Before: Pratt/Merryman one if the best fitness big girl pairings--Merryman a Kiana protégé pounding her way into the Top 10 with sheer brute forcer, not to mention her mentor’s advantageous arrangements ringside as promoter for most of the fights. Both girls recently engaged in a televised game of La Conquista (a beach game--girls push and carry one another into designated end zones) in which Pratt used up a humiliated Merryman, and brunette eagerly looks to the ring for payback, Pratt still bad mouthing Kiana, explaining her recent loss to Tom as result of having to dehydrate to make the weight on the day of the fight, the long trip to Hawaii, jet leg, etc, etc. Tanya in teal sports bra and stretch shorts with a velvet finish, Pratt in pink bikini top, pink thong over black stretch shorts. Outdoor setting at the Hawaii Hilton.

During R1: Both girls look to grapple early as the ref constantly breaks initial clinches, then Tanya starts to nail Pratt coming in with big right hands before falling inside. Vicky getting wobbled, and by the midway point, Merryman is loading up. Tanya with her feet wide, sees Vicky staggering a little, and just waits for the blonde to walk into the punch, driving in off that back foot and sending Pratt’s head a-swiveling. PRATT GOES DOWN! Eating a big right hand, Vicky slumps against Tanya’s exposed back as Merryman bends low on follow through, then VP falls to her hands and knees with a glassy look, Up at 8, Pratt’s mitts are at her hips as she looks woozy--Tanya chugging her way into the blonde’s big body with curling lefts and rights, just tanning the meat with power punches to the bell, Pratt sent reeling to her corner, gets off to a shaky starts as Merryman plays to the crowd,

R2: Girls get macho, trading right hand licks to the chest and stomach, left hands at their sides for ballast as they drive in off the back foot to the crowd’s delight. Senseless tit for tat slugging slowly goes Tanya’s way, and Vicky wilts late, lips trembling as she backs off. Merryman walking her blonde down, swinging her fists like sledgehammers has Pratt bent over at the ropes, and bashing leather spanks against shiny bronzed skin at Vicky’s lower back and hops to the bell. Another big power punching round for Merryman who bounces back to her corner with that pageant smile in place.

R3: Tanya bodying up, walks Pratt to the ropes, palms up on the blondes shoulders then goes to work. Merryman with bludgeoning, methodical lefts and rights, tenderizes Pratt’s thick shoulders and biceps, curling her punches hard against the flesh until the blonde’s limbs go numb. As Pratt’s guard breaks down, Merryman finishes the round with scooping right hands to the stomach, working the dense muscle as she holds Pratt’s right bicep to one side with the left glove.

R4: Bad starts gets worse for Pratt--rocked by hard punches, then beaten down to the arms and body, Vicky doesn’t look right and Tanya puts her body on her foe to make Vicki’s legs tremble. Tanya effortlessly walking the blonde back, putting her head on Vicky’s shoulder and lifting her fists from her hips up into Pratt’s midsection and robs. Merryman with her hands low, just clubbing it up inside as Pratt groans, clinching and vibrating with pain. Ref working hard separate the beefy pair, and Merryman just keeps wading back in with a hungry look, eager to get back on and work her blonde. Pratt hurt numerous times as Tanya bangs at her waistline, and Vicky holds back tears at the bell.

R5: Merryman taking a round off, backs to the ropes and lets Vicky get off. Brunette with her arms in tight, gloves at her face, blocks a lot of shots with her elbows and arms, but Pratt makes the most of the opportunity, taking big backswings and bouncing her fists iff Merryman’s tawny waist. Tanya just laying on the ropes, pushes Pratt back now and again, but she’s content to let Vicky spend up some energy this round.

R6: Tanya with a big, bruising shutout, takes it back from Vicky who is slugged slack-jawed this round. Brunette with her arms loose and low, lifts her fists up into Pratt’s body, jerking the blonde over and exposing her back and sides to swiping, spanking blows,. Tanya not quick fisted, but her heavy mitts play all over Vicky’s torso, beating the blonde up and down and leaving Pratt wincing at the bell.

R7: Tanya going forehead to forehead, pushes Vicky back, banging the left hook hard against those quivering abs, and jerking the right uppercut onto the chin, Early on, Pratt cringes from a hard hook to her sternum, and Tanya pounces, licking the uppercut to bust Pratt up, then REALLY torquing the uppercut again, pulling the punch back tight to her chest as Pratt’s head snaps back with a crack and PRATT GOES DOWN! Comical knockdown as Vicky topples straight legged to her butt, shaking her head as blood trickles from the corners of her mouth. Pratt survives and to her credit, goes back inside and holds her ground the rest of the way as the girls bash away to the bell.

R8: Too much Tanya, Merry man pacing herself well, comes out churning, bodying up, lifting her punches up from down low, and constantly putting Pratt on her heels. Merryman smearing her blonde around the perimeter of the ring, palming up on the biceps, pushing Vicky deep into the ropes with awesome leg drive, then putting leather on meat inside to leave Pratt shaking. Merryman sucking wind at the end, looks a little winded in her corner.

R9: Tanya arm weary, just lays in with Pratt and Vicky gets off, slowly, but with authority, turning her brawny shoulders into clubbing strokes across Merryman’s brown midriff. Tanya’s butt kisses rope for the first time as Vicky fights off Merryman’s chest, just putting punches together downstairs.

R10:Vicky coming out strong, clinches up under Tanya’s arms, walks her back into her corner and applies a steady beat down for 2 minutes, often forcing Merryman to clinch from heavy right hands to the midriff. Merryman looking shaky, wilting late, and Pratt keeping a steady pace, shucking her brunette with a shoulder, then jerking out straight, short lefts and rights to bang across Tanya’s broad chest and rocky ribcage, Midway through the round, Vicky holds Tanya’s right arms with her left and starts bouncing into short right hand clouts of the mouth. Merryman’s head snapping back, lolling forward--she looks to be in trouble, but clinches her way out of it and down the stretch, Pratt has nothing left. Fight peters out as neither has anything left to give, and an exhausted Merryman happily lifts her jmi9tts at the bell, laughing at the sight of Pratt’s puffed up face and throbbing body.

After: Tanya with a surprisingly one-sided beat down, lays it on thick to give Pratt a hurting. Dangerous fade late, but Vicky had soaked up so much she just couldn’t take advantage, and a very pleased Kiana Tom joins Merryman in the ring. “It’s like I’ve beaten Vicky up all over again!” says exuberant Kiana as Tanya stands obediently in the background.
