Results: BBU; Story: Vassago

BEFORE: Last weekend's V8 Supercars round in Winton has been postponed which slightly delayed Tahan Lew-Fatt's intended triffecta against the BronzedOz Boxing fighters. After seeing both Sophie Monk and Zoe Ventoura go down with a loss the head trainer herself has to step in and prevent the inglorious whitewash tonight. Nicky Whelan's record remains extremely mediocre to say the very least but she hopes to upset the high-flying rookie who might be looking ahead to Olympia Valance already"

"I get that Tahan thinks she's the new Best Thing in ACB boxing. Well, it's not like I can say she's totally wrong after she beat both of my girls BUT she sounds arrogant enough to suffer a rude wake-up call. She's not THAT good, folks and it's my job to prove it!"

Over to Tahan who tells Green & Gold's Sarah Cumming that she's just getting started indeed: "Look, Nicky signed the Herbert twins lately so that closes the door on me joining that stable but I basically cleaned up their minnows. They have little depth and I'm too dangerous to be faced against Renee or Elisha just yet. However there are some other girls who acknowledge my future stardom. Why else would Olympia Valance stalk me on twitter? She knows her days as top Aussie bantamweight are over. First up, I'll have to bang Nicky out and then we can talk about little Miss Valance!"

Tahan Lew-Fatt wears a purple bikini set with black trim & yellow gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a curled ponytail. Nicky Whelan wears a red one-piece swimsuit, jeans shorts & red gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a custom ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the bantamweight division.

Round 1:
Tahan shows her slugging intentions early on and gallops into the blonde's midsection before powering ahead with a swift uppercut combo that nails Whelan on the chin and slumps her on the heels straight away. The free agent sensation lets one rip over the top thereafter and barges into Nicky's face finding almost no response as the older woman struggles to embrace the early heat. Nicky tries to deke to the side but fails to escape the brunette's range and gets pummelled onto the ropes where Tahan lays it into her with ruthless precision. She splits the mitts with ease and snaps Whelan's head back & forth before blasting her across the mouth to slump the blonde into loud spasms. Another well-timed uppercut tags the jaw moments later and spins Nicky against the turnbuckle just so Lew-Fatt nails her with a dirty hook on the kindneys right at the bell as well.

Round 2:
Nicky tries to beat Tahan to the punch but only grazes her on the cheek and eats a powerful right hook in response which triggers a hectic slugging exchange in the center of the ring. Tahan almost gets too excited over this opportunity and shoots some of her shots wide off the mark which allows Whelan to stick her foot in the door as she clobbers the brunette in the breasts and makes her wince in pain. She adds a left hook on the temple and drops Lew-Fatt into coverage but doesn't have enough agility to chase her down thereafter. Tahan weathers the half-hearted jabbing storm and tries to fire back in close range come the final minute but a clash of heads stalls the action wholesale.

Round 3:
Nicky shows encouraging signs of jabbing prowess as she holds the line trading blows with the brunette before scything her across the mouth. Tahan loops a meaningful response over the top but doesn't carry enough power to send Whelan to the backstop and has to soak up a heated jabbing rally up the middle that makes the blonde vocal. Nicky pushes ahead with some crisp uppercuts and survives the single-hand attack from Lew-Fatt who gets bumped onto the ropes at the two-minute mark and loses her grip on the exchange looping over Whelan's head. Meanwhile Nicky tags her on the chin with a solid double and drives a late series into the brunette's bumpers that leaves Tahan fuming at the virtual wall next to the ring in visible anger. Sarah Cumming reckons that's not gonna make Olympia Valance blush at all as sure enough, the Girls Friday contender is among those watching this fight.

Round 4:
Tahan seeks a pacey recovery and outworks Nicky in close range to start the fourth but eats a nasty left hook on the mouth and has to hassle away from her range thereafter. Nicky gets vocal as she taunts the reeling opponent and manages to light her fuse which leads into a hectic tussle in the center of the ring again. Punches fly thick & fast but the precision goes away before another clash of heads slows the action down. Nicky is really furious over this and pours a low series into Tahan's guts as both women end up hugging the ropes late and display more wrestling & clinching skills to close out the round.

Round 5:
Nicky starts out hot and picks Tahan off in close range again before the brunette swings through the attacks and nails the blonde on the nose. Ugh! Nicky stumbles to her heels upon impact and gets pummelled with a half-uppercut series on the chest! She turns sideways and Tahan loops a crippling shot into her ear before adding another buster on the nose. Uh-oh! Nicky wobbles forward with a whimper and eats a brutal uppercut on the chin THAT DROPS HER FLAT ON HER BACK moments later!!! Cue in some wild ovations from the virtual fan wall - Tahan blows them a kiss as she struts back to the neutral corner. Nicky shakes off the knockdown at seven though and gives the rookie a lenghty bytch stare only to find herself under more slugging pressure thereafter. Lew-Fatt goes in hard over the top as she seeks the KO missile but only succeeds into trapping the older woman butt-in-ropes in the closing seconds of the round.

Round 6:
Nicky fails to respond to another slugging blast from Tahan and seems affected by the knockdown after all. Tahan flies in to snap her head back before looping another nasty hanger on the ear to slump Whelan into spasms. The BronzedOz fighter tries to swing from her heels but the timing is all off and she eats a vicious scything cross on the nose that bursts the bloody stream upon impact! Ugh! Nicky covers her face with both gloves but still can't stop Lew-Fatt from slicing her up with more hooks in point-blank range. Tahan tees off with more nasty bombs and destroys the blonde's high guard before slamming one hook on the wounded nose too many... DOWN GOES WHELAN!!! The blonde drops to her knees and stays down on all fours staring down the blood stains on the canvas as the merciless count passes her by! KO6 Tahan Lew-Fatt!!!

AFTER: "Thanks for trying, cow! That was a nice work out!", Tahan places her foot on Nicky's back and poses for the cameras but quickly shifts her focus on the challenge ahead. And you know what that means:

"There's no way the next Supercars round gets postponed so I'm ready to welcome Olympia fookin' Valance in Hidden Valley on the 20th June! That's right, bytch! Put your money where your mouth is! My boys from Penrite Oils will pay up to see the local star beat up a funky slag like you. I can't frickin' wait to smash you into pieces!"

Official Result: Tahan Lew-Fatt def. Nicky Whelan KO6.
