Intro:
The opening bout of tonights special heroines card sees Krysten Ritter look to give Wallis Day a hard time on the latter's debut, the fight taking place in the United Center in Chicago.

Krysten is 36 years old, she stands 5'9 and holds a record of 1 win, that was by knockout and 5 defeats.

Wallis is 24 years old; she stands 5'8 ½, this is the debut of the Londoner, whose best known for her time as Nyssa-Vex on the TV show Krypton.

The fighters were asked for a word in their training camps by FCBA Network interviewer Lucy Liu, with Krysten finishing up battering a punchbag.

Lucy asks about her upset win over Gemma, whether she thinks it will be the beginning of her career now, Krysten laughs as she replies "do you see the offers flying in, when nobody notices you and you suddenly knock out one of the elite, well all those who thought I was an easy payday run and hide"

Asked about Wallis; she quickly answers "she at least has guts, thanks to my TV show Jessica Jones, I'm now someone who knows how to kick ass in that ring, gone are the days I was a soft touch, now I can knockout the best, that's unlucky for Wallis though as I ain't taking it easier on her"

Krysten adds "this fight is purely about me keeping my name out there, maybe one of the supposed elite will take a crack at me after I am done, I don't bank on it though"

While Wallis finishes up sparring with a local fighter as she trains in the World famous Gotham gym, getting a nod from her coach on a good job before she heads out the ring to talk to Lucy.

The well spoken Brit is asked what got her into celebrity boxing, she answers "well I've always been an athlete, I don't know if you know my life story, but I was so close to going to the Olympics in London, swimming was my sport and I would have been in the team, I decided that acting was where my life was meant to be and to fill that void I have been doing martial arts training, boxing just seemed the right thing to do"

When asked about Krysten, she replies "she is tough; I saw her victory over Gemma Atherton, I know she knows martial arts too from her show, so it isn't like she is a fake right? I feel I am physically better then her though, I am younger and with all my training, it gives me the advantage"

The final question is on goals, she answers "it might seem daft to some but I want to be in next years New Blood tournament, hopefully this fight showcases what I can do and the training you get for those fights would be awesome, then of course the lightweight title would be nice" grinning as she finishes and shakes Lucy's hand.

Fight night; Krysten heads out down the aisle wearing a black sports bra, matching trunks, shoes and gloves, with her brunette hair in a ponytail.

She looks up for this as she jogs down to the ring punching the air to warm up, she climbs into the ring soon enough and heads to her corner quickly to warm up properly, while discussing tactics.

After:
If this is an audition for the next New Blood tournaments, well Wallis may have earned her way into them with this hard fought win.

Wallis stands with hands on her hips and yells at Krysten "you are right that I'm out of your league, I am going to be a champion and you can continue being a bottom feeder bytch!"

Krysten scowls at her but can't deny that she got beaten by the better woman in the end, watching Wallis head back to her corner with arms in the air makes her say "what a c***" to her coach.

Who help her up after she is cleaned up; she leaves the ring with their help as Ritter looks a little shaky still, her coach trying to keep her spirits up by telling her that she was so close, but she has her head down as she goes.

While in the ring; Wallis bows to each side of the ring, getting a pat on her head from her coach as Wallis is told how good a job she did.
