Round 1 of the Snowstorm Series

BEFORE: Sophie Howard's rise to the top of the Tigress Uppercut JMDD rankings has turned several heads on this side of the Atlantic however beating Hall Of Famer Jennifer Garner justifies that moment of glory for the 33 year old Merseyside brunette. Some pundits even call it the high-water mark yet Howard remains an overwhelming favorite entering tonight's jug muggin' clash against a women labelled as her clone.

It's not just that Tahnee Atkinson stands 5'8" tall like her English opponent but the mirroring looks lead to obvious assumption both women could pose as sisters along the way. While Sophie's rapid rise to JMDD stardom could be short-lived, Tahnee has a bright future ahead of her according to various sources from her native Australia and might well upset Howard the same way Howard upset Jennifer Garner back in October.

Sophie Howard wears a red bikini top with white trim, matching knickers and red gloves. Long dark brown hair straight. Tahnee Atkinson wears a golden bikini top, neon green hotpants and matching neon green gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a curled ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the welterweight division. JMDD rules apply.

Round 1:
As much as the older brunette wants to dominate the early going, Tahnee's youthful approach makes the difference and allows her to twirl around her opponent while thumping single-hand assault and stay out of Howard's reach. The English babe quickly becomes annoyed by this tactics and several fans believe she really thrives on that pre-fight favorite mojo and simply can't accept Atkinson showing her no respect whatsoever. However the Aussie keeps throwing quicker punches and beats the other woman blow by blow which eventually secures a repeated jug connection that lifts Sophie's boobs much to the crowd's delight. Howard lands a heavy shot from the left to finally test the strenght of Tahnee's cleavage deep into the final minute but then wobbles on her heels when she gets whacked by a vicious uppercut right at the bell. Tahnee twerks some jug moments later and bursts out laughing while the English brunette scowls in anger already.

Round 2:
Since Tahnee has no intentions to roll the red carpet for her opponent, Sophie needs to increase the tempo of the fight to have a realistic chance of shutting the younger girl down. She does just that in the second but the bumper cars boxing leads to a stalemate since neither woman yields an inch and it's too early for the fatigue and punishment to make a difference yet. As a result the crowd is handed a vicious back & forth slugging affair that lifts mucho jugs left, right and center but other than primal screams from both sides there's nothing to indicate imminient turn of fotunes for any of these babes. Sophie does look a little out of breath at the bell but channel her anger much better this time and well, Tahnee's smile remains in tact as well.

Round 3:
More of the same in the third, a genuine war of attrition that doesn't provide a clear winner allthough Tahnee looks more focused now and lands more clean shots which rattle Sophie's cage come the final minute. Age could very much play a part in this contest as Sophie has a dismal record against women born in the 90s - just ask Antje Utgaard about that - and has thrived being the junior feature in the ring. That's not the case tonight and despite the round being otherwise even, the final minute has Sophie trying to lock a clinch and jug pressing her opponent into the ropes rather than actually striking her properly. Tahnee's lack of experience shows right there and she allows the older brunette to shove her into the turnbuckle but a desperate lunge at the liver area indicates the young Aussie is ready to dish out a punishment on her own.

Round 4:
Sophie clubs some Aussie jug early in the fourth after blasting out of the gate for a change. She smacks the younger foe straight up the middle and Tahnee misplaces her weight so that she drops back to her heels after the Merseyside lass hauls in a clean jabbing series. The hitherto superior footwork deserts Atkinson thereafter and enables the Brit to rally more jug muggin' success to the point the Aussie is the one looking for a stalemate come the second minute. However Sophie leans on her and delivers a quick jabbing assault that lifts the golden bikini top cover and has Tahnee looking down at her embattled chest; that's a classic JMD(D) mistake but Howard's eyes are glued on her rival's tits more than anything else and a switch downstairs is overlooked which helps Tahnee to weather the storm down the stretch. Still, the young prospect gets whooped plenty and spends the final minute trapped on the ropes with Howard rallying into a dominant position at the bell, a late hook bounces off that golden bikini top and catches Atkinson's jaw to put the icing on the cake.

Round 5:
Atkinson looked vulnerable in the previous round for the first time tonight but she responds in a massive way to shut down Howard's swinging approach. The nifty footwork comes the fore again and as Sophie looks to bump into the Aussie cleavage, she only grazes the forearms and wobbles forward into a quick uppercut blast on the jugs which unsettles her on the spot. Howard slumps against the fellow brunette's shoulder but more importantly gets caught into a firestorm of leather aimed at the guts and becomes stranded in the center of the ring with Tahnee wrecking havoc in the midriff area. Ugh! Howard's old demons return as she fails to shake off the Aussie barrage and gets literally shoved into the ropes through sheer punching effort of her foe. Tahnee thrives on the midsection pounding and doesn't let go until the ref hauls her off at the bell with Howard's ribcage looking worryingly bruised. What's worse, the Merseyside veteran is seriously out of breath and slumps onto her stool in visible pain. Advantage Atkinson at half-distance!

Round 6:
Sophie needs extra respite after that difficult round but Tahnee gives her none and resumes the midriff shellacking that suddenly open the floodgates when she digs her right hand into the solar plexus. Howard winces instantly and wobbles forward to bump her chin against Tahnee's shoulder before getting pounded back to the ropes in a hurry. The feisty Aussie model just lets it rip from here on and buries the English lass under a leather storm that dissects the high guard and allows Tahnee to camp in her opponent's cleavage for good. The red & white bikini top loosens up and Sophie begins to scream in horror when she accepts the superior strenght that comes from Atkinson's gloves. Ugh! Forget the Hall of Fame scalp, this is new dawn for the JMDD era as Tahnee Atkinson lifts Sophie's boobs into her slumping chin and keeps hammering along until the English babe just can't take it anymore and slides down onto her backside in the corner half-way through the round! "Stay down, bytch!", Atkinson finally lets some dark emotions go as she watches carefully if the older brunette does indeed make a comeback here. She doesn't and rolls onto her left side looking in a world of pain right now. KO6 Tahnee Atkinson!!!

AFTER: The Tigress Uppercut rankings are destined to change after this result and Sophie's tenure at the top is indeed short-lived. However that's the last thing on Tahnee's mind as she celebrates her JMDD awakening and comes crashing down on the fallen English babe. No time to have the gloves removed and the subsequent pounding of a defenseless Merseyside jug triggers another primal roar from the crowd. Sophie's just not in shape to avoid this humiliation even though she begs for mercy. Ugh! Tahnee lands several clean strikes and has the defeated woman on the verge of ultimate collapse but actually wants the red & white bikini top as battle trophy. Since Sophie isn't going anywhere the Aussie babe has all the time in the world to have her mitts removed and then claws her nails into the saggy flesh making Howard gurgle in pain. That's a concept straight from Page Three behind the scenes material and Atkinson goes in all dragging her foe by her breasts to the center of the ring where she finally takes care of the bikini top and waves it over her head after rendering the Merseyside brunette topless. Of course the sight of Howard's bare assets isn't new to anyone familiar with her off-ring activites but it remains a pleasing experience every which way you want to look at it. If Sophie was supposed to surrender her JMDD top ranking then she couldn't have done it more fittingly tonight. All hail the new babe in town though, the Odds & Ends don't have to exclusively rely on Kendra Wilkinson in jug muggin' business anymore!

Final result: Tahnee Atkinson def. Sophie Howard KO6.
