Queen of the Ice Hotel: Adriana Lima vs Gal Gadot

Before: BBU lightweight champ Gal sanguine about accusations of queue jumping: "Nobody knows the league they're in until they fight - it's that simple. I might put Adriana on her back in the first round - I definitely punch hard enough to make that happen - who's league would I be in then? To me - that's a stupid question - one I plan to answer with my fists." Lima explains her decision-making thus: "The Ice Hotel is about spectacle. Those who visit the hotel want a moment to remember. Seeing both the BBU and FCBA champions in the ring? That's exactly the woman I need to make my statement at the hotel."

Adriana in her signature grey chinchilla bikini and gloves. Gal in black X-shaped fur monokini with cavernous scoop front; boxing moccasins; black gloves. Ice Hotel in all its glory ring in the main ballroom with ice chandeliers and fixtures all around.

R1: Gal feints right and LIGHTS ADRIANA UP! A step-in lead left uppercut, SLAMMING onto Lima’s chin, splitting her hastily raised mitts. Million-dollar legs soak it up, Adriana keeps her feet, but she’s badly hurt to start the fight. Gal circling, slashing: a quick, sidearm lick against the abdomen, a slicing left across the face knocks the taste out of Lima’s mouth. Gadot stepping around her jab—punching Adriana in her guard to keep those hands up, then stepping in with vicious slinging sidearm rights or that lethal lead left uppercut. Lima brave when hurt, no surprise there. Blocks shots, answers back with blunt fury—shortening up her stroke and slugging in combination to reject Gadot’s finishing attempts in middle minute. Gal circling outside in the final seconds, exploring Adriana’s breasts with hard jabs and sudden jump-in hooks. Gadot piles in hooking after the bell, pushing Lima off at the stagger in a dominant opener.

R2: Adriana jabbing right handed, discouraging Gal from leading with power, challenger dancing away, taking sharp punches on her left shoulder. Lima still a little shaky, Gadot circles outside, puts her jab to work, jumping in occasionally to wallop those jugs with a nasty hook. Adriana dukes at her eyebrows, walking Gal down, she’ll give up her breasts to coax the challenger forward, then answer with furious chugging action toe-to-toe. Gadot banged up to her ribs and repeatedly rejected—by the final minute she’s been hunted down by hard-hearted Adriana, who squares away, lets hands go with thumping stroke, hooking body and head, slamming away righty to chin, shoulder-shoving wilting Gal back against the ropes.

R3: GAL LIGHTS ADRIANA UP! Lima aggressively forward, eats another lead left uppercut FLUSH on the chin, put wobbly butt AGAIN, stunned behind her mitts as million-dollar legs hold her up. Gadot snarling as she’s over to offence: a ripping sidearm right across taut model gut; a slicing hook to the cheek as Lima stoops forward. Gal never staying in one spot long—stepping around Adriana, slashing at her, then moving to keep her turning. Lima trying to encroach behind a high guard, but it’s costing her, Gadot walking her in, stroking her midsection and jaw with speedy swiping punches—crowd reacting with oohs and aahs as Gal tears at Adriana with clean connects. Gadot loving it to Lima’s breasts with step-in hooks, Queen getting busted hard to rack and shoved off, blinking back tears as Gal regains initiative in the third.


R4: Gal feints and ADRIANA EATS THAT LEFT UPPERCUT! Lima keeps underestimating Gadot’s first-step quickness, challenger keeps freezing champ with the decoy dip, then ripping into chin with slashing brutality. Adriana stomping backwards on her heels, desperately hurt again as Gal’s lips curl into malevolent smile. Gadot goes after Lima’s breasts with sudden, ripping lead hooks, piling on to follow through and pushing her back: Queen’s ramshackle legs can’t hold canvas as she staggers into ropes. Gal pursues, squares away to finish and ADRIANA WON’T HAVE IT! Lima digging in, swishing away side to side, teeth bared—badly hurt, champ simply puts her heart on her sleeve and fights her way out of trouble. Gadot stepping away, mauled in the exchange—eyes flashing angrily as once again she can’t finish what she started. Adriana recovering, coming forward and cutting off the ring, pounding Gal’s flanks, works her way to opposite ropes and MUG THOSE JUGS! Lima finishing up strong, standing up in the stirrups to hoist rising lefts and rights into Gadot’s rack, prompting the first clinches of the fight as challenger is punished on the apron.

R5: Adriana making inroads, finally jabbing with a straighter, firmer stick, scaring her with some near-miss right crosses and hounding her to the ropes for the first time since the second. Lima finally able to fight forehead to forehead with Gadot’s back to the ropes, really banging out the minutes, dukes at her chin as she stays compact, licks hard to challenger’s midsection with either hand. Adriana’s arms shivering on contact, like beating a rock with a two-by-four. Gal starts cramping up, grunting, drawing Lima into breathless clinches to run the clock. Near the end we see Adriana billygoating, dropping her forehead onto Gal’s chest to stymie her increasingly desperate escape attempts, bullying her girl in a way that would be drawing warnings at the least outside the relaxed atmosphere of the Ice Hotel.

R6: Gal showing some moxie, fighting toe-to-toe, rubbing tousles with Adriana, it’s cudgeling turn-taking as girls lean in head-and-guards with each other. Lima nice and compact, blocking shots, then answering swift and hard: she’s getting a nice little nibbling left uppercut under Gadot’s chin. Almost at the minute mark, Adriana rides out a squall of lefts and rights on her shoulders—answers back another short left uppie on the chin, then doubles down HARD to Gal’s tender liver area and GADOT GOES DOWN! Challenger stepping back with an agonized expression, folding up and sinking to her knees. Gadot chest heaving, takes a rattled 8, ON COMES LIMA! Sailing into midsection with swinging right hand, Gal doubles up and gives away her back. Adriana releasing the hounds, bashing wallop smashes across shiny back, complimented by reefing hooks up underneath as the Queen torques on her hips to get’em in snug. Gadot falling apart, Lima bunching her up with glorious shoveling lefts and rights—AND SHE’S QUITTING! Gal sobbing “STOP! STOP!” no longer punching back—verbal submission brings the ref hurtling in, shunting Adriana aside to bundle her clear. Adriana the winner and STILL Queen of the Ice Hotel by TKO 6!

After: Poor Gal shivering, teeth chattering as she blubbers in dread at the ropes. Adriana just delighted, forcing Gadot to her knees, gets both hands in her hair and holding then clenched as attendants get her all cinched in, BBU lightweight champ quite a prize for fans of saddle action. Lima helped into the mount position, leaning backwards with her fur-covered backside resting in the small of Gal's back, feet tucked next to her ears. Gadot snorting with effort, leaning forward into her shoulder straps as fresh tears erupt. Mission accomplished: Lima clicks her tongue, flicks her feet into her ears to coax Gal into a trot. Adriana beaming with pleasure, feeling the raw power of this mount between her legs.
Gal able to make it out of the Hotel and to the lip of Adriana’s “special ramp” before she starts to fall apart. Gasping for breath, Gadot stops, knees knocking. Finally, Gal's majestic legs give way - spilling her to the pavement as Adriana swings those long legs into the clear. Gadot on her side, still clutching her shoulder straps, sobbing and shuddering, Lima overlooking her new conquest. When she’s ready, she makes a leg and Gal makes the same tumble down the ramp that Candice Swanepoel, Rachel Nichols and Iggy Azalea made.
