Before: Halle reeling from 2 high profile beatings at the fists of some of boxing’s most prominent blondes, outs her esteem on the line against yet another in Pressly. Jaime coming up in weight, comes in the smaller woman--might be the edge Berry needs to keep the aggressive blonde off her. Remains to be seen if Pressly can punch above her weight. Berry in short spiky do, white/yellow, Pressly in light blue bandeau bikini, long braid.

During R1: Pret5ty to look at when it works: Halle outboxes Jaime beautifully, luring the stalking blonde across the ring, turning her at the ropes, steering Jaime with the jab and keeping her well outside. Berry’s athleticism very apparent--Pressly patiently walking her down but can’t get off against the moving target.

R2: Halle continuing to dictate terms--when she’s dancing, Pressly doesn’t have any answers despite having a pretty good set of wheel herself. Late in the round, Jaime starting to lunge with right hands, induces Berry straight back--a wide slapping left jolts Halle sideways and Pressly is finally on her. Jamie lashing with wide left wrap around hooks--slinging right hands has Berry wide-eyed, stunned up against the ropes at the bell. Pressly stealing the round with power--Halle looking like she can’t find her wallet.

R3: All Jaime Pressly as she mercilessly walks Halle down and lets her free-swinging fists pound upon the foe. Berry looking shaky, fading to the ropes and trying to slip punches, but Jaime is overwhelming the defense. Bell to bell beat down from Pressly sees her abuse Halle from corner to corner--round ends with Jaime licking cruel left and right uppercuts to the bulging breasts of her foe, pounding a look of pain onto Berry’s face at the break.

R4: Jaime fearlessly bearing down, slips the jab, comes over with a crashing right hand and Berry is wobbly butt in the opening seconds. Halle stumbling backwards, getting painted with potshot ting lefts and rights as Jaime hounds her to the ropes. Berry woozy, glassy-eyed, hands at her chest as she leans way into the ropes to escape. Jaime rubber-armed, levers a whippy left hook to the hips, then to the jaw, leaning into the go-home right hand on the face and bending low on follow through. Berry goes out on her feet, sagging to a seat on the ropes, eating an overkill left hand clout across her sleeping face as Pressly is pulled away--KO4 Jaime Pressly.

After: Relentless seek and destroy from Jaime shatters what’s left of Halle’s prestige, handing berry her third KO in a row. More important for Jaime, the power followed her up--Pressly calling out Electra at Bantam, Liu at her own weight, confident she can fight either powerhouse in their own backyard and win.
