Before: Cat anxious to prove the demoralizing loss to Charlize is behind her - seeking out the flavour of the month to make a statement. "Cat Bell needs to step aside," says confident Kate. "I'll finish what Charlize started, and finish it vigorously. Cat Bell won't go rounds with me - I won't allow it." Bravado brings to mind similar statements made by Carrie Ann Moss, the last moviestar brunette to seriously push Bell. "That wasn't pretty," as one Celebrity Ring scribe recalls. "Cat put that uprising down hard - she's definitely motivated by this kind of thing coming at her from her own backyard." Bell in dark leopard print bra and panties, white shoes (FHM) - Kate in black bikinik black shoes.

During R1: Bell showing no signs of Theron-hangover early - diagnosing Beckinsale's style on the move and hitting her hard. Kate with the tight weaving crouch - uppercut's the right punch and Cat's jerking in left uppies off the firm jab to stack Kate up early. Beckinsale out of her crouch is there for right hands - Bell dropping in a pair of beauties to light Beck up at the minute mark - Katie staggering to the ropes wide eyed. All Cat Bell from that point on - vintage, muscular beat down along the ropes. Bell riding her forearms onto Kate's shoulders, bumping her back, jackhammering her flanks, looking for tight right or left uppercuts anytime Beckinsale buckles forward. Hamhanded drumming leaves Katie wobbly butt - Bell looking her over at the break, already piecing together what's going to work the rest of the night.

R2: Kate showing terrific resilience, sheds the punishment, attacks Bell with vigour to open the second. Beckinsale fists tight to cheek, bobbing and weaving, bringing her feet with her as she advances and pounding out the firm jab - Bell forced to retreat, looking to range to spot her own stick. Kate a master of hooking out of the bob - she's dipping, digging, moving her head - Bell missing some tapping rights and lefts as she just tries to find the mark. Beckinsale working the flank, working the flank, staying on the body then CHECKING THAT CHIN! Horrific, jarring hook on the button drapes Cat shabby in the ropes, vacant stare - hands at her chest and BECKINSALE PILES ON! Right hand, left hand - short, drifting punches on the mouth - Bell's head set to jostling and THE REF STEPS IN! Good Lord - Cat Bell erased in 2!

After: Carrie Ann Moss couldn't do it, but Kate steps up and takes care of business - Cat Bell badly stunned, can't withstand Kate's blistering, gatling gun attack. Beckinsale crowing in victory - she's not afraid of Pratt, she wants Biel of course, Jennifer Garner must fall and Charlize will be a trophy - the usual euphoric gushing after a stupendous upset win like this. Bell listless, shellshocked - sharks are already circling. "Fighters are starting to say it out loud," says one BLONDE! reporter ringsider, "Jeri Ryan was very vocal about Cat having her spirit broken by Charlize Theron and this is the proof. A prime Cat Bell eats Kate Beckinsale's lunch. The Cat Bell we have left gets beat up - simple."
