Chloe Grace Moretz vs Dakota Fanning
(8-12, 8 KO vs 2-6, 2 KO)
Results: Lookout!; Story: VassagoBEFORE: One can argue Chloe Moretz has stolen Dakota Fanning's Hollywood thunder over the last few years so it's payback time! Dakota believes Chloe should remain a "lousy free agent for the next decade" and vows to smash her to pieces which would end her dream of becoming a managed fighter: "I hear these Lioness rumours, sheesh... no way, not on my watch! She's sooo overrated I can't believe it! I'm gonna make sure she's off everyone's draft board! Bytch! You're going down like a cheap #### you really are!"
"Damn! So much talk from someone so wimpy! But that's Dakota we all know and hate! She's running her mouth while getting punched in the mouth in the ring. Booooring! Time to beat her up and maybe she's done with that crazy talk?", Chloe dismisses the fellow blonde's taunts but without a couple of recent wins over Jennette McCurdy and Julianne Hough she's been the one under pressure and the fight would be too close to call to begin with!
Chloe Moretz wears a navy blue bikini set & pink gloves. Long dark blonde hair tied in a custom ponytail. Dakota Fanning wears a green crop top, matching knee-high leggins & silver gloves. Long blonde hair wrapped in a bun at the back of her head. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the flyweight division.
Round 1:
Hectic tussles from the opening bell as both blondes tear into each other with plenty of juice... if only the execution could follow the ideas though! Several punches fail to connect with the flesh but Dakota finally breaks the futile deadlock and nails Chloe on the chest with a half-uppercut before driving more leather into her guts. Ugh! So much for that Lioness contract hanging in the air as the younger actress suddenly looks overwhelmed by the physical abuse downstairs as Fanning backs her onto the ropes and lays in with more steam. Dakota wants to derail the Moretz hype train alright and keeps plugging along until she has the younger blonde scowling in pain. She adds another quick jabbing burst and buries Chloe behind a tight earmuff which just makes LCA coach Eva Mendes furious at the bell.
Round 2:
Chloe tries to respond in equally ruthless fashion but she's getting outworked by a seemingly creampuff blonde instead! Fanning nails her with one overhand after another before dropping low to punish the exposed tummy again. Ugh! Chloe wobbles to her heels and is lucky enough Dakota misses a pit away hook that would have probably dropped her for the count according to Erin Andrews in the booth! Chloe bails out in hectic retreat and has the younger blonde chasing her around the ring during the second minute before coach Mendes fuels the Lioness trialist's recovery. Chloe stops running away and sticks some meaningful leather on the overhand pounce while Dakota soaks it up without a whimper however she gets rocked to the side following a rare hook on the belly herself and scoffs in anger at the bell with both girls literally throwing a hissy fit for the crowd's pleasure.
Round 3:
Chloe goes for the body assault and drops a bomb into Dakota's ribcage that makes the younger blonde scowl on the spot. She tries to flick a response over the top but gets bumped onto her heels instead as Moretz enforces the phone booth struggle and rips more body shots to throw Fanning off her stance for good. Dakota doesn't look so impressive while yielding real estate anymore but avoids the initial blast as the Bradenton crowd feels the need to support Chloe even louder now. Coach Mendes leads the verbal applause and the ref has to stop the action and give the feisty Latina a warning! This delay helps Fanning to gather her thoughts and she rips a left cross on Chloe's nose before making more progress downstairs as Chloe's tummy remains too exposed for her own good. However a late rabbit punch on the groin calls for another stoppage and Dakota claims she did nothing wrong even if the video evidence says otherwise. Bell interrupts the looming disaster shortly afterwards but Moretz is furious with that one and vows to beat Fanning out of her boots right here!
Round 4:
More wrestling than genuine boxing marks the start of a very untidy fourth round. It's almost like these soft-looking blondes want to punish each other in more ways than one and the ref has his hands full with breaking their routes. Dakota plugs a couple of punches into Chloe's tummy when she has the chance but soaks a response on her chin and wobbles forward into a clinching stalemate which further delays the action. Moretz wants none of these tricks and shoves her away before throwing a punch over the ref's shoulder. Another phone booth tangle, another clash of heads and Dakota's lips begin to swell a little more which fuels her anger. She can't loop a meaingful punch upstairs though as Chloe shows superior mobility before blasting a left hook on the mouth which sends the younger blonde tripping onto the ropes right at the bell.
Round 5:
Mind over matter action in the fifth as Dakota settles into the midriff pounce trying to chop the fellow blonde in half. She lands several good punches but then bottles a knee in the groin while Chloe digs her forearm into her throat and whacks her on the tummy with the other (right) hand. Ugh! Fanning wobbles back onto the ropes where she remains trapped while Moretz keeps pouncing on the exposed area and makes her gurgle in pain thereafter. Dakota almost gets shoved out of the ropes wholesale but manages to clinch the fellow blonde just in time to prevent a complete whitewash alas Chloe refuses to back off and drills her tummy into visible swelling even after the ref pulls her away. Fanning doesn't have the juice to respond anymore, she's out of breath and soaks up a late flurry upstairs with Chloe slicing her leaky high guard from both flanks to run away with the applause as well.
Round 6:
Dakota needs a fresh dose of oxygen now but she simply walks into a brutal left hook on the mouth instead and fails to raise her arms high enough before Chloe tears a bloody patch across her nose to boot. Ugh! The older blonde slumps on her heels and gets thumped up the middle with her guard falling apart on the spot but Moretz belts her with a true stinger and sends Fanning into outright spasms. Another one-two double on the chin hits the jelly mode and Dakota doesn't even see the looping hook on the temple that SENDS HER DOWN ON HER RIGHT SIDE moments later!!! Big time knockdown for the Georgia native who leaps in the air and parades around the ring while the ref is busy with the count. Dakota sits up at five but appears to be in some disarray here, she makes some gestures at the audience but can't get up in time and is counted OUT while sitting down on the canvas! KO6 Chloe Grace Moretz!!!
AFTER: "That should do it!", Chloe taunts the fellow blonde to make a stand but Dakota actually crawls back to her corner and avoids any eye contact with her nemesis. Lioness coach Eva Mendes raises Chloe's arm in the air and everyone inside the Bradenton HQ wants to know whether the blonde makes the team and when the news will be announced. The man in charge, Mr. V himself, makes his way to the ring and announces the signing as official if only Chloe needs to haul her pretty ass to the office upstairs to sign the damn papers: "Welcome aboard, kid! Let's see if you can handle the noise now!"
Jessica Lowndes & Selena Gomez also make an appearance in the ring and the Canadian Alpha warns the new stablemate that "sparring sessions are real here" and that poor Shenae Grimes has had enough of them already. Selena gives the blonde a warm hug and invites everyone to a special musical gig which will be a part of the VIP afterparty celebrating Chloe's arrival as the official Lioness Club of America member.
Official Result: Chloe Grace Moretz def. Dakota Fanning KO6.
