What a showing from both ladies thus far! Avril almost in tears, blubbering on her chest as she finds her bearings on all fours. Hayden pumping both hands into the air, with a look of snarling determination - she has to resist the urge to kick Avril in the buttocks on her way back to corner. But if she was hoping to end things there, Avril resiliently taking one leg at a time before making it back up to her feet at the count of 8!

This round has two minutes left on the clock, folks! Avril still on shaky feet and a look of sheer panic covers her face as she’s RUSHED head-on by the hungry bulldog that is Hayden! The blonde actress goes to town with Avril’s body absorbing more shocking blows to the left and right before Panettiere goes after her head with swings that are tossing her torso about from side to side. Lavigne eating some scary abuse right there as the crowd goes wild, sensing the end here!

The referee’s slowly closing in by the side, monitoring her situation.

Hayden knows this is her moment, goes into full-on berserk mode on her overwhelmed opponent: right hands buried into the poor girl’s unprotected gut before bashing her left into the side of the Canadian’s head. Lavigne yelping, whimpering, then moaning, groaning….this display of power is just too much for the outclassed Canadian yet Hayden is RELENTLESS as she continues working the Canadian’s body! Avril not even fighting back at this point, literally out on her feet – mouth agape, arms dangling uselessly at her sides, a hollow look in her eyes as she stares blankly into nothing in particular, completely at Panettiere’s mercy here....A look of despair on Carmen Electra's face, is she gonna throw in the towel?! Is the ref gonna stop this !? Someone save the Queen!

But Hayden is not done! A few more brutal looking gut shots turn Avril’s face into a picture of agony, groaning and gasping for air as her tummy is being completely destroyed here! And that’s it! The ref has seen enough! Finally decides to JUMP in and WAVE it off, pushing Hayden away from the defenseless singer as Lavigne sinks to her knees, clutching her paunch and moaning loudly in pain! This contest is OVER!!

Official Decision: Hayden Panettiere defeats Avril Lavigne via TKO7!

AFTER:
Hayden calmly raising one hand in triumph as she parades around the ring, with a cocky smirk on her face as if this outcome was obvious from the start. Avril still sputtering by the ropes, having now fallen down to her side and hugging her body in loud moans of pain.

This is surely bad news, ladies and gentlemen, as Hayden walks over to her and without saying another word, plants her foot firmly down into her midsection for a makeshift victory pose. The protestations of the Queen grow even louder as her bruised tummy is tortured some more, leaving the singer with little choice but to groan and curl up as she lies pinned to the canvas from above.

“On your feet, princess. Time to show these fans my handiwork!” Hayden hissing down at her, before savagely tugging her arms upwards.

Avril yelping, being forced to her feet but standing on wobbly legs, as she’s barely able to keep herself upright on her own. But helpful Hayden to the rescue, supporting her with two arms wrapped around her waist, before dragging the Queen across all four corners of the the ring in a humiliating Walk of Shame.

Avril mumbling useless protests as her captor smiles and waves to the fans, one arm firmly around her waistband and at the same time shoving her forward on the march. Moments later, the singer weakly attempts an escape, shoving at Hayden’s chest and shoulders in an attempt to push her off of her. But Avril is in no shape to push the strong victrious blonde away from her and only manages to piss Hayden off.

“You better stop fighting or I’ll have to punch your lights out and mop the ring with your limp body. Alrighty?” Hayden hisses with her lips pressed into her ear.

The effect is immediate: Avril’s eyes widen in fear with her resistance immediately subsiding, and for a spectacular moment, the Dollhouse Queen FINALLY goes quiet. Hayden finishing up the walk before pushing Avril roughly into the waiting arms of her stablemates in the corner.

“There ya go, guys,” Panettiere chuckles at a not-so-happy Carmen Electra. “One defeated, self-proclaimed Queen as ordered. Sorry - she just doesn’t have what it takes, guys. Tell Roberts I’m available if she thinks she can do better, I’d happily give another painful lesson to any of your girls!”

With a final wink, Hayden making her way back to her own corner, fist-bumping and embracing her stablemates as crowd cheers her on for a big impressive victory here tonight!
