UNIFIED BANTAMWEIGHT TITLE

Posted by simguy on September 7, 2012, 9:47 am

BEFORE: "She IS much improved at bantam," Neve says of Jen in prefight. "Sturdy, compact, efficient. That said, the only elite bantam she's taken out is Alba - and that with a lucky-punch KO...I think we all know I can't be had like that. You guys might have her as my number 1 contender, but it's my job to prove the rankings wrong. She's just not strong enough to be in there with me, and I'm going to punish her to prove it."

Hewitt surprisingly upbeat - relishing her status as underdog against brick-mitted Campbell. "Lemme tell you guys 3 reasons why the sports books have this thing all wrong," Jen grins at podium. "One: I've been competing against Campbell since Party of Five. I had her in-stable with Jeri for years, where frankly, Neve did underachieve, and I know why. Two: Only Theron and Fishel have more hard miles on the odometer than Neve, and if you take the 5 most punishing, career-altering fights each woman has had, Neve's brawls are by far the most draining. And three: the weight cuts to bantam are killing Neve, as they are Britney. They know 5'5" lightweights can't compete, so they do what it takes to hang around, but Neve walks around a pretty tight-welter...you make that cut for a few years and it's like taking extra punches. So not only am I going to compete with Neve, I'm going to defeat her. Not bragging guys: promising!"

Neve in black bikini; yellow gloves; shoulder-length black hair damp. Jen in her lucky white bikini; black gloves; long brown hair tangly, with bangs.

During R1: Neve: dukes up; dropping the jab out and down; stepping forward responsibly. Hewitt showing a little bounce early - changing directions, exploring Neve's balance; doubling up the jab to get into Neve's jugs a bit. Minute mark, Jen pounces on a slow Campbell jab, POUNDING that stubby right cross hard to chin! Neve jerked a quarter-turn to her right, lips pursed, eyes wincing...Jen scoots-to, hugs Neve up from her left side, trapping the left arm between the bodies and hustling Campbell into ropes. Neve pushed awkwardly into cables - her right arm through the strands...Jenny laying on the champ, keeping butt back, legs in sturdy A-frame until ref's break. Jen with a quick jump-in off the break, clanging another short right off chin...Neve sits in ropes, covers up earmuff. Jenny: ripping lefts and rights to paunch, then clubbing right/left up top...Neve getting shelled, huddling down behind her defences. Jenny digging short, tuff left hooks in behind Neve's right elbow, softening up the champ; follow-on clubbing rights to left ear spill Neve in wonder along the ropes. Leaping left hook catches Neve's face, punching her head back floppy...she's sputtering on the apron, taking another cracking right to chin; draping back on ropes when a Jenny left hook spanks flush off face. Hewitt stepping to her left to stay square, pounding Neve straight, stubby right hands directly to tummy...Campbell wincing, reaching to push Jenny off by her shoulders, but Hewitt always right back in slugging. Down the stretch, Neve plugging short right hands to Hewitt's paunch...Jenny taking, then torquing into a short right to mouth...gobsmacked Neve sags into ropes spellbound, staring and JENNY'S ALL IN! Hewitt's buns a-ringing, jugs a-jumpin' as she pours in swinging rights and lefts from the hips, belting Neve's stunned face...IS NEVE GOING OUT??? Bell: Jenny pounding home an extra right cross as zombie Neve spills to her right, hitting her corner in a fog. Jenny grinning, jogging back to her corner in high-spirits...champ juuust about going out in a rowdy first!

R2: Rolling start for Jenny as ref's back is turned...Hewitt able to engage Neve in the Frontstreet corner. Neve frowning, right tight to jugs/left across her gut, left shoulder pointing Jen's way. Jenny jabbing Neve's front, then leaning into stamping straight rights, pounding pecs while her back (right) foot skips happily up off canvas. Jenny really getting weight forward as she plows straight lefts and rights into Neve's torso...cranky frowns Campbell's only response until she finally pulls Jen into clinch/gets ref's break. From there, Neve looking to circle to her right, keeping hands up - jabbing Jen; pushing her by her shoulders. Hewitt walking Neve down, bobbing under shots, then lunging into scary hooks...frequently forcing Campbell to flinch/lean away.

R3: Aggressive Jenny gets after Neve again - scooting across the ring - stooping to jab that gut; straightening up into short-arm hooks; looking to slip Neve's jab or right hand, then roll back into that short, stout right cross. Campbell's chin up to the challenge of the Hewitt right hand, but Jenny landing with surprising frequency, maintaining initiative as Campbell gives ground through 3.

R4: Sluggish Neve continues to yield initiative to busy Jen: Hewitt bobbing on approach; doubling up the pawing jab; rocketing righty over the top, then diving in to tie up around Neve's left flank, trapping either Neve's left or right arm in the clinch and driving her right flank into ropes. Campbell fretting at the blatant holding - Jenny often cinching up tight on Neve's left side, keeping left cheek behind Neve's left shoulder while pushing Campbell into ropes. Leads to grinding, energy-expensive writhing along the ropes as Neve seeks to turrrrrn herself in Jenny's grasp, then wedge her arms in under Jenny's to lever apart the hold. Hewitt keeping her head in Neve's chest throughout, frequently getting opportunities to pump the tummy both hands while Neve's trying to squirm out from under. Bell: happy Jenny jogging back to corner all rosey-cheeked, jugs a-jumpin'...Neve frowning, shoulders slumped as she wanders thoughtfully towards her corner for break.

R5: More Jenny-on-Neve violence...bigger champion lethargic, looking disheveled and harassed thus far. Jenny jabbing gut; turning over opportunistic right hands to chin. When Neve pushes Jenny in her shoulders, Hewitt's quick with the hook, clouting Neve's chin. When any right hand lands hard to turn Neve slightly to her right, Jenny jumps in on Neve's left side, hugs her up, traps one arm, and waddles her into ropes, laying on her Big until ref's break, or Neve can squirm her way into fighting position. Long stretches of Neve laying on ropes, Jenny's head pushed into Campbell's tits, Jenny's hands working paunch and thighs hup-hup-hup as grumpy Neve's forearms push down on Jenny's upperback. Hewitt warned for low blows, but she's got a point when she says: "She's pushing me down!"

R6: Better, more constructive Neve as she steps in off the jab, pushes Jenny's shoulders, walks her down with the short hook to tits, then clubs her a right atop the head as Jenny ducks. Neve using her strength, pushing Jenny out of dug-in positions...champ finally walking her girl down, forcing Hewitt to circle.

R7: BOOMING right lands early for Hewitt, catching Neve with arms outstretched, punching Campbell's face hard to starboard. Neve's curvy legs hold firm, but she's stunned, stooping forward in earmuff, giving up her flanks. Jenny looming above Neve's lowered head - cuffing the ear a light left in order to get a thicker left hook down behind right elbow. Right side, Jenny SLAMMING away behind left elbow - that back (right) foot skipping up off canvas as she buries leather into Neve. Campbell able to crowd Jenny to ropes, but Hewitt writhes-arms, gets under Neve's arms and turns her into ropes...stocky Jen showing leverage and strength as she pushes Neve down. Working out of the wrap - Jen keeps left arm in under Neve's right, head in Neve's tits while PLOWING that right hand to paunch. Neve grimacing, sponging up the pump until she can tie up for ref's breaks.

R8: Neve grim, resolute: dukes up, she walks Jen down behind a howitzer jab - covering up to block the receipts, then pushing or punching Jen into steady retreat. Hewitt's turn to scowl in frustration: she's banging loud on Neve's rounded shoulders and biceps, but can't slug through the defences...meanwhile Neve's landing drip, drip, drip jabs, and a number of clouting hooks across jug to keep Hewitt cranky.

R9: Girls dig in, each grinding jug with her left shoulder, taking turns belting away robusto at close quarters. Neve systematically clobbering her rival's jugs - hooking rack tidy; lifting in the short right uppercut; even tossing the odd short right forearm in there. Jenny working paunch via clouting rights and reefing left hooks, putting discomfort on Neve's face, but still not depleting Campbell's legs. Pushing and punching proves a crowd-pleaser as girls work in constant contact...Neve catching Jenny a wide, clapping right across jug as Hewitt's backing away at bell.

R10: Jen bobbing on the spot, hooking out of the crouch, dropping sneaky right hands to chin...Neve staring in punishment, getting outhit as she's trying to push Jenny around. Muscular, short lefts and rights work Hewitt's rack as Neve retreats in good order, but Jenny takes back the initiative when an aborted right sets up a surprising left hook to chin! Neve staring, tottering backwards into ropes...she covers up earmuff, then gets GUTTED as Jenny POURS in the stubby straight right hand to breadbasket. Hewitt slugging like she wants to punch her fist into Neve up to the shoulder...Campbell sitting in ropes, badly hurt by that stocky shot. Jenny shifts-right, wraps Neve up on her left side and pushes her into ropes...Jenny's sturdy legs planted in strong A-frame as she lays atop Neve, smothering her. Ref's break offers little respite - Jenny jabbing jug, then pouring in the straight right chaser, stamping away on Neve's pecs. Campbell showing right at her jugs/left across gut...she's cranky, laying on ropes, letting Jen get her back into straight, shocking torso-punches. Bell: Jenny cries out "YES!" all excited and happy...Neve listless, bowing her head and hoping for the best. Comes back UD10 for the winner and NEW bantam champ - Jennifer Love Hewitt!

After: Neve contemplative, silent in her corner as her wraps are removed...contrast that with the hugging-and-jumping jiggle-party in the JKO corner. "I came in loaded for bear and Neve got old tonight," Jenny bleats happily. "I actually think the message I sent in the first round got through: I hurt her badly with a right hand, and I don't think she ever really got back on track. Tried to finish her, but it's like sinking the Bismarck, so I just stayed busy, kept pouring the gloves to her and got the duke!" Bit of an upset helps erase the heartache of dropping a best o' 7 to Elisha Cuthbert...Jennifer Love Hewitt delivers the belts, once again establishing stocky/curvy dominion at 120.
