The Man In The Hat sits, as usual, at the center of the dais. To his left are Anna Torv, Pink, Katy Perry, Mariska Hargitay, Jewel, and Jane Levy. To his right sit Kristen Stewart, Serinda Swan, Daniela Ruah, Britney Spears, Neve Campbell, and Avril Lavigne.

Man In The Hat: "All right, as usual, before we get to questions, there are some people I want to thank. Let's start with Beevers Babes. They've been here before, of course, and we're always thankful to have 'em back. Lots of talented girls there, and we appreciate 'em comin' ta Philly. The indie fighters who joined us deserve a 'thanks' as well. Indie girls have always been and always will be a big part of what we do. Of course, we want to thank our neighbors at Bazz, who always provide top-notch opposition for these cards, and, as always, let me thank the FCBA Commission for sanctionin' these fights and makin' Asylum possible. Now. Questions. Cable Boy! Go!"

HBO Reporter: "Let's talk about a couple of your fighters who fought indie girls tonight, Pink and Katy. Obviously, you have to be pleased with what you saw from the two of them..."

Man In The Hat: "No question about it. Pinkness is a girl who's tryin' ta get into position for a possible bantam title push next year, and, to do that, you have to take care of business. Lachman can fight. She's tall. She's in shape. She's not a tomato can. She's a challenge, and Pinkness passed it. As for Katy, she's another girl who's looking like a candidate for a push, and you saw why again tonight. It wasn't just the win, it was what you saw her do in there. This isn't the old brawling Katy. That girl is gone. This is a good fighter who uses her athleticism to box. This is a girl who can hang with the good, technical girls at the top of the lightweight division. She's a girl you can push. And she just might earn one. Cable Boy II!"

Showtime Reporter: "How big a win was this for Stewart?"

Man In The Hat: "Big. Kristen's done very well for herself, as you know, but one issue she's had is dealing with older, more experienced fighters. Both girls who've beaten her since she came here have been on the scene a decade longer than she has. She needed to show that she can deal with that experience deficit and find a way to win, and she did that tonight. As you know, we're wide open at fly right now, so a win like this is important. Well, look, it's BLONDE! Magazine!"

BLONDE! Magazine Reporter: "Anna Torv had a tough assignment tonight, coming off the title shot loss to have to deal with Rowland..."

Man In The Hat: "Rowland is a tough assignment no matter when you have to deal with her, and, yeah, coming off an overtime loss to the lightweight champ ain't exactly the best time to draw it. But, one thing you'll notice about Old Wiz. When he GIVES you a tough assignment, it means he thinks you can HANDLE it. Anna's had more tough assignments than anybody on our active roster. I never shy away from givin' her another one. Tess, dear, go ahead..."

Tess: "You talked a little about pushes. One girl you have who's getting a push is Serinda Swan, and she certainly didn't do anything to hurt that tonight..."

Man In The Hat: "When we brought Swanny in here, we knew she was as good physically as any light in the world except Biel. All she needed was time and work for it all to come together. Well, it has. There's not a lightweight in the world I wouldn't put Swanny up against now. She's earned a push. She's GETTIN' a push, and, maybe sometime next year it'll pay off. Smackeroo! Take us to dinner!"

Reporter: "We've talked before about Daniela and Elevating...about her breaking through and winning a big fight. Tonight has to qualify, doesn't it?"

Man In The Hat(smiling): "Oh, it most certainly DOES. Alana de la Garza is an excellent fighter who's beaten some of the top lights in the FCBA. When you beat de la Garza, you've beaten a top-flight lightweight, and that's just what Dani did tonight. I'm very pleased with her work and with the overall results tonight, obviously. These six ladies have shown us a lot of things, given us a lot of information we can use in our evaluations and preparations for next year. Now. Dinner time. Let's eat. Tess! Smackey! Limo!"
