Tyra Banks is at the podium

“Charlize and I fought three times, all in 1999. My first fight was against her. She won that fight by a decision. Our second fight was a draw even though she was saved by the bell three times. The third time she got lucky and KOed me. Then I came into my own in 2001 and started winning titles. Never heard anything from her. She never challenged for a title fight. I have no idea why. She was always up for a title fight. I guess she was just scared. We finally meet again tonight. When I learned this was going to be her 400th fight, I called her and congratulated her on almost unbelievable achievement. I told her that it was hard to believe, after having her mouth punched, lips cut, eyes blackened and nose bleeds that she was still a classic Hollywood beauty, and now a big time action star. She was very gracious and thanked me for the compliments. Then, I told her that it was my duty to punch her out in our fight and that was what I was going to do. You know what she said? She said “well then, bring it on” That’s what I am going to do”

As usual Charlize refuses the mic, just giving a friendly wave to Tyra

AFTER

Theron walks over to where Banks is being brought around and stands watching. She helps getting Tyra to her feet and give her a hug and then heads back to her corner and the dressing room. The press is quite critical of Charlize for the way she ended the fight. The last punches they say were uncalled for, but they haven’t been in the heat of an FCBA battle where emotion sometimes over rides propriety. Lawrence and Robbie have already decided to have a serious talk with the GOAT. They know fighters have scores to settle with the Goddess or Theron with other fighters, but she has to cool it down so she or other fighters don’t get seriously hurt.

In a short press conference, Charlize addresses the room of reporters as champaign is passed around “Look I know I have been severely criticized for uncalled punches recently and for that I apologize. I have already sent note of apologies to my opponents. When this push to get to 400 was suggested, I was for it. That was a mistake. We made a schedule and then it was changed and I ended up with twelve bouts in three months. I am not 22 any more. I shouldn’t have agreed to that kind of schedule. After every one of those bouts, I was tired and beat up. I knew I would be in trouble if the bout went nine or ten, so when I had my opponent hurt, I had to make sure she wasn’t going to get up. That’s not an excuse, it’s just the way things were. Now that the drive to 400 is over I’m getting back to a more reasonable schedule. I’m booked for the rest of the year with more bouts than I would like, but no more three or four bouts a month. Frankly your criticisms were justified even though I didn’t enjoy reading them. Now I got almost four weeks off. I’m going to chill for two weeks and then get ready for the PPV. Thank you for hanging around and listening”
