Before: Ross reduced to mid week non-televised affairs against soft opposition to rebuild her snake bitten rep. Turner talking the talk--she’s not laying down for Charlotte, she’s coming to fight--but remains to be seen if the brunette can summon those veteran skills to offset Ross’ apparent physical advantages, Ross in light blue sports bra, navy speedos, Janine in black sports bra, red adidas terrycloth trunks.

 

During R1: Both girls fighting from closed stances, right hands at their cheeks, fencing withy the left jab and stepping into hooks from middle distance. Ross turning into her right hand, squares up as she slings it in, and has Turner retreating rather than go toe to toe at closer range. Round to Ross.

 

R2: Wheels are turning for Turner as she continues to stay outside, banging out a trusty of unremarkable jab, and keeping that right hand at home. Charlotte mixing up her punches, trying to break Turner down with combinations, and finishing her flurries with exclamation mark left hooks to the waist. Janine still not busy enough to get respect, retreating and keeping her back off the ropes as Ross makes the fight.

 

R3: Janine reads Ross well this round: Charlotte squares up her feet to throw right hands, and as she opens the round with a cross, Turner rolls with the punch, coming back with a brisk right uppercut on the teeth which catches blondie with her feet parallel, Ross scoots to her butt--immediate look of shock and disappointment as she bounces, but she’s up quick. Best two-way action of the fight results as Turner gets brave, going shoulder to shoulder and trading smacking hooks to the belly and chest inside to the bell.

 

R4:Ross working her way inside, finally getting sustained pressure on Janine’s midsection, causing the brunette to wilt to the ropes. Ross doing some nice work with her elbows, throwing rights to the body to disguise the elbow strike against Turners ribs. Janine seated ropeside, nips counter uppercuts but can’t get good leverage from her defensive posture this round.

 

R5: Turner out with a little hook-and-pivot, working clockwise around her blonde and nibbling at Charlotte’s waist and cheek with solid left hand connects. Ross getting turned, doesn’t punch, and spends most of the round bobbing and weaving, moving her head underneath Janine’s hook, but not making the brunette pay for missing. Turner’s round.

 

R6: Now Charlotte uptempos, taking the momentum back and putting punches together on Janine’s torso and tummy. Turner going a little wobbly butt, looks to clinch, but Ross won’t have it--she punches her way out, and feasts on Janine’s gut with wide lefts and rights, turning her hips into the blows to bend Turner over. Janine finishes up with her butt on the ropes, gritting her teeth, moving her head, but getting spanked to the body as Charlotte digs in with the A leather downstairs.

 

R7: Turner very game, comes out with a renewed jab, pre-empting Charlotte’s attack and opening the blonde up for some biting hooks on the right eye. Janine on the outside less intimidated--punching with Ross, doubling up on jabs and hooks, and simply outhustling Charlotte overall. After 7, both girls are looking ahead--hooks are taking their tolls on pretty faces in this one.

 

R8: Charlotte answers, jabbing with Turner, squaring up inside and pounding the gut with fierce two-fisted determination this round, Janine wilts to the ropes, turning her body to accept Charlotte’s punches, keeping her arms in tight and just trying to block some of Ross’ pressure. Charlotte with her head on Janine’s chest, stays busy, beating in Turner’s arms and lower belly, straying recklessly low with the left hand as Turner cringes from borderline shots to the trunks. Ross starting to shove and slug, palming Turner’s arms out of the way and burrowing in like Li’l Smokin’ Joe at times.

 

R9: Turner showing the first signs of fatigue breathing through the mouth, looking to clinch right away rather than trade dukes. Ross still doing an excellent job of fighting her through Turner’s holding, starts to nail Janine flush on the eye with a sharp left hook, and right crosses are piling up on Turner’s mouth to turn the brunette’s head side to side. Ross beating her girl steadily at the bell, gives exhausted Turner an appraising look as the brunette staggers back to her corner,

 

R10: Charlotte out methodically, touching Janine with the jab, then stepping in to send shudders through Turner’s legs with the jolting left hook to the pit of the stomach. Ross stepping right, jab, hook, then body up to push Turner around--it’s a beating. Janine still trying to time Charlotte, but Ross is shaking off Turner’s counter right hands, and bruising the brunette up with heavy lefts and rights in brisk combination. Turner getting bounced around the ring, but she keeps her feet, covering up, clinching tactically, and doing the little things to survive. Ross clearly disappointed at the bell, but Turner looking battered and worn pre-figures the decision: Unanimous Duke Charlotte Ross.

 

After: Good professional turn for both girl--Ross working out the kinks get back on track as Turner gives her some rounds, not to mention a few surprises early, Janine exposing some flaws, but Ross making adjustments, finishes the bully as Turner just didn’t have the legs to hang in against the blonde’s work rate. Ross pretty vocal in criticism of Gillian Anderson granting a shot to a “worn out” Dana Delany--in effect accusing Gillian of ducking, and Dana of being a soft touch.
