Before; Allen making moves--strong challenge of the Drama Queen herself, Debbe Dunning--Krista looking to establish herself as a serious lightweight threat. Dunning happy to oblige, undaunted by the physical specimen in front of her--Krista’s just another KO victim waiting to happen as far as Double d is concerned. “Krista’s a runner,” sneers Deb in preflight, “not a fighter. If you’re not going to come forward against me, you may as well lie down ‘cause you’re gonna get STRETCHED!” Allen with all the tools necessary to take advantage of Deb’s fading skills and suspect legs, but executing against D never a foregone conclusion. Purple sport bikini, black shoes Deb, red tie-side bikini, white shoes Krista.

During R1: Allen slashing in, lights Debbe up the sudden left uppercut--Dunning stomping back on her heels, righting herself, grinning and spanking her mitts together. Allen gambling, jumping in a lead right hand on the face, then pulling back out to pull the hook across Deb’s chops--clean, sharp punching flush on the face--Dinning nodding, stepping forward, but waiting her turn, Krista sees it, jabs to the body and head while stepping right--just touching Deb to keep her from getting off, giving her angles to move her feet. Slicing in and out from Allen from all four compass points, putting punches together, sparking the jab off Deb’s face--ferocious pace set by the sensual brunette, Round ends with rigid, digging blows at the bell, Shutout Allen--Debbe all smiles in her corner despite the early swelling and redness on her face.

R2: Allen back in with a hammering lead right, glove smashing loud off Deb’s face--Dunning not laughing anymore as Allen’s just tearing it up. Krista on steel-sprung legs--darting in with the right, bounding out with the whippy left, catching Deb flush and walking away to the right as Dunning resets, Deb stepping forward, but always coaxed into waiting by a sudden jab or shooting lead right, then forced to cover up as combinations rain down. Allen getting off up top and finishing in the gut--obvious strategy to drain Debbe’s power as early as possible. Dunning getting stubborn, dropping her gloves, facing into blows--she’s taking a horrible shellacking to her. Allen uncanny in her ability to bound out of range to escape Dunning’s Gatti-esque hook--Deb’s swinging it, but can’t land it through 2. Shutout Allen--Dunning sent to her corner with visible swelling around both eyes and blood from the nose.

R3: Krista moving in right hand at her temple-she catches Deb’s hook on the glove, counters with that ripping left uppercut bingo on the chin and DEB’S LEGS GIVE A QUAKE! Krista chopping the right hand on the face and turning over the hook--crowd roaring as Debbe takes murderous punishment on her face and just leans into it, head swiveling side to side, arms crossed at chest and stomach. Allen stepping right as she jabs Deb’s eye, then she’s back in with the right on the jaw, moving Dunning to her right. Allen hopping forward with a shivering straight right arm hook on Debbe’s breadbaskety, getting it again and again as Debbe backs up to the ropes, Krista’s eyes blazing as she jams away straight lefts and rights between the mitts, straightening Debbe up, then hooking the midriff again--hooking it--HOOKING IT! Dunning groaning hurt now, all bravado gone--she’s taking a beat down and just isn’t prepared for this kind of all-out effort from Allen, Gets so bad at times, Krista’s able to drop her hands after landing hard, screaming “WOOO!”, then tearing into Debbe with another booming shot off either thigh. Sensational flurry at the bell from Allen: she edges in close, going at Debbe with tight, clawing lefts and rights, elbows in, all torso and legs on the blows as Dunning’s guard dissolves. KRISTA GOES JUG! Allen treating herself to Debbe’s breasts, great jagged left uppercuts, thumping in over and over at the bell, Dunning ragdoll with shock--Krista snarling, nostrils flaring at the bell as she leans in close, breathing in the intoxicating scent of hurt. Shutout Allen.

R4: Allen with a harsh lead right hand--Debbe boozy to her left, hands low, staring back as another quick, chopping right hand spanks off her lidded left eye. Debbe awestruck to the ropes, trying to form a ramshackle guard, getting battered as Allen steps in and gets off with rapid fire lefts and rights. Allen so sharp--twisting her torso into the punishment, but snapping fists back to her chest in position to get off again and again--EVERYTHING’S landing. Dunning just windblown, shipping shots, heaving the odd wide hook but nothing’s on it--Allen easily leaning in and out, front leg to back, putting her mitts on Debbe. Midway through--Krista polishes Debbe’s belly a swatting series of lefts and rights, works her way upstairs and cashes in the chin with a clanging hook as Deb’s own left sails--DUNNING SINKS HURT INTO THE ROPES! Krista humming with cruel delight--hops right to get a quick hook across Deb’s drowsy face, Deb all busted up, pushing out weak leather and getting creamed--it’s ALL Krista Allen! Krista dips left, jolts Deb that left uppercut on the chin to undo brunette’s legs again, then pulls the hook over Deb’s right arm to clobber that jaw--DOWN GOES DEBBE! Deb reeling to her left, bouncing sideways off the ropes and sprawling on her stomach--she’s a pathetic sight trying to push herself up, but it’s not happening, Shattering KO4 Krista Allen.

After: Knock on Debbe’s always been the inconsistency, but she’s rarely looked as old and ineffectual as she did tonight. Krista getting every last detail right--tapping the older gal’s body, being aggressive, but not reckless--Allen always stepping out before overstaying her welcome with those Gatling gun combos. Dunning a ramshackle mess, beaten unrecognizable by the non-stop torrent of Krista Allen punching--it’s a brilliant, breakthrough performance that leaves a proud veteran in tatters, Allen strutting once she calms down, hauling a semi-conscious Debbe D her feet and subjecting her to an ignominious walk of shame. Allen punching her lips and waving all sultry--it’s the finest performance of her career.
