Before: Fans of scrubbing nonstop in side fighting rejoice as Peeples signs to face Fishel. “I’ve got nothing but the utmost respect for Nia,” says an earnest Dani in preflight. “People say  ‘she’s coming up I weight, she’s too old’--none of that stuff matters in Nia’s case. Peeples is still the most complete fighter south of 120 and I have to be on point to handle her.” Peeples equally admiring of her stout foe, “Dani’s a throwback fighter and I know I’m in for a hard fought struggle, I feel I’m a little quicker than Dani, I’m fitter even though she’s younger. I’m going to have to fight her, but I’ll book her in spots, keep her off balance, it’s going to be an interesting contest.” Nia in black Nike sports bra, black high waist aerobic trunks, white shoes, messy ponytail--Dani in black sports bra to high neck, grey stretch cotton boy cut trunks, white shoes, low ponytail.

Before: Girls touch gloves, then guard up. Nia spiking jabs, roaming left, looking over the defense, Dani crouching, gloves at her moth, leading with right hands, then trying to pick Peeples up the hook. Nia slidestepping back, trying to walk Fishel into something. Peeples bending to her right to roll with Dani’s overhand rights and Fishel times her perfectly; a sweeping right sets up a hammering hook on the face, neatly catching Nia as she literally ducks into the punch. Peeples spanked flush, totters back a few steps then ROLLS TO HER BACK! Nia on her hip, badly jazzed, reaching dumbly with her right mitt as she tries to roll her knees but it’s OVER! KO1 in under a minute Dani Fishel!

After: Astonishing knockout Dani’s most devastating in years, catching the iron jawed Peeples just right and splashing the veteran to her back. Peeples OK in the aftermath, arm around Dani’s shoulder as she congratulates the youngster--Peeps chagrined, but too classy to hear a grudge. “The kid caught me,: shrugs Nia, ‘what can I say? Fishel’s a hard puncher, but I was surprised by how she set up her shots--I was so busy ducking the right, I never saw the left!” All well and good, but media types already  wondering if Peeples should consider hanging ‘em up. “Nia took that punch like a shot fighter,” says one freelance scribe, “I think we’re getting to the point where we should just enshrine Nia in the Hall of Fame and get her safely out of the ring.” Ouch.
