Halle Berry versus Julia Roberts (Cougar)

The cougar bout tonight features two Oscar winners as Julia Roberts will be boxing Halle Berry.

The pre-fight press is very positive and respectful as benefiting two Academy Award winners who have respect for each other. Both talk about how exciting it is to be back boxing again. Also how they are working on their film careers too.

Questions are brought up about a possible series of bouts between these two during the late 1990s and early 2000s. Both do not deny their existence or confirm them. I am sure the FCBA Historical Library will soon come across something on these soon, we hope.

The weigh in is done with class as both boxers come out in sexy bikinis that fit their bodies like gloves.

Again fight posters, handbills and other memorabilia from this bout will be highly valued as the nature of this bout and the boxers.

Fight night arrives and the boxers come to the ring by walking to it on a red carpet.

Halle is first in the ring and she is wearing the black push up and panties she wore in Swordfish with white gloves.

Julie is next into the ring and she is wearing the black panties with silver and black bra from Pretty Woman with white gloves too.

Round 1:

Julia comes out behind a good firm jab which she works into Halle’s chest with some hooks which force Halle to regroup. Berry, who now is using her bouncing on her toes and movement, gets her right hand slashing at Julia’s face and her left whipping into Roberts’ midsection. She goes to Julie’s right ear with a right cross and left uppercut into her chin. Roberts’ seems wobbly but she soaks it up and then goes back to work on Halle’s bust and she walks her down.

The round ends a draw and the fans cheer the boxers as they return to their corners.

Round 2 & 3:

Halle takes the next round widely thanks to her footwork and handspeed. Berry seems to slash and snipe at Roberts with her heavy rights. Julia has to cover up but she does jab back at Halle. This does surprise Berry and keeps Roberts in the bout as she drops the round sadly for her. The third was a close round as Halle again used her footwork to smash away at Julia and her face. Julia answers back with jabs and straights to Halle’s chest and gut. The fans cheered as the two traded punches during the round. Berry won this close round thanks to her handiwork and footwork.

Round 4:

The opening of the fourth saw Roberts using her long reach with some hard straights. She used these to move Halle back and to the roped by mid-round. There Julia goes to work on Halle’s body and then go upstairs to her face. Maybe some payback as Julia unleashes some hard hooks to Berry’s face. Halle’s movements are starting to slow as she is taking punches to her ribs and midsection. The round is won widely by Julia as she took it to Halle this time.

Round 5:

Julie came out of her corner, bearing down on Halle. She uses a slick right hand to knock Berry back and then works her backwards to the ropes with straight rights and left crosses. Roberts is hounding Berry as she is leaning into the ropes with huge hooks into her gut and midsection. Julia follows those up with right uppercuts and crosses to her face and chin. One of those puts Halle out on her feet AND BERRY GOES DOWN! Julia stands for a moment over Halle before going to a neutral corner. She watches in excitement as Halle is counted out of the bout. KO 5 – Julia Roberts.

After:

Roberts comes out of the corner with her arms raised as she soaks in the crowd’s cheers. This was a great bout and the fans cheer as Halle is now sitting in her corner being worked on by her corner team. Julia comes to center of the ring and has her right glove raised in victory. She poses and stays in the ring to enjoy her win.

Berry goes to her locker room and talks briefly about the bout.

Roberts eventually reaches her locker room and discusses the bout too but as a winning boxer.

The fans saw a great bout and here's hoping these two will box more.
