Before: Lane getting a reward in the form of a winnable fight--but Judd no patsy, even anxious to use Diane the way some many other blondes have in the past. Both girls do a lot of similar things in the ring. Judd may be a bit more physical overall. Lane more experienced, red cotton jockeys 2 piece for Di, black for Ashley.

R1: Lane comes out cautious, but Judd looks to take command, doubling up on the jab and committing to hard right hands as Lane gives ground. Midway through the round, Judd jams a straight right hand into lane’s teeth, nearly dropping the brunette at the ropes--wobbly butt Di covers up and gives Ashley the body as Judd rips lefts and rights to the flanks to pitch the shutout. Good round for Judd as Lane looks a little shellshocked to open.

R2: Judd settles down, fight takes on a professional look as the girls circle clockwise, right hands tucked at their cheeks, jabs flicking out to pat tummy, forehead and shoulder. Judd a little busier, and maybe a little quicker outside, getting off stepping in and forcing Di back for points.

R3,4: Lane correctly reads the hand speed situation and makes the adjustment, going shoulder to shoulder, head to head to make Judd trade inside. Both girls fitting the short left into the stomach, but Lane more active with the right, swabbing at Judd’s kidneys, wrapping up the blonde’s left arm to turn her, dropping the right hand over Judd’s shoulder to clout the jaw. Lane gets back the points in two bitterly contested rounds as the girls fight in a phone booth to the brunette’s advantage.

R5: Lane comfortable inside, working, getting off, and beating Judd up about the hips and waist. Judd starting to wince, laying in cheek to cheek but not punching and by the midway point, Lane has her up against the ropes, Down the stretch--Judd bending to the side, soaking it up to her body, when she quickly bends the other way, dragging a quick left across Lane’s sternum and DIANE TAKES A KNEE! Suddenly stroke perfectly timed inside Lanes right hand and she is hurt, cheeks puffing, hands at her gut as Judd calmly walks to a neutral corner. Lane survives the round, but gives up the knockdown as Judd steals a round with the counter.

R6,7: Girls trade rounds, lane the sixth, Judd the seventh as the blonde growing confident she’s the stronger shoulder to shoulder, Head on one another’s shoulders, the girls take turns pumping downstairs with rapid lefts and rights, just massaging one another’s bellies and waists, using legs and shoulders to push each other back. Uppercuts from both ladies score to pretty faces in tight---popping the heads back with sweaty jerks, but neither girl getting hurt in these rounds.

R8,9: Lane slowly establishing a dominance with a solid 8^th that sees her finish up on the blonde in a corner, and the 9^th that goes as a shutout as Diane bodies up, reaching in under the arms with either hand and getting off to the body with the other. Judd looking sluggish, hurting--she sits on the ropes covering up and letting Lane lay in, work at her own pace, After 9 it’s all even, but Di looks to have made it her fight as Judd continues to grind inside.

R10: Ashley Judd up tempos, getting her legs back into the fight, circling left and ripping left hooks and uppercuts into Lane’s waist and face to keep the brunette outside. Di rejected from early forays inside starts to gamble, and midway through the round, she walks into a short right hand on the face that puts her wobbly butt. Judd stepping to the left around the hurt brunette puts her combinations together, driving Lane to the ropes with a barrage of jerking rights and lefts that have Di’s head dancing. Down the stretch, Lane starting to drift, sits on the ropes and looks to slip and roll, but Judd won’t be denied. Ashley in wide spread pins, buttocks humming as she torques into punches, scrapes her left across Di’s ribs, comes back with short right hands on the face to shred Lane’s defenses and LANE GOES OUT! Diane swooning on the ropes, hands lowering, taking disastrous blows to her face slips forward to her hands and knees as Judd steps back, breathing hard through the mouth and glaring at the brunette. KO10 Ashley Judd as she breaks Lane’s heart late.

After: Crows pleasing effort between two solid girls--but Judd puts her stamp on Diane with a late KO that leaves the brunette in tears and puts the blonde one rung up. Not much difference between the two physically--Judd wanted it just a little more, dug down and came up with a dramatic finish. Kelly hu said to be interested in the blonde after this effort.
