Minka Kelly v Margot Robbie
(results by Lookout, words by Sceej)
On paper, a mismatch! Margot Robbie looking to try to even get in position to crack the bantamweight top 20 versus Minka Kelly, a Hall of Famer still young enough at 42 to be considered in or close to her prime! Kelly has OWNED Sceej boxing with KO & wins over Munn and McCarthy. Kelly with a career record of 70-30 - well beyond HOF minimum and probably in discussion for best winning percentage of all time!
In most expert’s view, Kelly has faster hands, is a far better defensive fighter, and has been in with far better competition; in fact, only area where Margot MIGHT be her equal is hitting power. The brunette is a prohibitive favorite!
All of that said, these two have fought before and Margot stunned Minka with a KO7 back in 2019!
Fight Night: Margot to ring first accompanied by Scrubby McGee and Jenny McCarthy, followed by Minka, seconded by Lioness trainers - Claudia Schiffer and Eva Mendes. Cold glares from both fighters during ring instructions.
Fight itself is a vicious back and forth affair. Movement was expected but fighters spend round after round, forehead on forehead in center ring, trading vicious body licks, little hooks to the head and occasional sneak uppercut. Margot takes the first, Minka storming back to take the second. Back and forth, tough grinding rounds. By 5th round, it’s evident to most ringsiders that war of attrition is beginning to go the veteran’s way. Minka with heartless body punching leaves the blonde gasping and dispirited at the bell. Minka squaring up and smirking, “See you in sixty seconds, Blondie!”.
In corner, Scrubby McGee icing Robbie’s neck: Jenny Mac with a hundred useless suggestions. Sceej corner has to physically help Margot of the stool and out to face the brunette butcher. Hard left - right combination to the body draws a grunt from the blonde. Minka pops hips right and doubles the hook behind the elbow to the liver and blonde drops to her knees, hugging body and sobbing.
Minka throws hands in air and marches around ring as ref picks up the count. Apoplectic Jenny Mac in corner, screeching “Don’t you punk … don’t you dare punk!!!”. Robbie tentatively on one knee at count of seven. Jenny offering gentle encouragement, “GET UP, YOU BUM”.
Margot barely beats the count, facing Kelly on unsteady legs. Minka at her hard from corner. Blonde gambles, throws big sash weight overhand right … and kisses chin perfectly! Minka Kelly takes one disorganized half step to her right and keels over on her side. Referee guides a spent Margot Robbie to corner and picks up the count. At six, dazed Minka Kelly trying to push herself up but eyes are unfocused and legs are not there. Winner in “Hail Mary” fashion by knockout in the 6th round - Margot “Harley Quinn” Robbie!
