Nina Dobrev versus Katie Cassidy

BEFORE: From recent SNARK MAGAZINE interviews and comments made to various media outlets, there is definitely no love lost between these two. Tonight, two of the biggest stars on the “CW” collide tonight as the Vampire Diaries and Arrow are some of the year's biggest successes. Since the trade to Lookout! Boxing, it's been a red-hot second half of the year for Nina Dobrev, shooting to stardom since declaring herself and backing up her status as “prettiest” fighter in boxing. This is a claim that Katie is dismissive of in pre-fight. “I'm not saying I'm the prettiest, but I know one thing. Nina Dobrev isn't! It's time to put a stop to all of this attention she's been getting. I know since being at Lookout! Boxing she's been told she's hot. Well guess what, Nina – you're not!” Nina glares coolly over at Katie with a smile, “Do you hear that? That is somebody who is SO desperate to be the prettiest. Too bad she's not even the prettiest girl on her own show – that's Willa Holland! But guess what, in the CW and in the FCBA, I'm the prettiest boxer around. Not Annalynne, not Willa, not Jamie, not Ashley and definitely not Katie! I'm the prettiest – ME! Now, I'll have ten rounds to showcase that!” Katie rolling her eyes – apparently above it all. Nina not buying it, however, as the two pull hair and shove pre-fight but the two of them are separated and able to touch gloves. Nina, however, sneaks in a quick jab to opposing jug, drawing an outraged squeal from Katie and a wink from Nina.

Nina wearing a tight black polka-dot bikini with pink lining, with matching gloves. Brunette hair in a ponytail; Katie wearing a bright green bikini – hair in a ponytail – small white gloves.

R1: Both Nina and Katie spring forward from their corners, although neither of them are rushing into the fight. In this first round, the audience is treated to some sharp tactical boxing between the two. Katie measuring Nina with some rangy jabs, brushing her foe backwards and then circling to the side, legging away from Nina after quick delivery of each jab. Nina maneuvering in hot pursit of Cassidy, however, coming back with flurries of swift jabs and stuffing in hooks to Katie's tummy. Both of them countering and sliding along the ring, long legs loping around the ring as Katie is a little more aggressive this first round, backing up Nina slightly with the jab to give her the first round close. Katie smiles and Nina scowls in response.

R2: Katie and Nina come forward once more, increasing the tempo, coming in to target one another with rangy, clouting blows, leather spanking off one another's torso and cleavage. Katie showing off a rangy right hand, shooting out the jab behind her guard as she accurately slams her jab right into Dobrev's face. Nina caught off guard by the sudden shift in tactics, head whipping backwards, as she is blinking in shock, wobbly-butt. Katie senses an opening and takes it, stepping in close to ring up Nina's face and slam in hard body shots to Dobrev's torso. Dobrev staggers around the ring, trying to get her guard up to establish some offense of her own, managing a few jabs. However, Cassidy is relentless as she comes forward with a hard jab to Nina's jugs and then a left cross to drop Nina to the canvas with a thud in the final minute! Nina is down, shaking her head, pushing herself up to all fours and then rising to beat the count. Nina tries to pounce forward, but Katie is on a roll right now and won't be stopped behind that jab. A big round for Katie, especially with the knockdown.

R3: Nina practically snarling as she comes forward out of the corner, eager to reverse the trend of the previous two rounds. Nina steps right in to body up against Katie, bobbing and weaving to avoid the jab, slamming her own right hand into Katie's chin, face and chest. Just walloping away, trying to shove her opponent back towards the ropes, Nina stuffs lefts and right combination of hooks into Katie's tummy. Now, it's Katie's turn to back off as Nina switches tactics, eager to retaliate to Cassidy's face, smacking in leather into Cassidy's wide-eyed features. Katie fighting back, still delivering some clouting blows to Dobrev's face, head and shoulders – occasionally slinging a stinging jab to Nina's torso, but this round is Dobrev's as she gets back into the match to take her first points of the contest.

R4: Nina rushes forward, eager to bully Katie back towards the ropes but Katie is more prepared for the onslaught this round, stuffing some swift hooks down into Nina's ribs and underneath her guard, pounding her gloves into her torso repeatedly. Dobrev is clearly hurt, gasping in pain, folding over a bit but remains defiant, straight shots spanking into Cassidy's face as she refuses to give the round away. Katie, however, keeps sending out licking shots to Dobrev's ribcage as the two of them circle around each other in the ring – but more often it's Katie in pursuit as opposed to Nina. Katie takes the round close again.

R5: Katie continues to use that rangy right hand of hers, cleanly tagging Dobrev across her chin and face, dazing Nina early. Dobrev is clearly hurt and dazed, remaining defiant though as she brings her guard up, fighting from a defensive position to tag across Cassidy's cleavage and ring her up with some sneaky uppercuts off of the counter. But, in a war of attrition, it's Katie who seems to be setting the tone, switching between jabs to the face and then dipping her gloves down low to punish Nina's torso. Nina remains combative, fighting through the hurt, but her form degrades slightly and allows Katie to further widen her lead this round with her pinpoint accuracy.

R6: Nina and Katie come out, leggy beauties loping around the ring, meeting mid-ring as the two of them target each other's tummies. It's a crowd-pleasing sight as the two of them have their gloves whirling and spanking off of each other's abs, when Nina suddenly whips out a right cross across her cheek that has Katie staggering woozy. Nina pounces forward, delivering a quick jab to jug and then another straight right to Katie's face that puts Katie on her butt. Katie dazed, laying down on her back for a moment before rolling to the side. Nina shouting down to her opponent who is face-in-gloves, “Who is prettiest now, huh?” Nina confident, but Katie slowly peels herself off of the canvas to beat the count. Katie rallying off of the deck, displaying some good counter-punching as she uses Nina's aggression against her. Showing off good footwork, she avoids the hardest shots from Nina, connecting with some swift jabs towards Nina's face throughout the second minute. Nina still connects with some absolutely vicious body shots that have Katie groaning, but she doesn't back down. Sweeping right hands to face and stuffing lefts to torso have Nina backpedaling, wobbly-butt now as Cassidy takes back initiative and in the final minute, is simply beating Nina senseless. Nina gasping as she is face-in-gloves now, sitting across the middle rope, the ref considering stepping in when the bell rings. Katie belts her right in the tummy as Nina folds over, cradling her tummy and Katie leans down, hissing, “Not you!” before storming off. Nina furious, winning the round with the knockdown, but by a much closer margin with Katie's late rally.

R7: It's a stark contrast to the start of the last round as Dobrev comes out, a pout on her pretty face, clearly a little bit discouraged from the previous round but her eyes still light up with aggression. Dobrev popping out her left jab, smacking into Cassidy's features. The steady jab builds into a good rhythm, gloves smacking in to rock Katie and forcing Katie to block. But, Katie a little fresher at this point and adjusts quickly, weathering the storm and weaving her way forward. Katie ripping away punches which mainly land on Dobrev's forearms or gloves as she is displaying good defense, but Katie keeps pouncing forward and finally scores with a gorgeous overhand right cross that sneaks through Dobrev's guard and slams into her face in the second minute. Battering Dobrev down to her butt, sitting her down, Katie surges forward. The ref holds her back as Dobrev tries to shake her head, recovering, as she makes her way back to her feet. Dobrev still showing off some good clipping right hands to chin and cleavage, but Katie just bullies Nina back to the ropes. Lathering her with brutal-looking right-left combination of hooks, and switching often to poke her glove right into Nina's face with a loud SMACK! The ref pulls off Katie at the bell as Dobrev remains stubborn as ever. Internally, she must be devastated at the results thus far, but doesn't show it as her gaze remains resolute.

R8: Katie backs off slightly from the torrid pace of the last few rounds, easing off the gas pedal as she patiently works behind the jab. Katie is keeping her elbows and gloves up, showing good footwork, as Nina tries to bust her up along her ribs and torso, with Dobrev trying to deliver some hard shots to Cassidy's flank. But, Cassidy manages to block well, sponging up the punishment while sending out plenty of her own, continuing to keep slamming that jab into Dobre's face repeatedly. Dobrev's head whips backwards with each shot, shaking it as she tries to bring up her own jab, but Katie steadily manuevers from different angles to whip her gloves into Dobrev's face. Restoring some of her energy with this round, Katie can't help but call out to Dobrev after after shot to her face: “Who is prettier now, huh? Huh?” as Dobrev can only scowl behind her mitts.

R9: Katie keeps spitting out that right, rangy and unfortunately (for Nina) accurate jab, just targeting Dobrev's face. Dobrev continuing to fight back, displaying a stubborn streak, but it's pretty mean-spirited stuff from Katie, who delivers a steady diet of right and left combinations towards Dobrev's face. A quick left hook, a right uppercut, a left jab and Dobrev seems a bit spooked for a moment. Nina is sending out her jabs, trying to circle around, but unable to land her shots with any accuracy as she is clearly off-guard from Katie's attention to her face. Just steadily driving towards Dobrev's features, bullying her back towards the ropes. It's a clear shutout in Katie's favor, leaving Nina seething as she stomps back to her corner.

R10: Dobrev comes out, eyes flickering with anger while Katie's shine with determination. Dobrev starts off landing some hard jabs, eager to respond to Katie's face in kind, sending out some quick clipping jabs to catch Katie off guard initially. But, Katie retaliates harder, ringing up Dobrev's face and whipping away at her foe's tummy to double Nina over. Thumping away with steady shots to Nina's abs, digging away to torso and just stuffing in shots to Nina's face throughout the round. However, Nina won't go down, making it to the finish line on pride alone, clinching and sending in some overhead hooks to cause Katie some discomfort. But, while she's able to hurt Katie, she certainly can't stop her as Katie pounds away to glory, pushing Dobrev back into the ropes and just stuffing repeated right hands into Dobrev's tummy, then switching up with a left cross to rock Dobrev's world. When the bell rings, the ref steps in and the verdict is announced – it's no surprise this time. Even as Dobrev glares furiously, the winner is announced as Katie Cassidy via wide UD10!!

AFTER: Following the loss, girls like Annalynne McCord, Ashley Madekwe, Jamie Chung, Willa Holland, Lyndsey Fonseca Lindsay Lohan and others all tweeting quite happy to see Nina Dobrev suffer as well as offer their own thoughts on Katie's win, who is ending the year on quite a roll. Not everybody is happy about that either – least of all Nina Dobrev. Nina Dobrev has a pretty pout across her face, which is definitely scuffed-up following the constant attacks from Katie Cassidy. Katie Cassidy beaming, her face definitely a bit bruised, but victory heals all wounds as she turns her back to Dobrev, addressing the press: “Hopefully that brings Nina back to reality! Again, I'm not saying I'm the prettiest – though if you want to declare me the prettiest, I won't argue – but the fact is it's not Nina! Not even freaking close! I can't stand her and clearly, from what you saw tonight, she can't handle me!” Dobrev disputing any notion that Katie is prettier or better in the days to come, declaring Katie clearly “jealous of her success and beauty.” in numerous interviews. However, this is clearly a significant fight and Katie came in super-motivated and in the process, beat Nina completely to hand Dobrev her first official loss since joining her new stable. This will be a sensational rivalry for years to come as these two can't seem to resist comparing against one another but for tonight Katie has the advantage. Knowing Nina, that is not something she will be able to tolerate for long heading into the future.
