Results: Lookout!; Story: Vassago

BEFORE: Both these girls try to kick-start their careers whichever way possible before their reputations are forever ruined by the dreaded creampuff signature. Makenzie Vega thought she caught Willa Holland at the latter's all-time low but couldn't get out of the third round while Peyton Roi List somehow lost two managements already - and she doesn't turn 23 until next month! This isn't a "lose and you're out of FCBA" kind of a fight - not after Dove Cameron; she of 4-13 record got signed by the Hawkeye Consortium lately - but another swift punchout defeat and either Makenzie or Peyton will be in prime position to serve as the ultimate "go-to-girl" for any aspiring upstart!

Makenzie Vega wears a black crop top, red hotpants & red gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a curled ponytail. Peyton Roi List wears a purple crop top with black trim, matching hotpants & silver gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a curled ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the bantamweight division.

Round 1:
Peyton might have thrown her body around on 'Cobra Kai' lately but this is a whole different business indeed; Makenzie shows the early urgency to dominate the blonde in close range as she simply outworks List and lets her eat all the leather and then some. Peyton gets blitzed in ultra aggressive fashion and Makenzie can only get away with such a gung-ho approach because she faces a fellow struggler who lacks serviceable defense. Most of Vega's punches fail to carry significant weight but the work load alone leave Peyton in visible discomfort as she tries to hang around on her toes rather than slug it right back into the brunette's face. Makenzie keeps landing her shots over the top and eventually pummels the subdued blonde back to the ropes where List lands a couple of nice belters but still struggles to show any signs of a proper defense and gets punched into an earmuff dismay come the bell.

Rounds 2 & 3:
Peyton lost the opening round wide and drags Makenzie into an ugly clinching struggle during the next two as if she fancies her chances a lot better in such tactics. Vega might have landed all the cruel shots before but she doesn't have the supreme core strenght to muscle her way on top of the blonde's game plan which leads into some ugly spells of dire action that truly indicate why these girls are ranked outside of BWO's Top 150! An accidental clas of heads drops Vega into spasms at the bell and Peyton runs up some uppercuts on her chest before a big hook carries into the brunette's jaw. Peyton keeps the pressure up in the third but lacks outright skill to punish her opponent and Makenzie bides her time through supreme footwork but she actually looks a little hampered by that big uppercut shot in the previous round.

Round 4:
Makenzie finds success punching the blonde to the body and manages to stack up enough leather to make Peyton look vulnerable again. The younger actress breaks through with some nice uppercuts but Vega remains on top through superior punching resistance alone according to Tess Valmore in the booth. Both women struggle to mount a power-punching rally but Makenzie still looks more comfortable while getting hit and she gashes List's swinging by dropping another submarine bomb that cripples the blonde into spasms right at the bell.

Round 5:
The back & forth action continues and this time Makenzie gets caught on the jaw and wobbles to the side which allows Peyton to cash in with a rare unanswered series. Vega can't push off her heels and gets bumped to the ropes where she tries to match List's jabbing assault but actually eats the biggest punch of the lot and bends to the side with a whimper. Suddenly Peyton finds herself in total control but her cross-hooking efforts just can't do the trick and the brunette survives a difficult spell only sporting one lump under the left eye as List struggles to knock her head off despite a golden opportunity! And then it's too late as Makenzie clinches her into safety to run out the clock.

Round 6:
Tess Valmore begins to wonder if we're gonna see more creampuff at the same time tonight but suddenly Makenzie silences the Tractorpull's finest with a harpoon drive on the solar plexus that makes Peyton scream out in pain... she snaps the brunette's head back with a left hook but misses on the follow up and Vega SMOKES her with a vicious uppercut on the jaw from the inside... and Peyton buckles under the punch just so the fellow actress can add another right hook on the temple which DROPS LIST TO HER KNEES!!! There we have it! Finally one of the girls hits the deck and Peyton actually rolls to her side and spits out her gumshield looking totally vulnerable here... Oh, come on!!! One might argue a wet paper bag has more resistance than poor Peyton but she's duly counted out moment and later and even the victorious brunette cannot believe it! KO6 Makenzie Vega!!!

AFTER: Forget the underwhelming style points, the maiden victory carries a special value alone and Makenzie Vega lets everyone know that as she even hugs the ref before climbing the ropes like she's actually won some hardware tonight! On the other hand Peyton Roi List just face-planted into the "hot mess" ravine and it's gonna take some effort to find a rescue path anytime soon!
