Results: Lookout!; Story: Vassago
BEFORE: "Losing to Kendall Jenner was tough but I'm ready to take this British cow down tonight! I hear she wants to use ME as the spring board for immediate elite success. Like what? She coudn't even win a BBU title and she wants to do what? Hell, she beat Miranda Kerr? So what? I should be blowing the doors off Mary Elizabeth Winstead instead of this British wannabe! It's time to get serious with this impostor!"
If the Foxfire Boxing thought about sneaking under the PPV radar then Odette Yustman's pre-fight comments surely didn't escape the media's attention. However Sophie hasn't tasted defeat in thirteen months across both sides of the Atlantic so GM Jennifer Garner uses all her Hall of Fame status to back the Northampton redhead: "I know Odette wants Mary but if she can't beat Sophie then she should be heading for the exit door! She's losing money over Brooklyn Decker and Lily Aldridge making more noise these days and I know she hates it! She's desperate like no other Lioness girl! Kendall Jenner is so above her right now and she still wanted a piece of her. Dumb idea! Throwing shade on our Red Rocket is even dumber!"
Odette Yustman wears a yellow bikini set with black trim & black gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a sleek ponytail. Sophie Turner wears a silver sports bra with red trim, red hotpants & black gloves. Medium-lenght carrot red hair tied in two fancy pigtails. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the lightweight division.
Round 1:
Odette takes those Jennifer Garner comments personal and spends majority of the opening round stalking Sophie in close range while the Brit probably expected a much calmer introduction here tonight. She gets picked off with pesky overhands and just can't work around the brunette's famous mobility. It's a bad look when you get outslugged by such a defensive-oriented fighter but this has been Odette's main vice over the years. She elbows her way into full command come the second minute when she bounces more juice into the redhead's lips and Turner just has to bail out of there when Yustman slams a left hook on the eye which wobbles the younger woman to the side outright. Odette's more at ease with the subsequent pounce while Sophie looks plain spooked out there reeling along the ropes for safety.
Round 2:
Jennifer Garner gives the other redhead a proper pep talk ahead of the second and Sophie makes sure she sticks her mitts into Odette's face against the run of play as the brunette rolls out for more damage herself. Both women tangle in the center of the ring but Sophie neutralizes the brunette with a nice hook on the solar plexus that Yustman simply didn't see coming. Ugh! Another quick uppercut finds the jaw before Odette can do anything about it and she gets dumped on her heels as Turner steps up and fires a nasty hook on the eye. Odette trips over her own feet and loses her stance just so Turner barges her in the boobs and lands another brutal hook on the jaw that pins the American behind a deep earmuff on the ropes! Here comes Sophie... she rattles the high guard and smacks a left hook on the nose as Yustman remains trapped there for remainder of the round but the redhead just can't drop her for the count and looks pretty upset about it at the bell.
Round 3:
Odette's forced into some early action and she withstands the early slugging pressure despite Sophie working on her nose time and time again. Ugh! Even Erin Andrews in the booth predicts some blood spillage incoming but Yustman finds success when she switches downstairs to tackle the exposed midsection. Sophie gets carried away with the head-hunting pursuit and just fails to cover up when the American nails her on the solar plexus before plugging the belly button to make the Brit scowl in pain. Ugh! Sophie drops her arms and Odette slams a right hook on the jaw that sends Turner into dizzy town... Another wild hook tears a gash under the right eye but Sophie's heading for the exit door and wobbles into a left hook almost without taking notice... DOWN GOES TURNER!!! Odette screams out in joy and eyeballs Jennifer Garner in the Foxfire corner but she needs to be careful since Sophie isn't quite done here yet... the plucky Brit gets up at eight and avoids immediate disaster when Yustman rolls out to finish her off... Sophie reels into safety and shows impressive wheels to fend off the lioness hunt as Odette loses her composure in order to set up the haymaker finish... this is so unlike her but she really wants a piece of Mary Elizabeth Winstead or what?
Round 4:
Yustman thinks Turner will need time to recover from that knockdown but the redhead has other ideas and slugs herself back into contention dropping a bomb on the brunette's solar plexus and out-muscling her in a close range stance early in the fourth. Odette barks in disgust as she has the Brit thumping her midsection but she can't respond over the top and gets sucked into the swarming pit of misery... both girls let it rip like it's a flyweight spring break boxing show and the intensity is very much real as both ponytails fly around the area... immediate damage on Sophie's lips but she responds by drilling Odette's nostrils and the older actress begins to feel the heat.. she steps back and hauls one from the back foot however Turner doubles up and crosses from the inside... she NAILS the brunette on the nose and packs a brutal hook on the eye that makes Odette gurgle in pain... Sophie steps up and fires a brutal follow up on the jaw that shuts Yustman down; she wobbles to the right with eyes closed but Turner is right there and BLASTS her on the nose with one shot too many... DOWN GOES ODETTE!!! Uh-oh! Brunette collapses to her knees and rolls to her left side with eyes closed as Sophie high-fives coach Garner already. Odette folds into embrional position during the otherwise slowish count and this one is over! KO4 Sophie Turner!!!
AFTER: "Yeah, so much for trying to intimidate Mary Elizabeth! Odette feels like damaged goods now!", Jennifer Garner can't keep that wry smile off her face as she takes over the mic while Sophie gets her gloves removed in the background. The Foxfire crew feels very good about themselves as the explore the redhead's options on this side of the Atlantic whereas it's almost back to the drawing board scenario for Odette & the Lionesses. Going down to Kendall Jenner is one thing but getting smoked by a BBU convert like Sophie Turner is a very bad sign indeed. Odette's elite ambitions remain very much alive but some pundits begin to believe that maybe - just maybe - Lily Aldridge is actually the stable's best lightweight option going forward!
Official Result: Sophie Turner def. Odette Yustman KO4.
