Both fighters were interviewed at their gyms, with Jennifer looking excited "I have to say I am loving coaching, but to get back in the ring to fight is still where I feel I do my best work"
Changing the subject to her opponent, Jennifer tells the journalists "Michelle is a Texas girl like me, so I know she is going to be tough because let's be frank; us Texas girls are the toughest around, so I know this won't be easy but I on ending the fight on top"
Michelle meanwhile looks all business as she sits down to chat to the press, she tells them "I have a few things to sort out in that ring after my last fight, Elizabeth Olsen showed me how hard I have to work from now till I can get back into the title picture"
On her opponent, she adds "Jennifer has had a good career, I mean she has won titles in the FCBA, but I know if I had the push she had, I'd have dominated the league, where she will be best known for jug boxing then real fighting" a statement sure to fire a few fighters up.
Fight night; out comes Jennifer with Jeri Ryan as her coach, she is wearing a purple sports bra, matching trunks, shoes and gloves, her hair is in a ponytail.

Who comes out quickly enough, Michelle jogging down the ramp to the ring with her eyes locked on the ring and specifically Jennifer.
Michelle's attire is all black tonight, sports bra, tight trunks, shoes and gloves, with her hair braided for the fight to make her look imposing.
Climbing into the ring; Michelle doesn't give the crowd much attention, focused on warming up and getting this show on the road.
Coming together at the ring centre; Jennifer looks at the scowling Michelle with a smile, showing that she isn't afraid of her.
Both asked to touch gloves from the referee, they respectfully do as told and jog to their corners, both ready to start 10 rounds of bantamweight action.

Round 1:
Out come the fighters, neither exactly moving around quickly early on, more focused on fighting at the ring centre as they trade jabs and straights to test each other out.
Neither fighter pushes hard early on; they look to measure each other up as they hit the others guard, each keeping their fists up high to try and not make any mistakes early on.
Till Michelle parries a straight and lands a right under the left jug of Jennifer, who looks a little shocked that Michelle would go for a JMD style attack as a left bangs across the jugs of Hewitt.
Who ends up standing and trading stiff shots in close, heads rubbing together as they work away at the others bodies, it is scruffy fighting as both hit the others arms as much as bodies.
Till Michelle nudges Jennifer back and snaps an uppercut that knocks the head of her opponent back, allowing Michelle to finally open up as she drives Jen back onto the ropes.
Groans escaping Jennifer's lips as Michelle hammers the sides of her body, with Jennifer fighting back with punches up top, leading to a fiery exchange between the two.

This time Michelle looks to stalk Jennifer back around the ring; with Jennifer moving her head more to dodge Michelle's head hunting punches.
As Michelle goes to land a right cross; Jennifer slips under it and comes up with a right of her own across her cheek to turn her head.
That gives Jennifer an opening to push Michelle back towards the ropes with punches digging into the face of the Latin fighter.
Michelle having to cover up and work off the back foot to keep Jennifer back, landing several counter punches to the head of Hewitt to keep some distance between them.
Circling each other; they trade at midrange as they start throwing two or three punches at a time now, letting their hands go more as they try to take control of the fight.
Again though it's Jennifer that slips under a straight from Michelle and bangs in two shots at the body of Rodriguez to force her back behind her guard.
Jennifer finishing the round strongly as she keeps on the front foot, her fists smacking into the gloves and forearms of Michelle as she is forced around the ring, with several punches smacking Michelle to her nose and lips.
As they head back to their corners at the bell; Jennifer looks more relaxed as she chats with Jeri, who wipes her down and tells her "keep this up babe, you have her worked out"
Round 3:
Meeting again at the ring centre; Michelle looking to pushing forwards to force Jennifer back, with Jennifer needing to dance back as two cross punches come towards her head.
With Jennifer dipping under a jab to slam a right under the ribs of Michelle to make her cry out and moving back with her guard up.
Jennifer taking control of the action as she keeps coming forwards, drill punches between the mitts of her opponent to knock her head back, before paying her back for the earlier JMD attack by smacking Michelle across her jugs to make her hiss out.
Michelle fires back with a straight to the top of Jennifer's head, with both trading in tight as they work at the others body.
Both groans out as they work away, Jennifer's head nearly bumps the chin of Michelle as she forces her back a step, with Michelle forced to retreat back as Jennifer looks to keep on top of her.
But as Hewitt tries to push forwards; Rodriguez catches her with a left cross that turns the head of the Chimera fighter, with Michelle knocking Jennifer back with two more punches to her face to back Jennifer up.
The last few moments of the round seeing both women go toe to toe as each looks to land a punch to turn the tide of the fight for themselves.
The bell rings to end the round; Jennifer continuing to look happy as Michelle looks a little confused, normally she bullies opponents back around the ring, instead she is finding herself being pushed around.
Jeri wiping down Jennifer; telling her "you've got her lost in her own head, keep bullying her back and win this" as both smile at each other.
Round 4:
Jennifer looks to keep the pressure on Michelle, moving her head to dodge the first few punches of the round from her opponent, Jennifer slips in to land a left to the body of Michelle and a right across her face.
Rodriguez forced to retreat back and use her jab defensively to try to keep Hewitt back, the Latin fighter taking several punches to her abs as Jennifer keeps coming forwards.
Though when Jennifer swings a right hook up top; Michelle leans out the way and lands a right of her own across the nose of Jennifer to make her cry out.
Michelle follows up with an uppercut drive that sees Jennifer's head get knocked back and suddenly the momentum has turned in a big way, with Michelle now knocking the head back of her opponent.
Jennifer forced to cover up as she finds herself being forced back around the ring; she tries to fight back but gets caught with a right onto her nose that leaves her open to a follow up left hook that turns her head.
Now Jennifer finds herself struck on the ropes as Michelle powers on; body shots make Jen groans out and she has to try to fight back, leading to a furious exchange.
The round comes to a close with Michelle looking content again, while Jennifer scowls at her from behind, pushing herself off the ropes and heads to her corner.
This time the Chimera corner work hard to fix up Jennifer, who shakes her head to clear cobwebs from it, while Jeri tells her to fight smarter, knowing the fight is back to tight on the scorecards.
While Michelle stares across the ring almost unblinkingly at Jen, her coach telling her "don't get too focused on her, just keep hurting her and finish this fight"
Round 5:
Back out come the fighters; Michelle now turning the heat up on Jennifer, using her reach to land several punches through the gloves of her smaller opponent to her head.

After:
Another big knockout for Michelle, who jogs to her corner and mounts the bottom ropes as she flexes her arms and shouts "the bytch is back" jumping down off the ropes and glaring at Jennifer.
Who after the doctor wakes up Jennifer, she wobbles and he waves for a stretcher to get her out the ring and up to the back.
Jeri looks upset as she looks down at her, turning to scowl at Michelle; who just cockily winks at her as she doesn't care one bit about Jennifer.
As soon as Jennifer is taking out the ring; Michelle jogs to the ring centre and tells the referee to raise her arm in the air, which he does to a loud cheer from Rodriguez fans.
Michelle shouting "I am going to run through all these bytches" finding her inner bytch again it seems as she moves to talk to her coach.
Soon she leaves the ring, tossing her gloves over her shoulders as she struts up the ramp, a cocky smile on her face as she goes as she has seemingly made a declaration of war on the rest of the division it seems now.
