(Lookout! Atlantic Boxing vs Free Agent)

Intro:
Tonights main event in Atlanta's State Farm Center sees Alice Eve and Samaria Regelado look for a massive win in the Contender Six tournament, this is extra special for Samaria as it is a home coming for her.

Alice is 37 years old; she stands 5'5 ¼, holding a record of 11 wins, 9 coming by way of knockout, 11 defeats with 1 draw.

Samaria is 26 years old; she stands 5'7, holding a record of 1 win, that coming by way of knockout, with only 1 defeat.

Coming into this fight Alice has the only perfect record in the Contender tournament, beating Rose Byrne and Lottie Moss to be top of the standings.

Samaria on the other hand made her debut in this tournament, beating Lacey Turner in maybe the shock of the tournament, she'd go on to lose to the wily veteran Rose Byrne in her second fight.

As you'd expect the main focus coming into this fight was around Samaria's home coming, she did local media and even holding a open workout for fans, making some though wonder if her eyes are on the prize or focused on being the center of attention.

Well during her video for the BBU TV station, sitting in front of the white wall with the blue BBU badge, she smiled as she said "I can't wait for this, finally I get a chance to fight in front of friends and family, god I am just speechless"

After looking around excited, she says "don't think I have forgotten you Alice, I know that she is a great fighter and it is shown by the fact that she is top of the pile in this tournament so far" nodding as she grins.

"But Alice I am here to win, I have a whole city begging me to kick your ass, I can't let them down can I?" Winking as she stands up.

Alice meanwhile is relaxed as she sits down in the hot seat, jokingly saying "is it just luck that I seem to be the one who fights the local fighter in this tournament? I fought Rose Byrne in her home town, now I am fighting Samaria in her backyard, guess I need to make an away kit"

She then gets more serious as she continues "I'll give Samaria credit, she has come into the BBU and she looks great, speed and power mixed into that model body, it's amazing to be frank"

Tapping her chin before she finishes by saying "but as Rose proved, your chin is suspect, I am going to test it out further and continue to be the woman to beat in this tournament"

Fight night; Alice is out first with Nicole Ritchie beside her, she gets boos mixed in with cheers, she takes them in her stride as she grins while jogging down the aisle towards the ring.

The actress is wearing a black sports bra with baby blue trim, matching trunks and shoes, baby blue coloured gloves, her blonde hair is in a ponytail.

She flexes her arms at the top of the steps, before stepping inside the ring with a big grin, warming up in her corner as Nicole reminds her to ignore the crowd, this isn't a popularity contest, it is a stone cold fight for supremacy.

The crowd erupt as Samaria heads out the curtain onto the aisle, waving at her fans as she jogs down the aisle, her coach following her down the aisle.

The model is wearing an Atlanta Falcons shirt, getting it taken off on the ring steps to reveal a red sports bra with black trim, matching trunks and shoes, black gloves with red thumbs, her hair is tied back into a braid.

Stepping inside the ring, Samaria poses with her arms out at the side, enjoying the love of the crowd before heading to her corner, she looks focused as her eyes meet Alice's across the ring.

The referee waves the fighters to the center of the ring, when they get their they start jaw jacking, Samaria telling Alice that this crowd wants to see her out cold, Alice simply replying to bring it.

They are told to touch gloves, they swipe them together as they are more interested in getting back to their corners, the bell is rung to start 10 rounds of bantamweight action.

Round 1:
"Ding" both come our up on their toes, throwing several combos early on as Alice knows from experience that Samaria will be hyped up for this, the hometown crowd spurring their girl on as the arena is buzzing.

Dipping down to get in closer, Alice lands a crisp three punch combo to the body of the model, she looks like she will be pressing forwards but gets caught with a left across her face to stop her.

As things settle down a little, Samaria begins to bash Alice through her guard to her face with stiff straights, stepping back when Alice tries to plug away to the body.

While the experience is definitely on the side of Eve, Regelado is nicely controlling the pace for the most part, dancing side to side with her jab looking picture perfect so far.

Though as they enter the final minute of the round, Alice is starting to find more ways through to get to those abs of the Atlanta girl, making the crowd boo when she gets in a left to the body and an overhand right to the cheek.

Both let their hands go in the dying seconds of the round, Samaria maybe wanting to give the crowd some excitement as she abandons her stick and move style to simply brawl with her opponent up till the bell.

Where both women share a rye smile before turning to their corners, Samaria getting warned not to expose herself to undue risk, they feel physically she beats Alice if she boxes smartly.

Round 2:
Coming out their corners looking up for this, Samaria goes back to what her coach said, rifling punches into any gaps she finds in the guard of Alice, while keeping an elusive target.

For the first minute of the round Alice is struggling to land a glove on her more quicker opponent, just needing to focus on her defense as her brain works out a strategy.

It seems to come as she feints with a left before quickly dipping down to rifle a right into those abs, giving them a good testing as she gets inside the reach of Samaria to work them.

Samaria smartly nudges back Alice, who doesn't stay too far away though, the aggressiveness of Eve is making Regelado need to stand and trade more then her or her coach would like.

Especially as Alice again shows off her class, using a shoulder roll to dodge a straight punch, then fires in an uppercut that knocks back Samaria, opening her up to two cross punches that make the model retreat back behind her guard.

That opening minute seems to be swung around in this final minute, Samaria can only land single punches and not many of those out her guard, Alice is keeping her pressed near the ropes with combinations making the crowd get to their feet to try to roar their girl to fight back.

The round comes to an end with Alice nodding over to Nicole, she looks business like tonight as they chat away about where she needs to improve.

Round 3:
Moving her upper body more to dodge punches aimed at her head, Alice is causing a more cat and mouse affair to start, neither landing too much early on, instead they are looking for openings to strike.

Then Alice finds a way in closer, bumping back her opponent with a left shoulder, lashing in two hooks to the body as she gets her head down.

Nudging back Alice again, Samaria is looking angry as she barks out when landing a left/right straight into the face of Eve to knock her back a step.

It looks like Samaria is going to take the fight to Alice, taking the center of the ring as she fires at the head of her smaller opponent, most though find forearm or glove as they are mainly coming up the center.

Leading to Alice timing her attack, ducking a straight to land a right to the ribs, an overhand left follows to the jaw of Regelado to make her cry out and back off.

Alice coming on strong as she presses back Samaria to the outside of the ring, the fighters trade stiff shots to the others face when Samaria is forced towards the ropes.

Just before the bell an overhand right smacks Samaria across her cheek to turn her head, when the bell rings Alice doesn't celebrate another strong round, instead she jogs back to her corner to no fan fare.

Round 4:
The crowd seems to be quietened down, Alice taking them out of it with her success so far, hunting down Samaria with her main target still the body of the younger woman.

As Alice lands a good right to the body; a left lands across her eye, making Alice retreat back blinking to clear her vision in it.

It gives Samaria the chance to come back at her, driving Alice back towards the ropes with her straight punches, several knocking sweat from the head of the actress.

Who pulls Samaria into a clinch, a little swelling is forming under the right eye of Alice, the referee steps in to push them apart as the crowd is coming to life.

When they resume fighting, Samaria is throwing more punches in volume after looking a little subdued, both women land some nice punches on the inside to send sweat flying.

An uppercut from Samaria knocks back Alice, the Lookout fighter is pressed back towards a corner, where Alice has to cover up as the taller fighter looks to smash her fists through her face, most land on gloves though as Eve shows her defense is still staunch.

At the bell Samaria yells "come on!" To a loud roar from the crowd, her coach tells her "that was more like it! Catch her out and make her pay for stepping into your backyard!"

Round 5:
Stepping back out their corners with sterner looks for their opponent, both land hard shots as they circle to start, Samaria landing the better punches with her hand speed and reach.

Alice though gets in the pocket to work after slipping a right, digging two hooks to the body, getting nudged back though, a right smashing Alice across her cheek.

A right into the top of Alice's head opens her guard up for two more punches to follow, Samaria drives back her opponent towards the ropes.

Where Alice is covering up as she tries to find a way off the ropes by moving side to side, Samaria though is keeping her in the firing line, working hard to pry the shell open to get at the head of Eve.

Going into the final minute; Alice finds her opening to dip down and lands a right uppercut to the body of the model, moving away from the ropes as Samaria lands clipping shots across the top of her head.

Trying to force a heated exchange; Alice is hunting down Samaria, who simply keeps her back with rangy shots, not wanting to be caught out after what has been a great round for her.

The round ends with the crowd standing to cheer their girl, she allows herself a smile at them and flexes her right arm while heading to her corner.

In the Lookout! Corner Nicole is telling Alice to take a deep breath and to reset the game plan, Alice says that she hasn't given up yet to make Nicole smile.

Round 6:
Both fighters come out trading jabs to start, Samaria not looking worried at all as she steps out her corner, looking to use the support she has to fuel her it seems with some hard shots landing to the face of Eve.

Who has some blood running from her nostrils after a pinpoint double jab to them, she backs off a moment as Samaria comes hunting her down now.

A missed right though by the model allows Alice to land an overhand left to land on the cheek of Samaria, two more piston like punches land to the abs of Samaria to make her gasp out.

Trading in tight as Alice sticks to her opponent, heads rubbing as they trade to the body, Samaria maybe trying to catch up with Alice on that front, showing some inexperience maybe.

Especially as a left forearm nudges her back to create a gap to land an uppercut that knocks the head back of Regelado, who steps back covering up.

Finding herself driven to the ropes, Samaria has the crowd behind her but right now her body is taking the brunt of Alice's attacks, forcing her to clinch up as they enter the final moments of the round.

Which ends with both nudging apart, Samaria is seen mumbling "f***" as she turns back to her corner, not wanting to give Alice any confidence.

She seems to have though as Alice returns to her corner looking less tense then before, Nicole praising her as they discuss the round and the game plan for the rest of the fight.

Round 7:
Back towards the center of the ring they go, Samaria doesn't seem to have the same spring in her step now, she is firing single punches to try to get the range back where she wants it.

But Alice times her charge, deflecting a right to step inside with an uppercut that lands flush, Samaria wobbles as she steps back, A LEFT HOOK SENDS SAMARIA TO THE CANVAS!

The crowd goes silent as Alice turns to the neutral corner, 1...2...3.. Samaria shakes her head as she moves to all fours, 4...5...6.. The Lookout corner seem to think this is a slow count, 7....8.. As Samaria crawls to the ropes, 9... Dragging herself up with a little shake in her legs, the referee checks her and gives her the benefit of the doubt to continue.

As they resume though it is clear Samaria isn't recovered, her punches are batting Alice but have no real power, meaning Alice is simply walking through them to bash her across the face with two cross punches.

Samaria stumbles back into the ropes with Alice hot on her heels, THE TOWEL COMES IN FROM SAMARIA'S CORNER, THEY DON'T WANT TO SEE HER GET BADLY HURT!

Winner Alice Eve TKO Round 7

After:
Alice takes another step towards the title of Contender Six winner with this stoppage, she is quick though to check on her young opponent, hands on her shoulders as she speaks to her.

The crowd are dead silent now, they thought Samaria was going to pull this out the bag, especially her performance through the middle rounds of the fight.

Thankfully for them Samaria is able to get back to her corner with some help from Alice, who actually gets a round of applause from a crowd that wanted her to be knocked out cold only moments before that.

Back in her own corner; Alice gets a hug from Nicole, both discussing how they felt the referee risked Samaria just to protect themselves from the crowds scorn, making the referee look away when they hear what is being said.

In Samaria's corner she is sitting with a towel on her head admitting "I thought I had her but damn she is f***ing tough" her coach replies "well we warned you, that's why you had to wear her down before going guns blazing"

After both women are cleaned up and head to the center of the ring, Samaria shows her class by lifting the hand up of Alice for all the crowd to cheer, Alice thanking her for the nice touch.

"You are gonna be somebody in this ring, I can tell you that if you continue to fight like this" Alice says to Samaria as they begin to talk about the fight and the models future, Samaria thanking the veteran for her compliments with a hug.

"Now you better win this tournament since I don't want to lose in my hometown to someone who can't close out the job" Samaria jokes as she playfully punches the arm of Alice.

"Oh put your money on me honey, Maya and Lacey don't stand a chance when I am at my best, I just hope the champion is watching me" says Alice as Samaria nods with a grin.

Both shake hands before Samaria gives Alice the spotlight in the ring, she hugs some members of her family at ringside before beginning her trek to the back.

While it is another defeat for her, Samaria has looked as good as you can really in losing, her coaches are not looking too worried about her future, especially as she has Lottie Moss to look forwards to in her next fight.

Alice bows to each side of the ring, showing respect to the crowd as they clap her for her efforts, as she leaves the ring she has a date with Maya Jama in the next round, a win there and a loss for Lacey Turner will give Alice the tournament win wrapped up with one fight to go.

Right now though she is just happy with how things are going as she talks to Nicole, both have an arm around the others shoulder as they discuss how they will enjoy getting to sleep tonight with this victory.
