Before: Good match up between petite blonde stylists. Danes has shown pop, but this fight high contact chess match written all over it. Dunst Ingénue of the Year last year for about a minute and a half--she can’t afford to get bumped by this year’s model. White bikini for Claire, white sports bra and high cut aerobics bottoms for Kirsten.

 

During R1: Identical stances--right hands high at the eye, left hands out in front and working. Danes leading, poking, slapping and scraping her jab onto Dunst’s face and along her chin. Kirsten never rocked or hurt, but she’s standing in for the buff-job, unable to get off as Claire pre-empts her time and again. Late work in kind from Kirsten not enough to coax points out of the judges.

 

R2: Kirsten gets the jump and does the same number on Claire--pesky jabs flush on face, nimble footwork around the foe, and Dunst ups the ante with chopping right hands on the face--weight on that front foot, balanced for speed and precision rather than power. Shutout for most of the round as Dunst shines Claire’s face up like a prize penny, but down the stretch, looping lefts and rights from Claire have Dunst reeling--Danes able to load up and land from Nebraska with uncanny ease. Kirsten staggering to the ropes in real danger of going down as Danes wails away at the bell--Claire steals a clear Kirsten round with late panache.

 

R3: Brisk two way action--both girls leaning out on their front foot, letting the jabs niblle and peck, then slapping in the right hand as faces are punished, bodies left untouched. Danes dictating with her feet--she’s stepping around, causing the action, Dunst just reacting. Claire beats checks for points.

 

R4: Kirsten answers back, once again upping the ante by mixing in a serviceable straight arm hook, batting at Claire’s side as Danes covers and takes. Touches to the face continue to mount up as neither girl moves her head much, both really concentrating on offensive consistency and combination punching, but Dunst’s body punches are rhe hardest of the round.


R5: Claire won’t be beaten to the body--SHE answers back with same straight arm hook, doubling and tripling up into Kirsten’s ribs, weight still on that front foot, just using that right hand to palm at Dunst to maintain form on the left hand. Kirsten’s legs give way after a rippling pattern to her body and head breaks her down--Claire stepping with her girl, holding her to the ropes with that energetic left hand on the face. Danes shows the ability to press in the final minute--going at her girl with shivering body shots, and continuing to maul the face with peppering lefts and rights. Dunst all shiny and hurt at the bell--Claire’s dominated the first half of this fight.

 

R6: Crowd pleasing trade midring, girls just skidding fists off one another’s faces, bitb boxing sharp from outside and apparently immune to one another’s efforts. Dunst breaks the stalemate in the final minute: a spearing straight right into the crotch, a biting left hook on the mouth and Danes stumbles back starry-eyed, hurt for the first time in the fight. Kirsten getting big as she walks Danes down, clipping walking lefts and rights across the chin as Claire falters at the bell.

 

R7: Claire Danes with a demonstrative shutout, circling and dismantling her foe like a mockingbird working on a helpless duckling. PLENTY of straight right hands to the groin, sharp left hooks on the jaw leave Kirsten staring boozy-eyed as Danes continues to work crisp from outside.

 

R8: Uptempo trading continues--both little beauties in greyhound good shape to be maintaining this. Both working delicate left shoulders and slender left arms hard as hard as jabs do the heavy lifting, each just pumping away to set up hooks to the waist and slappy right hands on the face. Continuance of the “you can’t hurt me” theme as the girls are as neat and sweet on the offence as they are mindless on D. At the bell, both pretty faces are red and puffy from the constant caress of enemy leather.

 

R9: Kirsten breaks through after fencing jabs in the opening moments--she times a step in to NAIL Claire with a sweet hook on the chin, Danes crumpling and melting away in hurt as Dunst follows hard, leaving her feet to pull lefts and rights in to the wounded Claire. Danes woozy on the ropes as Dunst squares up and set down ion her punches--bashing lefts and rights to the ribs, coming off the body to clap teeth with either hand. Claire getting battered, but digging in against the ropes trades back in the final minute as the crowd roars its approval. Slim bodied blondes wailing away at the bell, each landing with everything, but unable to put the other down as the ref jumps in.

 

R10: Claire putting her weight on her back foot, closes her stance and slides away from Dunst-Kirsten reading it as a sign of capitulation, wads in and eats the fight’s first true counter punch--a right hand blast the chin as Danes ducks in and down on follow through. Kirsten rung up, helpless for a moment as Danes takes over on her--lashing wide lefts and rights overwhelming the crumbling Dunst. Kirsten beaten to the ropes, guard high--she’s turning and bobbing, but too slowly--Claire is picking apart with quick mitts between and around the gloves. Midway through, Danes jams a short right hand between the guard rocking Kirsten back into the ropes, but follow up flurry runs dry as Dunst just won’t go down. Claire backing off in the final minute, using her jab to continue to molest and occupy Kirsten’s guard as Dunst sits ropeside for a shutout. Comes back UD10 Claire Danes.

 

After: Claire bruised, but beaming--she struts the ring with hands held high as a cuffed-up Kirsten Dunst stares at the canvas, hands on hips, wondering where it all went wrong. Vintage small girl stuff--punches that looked like fight-winners swallowed all night long by both contestants, but once again, Danes with he slugging advantage puts the hurt on another flyweight foe.
