BEFORE:
"I should have beaten Winter the last time I was here," Sarah says with a shake of the head. "And, Winter is better than THIS girl. So. Do the math."
"Oh, I'm going to DO some math," says a hard-eyed Jennette. "My fist plus her face equals KO."
ROUND ONE:
O'Dell: "Back at ringside, and that's 'Set It Off' from Disney's 'Descendants' you hear, and here comes the singer of that number and a star of the CW's 'Charmed', Sarah Jeffery!"
McCarthy: "I don't know where the CW GETS these BIMBOS..."
O'Dell: "Jeffery down the aisle and into the ring where she's helped off with the robe to reveal that frilly crepe number we saw when she was here for New Year's Eve in 2017, and she's clearly been working just as hard leading up to this one as she was leading up to that one."
Cassie: "This is a girl with some talent and a rising profile. Come up big tonight, and it could be a huge step forward for her."
O'Dell: "And, that's 'Lust For Life' by Iggy Pop year hear behind us, and that can only mean that 'The Answer' Jennette McCurdy is on her way to the ring..."
McCarthy: "Where does Weirdo GET these nicknames?"
Tess: "And, as McCurdy is a flyweight and there's at least been discussion of Front Street eliminating the entire division, I suspect this is a big fight for Jennette..."
O'Dell: "McCurdy into the ring and helped off with the robe. She's wearing that black and white striped bikini we've become familiar with. And, the ladies are about ready to go. Time for some picks. Tess likes Jennette. Mac?"
McCarthy: "A Front Street flyweight can always choke, but I'm going to pick McCurdy."
O'Dell: "Cassie?"
Cassie: "I agree with Tess!"
O'Dell: "And, we're underway. And, to the surprise of no one, Sarah on her bicycle early. We saw a lot of this when she fought Winter. Jeffrey likes to move and box, and unless you can slow her down, she's going to cause you problems. And, that's exactly what she's doing right now..."
McCarthy: "Well, the problem here is TRAINING. Campbell never DID know how to handle an athletic boxer..."
Tess: "One. BRITNEY trains the flyweights. Two. Campbell knew how to handle YOU..."McCarthy: "I. Was. Robbed. Shut. Up. WAL. MART!"
O'Dell: "Drink up, boys, but don't take your eyes off the ring, because Sarah's putting on a show at the moment, moving very well, snapping out that left jab, stopping to pop, then getting right back moving. Jennette having a heck of a time tracking her rival down, Cassie..."
Cassie: "And, as you said, until she manages to do that, Jeffrey's going to cause problems."
O'Dell: "We've got ten seconds to go in a fast-paced first round. Sarah Jeffrey's been in control from the opening seconds, and she remains so right now. McCurdy working hard, but not getting much done and there's the bell. No doubt about this one. It's Sarah and wide. And, Jeffery leads 10-9."
ROUND TWO:
O'Dell: "Second begins with McCurdy making an adjustment. Jennette getting outside Sarah's right foot, slowing her circle and then cutting the ring, bringing the younger brunette to battle. Result is some sharp exchanges between the two brunettes, and neither gaining a major advantage..."
Cassie: "Definitely not. Sarah giving as good as she gets at the moment."
O'Dell: "Jeffery still wants space, but McCurdy finding ways to stop her from getting it. Instead, Jennette keeping the younger woman contained, forcing her to box with. Sarah doing that, and hanging in, but clearly would rather be fighting on different terms, Mac..."
McCarthy: "Give her credit, though. She's not getting dominated on McCurdy's terms."
O'Dell: "Certainlky is not. We're down to twenty seconds remaining in a close second round. GOOD flurry from Jennette there, and that backed Sarah up. Jeffery covering up as McCurdy follows with a sharp combination. Sarah slipping away, circling as the final seconds tick away and there's the bell. Close. McCurdy."
Tess: "And, we're even at 19."
ROUND THREE:
O'Dell: "Third begins with an adjustment from Sarah. She's switching up the footwork, moving to a wider circle to avoid McCurdy's efforts to corral her. Result is that Jeffrey is back on the move, and once again taking control of the fight. Got to like what you're seeing here, Cassie..."
Cassie: "No doubt about it. If a girl can move and box like this, she's going to be dangerous in any division, but, at flyweight, where so many of the fighters are quick and athletic..."
O'Dell: "And, Sarah's showing plenty of quickness and athleticism in this stanza. Again, Jennette working hard trying to track her down, but Jeffrey not going to be caught, at least for the moment. Instead, it's all about the jab and circle, then the quick stop and pop..."
Tess: "And, she's timing everything so well, Jenny."
O'Dell: "Absolutely is, and that's also key. She's getting off and getting GONE before Jennette can do anything about it. We've got fifteen seconds left in the third and it's been Jeffrey's round from the beginning. Nothing's going to change now. Instead, Sarah will leg it out and there's the bell. Jeffrey wide again."
McCarthy: "And, she's back in the lead, 29-28."
ROUND FOUR:
O'Dell: "Fourth underway and McCurdy after Sarah more aggressively. She's stepping to, looking to bang. Jeffrey continues to try to circle to open canvas, but Jennette cutting her off, slowing her down, working some body now. Sarah tying up, trying to force breaks, but Jennette punching free..."
Tess: "And, while Jeffrey was able to hold her own boxing with, she's not doing that now."
O'Dell: "Definitely is not. Jennette taking control as she works inside, thumping the ribs and belly, going upstairs and right back down. Sarah trying hard to get space, and she's managing to do that here and there, but, mostly, she's got McCurdy right in her grill."
McCarthy: "Kid needs to get the feet moving and get off square. She's getting lined up."
O'Dell: "She's definitely TRYING to find the space to get the feet going, but it's not happening. Jennette cutting her off beautifully, keeping her contained, and THUMPING her to head and body. Final seconds of the fourth ticking away and McCurdy digging to the ribs right to the bell. There it is and the fourth is in the books. Jennette. Wide."
Cassie: "All even again, this time at 38."
ROUND FIVE:
O'Dell: "Fifth begins with more pressure from Jennette. McCurdy ALL up in Sarah's business, banging away to the body, not giving the younger brunette any space. Jeffery tying up again, trying to get a break from the referee, but Jennette punching free and ROCKING SARAH WITH A RIGHT UPPERCUT!"
McCarthy: "That's HITTING ON THE BREAK!"
Cassie: "Except there wasn't a BREAK!"
McCarthy: "SHUT UP, SCABBO!"
O'Dell: "Jeffery wobbled and Jennette going all in now. She's winging away with both hands, PUNISHING the younger brunette, but Sarah's sturdy legs are holding her up. Jeffery backed to the ropes now. She's got the guard high as she tries to run some clock and DOWN SHE GOES!"
Tess: "Right hook!"
O'Dell: "Perfectly placed and Sarah goes down on her left side parallel to the ropes! Jennette to a neutral corner. Referee's count at three. Four. Five. Sarah to her knees, trying to climb the ropes at six, seven, eight. She's not going to get there. Nine. TEN! It's OVER! Sarah still trying to pull herself to her feet as the count passes her by and it's OVER and your winner by KO5 is Jennette McCurdy!"
AFTER:
O'Dell: "Let's go up to the ring and Tess Valmore!"
Tess: "I have our winner, Jennette McCurdy, and, Jennette, she can box some..."
Jennette (nodding): "She can box a LOT. Quick. Hits hard, too. Lots of ability. She gets work, she'll beat girls. But. She's not beating ME. Not tonight. Not ever."
Tess: "Lots of talk about where the flyweight division at Front Street is going..."
Jennette (shaking her head): "I can't worry about that. I just do MY job. I come out here and take care of business and let everything else take care of itself."
"I should have beaten Winter the last time I was here," Sarah says with a shake of the head. "And, Winter is better than THIS girl. So. Do the math."
"Oh, I'm going to DO some math," says a hard-eyed Jennette. "My fist plus her face equals KO."
