(Girls Friday vs Free Agent)

Intro:
Two stunning models fighting it out here in a battle of USA vs England, Hilary Rhoda and Alice Goodwin meet in what should be a hard hitting contest.

Hilary is 32 years old; she stands 5'11, holding a record of 30 wins, all coming by way of knockout, with 9 defeats, she is a former FCBA welterweight champion.

Alice is 34 years old; she stands 5'8, holding a record of 14 wins, all coming by way of knockout, with 7 defeats.

After being cut by the Chimera stable, Alice has had the press asking her repeatedly through the month about how she felt about being cut.

When Alice is interviewed outside her new gym she stops and turns to face them, telling the journalists "look I'll say it one last time, I loved my time there with the stable, especially getting to learn off the greatest in Charlize (Theron) so I hold no grudges if that is what you are trying to get at"

She looks like she is about to head off into the gym, stopping though with an angry look as she asks "OK let me ask you something, you haven't asked me about fight Rhoda because you don't believe I can bear her do you?"

When she sees no one rushing to answer, she tells them "oh Hilary can thank all of you for the blood I am going to spill, she is going to suffer to show all of you that I am not just here to make up the numbers" storming inside the building as some journalists wipe their brow, relieved they didn't come to kick their asses.

At the Girls Friday gym, they find Hilary in the weight room, finishing up training alongside Alessandra Ambrosio and Kendall Jenner, both giving her a moment alone with the press.

They ask her how she feels about Alice, she grins as she replies "well I have heard you guys have been playing the mind games for me" winking as she jokes with the uncomfortable looking journalists.

"Guess I can be honest then, she is a big hitter that I know from my BBU based stablemates see her as something that can be special if given the right push, that push though ended when her stable dropped her like a bad penny though" Hilary says after wiping her chest down with a towel.

She is asked if she feels Alice can beat her, Hilary smiles as she says "of course she can with the right punch, problem for her is that I am not simply going to stand there and let her tee off on me, she'll need to look into her box of tricks to beat me"

Hilary then heads off to continue training after she gets the OK on the press statements, she thanks them for taking the time to visit as she passes them.

Fight night; Hilary comes out first with Melanie Sykes and cut woman Eva Carneiro behind her, Hilary looks relaxed as she steps down the aisle, shaking her arms to keep them loose as she smiles at her fans.

The American is wearing a white sports bra with black trim, matching trunks with "Queenslayer" written in white on the waistband, black shoes and gloves, her hair is tied back into a braid.

She steps through the ropes into the ring, waving to the crowd as she jogs over to her corner, at her corner she begins to stretch as she seems more focused on keeping limber to win this fight.

Out comes Alice now with her coaching team behind her, she is looking business like as she walks down the aisle, no real emotion on her face as she stares at the ring.

The English fighter is wearing a black sports bra, matching trunks, shoes and gloves, her hair is tied back into a fighting ponytail as she keeps a simple look tonight.

Getting through the ropes; Alice bangs her gloves together as she heads over to her corner, going through her warm up with her coaching team telling her to keep relaxed and do what she does best, knocking bytches out.

The referee brings the fighters together to the center of the ring, they square up to each other as Hilary looks slightly down at Alice, their eyes are locked in an intense stare down.

They bump gloves with each other while nodding, turning on their heels to go back to their corners, once everything is set the bell rings to start 10 rounds of welterweight action.

Round 1:
It looks like as they start that Hilary has been caught a little cold by Alice, the Brit is out her corner looking in the mood to knock back the taller fighter with overhand punches smacking into her cheeks.

Back near the ropes Hilary is herded, she lands a few jabs but is getting clipped by the hard fists of Alice, who is keeping in close as she is looking to make this an early night and a big statement out of the fight.

Alice just misses with a right hook, taking two straight punches to her face in reply, Hilary is finally able to get off the ropes where she can begin to work.

Landing more punches to the cheeks of Alice as they head into the final minute, the American letting her hands go more, Alice taking them flush on her face as she hunts down Rhoda.

In the final seconds of the round, Alice slips a straight punch to hammer in a right to the tits of Hilary, who gasps out with a shocked look, one that gets knocked off her face with a left hook.

At the bell Alice holds back from a right landing to Hilary's face, returning to their corners, Alice gets a nod from her coach, who tells her not to go over the top with her temper.

Round 2:
Again Alice is looking to bully back Hilary, landing double jabs into the mouth of the taller fighter, keeping her on the back foot as she steps forwards.

Banging more punches off the gloves of her opponent, Alice is simply looking to be on the attack, not much defence as she takes several straight shots into her face when Hilary can get out her guard.

Moving away from the ropes, Hilary is digging her punches into the cheeks of Alice, dancing around her as she is looking more comfortable with this.

Problem for her though is Alice won't let her have room that easily, bumping back Hilary with a left shoulder, bodying up to Rhoda as she bashes her to the body with several short right hards.

Ending up back on the ropes, Hilary looks frustrated as she wraps up Alice in a tight clinch, Alice shoving her right forearm into the chin of Hilary as she tries to break free, the referee splits them up and warns Alice to keep things clean.

The bell rings to close out the round with Alice banging her gloves together as she returns to her corner, her cheeks have a pink hue but her team look happier then their counterparts.

Round 3:
Sliding her feet more across the ring when Alice comes at her, Hilary is sidestepping her opponent more as she looks for a way to keep Alice from simply bulldozing her.

After Alice takes several clean combinations to her face, that seems to get her attention to cover up more tightly, Hilary almost looks to be breathing in relief.

Hilary goes to land a jab/right cross combo, Alice smacks in a right hook to the body as she dips down, Hilary looking to regret that decision as she takes another left to her abs.

Now it's Alice back on the front foot, pressing back Hilary towards a corner with short sharp digs to the body forcing air from Hilary.

When she goes to press Hilary on the ropes, Alice's head is pushed down by the right of the American, a left uppercut smacking into the mouth of Goodwin to make her retreat back.

Dancing off the ropes, Hilary is able to keep Alice to the outside of her reach in the final moments of the round, landing a stiff jab followed by a right hook across the left eye of Goodwin to make her cry out.

When the round ends Hilary raises her right fist into the air, jogging back to her corner to be asked "why did you wait so long to really start fighting?" Melanie then grins as Hilary nods at her.

Round 4:
Stepping back out looking more relaxed now, Hilary is moving side to side, trying to keep Alice off her base so she can't unload her punches like before.

Forcing Alice to trade more jabs, which she shows she can do as both lash out swift jabs into the others chin and face, though Alice is just missing with her haymaker like shots, Hilary making her pay each time with punches square into her face.

The point scoring is definitely coming from Hilary right now, she is keeping Alice back at range, while marking up her face with two or three punch combos each time she sees an opening, sweat coming off the head of Goodwin.

When Hilary misses though Alice comes roaring back at her, bodying up to Hilary to make the crowd roar, they get to watch Alice's beefy hooks make Hilary grimace.

A nudge with her left forearm and a straight to the nose of Alice give Hilary some freedom to work again, though Alice doesn't want her to breath if she can help it.

Leading to heads getting turned as they test the others chin with hooks, a dangerous game by Hilary as she is forced to clinch when she doesn't seem to like it, the bell rings as the referee steps in to break them apart.

Most people agreeing that it is pretty even now as they return to their corners, Alice's corner telling her to rely on her abilities, she nods as she knows that she can't let her opponent keep on the move.

Across the ring Hilary looks up at Melanie, who is telling her to keep her focus, they know that one punch from Alice and things will turn terrible for them.

Round 5:
Relying on that jab of Hilary, she is keeping on her bike, there's definitely some puffiness around the cheeks of Alice as she is trying to close down the gap.

Slipping a straight, Alice is able to step inside to work away, forcing Hilary to fight in tight as she herds her back around the outside of the ring, sweat flying off them as the heavier punches come.

An uppercut knocks back Hilary to her heels, Alice forcing her to cover up as she steps in, drilling away to the body as she looks to break open the guard of the former champ.

Who is forced to clinch up Alice, the referee steps in to split them up, Hilary fighting more on the back foot, trying to reestablish that gap between them.

Alice looks to have the bit back between her teeth now, stepping in to force Hilary into firefights, two overhand punches knock back Hilary to her heels.

When the round ends Alice can be seen mouthing "come on" she knows what a win over Hilary will mean and is desperate to get this win, her coach fist bumping her before she sits on her stool, they work on reducing the swelling around her cheeks.

The same thing is happening in the Girls Friday corner, Hilary getting told "that's what happens when you don't focus, she is too dangerous to let off the leash, f*** her up!" With Hilary thudding her gloves together as she taps her right foot on the canvas.

Round 6:
Coming out their corners trading single punches as Hilary fights on the back foot, Alice is stepping after her like she has through out thus fight, like she has no reverse gear.

As Alice throws an overhand right, Hilary gets her head out the way, instead a left lands across the temple of the Brit, whose eyes blink as an uppercut smacks into her chin.

Several more clean shots come in as Alice tries to fight her way out of trouble, A RIGHT HOOK SQUARE ON HER CHIN TAKES HER DOWN TO THE CANVAS ON HER SIDE!

The Hilary camp are all jumping as they feel she has her girl, 1...2...3.. Alice turns to her front, staring at the ropes as 4...5...6... She crawls towards them, 7...8.. Climbing up them as the supporters are chanting "stay down!" Or "get up Alice!" At her 9.. She makes it to her feet with Hilary shocked by what she is seeing.

Stepping back together, Alice is a little shaky but she is still game to try to come back at Hilary, it looks like she still has some problems though as Hilary is beating her to the punch more often then not.

A three punch combo snaps back the head of Alice, who is getting beaten on the ropes with hard hooks, THE REFEREE STEPS IN AS ALICE IS BARELY DEFENDING HERSELF!

Winner Hilary Rhoda KO Round 6

After:
Raising her fists into the air; Hilary marches back to her corner knowing she just stopped a hell of a tough woman, her corner team rushing into the ring to hug her as they know how hard it was for Hilary.

Alice looks upset at the stoppage, asking the referee why the did that; even as her legs look shaky, her coach helps her back to her stool as she looks to be fighting back tears.

Both women have to be worked on as their faces show the brunt of the battle, each has swelling and Alice's right eye looks like it will have a hell of a shiner by the next morning.

Alice still doesn't look happy as she steps up to head to the center of the ring for the result, not letting the referee hold her arm as she just looks away from her and Hilary.

The referee does lift up Hilary's hand, who is looking over at Alice, thinking better it seems of saying anything to her as she just nods to the referee and heads back over to her corner.

With Goodwin now leaving the ring, maybe wanting a rematch with Hilary sooner then later, her coach though is more interested right now in calming her down as she looks ready to tear her dressing room apart.

Inside the ring Hilary hugs both Eva and Melanie, she'll have one eye on the welterweight title fight between Antje Utgaard and Amanda Righetti, hoping she can be in line for a shot soon.

She soon steps out the ring giving out high fives to people in the front row, a big smile on her face as she jogs up the aisle, Melanie telling Eva "she is so ready to get back on top" getting a bug smile and nod from Eva.
