BEFORE:
The Victoria Secret tournament continues in the Cotai Arena sees Karlie Kloss fight her stablemate Gigi Hadid for a chance at the semi final.
Karlie is 25 years old, stands at 6'0 and holds a record of 11 wins, all by knockout and only 3 defeats, she was the first New Blood welterweight tournament winner.
Gigi is 22 years old, stands at 5'11 and holds a record of 6 wins, all by knockout and 7 defeats.
These two have fought before; in the actual New Blood Welterweight tournament final a year ago that Karlie won with a 6th round knockout.
Time seems to have healed some wounds from that time as the girls smirk at each other when they meet at the press event, happy to take a photo with their arms around the others waist and not around their necks in a headlock.
They head to their tables with Fighting Academy management sitting with them, maybe in case they decide to throw the progress in renewing their friendship out the window.
Karlie is the first to speak, telling the press "what a difference a year makes, me and Gigi fell out over the New Blood tournament, we knew winning it could be a ticket to getting the picks of our stables, maybe if we knew we'd end up at the same stable that wouldn't have happened"
Adding "but we are both competitive and I aim to prove tournaments are my thing by continuing my one hundred percent record in tournament fights by beating Gigi, she will be hard to beat but I have done it before and nothing has changed"
Gigi looks to take exception to the nothings has changed bit, replying "to Gigi she may think I haven't changed, but I have grew up in the ring and outside it to be stronger then I ever have been"
Looking at Karlie as she continues with "when I fought you last year; I made one mistake and you just pulled it out, next time though I am taking your head for my trophy cabinet and once I win this tournament, I want the respect I deserve from the pundits, other managers and other fighters"
The girls nod at each other as they stand up, Gigi looking like she wants to say more, maybe holding back her true feelings on the situation, but it's too late now as they leave the stage.
Fighting time, Karlie is out first; she has Sarah Michelle Gellar with her tonight, a warm smile on her cherry red lipstick painted lips, waving to the fans as she struts to the ring. She is wearing a Victoria Secret white bra and knickers, white gloves and her blonde hair is up in a ponytail. Climbing into the ring, she jogs around the inside of the ring, waving to the fans as she looks to get the fans on side, before beginning to warm up in her corner.
Now out comes Gigi with Kelly Hu in her corner, she looks up for this as she shouts "let's do this!" To the crowd, strutting down to the ring as the fans chant both girls names. Gigi is wearing a turquoise bra and knickers from the Victoria Secret line, to go with her emerald green gloves and her own blonde hair is braided.
Stepping into the ring, she blows kisses to the fans as she heads to her corner, before starting to warm up with stretches. The girls are brought to the ring centre by the referee, a scowl is on both fighters faces as they look over each other, maybe some feelings of hate still linger over the last time they fought.
Asked to touch gloves, they bump their gloves harder then some expected before they head back to their corners, the referee signalling for the bell to begin 10 rounds of welterweight action.

Karlie catches Gigi with a right to the top of her head, it opens some space up between them, allowing the bigger girl to snap three punches through the guard of Hadid to press her backwards. Gigi is stuck on the back foot, forced to cover up as Karlie hammers away at her with straight punches, Kloss looking to open her up as she goes on the front foot. A left finds it's way around the guard of Gigi to knock her head sideways, allowing Karlie a gap to slam two more straight punches into the face of the younger fighter. But Gigi manages to move away from the ropes as Karlie tries to sting her face with a straight, finding space to reset as Karlie tries to keep the pressure on. Gigi slips under a left hook to slam a left of her own to the ribs of her opponent, starting her attack on the body of Karlie, who grunts each time she gets hit. Karlie pushing Gigi back to open up space, the girls trading single punches as the round heads to it's end, with Kloss landing the better punches due to her reach advantage.

But she leaves herself open to an overhand left and an uppercut that puts Karlie onto her backside! Gigi raising her arms in the air as she stares down at Kloss. The referee nudging Gigi away, maybe letting her temper get the better of her as Karlie shakes her head to try clearing it, happy to get a little extra time to recover due to Gigi not heading to a corner right away, she beats the count at 8. After being checked on, Karlie is allowed to continue, Gigi's eyes lighting up as she comes forwards, taking several punches to her gloves as she looks for a chance to end this. She gets too keen though as she tries swinging a wide right, missing and eating a straight onto her nose to bring some tears to her eyes. Karlie fighting off the back foot, trying to keep Gigi off her as the younger fighter is trying to charge forwards, Kelly having to shout at Gigi to be more patient.

Gigi finishing the round strongly by hammering a defending Karlie onto the ropes, most of her punches hitting arm or glove but the ones that hit slam into the side of the body of Karlie.

As Gigi sits on her stool, she has visions of finishing Karlie off and getting the chip off her shoulder, Kelly telling her "keep focused,
you know Karlie will be looking for revenge" Karlie meanwhile looks at the canvas, Sarah telling her as she washes her down "a small set back but you know that Gigi has her flaws, exploit them babe"
