Before: Balk impressive in defeat in her last outing. Williams respectful of the newcomer in pre-fight, but very much taking the role of favourite for herself, Fairuza frankly dismissive of Michelle, refuses to repay the sportsmanship, calling Williams a “mediocre” fighter. Michelle in white and black tiger print sports bra and loincloth, black shoes and gloves. Fairuza in plaid sports bra and short skirt, white shoes and gloves.

R1,2: Fairuza takes the first, Michelle the second in very tightly contested action. Balk a little more nimble on her feet, but not using her legs, preferring to stand in with Williams and trade forehead to forehead. Brisk, high contact stuff-hard to judge rounds as neither girl appears hurt, or tries to clinch.

R3: More of the same--toe to toe, tit for tat--girls just clipping their shots in compact arcs to the chest, belly and chin. Final minute, Balk suddenly jumping to the right, opens a fat angle for her left hook, catching Williams o the teeth and nearly driving her forward to her knees with a clubbing overhand right on the temple. Free swinging power late erarns separation for Balk as she leaves Williams swooning at the bell.

R4: Michelle responding with a grinding shutout, bodies u and pounds skirt with both hands. Balk’s legs freezing up as Michelle fights off her chest, chugging away to the body, then nudging Fairuza back with a shiny shoulder.

R5: Balk breaking down to the body--she’s hunching forward, elbows in as Michelle starts to open up, walking forward with swinging lefts and rights to the flanks with hollow thudding impacts. All Williams to the final minute when balk uses that quick step over to the right and nails that sweet left hook again flush to the teeth, dropping in the go-home right hand over Michelle’s left shoulder. Williams staggered--seconds left--Balk squares up and flashes that good hand speed, batting Michelle’s sleepy face left and rights with clubbing combinations to drive the blonde to the ropes at the bell. balk stealing a Williams round with the late explosion, indulges in a little trash after the bell.

R6,7: Fairuza now stepping left and right around her girl, popping that jab from an extended left hand, and chopping that harmful right from the shoulder to pulp Michelle’s face in these rounds. Williams able to get her licks into Fairuza’s body, but balk initiating, landing first and last--she’s starting to dominate the exchanges.

R8: balk circling, gets things going midway through with the hop to the right, hard left hook, harder right hand and MISH IS HURT! Williams busting up, gloves at her lips as she wobbles to square up and Fairuza draws down a hail of leather, pelting Michelle with lefts and rights to drive the blonde to the ropes. Final minute becomes a beat down with Michelle propped on the ropes, leaning drowsily forward--Balk on widespread legs, hands low, reefing left hooks to the tummy, slashing right hands around the guard to lump up Williams face at the bell.

R9: Balk taking a half step back midring, walks Williams into a gorgeous right hand over Michelle’s pawing left--Mish nearly taking a knee is all trembly and hurt from the opening bell. Balk working methodically-often hacking 2 and 3 right hands down onto Michelle’s temple then twitching a short left into the stomach, stepping right to keep Mish turning. Williams battered once again this round, but punching back in the final minute to avoid the shutout.

R10: Balk all grins at the bell but a grim-faced Michelle Williams charges out, traps Fairuza in her corner and gives her a bell to bell beating that has the crowd on their feet. Glorious shove and slug from Michelle has Balk ragdolled, bounced up against the turnbuckle--all Fairuza can do is cover up and roll with the storm as Williams bludgeons away. In the end, Mish has had too much taken out of her--she cant break Fairuza down and at the bell--Balk lifts her mitts and taunts the bleak-eyed blonde to the decision: UD10 Fairuza Balk.

After: Upset of sorts--Williams underestimating both the power and quickness of her foe as Balk hurt her blonde repeatedly in this fist--Williams struggling to regain her legs time and again after soaking up very punching from her foe. Still, strong finish from Williams sends the message that she had plenty left--Balk overstating her case in post fight.
