Intro:
Maisie Williams and the undefeated Javicia Leslie clash with one fighter in a slump, the other rising up the rankings, can Javicia jump over Maisie in said rankings or can the youngster score a big victory to get back on the right path going forwards?

Going into the fight both women made their thoughts known over social media, Maisie posting "I'm done being the punch bag of the division, I will earn my way to the top and no matter how many times I get knocked down, I will keep getting up again" with the photo below attached to the post.


Javicia reply was a little cheeky to say the least, posting "sorry to disappoint you Maisie, I am going to box you around like your my gyms punch bag, you are tough but you have shown you're a little girl in a woman's world 👊" with her own photo to show how ready she is for this fight.


Fighting time, out first comes Maisie with Ming-Na Wen beside her and cut woman Eva Carneiro following them, Maisie looks deeply serious as she walks down the aisle, ignoring her supporters as they whistle and cheer her, she is wearing a red sports bra with white trim, matching trunks and shoes, white gloves, while her hair is up in a ponytail, she steps through the ropes into the ring bouncing on her toes in her corner, looking determined this won't be another bad night for her.

Javicia then comes through the curtain to her own cheers, first time the "Batwoman" star has made it onto PPV, she looks excited as she jogs down the aisle with her coach, she is wearing all black gear with her hair braided, once in the ring her friendly demeanor disappears as she looks deeply focused, knowing a win on this stage will move her up the rankings, she shadow boxes as both fighters never take their eyes off each other.

It's clear as they come to the center of the ring that there is tension between them, Maisie says "little girl huh?" Javicia replying "yes you are little bytch" as tempers are surprisingly starting to flare up on the normally calm pair, Maisie scowls as she fires back "wait till I kick your arse and stand over you, I dare you to say it then" when they are told to touch gloves, instead they simply turn on their heels back to their corners, referee nods to the time keeper to ring the bell to start 10 rounds of flyweights action.

Round 1:
Off they go with Maisie looking to dive in early, whacking away at the body of Javicia, who nudges the firecracker back then lands a flush one-two combo as we are off to a quick start, clearly Maisie wants to push the pace early against the older fighter.

Javicia is caught a little flat footed by an overhand right to her jaw, then two short lefts dig into her breadbasket as she groans out, backing off from her smaller opponent, Maisie drills in another two punches to the abs of Leslie, who is beginning to cover up more tightly.

Half way into the round with the mouse smacking the cat around in this battle of small and tall, Maisie gets shoved back by Javicia, who then catches her with a double jab to the top of her head, followed by a short right cross that pushes Williams onto her heels, with the "Batwoman" actress finally able to put her foot on the gas pedal.

Taking the center of the ring, Javicia looks much better now she is working Maisie around the outside, taking a few flurries in heated exchanges, mostly now keeping her opponent where she wants her, till the dying seconds of the round when a feint by Maisie opens Javicia up for a straight into her stomach, an overhand left then slams into her cheek to turn the head of the older woman to the side.

At the bell it's a good start for Maisie, though Javicia won't be too worried yet as she showed she can control the action, it's just all a question of who can enforce their will on this fight as both stare hard at each other from their stools.

Round 2:
Back out they come with Javicia now expecting the early charge and combatting it with her footwork and jab, her extra reach and height is allowing her to knock back the head of Maisie, not taking as many digging punches into her own body as they fight around the ring.

Slamming a short left hook to the body after dipping under a straight, Maisie gets back to work on the body of her opponent, using a well drilled body attack to make Javicia groan out as she drives her back towards the ropes.

A shove though allows Javicia to move away from the ropes, while landing a short left hook into the side of her opponent's head, now it's Javicia driving back Maisie onto the ropes, the "Game of Thrones" alumni covering up as Javicia doesn't want her to breath, short hooks banging into the side of Williams head till she can clinch up.

Broken apart Maisie is struggling to make much of a dent in Javicia's defenses as the taller fighter is keeping her at range now she has found her rhythm, with the final moments of the round seeing Javicia land a double jab/straight combo to back up her opponent before the bell rings, a great round for Leslie as she jogs to her corner nodding to her coach.

Round 3:
Coming back out their corners, Maisie is mixing up her targets more, soon enough though as Javicia lands a double jab into the nose of her opponent, making Maisie shell up as Javicia steps into that middle of the ring, where it seems whoever controls is dictating the action.

When Javicia can't land flush up top, she lands two punch combos into the body of Williams to try to draw her out from behind her gloves, leading to the Brit pulling Javicia into a clinch to force the referee to step in to split them apart, getting away from the ropes.

They resume fighting with Maisie sidestepping a jab to land a short right into the ribs of her opponent, then a short left onto the chin of Javicia to show she isn't giving up the ghost so easily, knocking back Javicia onto her heels as the tempo of the fight increases again.

Less then a minute to go with both going hammer and tongs in close range, Maisie showing grit her because Leslie seems to have more power of the two, Maisie though sticking to her game plan of chopping down the older fighter to the body, things get scruffy as they clash heads, referee needing to warn both to be careful as they burn holes through their opponent with their glares.

At the end of the round Javicia may have done enough with that solid first half to the round, both though are fired up for this as they jog to their corners with looks that say they want to win this badly, Javicia tapping her gloves together keen to get back at Maisie.

Round 4:
Javicia now looking to put her stamp on the action early by doubling up her jab as she steps forwards, Maisie moving more side to side looking for openings, both slamming in the hard shots as they look to grab control of the action.

Crouching under a jab, Maisie lands a right flush into the stomach of Javicia, who groans as she bends over with a left hook landing onto the ear of Leslie to turn her head, Maisie looks to have hurt Javicia as the taller woman backs off.

Dipping under a right cross this time, Maisie lands two short uppercuts into the body of Leslie, who gasps before a right lands on her chin to rock her backwards, THEN A SHORT RIGHT SLAMS RIGHT INTO HER LIVER AREA, THAT PUTS JAVICIA ONTO HER KNEES HOLDING HER BODY WITH BOTH ARMS!

"Not so little now am I bytch!" Yells Maisie before she is ordered to the neutral corner, 1...2...3...4.. Javicia spits out her gumshield groaning as she tries to catch her breath, 5...6.. Trying to push up to a knee, 7...8.. Javicia learns the pain a liver shot can cause as she cries out and goes back to her knees, 9...10 that's it! Javicia stays down for the count!

Winner Maisie Williams KO Round 4

After:
Maisie gets a much needed win to get her career back on the right tracks, it shows the importance of it that she turns to mount the bottom ropes of the corner she is in, raising her arms into the air as she looks to the heavens relieved to win again, her fans chanting that they love her, making her laugh as she blows them kisses.

Meanwhile Javicia has her first taste of defeat in a particularly nasty way as she is crying with the pain in her body, over comes her coach with an ice pack trying to console her, maybe Javicia let the occasion get to her with this being her first PPV fight, all the uncharacteristic trash talk before the fight showing that.

When Javicia stands up the crowd applaud her, though Maisie certainly doesn't as she glares at her while her gloves are being taken off by Ming-Na, Javicia staring right back as these two won't be sending each other Christmas cards this year.

As Javicia catches her breath on her stool, Maisie goes to the middle of the ring, getting her left hand raised by the referee as she stares at Javicia, making the point clear that she is the better fighter, Javicia nodding but maybe not done with Maisie yet.

Out the ring goes Javicia still looking sore as she heads to the back, the unbeaten run is over, now can Javicia find her way back onto the right path and can she become a champion someday?

While in the ring Maisie poses for the camera cheekily blowing a kiss to them with her right hand along with a wink, admitting "God I miss this feeling, it's great to be back winning fights" getting a pat on the back by her coach, while Eva gives her a big hug.

They all step out the ring together with the first smile on Maisie's face in a boxing arena in months, a look her management will be hoping to see more of, the big question of course is will Maisie ever fulfil her potential? She might have to look at the likes of new Hall of Famer Megan Fox for someone who clicked at the right moment with the right stable to become a champion as inspiration.
