Before: “I really feel ready to take on Mandy,” says plus-size Australian model Robyn, “I have proved I can handle veteran welters like Estella Warren and Gena Lee Nolin, but Mandy’s a former Welter champion and she makes up in ring smarts what she lacks in size. This is going to be a real test, but I am confident I can punch my way to winning. I have had a lot of success with a steady attack and I think that will win this fight for me, too.”
Mandy Moore has been eyeing the bigger Robyn and says readily: “She’s definitely got a size and reach advantage. But there is more to boing than just being the bigger fighter. She’s right to say I’ve got ‘ring smarts’. I like to think I do and I came by them the hard way. Robyn has a lot of raw talent, she wouldn’t be 9-1 if she didn’t, but I think I have what it takes to beat her. I hope you will pay attention, Robyn, this can be a very educational fight for you.”
“I imagine it could be, but I would prefer to be the one doing the teaching,” Robyn says. “Even a veteran can still learn some new lessons.”

After: “I knew she would be tough,” a weary, but triumphant Mandy Moore tells the press in the post-fight, “but she took so much of my best punching that I was getting worried. Luckily, she is one of those fighters who just likes to keep coming at you and I finally was able to wear her down. Oh, there’s no doubt of her punching power. I am going to aching for days. She’s got a lot of talent and our division needs fighters like Robyn Lawley. If she learns from this fight we other welters better look out—she could be big trouble for us.”
“It was very disappointing,” Robyn Lawley tells the press when she’s recovered from the effects of the knockout. “Mandy just didn’t look that tough and I was sure I could beat her down, but she was just so darn hard to corner—and she could hit harder than I was expecting. If that’s what she meant by ‘educating’ me—I have learned a thing or two. I don’t know if I would change my basic approach—I am who I am as a fighter. I go for my girl and that’s what I am most comfortable doing, I am not sure if I really want to change that. It might just create more problems than it solves.”
Rousing welterweight battle should give heart to fans of the division. Mandy Moore was able to take Robyn Lawley down, but Robyn showed she’s got plenty to offer in the ring. Maybe all she needs is more experience and her potential will lead her up the welter ladder. Meanwhile, Mandy Moore showed she’s still a factor in this division and maybe this is the start of a fresh title run.
