BEFORE:
"Obviously, not the easiest assignment I could get for my FCBA debut," says Alessia with a smile. "But, I'm up for it and up TO it."
"Everybody's got to start somewhere," says Billie with a nod. "Alessia's going to start here. And, end up flat on her back."
ROUND ONE:
O'Dell: "Back at ringside and that's 'Enter Sandman' you hear behind us, but that's not Metallica's version, it's the cover by the lovely Canadian singer/songwriter headed to the ring right now, Alessia Cara!"
McCarthy: "NO FCBA wins. Two opponents for the Dancing Hookers and NO FCBA wins!"
Cassie: "I'd point out that this is Cara's FCBA debut, but then you'd tell us how YOU had FCBA wins BEFORE your first FCBA fight!"
McCarthy: "Well, I DID and you can look it up!"
O'Dell (sighing): "Cara into the ring and helped off with the robe and the crowd popping for the brunette in that black bikini she's wearing. And, that's 'You Should See Me In A Crown' booming through the arena, and here comes the singer of that tune, 'Buxom' Billie Eilish!"
Tess: "Eilish coming off a HUGE pay-per-view win against Dove Cameron, and she's back to JMD tonight..."
O'Dell: "Billie wasting no time getting into the ring and being helped off with the robe by Jewel and Neve. And, the crowd appreciating Ms. Eilish in that emerald number she likes. Ladies about ready. Time for some picks. Tess likes Billie. Mac?"
McCarthy: "NO FCBA wins! Eilish!"
O'Dell: "Cassie?"
Cassie: "I agree with Tess!"
O'Dell: "Unanimous again. Let's see if the ladies are right. Brunettes getting physical right away here, getting together in the center of the ring and starting to bang. Both girls landing some hard shot at the moment, head, body, and, of course rack, and, while Billie's a girl who's made a rep for being physical, Alessia's not backing down."
Cassie: "Cara landing some good shot and showing she can TAKE some, too."
O'Dell: "Definitely is. Lots of body work going on right now, as both fighters are betting they'll win an attrition war. Alessia the heavier of the two at the weight in, carrying full bantam weight, and she's trying to get as much of it as possible behind those punches at the moment."
McCarthy: "We've seen more power punches in this round than we see in some entire fights."
O'Dell: "And, we've got just fifteen seconds to go in the opening stanza. Action has been hot and heavy since the beginning and it's not slowing down. SHARP exchange there with both fighters landing a good right hand, and there's the bell. Very close, but Cara takes it."
Tess: "And grabs the 10-9 lead."
ROUND TWO:
O'Dell: "Second underway and the ladies right back at it. They aren't exactly in the phone booth and both are moving some, but there's plenty of close work going on. There's a SOLID right hand from Billie and CARA ROCKS HER WITH A LEFT HOOK! Oh, what a shot!"
Tess: "Eilish is in trouble!"
O'Dell: "And Cara is all in! She's winging away with both hands and DOWN GOES BILLIE! A right hook dumps Eilish to her back and this place is going nuts! Cara thrusting her arms above her head and moving to a neutral corner. Count at three. Four. Five. Eilish sits up at six. Seven. Eight. Billie to her feet at nine..."
McCarthy: "Barely made it!"
O'Dell: "Referee going to give the younger woman the mandatory and wave on Alessia! Cara just letting the hands go here, driving Billie into the ropes and going RACK in a big way! Ref looking in closely. Eilish hanging on in a tight guard...and there's the bell! Billie survives it. But Cara takes it 10-8."
Cassie: "And leads 20-17 after two."
ROUND THREE:
O'Dell: "Cara looking to finish now. She's walking a still-buzzed Billie down, letting her have it to both head and body. Alessia has to be turning heads in a big way here, taking the fight to a girl who just won a HUGE flyweight bout on the last pay-per-view against former champ Dove Cameron..."
McCarthy: "Typical of Weirdo's poor management. Kid wasn't ready for this. Came in coasting off a big, lucky win!"
O'Dell: "Eilish willing to trade space for time right now, looking to get those sturdy legs back under her. Cara pouring on the fire, trying to finish off the American. Billie jabbing back in spots, but mostly taking a thumping right now. GOOD right from Alessia there..."
Cassie: "Eilish's legs seem to be firming up some..."
O'Dell: "Yes, they do, and she's able to get some offense going now, though Cara's still getting the better of things. Final ten seconds ticking off the clock. SHARP exchange there and both fighters landed a power punch. There's the bell. Not close. Cara takes her third in a row."
Tess: "And pulls into a 30-26 lead after three."
ROUND FOUR:
O'Dell: "Ladies back on the terms we saw in the first now. Billie's shaken the worst of the damage and she's back in Cara's face. Alessia willing to stand toe-to-toe with the younger woman, bang away at her. And, Eilish giving as good as she gets here, as the ladies go body, head, body, rack..."
Tess: "A TON of punishment already dished out in this one."
O'Dell: "No question about it, and a ton more being handed out right now. Neither of these fighters willing to give an inch here, as bodies and racks are tenderized while the head is being far from ignored. GOOD right from Billie there, and that backed Alessia up a step."
Cassie: "Might be the first backward step Alessia's taken in the fight."
O'Dell: "Might be. No doubt the Canadian beauty's been plenty impressive in this one so far. We're down to just fifteen seconds in this stanza. It's been a close one. Another sharp exchange with both fighters going rack and there's the bell. Close. But, Eilish is on the board."
McCarthy: "And still down three, 39-36."
ROUND FIVE:
O'Dell: "Nobody looking to change terms as we start the fifth. Ladies right back at it at close range. Again, not exactly phone booth stuff, because we're seeing lateral movement, but both fighters are clearly all in on this attrition war, and both are determined to win it."
McCarthy: "Which shows how dumb Weirdo's fighter IS, because she's already losing it."
O'Dell: "Ladies digging some serious body in there right now. Both fighters starting to pink up. Good right from Cara and EILISH LANDS A RIGHT HOOK THAT HURTS ALESSIA! And the Canadian is now the one in trouble as the younger brunette goes all in right now!"
Tess: "She did VERY well to stay on her feet right there!"
O'Dell: "And Billie determined to see that she doesn't stay there much longer. Eilish banging away to head and body, driving Alessia backward, hooking jug at every opportunity here. Cara tying up. Holding on. Ref breaks them, but the final seconds tick away and there's the bell. Eilish. Wide."
Cassie: "But Alessia's still standing and still leading 48-46."
ROUND SIX:
O'Dell: "Billie on a mission as we start the second half. She's forward immediately and backing up Cara with hard right hands. Alessia giving ground, playing defense, still unsure of those legs. Billie digging body, hooking rack, trying to pin her rival to the ropes here..."
McCarthy: "Cara playing this smart. Tying up. Playing for time."
O'Dell: "Eilish WORKING some body now, hooking those ribs, WHACKING that rack and WOBBLING ALESSIA WITH A RIGHT HOOK! Cara staggered and Eilish going hup-hup to jug! Alessia crouching and BILLIE DROPS HER WITH A RIGHT UPPERCUT! Oh, what a SHOT!"
Tess: "That might do it..."
O'Dell: "Billie quickly to a neutral corner. Cara flat on her back in the middle of the ring. Count at three. Four. Five. No movement at all from Alessia. Six. Seven. This is going to be academic. Eight. Nine. TEN! It's OVER! And your winner by KO6 is 'Buxom' Billie Eilish!"
Cassie: "Got off the deck and took her out of there. Great stuff!"
AFTER:
O'Dell: "Let's go up to the ring and Tess Valmore!"
Tess: "I have our winner, Billie Eilish, and, Billie, she gave you a lot of trouble..."
Billie (nodding): "Yeah. She's got a lot of power. I knew that coming in. I wasn't underestimating that. But, she caught me a good one. I knew I'd be OK, and I was, but this girl can HIT."
Tess: "Massive win for you at fly last month, now you're back in JMD. Which direction are you going?"
Billie (smiling): "Maybe the beach. Maybe bantam. We'll just have to see what opportunities present themselves."
"Obviously, not the easiest assignment I could get for my FCBA debut," says Alessia with a smile. "But, I'm up for it and up TO it."
"Everybody's got to start somewhere," says Billie with a nod. "Alessia's going to start here. And, end up flat on her back."
