Before: Fought at the L.A. Playboy mansion, where it is thought a little home cooking might revive D'errico's once promising fistic career. Jewel coming off the biggest win of HER career takes what is essentially an away game to fight Donna on her turf in front of an exclusive invite only crowd D'errico with a light pink Playboy t-shirt, tied in the middle to bare her midriff, black spandex shorts and white sneakers - Jewel countering with a blue t-shirt, but over the bunny insignia, a circle with a line through it (NO BUNNIES), black shorts, white shoes. How Hefner gets his way on the details remains a mystery to all mere mortals.

During R1: Donna fighting in front of friends and former competitors, clearly looking for a good showing, and she disdains her traditional cautious approach to go toe to toe with Jewel early. Donna letting her hands go inside, out punches the singer for most of the round as the girls rotate around the ring, rubbing heads and banging body shots on the inside.

R2: Jewel now edges Donna in another mouth-on-shoulder round in which both women concentrate on covering up their tummies, and attacking with short one-twos inside. Kilcher's weight advantage beginning to pay off as she leans on Donna, wrestling with playmate for position - throwing punches as if they are too expensive to waste.

R3: Donna's pride getting the better of her as the grinding trench warfare continues, and Jewel banks another close, hard fought round. Kilcher had expected to have some trouble with Donna's decent movement, but so far, the plucky playmate has laid in, fought Jewel's fight, and gone punch for punch with the heavier girl. Jewel leaning her torso back to make room for the uppercut to the breasts, hurts Donna enough to make her stop punching on several occasions.

R4: D'errico refuses to submit. Initiating the inside action once again, the round heats up as both woman pound away to the body, each delivering the odd short club to the jaw as space permits. In the final minute, Jewel starts to wince, looking to tie Donna up as the Playmate steps up the attack. Fielding punches to her waist, Jewel stepping back in retreat, and Kilcher takes a knee, gasping and looking forlorn. Donna prancing away with a happy look, takes a 10-8 round, and the lead.

R5: Donna stays on the soft body of Jewel, pushing her way inside, but also stepping back to get room on a pounding left hook to the liver. Jewel hunched over in front of Donna, D'errico standing straight, swipes the hook at the ear, then the ribs in behind Jewel's elbow, and the combination pays off midway through the round as Jewel's knees buckle. Jewel fighting hurt, gets back into the round late with some smacking hooks to Donna's gut, but D'errico's got the singer hurt.

R6: Donna fights smart - SMART this round! D'errico, seeing her opponent guarding her body, and looking a little beat up, up tempo's the fight, using her legs, making Jewel move, and lashing the left hook from outside to hurt Kilcher early in the round. Jabs to the face set up that withering left hook body shot, and Kilcher looks wobbly when D'errico steps in to a lancing straight right hand to the solar plexus. Punch spanks like a gunshot off Jewel's sternum, sending the blonde to her back with a groan. Kilcher's legs up in the air as she rolls on the canvas, then lies in a beaten heap. Jewel shakes her head in pain, signaling her surrender, and Donna records a sensation KO6!

After: Fighting with a little inspiration, against a limited opponent, Double D has her best outing since her stint as a playmate saw her beat some of the best bunnies of the 90s. Brawling early, Donna broke Jewel in the 4th, and unlike previous outings, consolidated and made the singer quit with an agonizing body shot that most frankly didn't believe Donna had in her.
