Alyssa Lynch vs Rachel Barnes
Alyssa:
(23, 5’7, 120, FCBA, VIXENs)
Rachel:
(33, 5'7, FCBA Debut, The Fighting Academy)
BEFORE:
“I’ve seen Barnes in action once or twice before, back when she was scouted at a VIX event. Suffice it to say, I wasn’t too impressed, and I could tell that management wasn’t either, because here we are, facing off at two ends of a spectrum. Barnes can hit hard but she lacks experience. My game plan is solid tonight - I’m gonna make short work of her before we hit the fifth round.”
Barnes not looking too bothered or nervous at the other end of the table either, folding her arms across her chest and pushing her long, brown hair to the side, revealing that gorgeous smile.
“I’m bringing extra power to our fight tonight, and Lynch can talk all she wants, but at the end of the day, I have what it takes to make her kiss the ground. She’s known for her speed, but that’s about it. I’m gonna take the wind out of her sails today.”
Face-off on stage is tense, with both girls with hands on hips and smirking confidently. Barnes slightly more well-built, but that physicality isn’t intimidating Alyssa too much. Rachel dressed in black bra and panties, grey shawl over her shoulders. Alyssa going for dark violet lingerie set, dark brown hair tied up into a battle bun.
Later, in the ring, both girls are met with a strong roar of support from the gathered crowds. It’s pride on the line tonight, hoping to get ahead in the rankings and a better place in the league rankings. Referee calls for the bell and HERE we go with ten rounds of Bantamweight action!
ROUND 1:
Spritely affair with these two Bantamweights bouncing on their toes at the opening bell. Alyssa obviously moving a hell lot more, a little more worried of tasting brunette power. Barnes smiling as she advances, knows she's got that advantage going for her if she manages to overpower the conversation early. Scene is as such: wide, strapping hooks forcing Lynch to jump backwards at a moment's notice, before the jabs start flying in both directions as Alyssa fires back, still can't catch anything of value when Barnes covers up her head. Barnes finally snags a big one late in the round: right hook that catches Lynch on the side of body, then another one landing on the middle of her raised arm, blowing her sideways with a grunt. Tough round for the Vixen, who needs to develop a better strategy going forward if she doesn't want to get bullied.
ROUND 2:
Short, powerful hits rain down on Barnes as Alyssa goes to work, using her speed and precision to target the rookie's face and body, with the plan to wither her down bit by bit. Barnes looking stunned as this goes on for almost two minutes, a look of surprise repeatedly getting bashed in at having the tables turned so fast. She's still controlling her breathing, not making any sounds of panic, just content with taking the hits, but from the way she's wincing after every glove hits, Alyssa is clearly doing some damage. Barnes has had enough of this harassment in the last minute of the round, comes charging forward like a mad woman hoping to get lucky. Alyssa manages to dodge out of the way of her first few swings, then gets caught with a blasting hook of dynamite as Barnes throws the brunette off balance. But Lynch manages to run away before any of Barne's followup hooks can land. Bell rings and it's Lynch's round for her early dominance, and the rest of the fight, only if she manages to keep her distance from Barne's power.
ROUND 3:
Barnes learning on the fly, however, knows she can't catch Alyssa so easily and therefore decides to stay back and draw Lynch in. Alyssa buoyed by her recent success, lands a jab combo to the face but then gets blasted across the cheek when Rachel times one of her hooks just nicely, swiping the poor girl's head to the side after deliberately taking two of Alyssa's light taps on the lips. It's pure sink or swim moment for the Vixen as she struggles to scoot away from her dangerous foe, but her body taking another beating when Barnes gets in close and buries left-right-left into her side and tummy. Vixen gurgling, folded over in half, only manages to get away when she pokes Barnes in the nose with her jab, making her think twice about rushing after her for the kill. Rest of the round sees Lynch maintaining a good arm's distance and Rachel herself looks like she's running out of steam.
ROUND 4:
Slow first minute as both girls appear reluctant to engage, with Barnes covering up early when Alyssa fires a torrent of jabs toward her head, sending a strong deterrent against bodying up against her and dominating. Rachel may be packing power in her fists, but she still has much to learn about getting around a wall of punches and possible pain. Alyssa playing the long game as she strikes through the holes in her foe's defence, constant racking up points as she shoves leather onto Rachel's lips and body. Barnes suddenly looking rocked by the second minute, off-kilter wavering as she tries to steady herself a few seconds - more than enough time for Alyssa to pounce in for the killing blow. Another combination batters her guard and face, and Barnes doesn't see that uppercut coming till it's too late - arms too high in the sky as Lynch lands a nasty WHACK into her chin, sending the brunette flailing backwards and crashing down onto her back!
It's a KNOCKDOWN for Alyssa Lynch! Loud roar from the raven-haired tigress as she puts away her heavy-hitting foe within four rounds! Barnes not even bothering to get up from that one, flat on her back and eyelids fluttering in the sharp light. It's all over when the referee waves the fight off at the count of 10!!
Official Decision: Alyssa Lynch defeats Rachel Barnes via KO4!
AFTER:
A series of ups and downs for the Vixen now ending on a latest high note, with Lynch showing plenty of dominance against some lesser-known folk but struggling to put away the top 20 girls in her own division.
Still, she's all smiles in her celebration in corner, commenting to reporters ringside: "She tried to bully me out there, but I wasn't going to let her. Look what happened in the end: I'm the one standing and smiling."
Barnes dropping back down to 1-3, her future looking bleak indeed if she continues to run out of steam so early in the fight. Still, we think the Fight Acad girl's got plenty of potential in the long run. Perhaps she just needs to find the right opponent to face off against in the future.
