BEFORE:
"I’m sure Liz is tough…actually, I KNOW she is. But she’s been struggling these last two years, and she got cut by GBS recently. I should win this…and I fully intend to. I know Kat and Bella get all the love around here, but….just wait. I’m gonna become the top dog in a year or two… promise. I got plenty of time!” Ginny Gardner seems unfazed over the media frenzy surrounding the other Dollhouse bantamweights who are set to battle later tonight.

Ginny's success rate is slightly below elite as she keeps producing mixed results; she closed out 2019 with a tough loss to Sophie Turner and wants to kick off the new season with a victory. Her task appears to be easier since Elizabeth Gillies has actually been released by the Global Boxing Syndicate together with her erstwhile "Victorious" frenemy Victoria Justice.

BLONDE! Magazine rips the former cast mates as being "anything but Victorious in FCBA" but there is some blonde bias involved and the New Jersey native is quick to point out that "Ginny is even more overrated than Billie Eilish" (sic!). After being relegated to the free agency shark pool one has to wonder if Lizzie is about to jump on a boxing tour across the country next? "Right after I whoop this wimpy blonde's ass!", she tells Erin Andrews who has joined the new Doll Ball season as special VIP reporter tonight.

Ginny Gardner wears a light blue crop top, grey hotpants & light blue gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a curled ponytail. Elizabeth Gillies wears a red crop top with black trim, matching hip-huggers and red gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a braid. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the bantamweight division.

Round 1:
Both girls engage in some wild swinging early on as Ginny wants to put the vistitor firmly in her place and whacks her across the mouth with a couple of good crosses. Liz refuses to back off but eats too much leather in the opening minute to sustain her own aggression and bails out when the blonde sticks another cruel hook into her lips. Gillies wobbles onto her heels in visible discomfort when the local favorite piles on more point-blank pressure and bulldozed the brunette onto the ropes thereafter. Ginny barks in her efforts once she forces her opponent into an earmuff cover but becomes slightly too one-dimensional and Liz's high guard survives the challenge until she can clinch the roaring blonde into safety. Ginny yells out in anger when the ref allows Gillies to escape from the precarious position and wastes the final stretch in a fruitless pursuit as the brunette suddenly shows some lithe footwork to avoid trouble.

Round 2:
Elizabeth looked impressive moving across the boards but she wants to attack the Dollhouse fighter and sends in another slugging drive to find the early success in the second. Gardner remains glued upstairs but gets matched punch for punch before Gillies whacks her across the boobs to open the midsection flood gates. Ugh! Lizzie tears it up downstairs to stun the blonde into loud spasms; she adds a belting cross on the liver area and bullies her onto the back foot where Ginny struggles to swing back with a meaningful response. She yields real estate upon another midsection drive and has to clinch the visitor to halt her antics but Elizabeth shakes her off in confident fashion and nails with a left cross on the temple that makes the Dollhouse fans groan in the stands. Another quick one-two finds the mouth and has Gardner hugging the ropes wholesale while Gillies still finds another belter on the tummy to underline her dominance!

Round 3:
More Gillies attacks in the third, she's found her groove punching the blonde in the guts and the Dollhouse faithul can't embrace the heat which leads into a lenghty clinching stalemate come the one-minute mark. Ugh! This still makes coach Kristanna Loken furious in the corner but the slugging response remains missing in action as Elizabeth cashes in with more body shots to gradually wear the blonde down. Ginny gets bumped onto the ropes where she eats more quick hooks on the body while the brunette taunts her into showing some balls here. Huh! Ginny swings one but bounces off the top of the brunette's forehead and gets whacked across the lips in return which enables Elizabeth to brag in delight when she swiftly delivers the follow up that sends the blonde ponytail rocking back & forth come the bell.

Round 4:
Elizabeth is up early for another body assault but that's too predictable for the Dollhouse camp and Gardner steps up to beat her to the punch that slams square on the jaw and sends the dark-haired free agent reeling on the spot! Huh! Ginny finds new life pouncing on the stunned opponent and smacks her from both flanks tearing a nasty gash over the left eye come the one-minute mark. Lizzie recovers her groove by this stage but struggles to dominate the phone booth dispute as Gardner finally blows into her guts too; both girls almost clash heads in the process as the fight descends into AMD-rules for a moment before a brutal uppercut lays Gillies out against the turnbuckle. Another wild swing follows and nails the brunette on the jaw again... LIZ IS HURT!!! Ginny sets up another one-two combo that makes the brunette roll her eyes just as she POWERS AHEAD with one brutal uppercut on the jaw too many!!! That punch pulls the plug outright and Gillies collapses on the spot amid some yelps that soon are washed away by the rampant noise from the audience!!! Ginny struts back to her corner and watches on as the fallen girl crawls into the ref's direction but collapses down on her face when the count reaches eight... the bell sounds moments afterwards but it can't save the clearly unresponsive brunette anymore! KO4 Ginny Gardner in chin-checking fashion!!!

Official Result: Ginny Gardner def. Elizabeth Gillies via KO4.

AFTER:
Ginny exchanges high-fives with her entourage and milks the extra crowd ovation as she dances around the fallen brunette for a while before climbing the ropes. "Gee…all that talk and she can’t take any heat!", Ginny giggles in delight as she has truly exposed Elizabeth's below par punching resistance tonight. Like many of these free agents, defense is the ultimate problem and while Lizzie looked more than capable of punching Gardner's midsection into a mush, she just couldn't survive a similar response when it mattered. Maybe the GBS learned that bitter truth just in time to cut bait at the last suitable moment?

Over to Ginny again and she's all smiles while trying to secure a Knockout of the Night bonus from Carmen Electra: "One-punch-KO, baby! That's all ME!!! Can't buy a highlight shot like THAT!!!"
