Iggy Azalea versus Joss Stone
(Words: WW / Results: Lookout!)
PRE-FIGHT:
This debut match for the Australian rapper is sure to be an interesting one. She's absolutely ecstatic to show off her strength after spending so much time around her fellow stable members, and looks like she's ready to take on the world. But don't take it from us:
"It's nice to fight for the place that's made me a star, and I'll be sure not to let them down!" Iggy says, smile on her face. "I don't see how I can, though. Joss Stone seems awful mediocre--her looks, her music, and DEFINITELY her fighting--and I guess I should expect that, this being my debut match and all. After I make quick work of her, though, I'm sure they'll let me fry the bigger fish. Hear that, UK? You're taking the 'L' for this fight!" She emphasizes the last statement with a pound of her gloves, chuckling after.
Joss just treats it like another day at the office. "A cocky newcomer? Why am I not surprised?" she acknowledges, with a roll of her eyes. "I'll make sure she takes back everything she says. Things haven't been great for me recently, sure, but it's fine. If I'm oh so terrible, she better be prepared when I end her career here before it even starts!"
Iggy, accompanied by stablemate Ariana Grande, in all white: specifically, white gloves and a sexy little one-piece swimsuit made to accentuate her hips and rear, while Joss is dressed in a UK-patterned two-piece bikini.
-----
ROUND 1: Iggy and Joss meet each other, both seeming incredibly steady. Iggy starts firing some jabs from her right which Joss blocks with ease; the Brit seems to be taking her time, just accepting any punches Iggy's throwing without much of a counter. Suddenly, Iggy throws a hook, and NOW Joss takes her chance, succeeding when she catches the Americanized Aussie in the stomach and gives her a thorough rebuking with her gloves, pounding her over and over. That's not without some payback, though; Iggy lands an uppercut when she gets some breathing room, and starts showing off her quick footwork. Stone looking for another chance to catch her, but she can't get it as Azalea dashes in and out of her range like it was nothing, scoring plenty of good hits. The round ends with Iggy landing a nice punch to Joss' breasts, followed by a little facial work before she's cut off by some quick "get off me!" punches. Iggy takes it, but those final hits almost took it back from her.
ROUND 2: Joss starts showing her dominance this round by catching the Aussie with a surprise revenge breast blow, making her cry out in both shock and pain as Joss moves onto her body. Iggy gets her guard up and starts blocking, narrowly avoiding a powerful uppercut as she leans back. Iggy refocuses her guard to the upper-half, on the defensive. Her punches connect, but Joss pays them no heed as she moves in to bully Iggy into the corner. Stone STILL working that body, and a ref comes in to give Azalea a break. The fight continues, Iggy looking for an opening, but she can't find one as Joss continues her on-point offense. The Brit can't help but smile as she now catches the Aussie in the face, her punches swift and her mercy nonexistent. She's real determined to win this match; so's Iggy, though, as she finally makes some headway by landing a nice strike to the ribs, leaving her opponent's mouth gaping as she follows up with a hook to the abdomen. A straight connects, but Joss finally gets her groove back as she weaves past another punch and reminds Iggy of the pain she felt just a few moments ago by smacking her right in the nose and cheeks with a perfect combo as the round ends. Joss visibly smiles as she walks back to her corner; Iggy's miffed, but more at herself than anyone else. Joss took this one for sure.
ROUND 3: Iggy comes back with a vengeance, but only for so long as Joss proceeds to continue her dominance from the previous round. Fight starts out even, a little back and forth...and then the Brit coming right in with an AMAZING haymaker--but Iggy's still standing! Shocked, Joss presses on, but Iggy stays strong, fighting for her life as she guards against the pressure. Finally, she gets Joss off of her with a few jabs, giving her some necessary breathing room. The girls are just circling each other now, sweating pouring down their faces and bodies. Iggy keeps trying to find anything at all with her left, but Joss instead finds something with her right. It looks like both are just going to stick with the safe game for the rest of the round. Iggy does land a little bit of something, but it hardly matters as Joss unleashes into another gaping hole in Iggy's defense right before the round ends. Joss grabs another!
ROUND 4: Iggy's clearly thinking this time, contemplating what she needs to do. Not too much time for that, as the two ladies get into a nice staring contest. Joss starts AGAIN--ooh, scratch that, Iggy's had enough as she counters with another rib punch! Joss backs off, understandably. The Aussie starts dodging with quickness as blows sail by her, and soon she finds another way to attack as Joss gets WALLOPED in the stomach! Iggy finally gets her chance, her combo moving its way up to the breasts and a punch that grazes Joss' chin; almost getting the Brit into the ropes! But no, this back and forth still hasn't worn either out! Joss survives again, a nice hook making Iggy moan and stagger back with her guard up. Once again, Iggy just won't have it as Joss desperately chips away at her guard without success. It almost feels like the two are building up for something, or at least one of them must be...this round is almost dead even, Iggy and Joss matching each other literally blow-for-blow. Looks like it's staying that way, but Iggy gets the last laugh before the bell rings. Both girls head to their corner, neutral expression on Joss' face, but a smirk on Iggy's for landing that last hit.
ROUND 5: Iggy sticking to that defense, and Joss once again with nothing...another punch comes by and OH! Iggy lands a very unforeseen uppercut to the chin. Joss looks for a way out, but there just isn't one. Iggy raises her right, Joss dodges, but it looks like the Aussie was hiding her left, as that catches Joss once more! Iggy just works that face as she can, sweat and spit flying left and right, but Joss slips out of her range. Not out of Iggy's offense, though; right as she gets comfortable, BOOM! Another right hand from Iggy. The bruising on Joss' face becomes apparent as her red left-cheek starts to get really nasty looking. Iggy's just loving her carnage, smile on her face as fear grows on Joss'; poor girl can't catch a break as her back approaches the ropes! Iggy won't let her leave as she's in the perfect sweet spot to wreak havoc on her opponent. Joss tries for another counter, but Iggy parries the punch away and tears into her with a juicy left punch to the breast, a right into the chin, a right into the side and finally a left into the stomach! You've gotta give it to both gals: they're really putting all of it into this match! Iggy smacks Joss around just a little more, but the punches are a lot less powerful. Is she toying with her or saving her energy? Seems like it's the former. The bell rings, Iggy giving a satisfied laugh and Joss practically slams herself into her corner for some rest. She hung on, but Iggy DEFINITELY takes this one.
ROUND 6: Looks like Joss got herself together, as she's keeping Iggy away. The Aussie's still on offense, but the Brit finally lands some nice counter punches in, fixing up her act from the last round. In fact, Joss just looks downright angry as she swings, most of them missing, but one finally connects! Joss can only get a weak extra hit in, though, Iggy quickly getting back her guard. Iggy's bouncing on her heels as she throws her left, not once but twice, keeping her wits about her as Joss wants to start trading again. Ooh, and Joss catches Iggy in the breast once again, getting a few hits into Iggy's chest before getting a fist jammed right into her face to keep her off. Iggy's getting mad now, as she grits her teeth when Joss throws a punch that grazes her pretty face. Looks like Stone's taking charge again as she lands a few clever punches--Iggy finds herself stuck, but not worried. Another shot from Joss, and THERE IT IS! Iggy mashes her face in with a well-planned haymaker to the gut! Joss obviously not expecting it, as her body goes weak; the Aussie's just tearing her up now, shooting off punch and punch, Joss' groans filling the arena and FINALLY gets the knockdown after a blood-releasing hook makes Joss crash into the ropes and on the floor. Ref comes in to count: Joss wants to get up, tugging on the ropes for support, but she just keeps meeting the floor again! With one last grand effort, she yells out in seemingly both annoyance and agony as she just can't beat the count! KO6 for Miss Azalea!

POST FIGHT:
Iggy is just ecstatic, as is the crowd! The rapper takes a victory lap around the ring, gloves held high with a little hip sway to flaunt her sexy body, no matter how bruised it is. The crowd returns the love with a repeating chant of "IG-GY, IG-GY, U-S-A! IG-GY, IG-GY, U-S-A!"
Poor Joss is still trying to get up, but Iggy takes a break from her victory lap to pick her opponent up. "Yo, Ari!" shouts Iggy to her support. Ariana's reaching for something...and there's Iggy's phone! Pressing the very dazed singer against her body with one glove and pointing the other towards the camera, she winks with a smile on her face. Ariana gives the thumbs up to confirm the picture's good, and the Aussie moves the panting and tired Brit close to her corner...and gives her a nice little shove with her butt, making Stone awkwardly crash into her corner, who clutches at the ropes so she doesn't fall flat on hers! As Joss is still moaning from the pain, seemingly coming to and realizing her loss, Iggy gives a cocky little smirk to the frustrated members of Stone's corner.
As Ariana gives Iggy props and future advice, we catch her for her thoughts after the match. "Well, it was a little harder than I was expecting, but still; Joss is just too weak!" she says, trying to be honest with her tone. "I have more endurance than her, and I know just when someone's about to go down for good. Put that together, and you've got a girl who knows how to win and how to win consistently! And I promise I'll be doing a lot of the latter in the future."
Iggy and Ariana get out of the ring, leaving the former's carnage behind. They back up the ramp to more cheers, Iggy thanking all the supporters as they leave the building.
