CHAMPION: CHARLIZE THERON (THE ACADEMY)

1. Cameron Diaz…is eight for ten with her only losses coming to Palicki and Theron. Who just HAPPEN to be the reigning Light and Welterweight champs…

2. Bridget Regan…How far can you drop her for losing to the greatest fighter of all time?

3. Amanda Righetti…Has lost only five times in 28 fights. Beat Brook and lost to Patton in the interregnum. The latter would have cost a normal fighter a few more spots due to ranking disparity. Righetti's earned a pass.

4. Leelee Sobieski...has now won six straight.

5. Cassidy Freeman...is four for her last six after an impressive win over Gena Lee Nolin. Also has wins over Casta, Govich, and Biel in there, and one of the losses was Righetti.

6. Stacy Kiebler... Kiebs is nine for her last 15 and has Theron's scalp among those nine.

7. Ali Landry...has won five of nine, but lost two in a row. Most recent outing, a loss to Govich, cost her a few spots.

8. Nadia Bjorlin…Sultry slugger was idle during the interregnum and dropped a spot as a result.

9. Natasha Henstridge…is five for her last eight against tough competition. Has that fourth win over Righetti, so she's still plenty dangerous.

10. Milena Govich...has won four of last six with wins over De La Garza, Law and Michelle Ryan. It was the last outing, though, a punchout of Landry, that opened some eyes and put her in the top ten.

11. Gena Lee Nolin…Fell to Cassidy Freeman in her return match for Sceej. Says more about Freeman than it does about Gena Lee.

12. Brooklyn Decker…Decker is eight for her last ninewith wins over welters Cat Bell and Everhart. Only loss in that time was to Theron.

13. Taylor Cole-has won seven of her last eleven, but has dropped three straight.

14. Elizabeth Berkley...seven wins in her last twelve tries against top comp. Has management again. That never hurts.

15. Kristanna Loken…has fought three of the top four in her last three outings. Beat Regan. Lost to Righetti and Theron.

16. Rebecca Romijn...has won five of last nine and looked good both beating Michelle Ryan and losing to Righetti in most recent outings.

17. Moon Bloodgood...has won nine of fourteen.

18. Katherine Heigl...may be a bit inconsistent or perhaps it's the high level of competition. There's no doubt this beautiful blonde has all the tools and she HAS won six of twelve and her victims include Theron, Lancaster, Durance and Bloodgood. Most recent fight was a loss to top contender Landry.

19. Katrina Law...tough, hard-hitting newbie has won five of eleven and two of her last four with wins over Henstridge, Bloodgood, O'Keefe and Freeman.

20. Kelly Brook…has lost three of four. No shame in Landry or Righetti, but Lima's a head scratcher.

21. Megan Gale...has won four of last five and showed just how scary she is in punchout of Mandy Moore. Staying active for Megan is easier said than done, because folks aren't lining up to take that punch.

22. Sarah Lancaster...is five for her last thirteen with quality wins over Heigl and Righetti, twice.

23. Daniela Ruah…Portugese beauty dubbed "The Next Cat Bell" had a four-fight winning streak broken by Joanne Kelly. Kept her out of the Top 20.

24. Mandy Moore…Broke a four-fight losing streak with an impressive win over Rihanna. Moore would seem to have the talent to fight at the top level of this division. Let's see if she can build from here.

25. Michelle Ryan…Has lost two of last three. Losses, though, were to Govich and Romijn. No shame in that.

26. Catherine Bell…Coming off of an upset loss to Minnie Driver on heels of a brutal, near whitewash loss to Brooke Decker, Bell nearly pulled one out against Ruah, but couldn't avoid a third straight loss.

27. Torrie Wilson...has won only three of last eight, and the wins aren't looking as good as they once did: Casta, Everhart, Moore. Needs to get back in the ring.

28. Jodi Lyn O'Keefe...broke into the FCBA with a loss to Law, then proved she belonged by beating Moore.

29. Abbie Cornish…beat Prepon for first FCBA win. Looked good against Righetti. Then beat Jennifer Lawrence. Has management. Looks like being a factor.

30. Paula Patton…probably isn't going to compete in this division consistently. But. If you can beat Righetti, you can fight here. And you belong in the Top 30, too.

31. Rihanna…loss to Moore cost her a few spots. She's inconsistent, but she's young and has plenty of power.

32. Laura Prepon...Has had a rough year. Got obliterated by Righetti and gave Cornish her first FCBA win. Oh, yeah. Got management and lost it. Then lost to Bloodgood.

33. Kate Upton…finally broke through with a win against Vergara.

34. Lucy Lawless…return to the FCBA was a loss to Torv. Proved she could still hit. Can likely still compete at welter.

35. Minnie Driver…return effort against Cat Bell after 8 years out of the FCBA turned out to be no fluke. Beat Bell in the rematch.

36. Estella Warren...has lost six straight, but those were to higher-ranked fighters (Romijn thrice, Righetti, Bloodgood and Berkley). Before that, won three straight and those victims included Charisma Carpenter, Kelly Brook and Theron. But. Um. Gotta win one here, soon, Estella. Seriously.

37. Gemma Atkinson…The lovely Gemma finally has won two in a row, stopping highly-regarded Swanepoel and easy-to-regard Hazell. Has momentum going.

38. Cindy Crawford...has won three of eight, but those eight include quality wins over Cat Bell and Nolin.

39. Mary McCormack...hard-hitter has a 1-1 record in two fights, the win a KO of Brooke Shields. Probably a bit long in tooth to make a run at the title, but the younger welters aren't lining up to take her punch.

40. Angie Everhart...has lost six in a row, but the losses were to Landry, Kiebler (twice), Bloodgood, Decker and Wilson. No cupcakes there.

41. Mariska Hargitay...has won two of last three, but hasn't been in the ring since '08.

42. Monica Bellucci...still dangerous, especially on home soil, but has only a win and a draw in her last seven.

43. Brooke Shields..Big Brooke broke a five fight losing streak by breaking Prejean's face.

44. Sophie Marceau...has won four of her last five, including wins over Bell, Casta, Berkley and Zeta-Jones. Hasn't fought since '04.

45. Daisy Fuentes…is three for her last six, but last strapped on the gloves in '07…THAT one, however, was a one-point loss to someone named Theron…

46. Rachel Hunter...big Kiwi beauty can still fight, but has only done it twice since '05.

47. Dina Meyer...has won two of four, but had only two fights since '06.

48. Tyra Banks...yes, yes, she can punch, but she's lost six straight and her last win was in '06.

49. Mariah Carey...three losses in last three fights. Last win? In '06 like Tyra.

50. Karen Gillian...newbie redhead has yet to taste FCBA victory with losses to Regan, Law and Rihanna. Not that any of those look particularly bad, mind.

51. Kate Walsh...redhead is 1-3, but has a good win against Sobieski. Her losses? To Crawford and Nolin twice. That second loss to Gena sent her dropping…because it just might have ended her career.

52. Uma Thurman...has had only two fights since '05. Lost both. But they WERE against Cat Bell and Nolin.

54. Jenna Elfman…is only 2-7 career, but her last win was an impressive one over Ms. De La Garza in '09.

55. Elle MacPherson...veteran is two for her last four but only fight since '06 was a recent loss to lightweight Swanepoel. Has management now. May see more action.

56. Nicole Kidman...3 for her last five. Her last fight was in '05, though.

57. Tia Carrere...last win was in '04. She has two losses and a draw since.

8. Ashley Newbrough…is 0-3 since return to FCBA. Followed losses to Bloodgood with ones to lightweight Garrett and Sobieski.

59. Victoria Silvstedt...has lost eight of nine and hasn't fought since '06. Still smokin' hot, though.

60. Nikki Visser...has lost three straight and hasn't won since '06.

61. Lauren Graham…last win was in 2004.

62. Liv Tyler...has lost five straight. Competed at times against Sobieski. Could be she just needs some rounds.

63. Peta Wilson...last win? '04. Last fight? '05.

64. Sandra Bullock…6-9 career and hasn't fought since '04.

65. Naomi Campbell...no wins and two fights since '03. OK. Two fights in a boxing ring.

66. Monica Brant…3-4-1 career…but hasn't been in the ring in almost a decade.

67. Anna Falchi…last fight in '02. Has a 2-4-1 career mark.

68. Jorja Fox…last graced an FCBA ring in 2003. Is 3-7 career.

69. Carrie Prejean...Is 1-11 and has lost ten in row.
