Intro:
Now it‘s time for our first big marquee match of the evening!
Kira Kosarin and Demi Lovato are two of the division‘s hottest, most popular stars and when they last fought in November 2019, Kira eked out a close KO win over her rival. This time they they step foot inside the legendary Madison Square Garden to see who of them‘s the best right now. Back in November 2019, both women came out with their guns a-blazin‘, showcasing their different style and mentality in the ring, until Kira summoned that little bit of extra magic, pounding Demi out in the eighth round via an left uppercut that swept Lovato off her feet for good.
Just over a year later, both of these proud, pretty brunettes can‘t wait to get back into the ring against each other, sniping at and provoking each other with little tidbits for their armies of social media followers. Demi let Kira know that it was about time for “#retributation2020 – no silly luck for Kira this time!“ Kira replied with a video from her own training camp, adding that “Demi, darling: you can mouth off all you want, but let‘s get real, please – I‘m fitter, stronger and tougher than you! I‘m simply a better all-around fighter than you could ever dream to be – I‘m just #simplythebest“
Both women appeared separately on the FCBA Network set with host Lucy Liu getting a few words from them. Kira was up first, wearing a gorgeous little black dress and matching heels, her stunning smile on display, excited to meet a living fighter‘s legend like Lucy:
“She‘s been through a lot, and Demi‘s a true fighter – I will give her that,“ Kira admits when asked about her upcoming foe after exchanging pleasantries with Lucy for a while. “But she‘s already had her shot at me – and you know what, I slugged her ass out! I‘ve already proven that I‘m better than her! All pressure‘s on Demi now – she‘ll have to prove that *she* is good enough to step into the friggin‘ ring with *me*, and I‘ll tell you a secret, folks – she‘s not!“, Kira says, grinning that sly, confident smile of hers.
Of course, fortunes have recently turned a bit sour for hungry, ambitious Kira herself, so spoiled by success in her young, flashing career so far. She‘s stormed to the bantamweight straps early in the year, after three failing bids at the title before. Then sudden whammies started to hit all over the place – first, a last second KO title loss to brutal, relentless rival redhead Bella Thorne...second, Lizzie Olsen knocked her out hard...third, rookie Samara Weaving came, pasting Kira out to sleep in a shocking JMD upset that had pundits gasping in utter surprise. Of course, Kira did since come back with a strong showing against smart, veteran Kat Dennings, but how confident is Kira after three straight losses, the bantam title stripped off her waist by her signature rival early in the year?
“Trust me: I will win that title back!“, a serious, no-nonsense Kira shares her thoughts with Lucy. “There‘s no way I will ever accept Bella‘s superiority in the ring. I know things haven‘t run smoothly since then but I have already shown that I can run this division, right? I‘m only 23 – and I‘ve got the skills and dedication to win multiple titles. I‘ll frustrate, show up and pound out girls for years to come! You know, I‘m the one who‘ll always be there to dash your bantam dreams, girls!“
Demi was next up in the hot seat. She wore a red t-shirt with jeans and red high heels, hugging Lucy as they talk about how the other is doing, Lucy patting Demi on her left shoulder before they sit down. For Lovato herself, 2020‘s not been a good year. She‘s long been a dominant factor at bantam, so going from 11-4 (2019) to 2-4 (2020) is a surprising turn of event for Lookout‘s prime bantam slugger:
“That‘s true, Lucy,“ Demi admits, yet holding her head up high. “I‘m a little horrified by it myself. You know me well, Lucy, I was a rosy-cheeked kid trying to make a name for herself, and you‘d always come and talk to me after fights, giving me advice and showing me support. You‘re the best, Lucy! So you know I‘ve fought much worse in my life than losing streaks – I‘m a fighter! I‘m just all out tough – this is simply a set-back for me to overcome, and I know I can overcome anything!“, she says, noticing Lucy nodding in approval.
The subject next turns to her opponent Kira, and Demi‘s asked about their first fight:
“I showed her too much respect in the ring, as weird as that sounds,“ Demi admits. “You know, she‘s a brazen, sassy girl with a special brand of confidence – and she was trying to get in my head and all, making comments about me not making weight for the fight, and so on. I just couldn‘t get the right focus in the ring – so she caught me with some good shots, and before I knew I was on my back counting how many lights there were on the ceiling“, she laughs, trying to break the tension in the room.
“This time, trust me – I‘m ready. Most importantly, I‘m fitter than ever – Kira‘s going to be in the ring with a freakin‘ pitbull who‘ll latch, rip and bite away at her all friggin‘ night! I‘ve been looking at what Samara‘s done to her on JMD – and it‘s opened my eyes a bit! Kira‘s just a pretty bully – and now I‘m here to take her fighter‘s soul! I know she will collapse to the canvas when my freakin‘ pressure‘s coming strongly! She thinks she can just look down on me? Trust me – I‘m about to teach her some respect, *my* boot on *her* flat chest!“, she says sternly, sharing a warm embrace with Lucy, as the hall of famer‘s wishing her all the best of luck.
And now it‘s time for fight night!
Kira comes out first with Nadia Bjorlin beside her. The two women look calm and confident, as they walk down the aisle – a relaxed, smiling Kira fist-bumps a few members of the front row, clearly trying to give the impression that she‘s only fighting some sort of tune-up journey girl instead of the elite, dangerous marquee fighter Demi actually is.
The beautiful actress steps into the ring wearing a metallic-blue sports bra, metallic-blue trunks with two yellow thunder bolts running up the sides of the legs, “The K.O. Kid“ printed in silver letters across it, metallic-blue boots, yellow gloves, her hair tied into a ponytail, bowing to each side of the ring, jogging to her corner and ready to limber up.
Now Demi‘s pushing through the curtain, walking down the aisle to the ring with a purpose, her eyes set firmly and only on the ring. This fight definitely means a lot to her, and she‘s got revenge on her mind, as Julie Benz follows behind her. The stunning singer climbs into the ring wearing a black sports bra with white trim, matching trunks and boots, white gloves with black thumbs, her hair tied into a braid, jogging over to her corner right away, all hard-eyed, no-nonsense, bouncing on her toes, throwing deadly, confident stares at a relaxed, nonchalant, grinning Kosarin.
The referee waves the fighters together, as she‘s going through his final instructions. The two pretty, strong fighters lock their eyes into an intense stare down – and the tension in the ring‘s clear for all to see, the crowd hushing, watching these two closely to see what happens. No drama so far as girls are focussed about the upcoming fight – girls touch gloves, making a heavy slap of leather, as gloves thud to opposite gloves, and girl take a jog back to corners, listening to their fans‘s chants, getting ready for ten rounds of PRIME bantamweight action, fists up, chests out, heads up high.
Round 1:
Girls display trademark polar opposite styles, as they start off the fight – Kira‘s more upright, boxing tall from her textbook stance, pivoting left around her jabs – Demi‘s wild, aggressive, sloshing that upper bod around, stepping or leaning into Kira to close the distance. Girls trade quick, vicious jabs for early control – Kira being tall, grazing Demi‘s lovely cheeks, streaking her hairline via tasty, early jabs to get a feel on her foe. Kosarin using a safe distance, stepping out left/right after her jabs, weaving tall from side to side, her arms and stance relaxed, smooth, so confident. Demi‘s eyes are wide, focused, concentrated on timing, reading gaps: a jab gets slipped, and she catches Kira a thumping little right hook upside the trunks/ribs, moving up close, as Kira humps up, goes ooof!
Lovato lands short hup-hup belts, BASHES across Kira‘s frame/flanks, staying tight n‘ compact, churning Kira‘s sexy, tender flesh. Kira overwhelmed early, pretty much belted out of her stance and comfort zone, as Demi‘s just ripping into her – hot, thick Demi‘s trying to cut her down to size! Kira usually relishing this sort of sweaty, heated inside body fight – but Demi‘s so compact, sporting extra muscles, driving n‘ pushing back the taller Kira shot by shot, as Kira‘s orderly jabs go missing, lacking Demi‘s furious early intensity! And there you go: Demi‘s working her foe over at the ropes, keeping her head well inside Kira‘s chest, fighting small, tight, hard – she‘s chugging and slugging shots in non-stop pressure, getting leggy Kira to lean back her head past the ropes, or stumble off and away on ref‘s breaks, showing hectic, panicky step-outs, back-pedals.
Less than a minute to go: Kira steps out right, lands a double jab upside Lovato‘s forehead, finally getting some room to work. Kira lunges out quickly: a jab/straight combo pushes Demi back, hits her to ropes, covering up mitts at temple, as Kira‘s baring her fangs, driving a short left/right punch across Lovato‘s wiggling rack! Hard, thick straight right, Kira – Demi slipping the shot from ropes, nudging her sidearm right into Kira‘s abs, ooomph!, then smacking Kira the overhand left to her cheek, chup! Kira‘s strong legs bend, tremble – she‘s rung up at bell, shaking off the cobwebs!
Kira sits down on her stool, breathing heavy, shaking her head to Nadia – this was an emphatic first round for Demi, no doubt, as Kira got caught often and easy, giving up plenty of body shots to her hungry tormentress!
Round 2:
Kira‘s a woman on a mission throughout early circles, trades – she‘s adamant, aggressive to get into ring control this time out. Stepping in n‘ out quickly, more rhythmically, Kira‘s doubling up her jabs, timing her foe, picking out her spots for rangy, ringing attacks to Demi‘s rounded cheeks! Tall, rhythmic poke – Kira‘s landing some beautiful punches into the smaller woman‘s cheeks, quickly stepping away and moving back out or to the sides when Lovato‘s coming in via her lunges, dodging Demi‘s gruesome body shots this round out.
Kira uses her athletic speed and taller reach cleverly, giving tight, compact Demi more problems now – a slinging double jab/right cross slams to Lovato‘s mouth, stumbling her steps, pressing her back, as Demi‘s bashed to the ropes. Lovato‘s kept in check alongside the ropes throughout first, second minute a lot – she‘s covering up (mitts at either temple), her strong, thick body showing athletic dips, rolls against Kira‘s chup-chup attacks. Kosarin going for quantity of shots instead of single-shot quality – but it‘s steady pressure, as Kira keeps her strong left hand jabs/straights right in Demi‘s face, although many shots won‘t score beyond Demi‘s alert guard, only thud to her gloves.
Half-way through the second round, Demi finally ducks a left cross, stepping out from the ropes with a crushing left forearm to Kira‘s jugs, just BUMPING her foe back in true big-girl fashion – she slides out rightward, leans back in, drilling two, short rights into Kosarin‘s abs. She‘s got Kira staggered – finishes her off with a belting, clobbering left hook to her younger foe‘s cheek, trying to brush back the momentum to herself!
Down the stretch – Kira‘s jab‘s taking over again, landing blasts upside Demi‘s ears, temple. Kira dippin‘, goin‘ low – she spits out a well-placed body punching drill, clubbing shots to Lovato‘s jugs/ribs, bull-driving her to ropes in a show of force. Demi hits cables, gets clipped a right cross on her left ear, chop!, stumbles off the ropes, walks right into Kira‘s short, straight lefty to mouth, pushing her back out into range, hopping to right herself. Girls let their hands go, as round‘s final seconds tick off – Kira landing tall, straight jabs to Demi‘s cheeks/forehead, while Demi‘s dipping, going for body shots as per her game plan!
Bell: girls turn back to respective corners – Demi bangs her gloves together, as Julie reads her the riot act. “Come on, Demi – you know you can do better, you need to get into those jugs now, get into those ribs, girl!“, she says, as Demi‘s nodding in approval, eyeing Kira hard on the opposite stool across the ring.
Round 3:
Girls shoot close upon the bell, immediately pop short, sneaky uppercuts off their laps to opposite jawline, mouths – and Demi‘s going at her foe in a brutal way! Kira trying to tap back rangy jabs off her left shoulder, stepping out in pivots – but Demi‘s weaving her way inside, using pushes, shoves to get her will on the inside! Demi crowds, trying to box Kosarin in: series of hard, left/right overhand shots SLAM to the pretty actress‘s cheeks, bashing and clubbing to keep Kira off her base, punch her out of her stance, comfort zone, toggle her head. Things get scruffy n‘ sloppy: girls use forarms to push off opponent jugs big, stuff elbows into inviting tummy or ribs, lean a shoulder into opposite rack or face – girls keep pushin‘, punchin‘, hissing with anger at unrelenting resistance!
Kira‘s trying to stay the bigger girl on top, but she‘s coming up short against Demi‘s rugged, muscular inside work – short, shrug uppercuts with Demi‘s full hips, weight behind her!
Mid-round: slowly yet thorougly, Demi‘s working a shocked, groaning Kira to the ropes – more stuffy uppercuts to Kira‘s tummy rough the young beauty up. Lovato dipping from left-to-right, and right-to-left, and she‘s working non-stop: wild yet controlled crosses or hooks belt at Kira‘s skull/guard, overtaking her output, sitting her ropeward with an open mouth, full lips pouting pretty in shock! Short, right uppercut to the chin, Demi – wild, blasting shot knocks back Kira‘s head, shipping her starboard, sends her butt onto the ropes. Demi‘s got Kira back-pedalled, torso swaying a bit, and she‘s the one going big-girl on her foe, pounding her flanks so flat, so hard – Kosarin‘s forced to clinch, tying up tiredly around Demi‘s ample hips and jugs, as girls stumble off the ropes.
Girls grapple for a long ref‘s break – when pulled apart by ref and separated, Kira‘s just a little quicker, sneaking a long jab square onto Lovato‘s nose, earning trickles of blood from her nostrils! Kira trying to paste ‘em there now – she throws short, shrug uppercuts that toss and hunt for Demi‘s nose, as Lovato‘s stepping out, leaning away.
Down the stretch: girls circle, prey on each other – Kira a-steamin‘, bashing series of straight punches to Lovato‘s gloves, making Demi hop around to ropes/turnbuckles. Bell: girls just pretty much starring daggers at each other – Demi wipes off her bloody nose, ready for Julie to patch her up inside corner, as opposite Kira‘s frustrated, bytching at Nadia for coming up short during those heavy inside slug-outs, usually the kind of territory where other girls quit under Kosarin‘s pressure. Demi‘s round close, as Kira hasn‘t been able to subdue Demi‘s rugged power so far.
Round 4:
First trade of the round‘s brutal, decisive – a short step, lean-in, Kira, and she surprises the smaller fighter with a nasty jab/right cross to knock her head backwards, as Demi‘s intro jab‘s still sailing airborne! Demi taking the shot all brawny – meaty thighs withstand the blast, but she‘s stunned! Kira steps in, shifts weight, dips right – short left jab, wide right hand to Lovato‘s left jawline, driving her girl off into baby-steps, hands held high, as thighs still vibrate with shockwaves of the blasts! Kira really laying a marker on Demi with these aggressive early combos – Lovato‘s stunned by the surge, stepping back tight and small, zipping back jabs/counters, trying to get out of dodge, walked down, stalked out by tuff Kira! You know, Kira‘s feeling her swagger here – she‘s stepping in all hands low, loosely placing them at chest or lap, getting ‘em up for blasts on range entrance, setting her feet and hopping all the time, as she‘s trying to bully Demi, get her walking to ropes, as Kira‘s fans yell, shout in support.
A minute to go – a double jab slams through Demi‘s mitts, juuuuust splitting her guard open, as Kira zings a short straight, putting Lovato‘s nose bloody again! Kira keeps on her foe, backing Demi into a corner, as Demi digs her butt atop the turnbuckle, dippin‘, rollin‘ shots in earmuff guard, swaying left to right. Toss overhand left hand, Kira – shot SLAMS across Demi‘s jaw, sending a plume of sweat, blood into the air, as Demi falls heavy into a clinch on trembly, meaty thighs, hoping to slow down Kira‘s onslaught. Kira hissin‘, snarlin‘, as girls squirm – she wants to work more.
Ref‘s break: Kira locking her stare into Demi‘s eyes, fully focused, stepping into Lovato with a short, swiping jab off her front foot, as Demi‘s already stepping back, struggling to match Kira‘s work rate – she‘s beaten back, as Kosarin‘s next short, hard right hand belts underneath her left eye, making her groan in hurt!
Down the stretch: Kira swaggering forward, hands on hips, taking wild swings at Demi just for show – she misses a left cross late, and Demi‘s ready to step back in! An overhand right checks out Kira‘s left cheek, toggles her head aside a bit – Demi goes into a crouch, slams a nasty left to Kira‘s ribs, forcing hectic retreats from a huffy, surprised Kira!
Bell: girls storm back to corners in no-nonsense fashion this time out. Kira smiling, but breathing heavy – she‘s still all grins, as Nadia‘s praising her fight lust. Demi needs more patch-up work on her nose, as Julie‘s trying to calm down an angry, stern-faced Lovato, focus her on the basics for next round.
Round 5:
Girls wade back into brutal, stormy exchanges mid-ring – punches fly, toss.
Demi wide-eyed, fiery, explosive – there‘s no way she wants to get caught flat-footed, passive again! Girls blast out a fast, messy sequence of left/right, left/right shock-n‘-awe punches to opposite jugs or cheeks, going tit-for-tat (literally!), as they stoop, dip, blast out shots. And it‘s Kira who‘s stepping out SO rickety from the sequence!
Kosarin lands a few clipping shots to Demi‘s ears during the shoot-out, ringing Lovato‘s buttocks – but amidst all the messy, confusing two-way smites and slaps, the slow-motion replay will show a swift left uppercut go knock-knock to Kira‘s pretty right cheek! Just a short gap opens up inside the exchange, and Demi‘s sneaking her left forearm in there, firing off nasty shots in that upward trajectory – she makes Kira‘s beautiful face eat her shots! Oh no, she‘s putting a jackhammer paste to Kira‘s pinkish cheeks! Yelps of hurt, groans, as the sweat‘s a-flyin‘ off her head – Kira‘s raising her hands, trying to both crouch and step out from the freaking harm, as Demi‘s going all bully on her!
Kosarin hits ropes in complete disarray – she ducks low, seemingly trying to clinch around Demi‘s hips, no, she‘s grazing Demi‘s hairline via a rising jab/straight right hand upside Lovato‘s head! Demi‘s right hand just sails out back – now her eyes go blank for a freaking nano-second! Demi falters chest-first into the ropes, almost tumbling out of the ring, as her legs, muscles spasm, then firm up – Kira‘s already pedaled out, hands on hips, propping up against opposite ropes, as girls stumble around all hazy-eyed for a bit! Demi‘s the first to step to her opponent again, her eyes hardening with MORE fight lust – and she‘s cutting off the ring!
Kira taking more back-pedals via her impressive footwork, doing a lil‘ crouchin‘, bobbin‘ - but she‘s definitely out of her comfort zone! Demi leans in, lands another beautiful overhand right hand to side of Kira‘s head – and the K.O. Kid‘s back on the ropes! Demi dipping, weaving from side to side – she‘s pressing the younger woman back with a short, explosive flurry of mean body hooks and crosses that‘s got Kira groaning, grimacing, as Demi‘s taking her fists for a rhythmic drumbeat across Kira‘s lovely, flat, toned abs!
Final minute – girls wrap up in plenty of tight, messy clinches around each other‘s heads/necks/shoulders. Demi the active, more willing fighter in these exchanges, as Kira‘s just hanging on, clinching to stop Demi‘s body assault, trying to get a free breath in – Lovato‘s all wiggles and squirms, trying hard to break her body free, constantly shoving her left forearm under the taller girl‘s jaw, just a-trying to get a slug home there! Ref‘s breaf – the ref wants Demi to stick to boxing, not her schoolyard bully rules, issung a stern warning to hot brunette!
Last twenty seconds tick off – Kira walking Demi into some stiff, leggy jabs, boxing off her back foot during her back-pedals, but this won‘t change the round being a Demi shutout in convincing fashion! Bell – ref immediately steps between girls with a concerned lunge, as girls still pound away for shots after the bell, tempers flaring up out of control!
Round 6:
Girls hurt, aching after flabbergasting exchange of heavy shots the round before – some moments of leggy, cautious calm ensue. Kira working the textbook: tall, rangy, mobile stance – pinging a jab off her left shoulder, sliding out right, trying to use her footwork more effectively, working via height, reach. Demi exhausted, too, as she‘s battled her heart out last round – she‘s struggling to make much of an impact during the opening minute, only drumming some rangy body hooks to Kira‘s abs, often pelted hard, straight shots to either ear/side-skull when she‘s trying to bob in n‘ attack.
A minute in, Kira‘s catching MORE Demi, committing into shots off her jabs – she takes a sidestep around the fellow brunette‘s tossing overhand right, counter-slamming a jab/right hook to Lovato‘s face, reddening it nicely. Demi raising her hands to protect herself more – Kira rolls, POUNDS a short, drilling jab to Demi‘s nose, jolting that head back. Lovato steps out, hands low, eyes moist – all of a sudden, she‘s vulnerable! Demi out of sorts, steps into wrong ranges, mid-judges distances, eats shots despite a tight guard – she‘s rolling out back, hands at temple, retreating into crouches, covering up with her mitts at eyes, as Kira steps in, firing off salvoes across Demi‘s hunched frame/head.
Late second minute: Kira feints her straight left, gets Lovato to twitch n‘ react at the wrong moment – she steps past Demi‘s lunging lil‘ jab, jerks the right hook upside Demi‘s temple, boom! And Kira ruuusshes her girl to ropes, bumpin‘ shoulders, sluggin‘ Demi left, right, left, right – overwhelming her at the ropes. Demi‘s violently jolted atop the ropes, her eyes wide open, lips an outraged pout, looking a lil‘ dizzy, trying to dip n‘ roll the shots, get a grip around Kosarin‘s hips for a break. Down the stretch – Demi shaken up, backed up to the ropes again, as Kira‘s tossing a flurry of punches. Demi clinching up late – girls strain buttocks, press back, just mumbling at each other, their heads atop opposite shoulders, as lithe bantam bodies squirm and compete for inches of canvas.
Break: Lookout‘s corner‘s working hard to patch Demi up, trying to clear her vision from a nasty eyebrow cut – and Julie Benz‘s adamant, “You gotta hurt the kid quickly, walk her into a haymaker – anything, Demi!“ Meanwhile opposite the ring, Kira leans her head/back against the turnbuckle in exhaustion, her ample breasts heaving up and down every time she takes a breath, rubbing her abs, suddenly grinning at Nadia: “I‘m a badass, Nads!“ Nadia Bjorlin breaks into a laugh – “Hell yes, you are, girl!“
Round 7:
Demi‘s eyes still determined – her legs are shot, exhausted. Demi immediately slides out back upon bell, hands at temples, swaying those hips, leaning out of Kira‘s authoritative intro jabs. Kira‘s eyes widen, fascinated with Demi‘s queasy steps, defense – she‘s feinting, dancing, stepping into her textbook jabs/hard right crosses. Demi takes big, angry hops to ropes/corners, still trying to get some range on Kira‘s poking lefts – Kira‘s picking her out in sports, splashing a forearm into her jugs, shifting back, bull-driving the right hand into Lovato‘s gut/trunk, and now Demi‘s sick, ashen-faced! From ropes: wild, booming shots, Demi – the strong-bodied brunette‘s taking wild, desperate measures here, hoping to wick away momentum with her sturdy, lusty haymakers. Kira making sure those zinging, hissing shots don‘t pound her silly – head dips, hip rolls will do the job!
Hardly a minute inside the action, Demi‘s next sloshing right haymaker goes missing past Kira‘s ducking head, as Lovato‘s back‘s still trapped ropeward, faltering a little as her punch only hits air – Kira leans in, POUNCES! A short left hook busts up Demi‘s nose, a palms-down forearm shove to the jugs pushes Demi upright into a stiff, rigid stance, her hands sinking to lap – KIRA LANDS TWO HOOKS ON THE BUTTON! Quick double hook to mouth sends Demi‘s gumshield a-flying, topples her against the ropes, as strong legs finally fail their job! Big, strong Demi topples to her back – and there‘s the THUD! Brunette‘s legs stretch out in square angle across from ropes, as arms flop over her head, head lolling – dang, she‘s out cold! Ref duly checking her out, waves the fight off – shrieks of triumph, Kira Kosarin, as she‘s the KO7 victress!
Winner: Kira Kosarin KO Round 7
After:
What a picture-perfect knockout!
Kira‘s really leveled Demi there with her double hook attack, and now she‘s taking a sexy, confident jog to the neutral corner, immediately mounting the bottom ropeline, blowing kisses to her fans as they all stand to cheer her! Julie‘s quickly inside the ring, taking smelling salts to her protegé, as Demi‘s gently brought around in stages. The ring doctor waves for a stretcher, as Demi‘s still buzzed by the knockout, but Demi dismisses him, making it back to her corner on her own, propped up on Julie‘s shoulders, wiping away a little tear.
As all that commotion‘s going on, Kira hugs her coach Nadia in her corner – a big, beaming smile on her marked up face, delighting in proving her superiority over Demi in back-to-back wins. Nadia kisses her girl‘s left cheek, telling her: “I wish I had a stable full of fighters like to train!“, making Kira giggle. Meanwhile, Demi‘s slowly getting back to her old self, as she‘s seated on her stool, arms on her legs, her head down, shaking it in defiance. Kira nods at her, as girls exchange a thumbs up, making sure she‘s all right – just goes to show you that Kira can be a pretty sweet lady, even though she‘s one of the nastiest opponents in the ring! “Don‘t let Kira into your head, girl,“ Julie whispers to her. “You had her helpless, and you‘ll get her helpless again, and for good!“
The referee finally waves Kira over, so she can get her hand raised for victory, beaming that smile, as Nadia puts a Santa‘s hat on her head. And Kira exudes a pose of dominance, her left hand on hip, right arm lifted in triumph. Kira and Nadia take a lap of honour, as the crowd‘s applauding her, and Kira‘s blowing kisses everywhere. What are her plans for 2020, she‘s asked: “Well, this is an early Christmas present, no doubt – but my new year‘s resolution‘s about taking the title, from Bella or anyone!“, Kira smiles.
Kira and Nadia still have plenty of fun as they leave the ring, exchanging the Santa‘s hat during giggles and shout-outs to their fans. Later, Kira‘s placed in an ice bath for a short post-fight sit-down with reporters, saying slily: “Can‘t wait to watch our leader ‘Manda pummel poor Kate Upton all over the ring later tonight – I think she‘ll send her down for the count early so we can all get to Bonzo‘s Christmas party fast!“

Intro:
Now it‘s time for our first big marquee match of the evening!
Kira Kosarin and Demi Lovato are two of the division‘s hottest, most popular stars and when they last fought in November 2019, Kira eked out a close KO win over her rival. This time they they step foot inside the legendary Madison Square Garden to see who of them‘s the best right now. Back in November 2019, both women came out with their guns a-blazin‘, showcasing their different style and mentality in the ring, until Kira summoned that little bit of extra magic, pounding Demi out in the eighth round via an left uppercut that swept Lovato off her feet for good.
Just over a year later, both of these proud, pretty brunettes can‘t wait to get back into the ring against each other, sniping at and provoking each other with little tidbits for their armies of social media followers. Demi let Kira know that it was about time for “#retributation2020 – no silly luck for Kira this time!“ Kira replied with a video from her own training camp, adding that “Demi, darling: you can mouth off all you want, but let‘s get real, please – I‘m fitter, stronger and tougher than you! I‘m simply a better all-around fighter than you could ever dream to be – I‘m just #simplythebest“
Both women appeared separately on the FCBA Network set with host Lucy Liu getting a few words from them. Kira was up first, wearing a gorgeous little black dress and matching heels, her stunning smile on display, excited to meet a living fighter‘s legend like Lucy:
“She‘s been through a lot, and Demi‘s a true fighter – I will give her that,“ Kira admits when asked about her upcoming foe after exchanging pleasantries with Lucy for a while. “But she‘s already had her shot at me – and you know what, I slugged her ass out! I‘ve already proven that I‘m better than her! All pressure‘s on Demi now – she‘ll have to prove that *she* is good enough to step into the friggin‘ ring with *me*, and I‘ll tell you a secret, folks – she‘s not!“, Kira says, grinning that sly, confident smile of hers.
Of course, fortunes have recently turned a bit sour for hungry, ambitious Kira herself, so spoiled by success in her young, flashing career so far. She‘s stormed to the bantamweight straps early in the year, after three failing bids at the title before. Then sudden whammies started to hit all over the place – first, a last second KO title loss to brutal, relentless rival redhead Bella Thorne...second, Lizzie Olsen knocked her out hard...third, rookie Samara Weaving came, pasting Kira out to sleep in a shocking JMD upset that had pundits gasping in utter surprise. Of course, Kira did since come back with a strong showing against smart, veteran Kat Dennings, but how confident is Kira after three straight losses, the bantam title stripped off her waist by her signature rival early in the year?
“Trust me: I will win that title back!“, a serious, no-nonsense Kira shares her thoughts with Lucy. “There‘s no way I will ever accept Bella‘s superiority in the ring. I know things haven‘t run smoothly since then but I have already shown that I can run this division, right? I‘m only 23 – and I‘ve got the skills and dedication to win multiple titles. I‘ll frustrate, show up and pound out girls for years to come! You know, I‘m the one who‘ll always be there to dash your bantam dreams, girls!“
Demi was next up in the hot seat. She wore a red t-shirt with jeans and red high heels, hugging Lucy as they talk about how the other is doing, Lucy patting Demi on her left shoulder before they sit down. For Lovato herself, 2020‘s not been a good year. She‘s long been a dominant factor at bantam, so going from 11-4 (2019) to 2-4 (2020) is a surprising turn of event for Lookout‘s prime bantam slugger:
“That‘s true, Lucy,“ Demi admits, yet holding her head up high. “I‘m a little horrified by it myself. You know me well, Lucy, I was a rosy-cheeked kid trying to make a name for herself, and you‘d always come and talk to me after fights, giving me advice and showing me support. You‘re the best, Lucy! So you know I‘ve fought much worse in my life than losing streaks – I‘m a fighter! I‘m just all out tough – this is simply a set-back for me to overcome, and I know I can overcome anything!“, she says, noticing Lucy nodding in approval.
The subject next turns to her opponent Kira, and Demi‘s asked about their first fight:
“I showed her too much respect in the ring, as weird as that sounds,“ Demi admits. “You know, she‘s a brazen, sassy girl with a special brand of confidence – and she was trying to get in my head and all, making comments about me not making weight for the fight, and so on. I just couldn‘t get the right focus in the ring – so she caught me with some good shots, and before I knew I was on my back counting how many lights there were on the ceiling“, she laughs, trying to break the tension in the room.
“This time, trust me – I‘m ready. Most importantly, I‘m fitter than ever – Kira‘s going to be in the ring with a freakin‘ pitbull who‘ll latch, rip and bite away at her all friggin‘ night! I‘ve been looking at what Samara‘s done to her on JMD – and it‘s opened my eyes a bit! Kira‘s just a pretty bully – and now I‘m here to take her fighter‘s soul! I know she will collapse to the canvas when my freakin‘ pressure‘s coming strongly! She thinks she can just look down on me? Trust me – I‘m about to teach her some respect, *my* boot on *her* flat chest!“, she says sternly, sharing a warm embrace with Lucy, as the hall of famer‘s wishing her all the best of luck.
And now it‘s time for fight night!
Kira comes out first with Nadia Bjorlin beside her. The two women look calm and confident, as they walk down the aisle – a relaxed, smiling Kira fist-bumps a few members of the front row, clearly trying to give the impression that she‘s only fighting some sort of tune-up journey girl instead of the elite, dangerous marquee fighter Demi actually is.
The beautiful actress steps into the ring wearing a metallic-blue sports bra, metallic-blue trunks with two yellow thunder bolts running up the sides of the legs, “The K.O. Kid“ printed in silver letters across it, metallic-blue boots, yellow gloves, her hair tied into a ponytail, bowing to each side of the ring, jogging to her corner and ready to limber up.
Now Demi‘s pushing through the curtain, walking down the aisle to the ring with a purpose, her eyes set firmly and only on the ring. This fight definitely means a lot to her, and she‘s got revenge on her mind, as Julie Benz follows behind her. The stunning singer climbs into the ring wearing a black sports bra with white trim, matching trunks and boots, white gloves with black thumbs, her hair tied into a braid, jogging over to her corner right away, all hard-eyed, no-nonsense, bouncing on her toes, throwing deadly, confident stares at a relaxed, nonchalant, grinning Kosarin.
The referee waves the fighters together, as she‘s going through his final instructions. The two pretty, strong fighters lock their eyes into an intense stare down – and the tension in the ring‘s clear for all to see, the crowd hushing, watching these two closely to see what happens. No drama so far as girls are focussed about the upcoming fight – girls touch gloves, making a heavy slap of leather, as gloves thud to opposite gloves, and girl take a jog back to corners, listening to their fans‘s chants, getting ready for ten rounds of PRIME bantamweight action, fists up, chests out, heads up high.
Round 1:
Girls display trademark polar opposite styles, as they start off the fight – Kira‘s more upright, boxing tall from her textbook stance, pivoting left around her jabs – Demi‘s wild, aggressive, sloshing that upper bod around, stepping or leaning into Kira to close the distance. Girls trade quick, vicious jabs for early control – Kira being tall, grazing Demi‘s lovely cheeks, streaking her hairline via tasty, early jabs to get a feel on her foe. Kosarin using a safe distance, stepping out left/right after her jabs, weaving tall from side to side, her arms and stance relaxed, smooth, so confident. Demi‘s eyes are wide, focused, concentrated on timing, reading gaps: a jab gets slipped, and she catches Kira a thumping little right hook upside the trunks/ribs, moving up close, as Kira humps up, goes ooof!
Lovato lands short hup-hup belts, BASHES across Kira‘s frame/flanks, staying tight n‘ compact, churning Kira‘s sexy, tender flesh. Kira overwhelmed early, pretty much belted out of her stance and comfort zone, as Demi‘s just ripping into her – hot, thick Demi‘s trying to cut her down to size! Kira usually relishing this sort of sweaty, heated inside body fight – but Demi‘s so compact, sporting extra muscles, driving n‘ pushing back the taller Kira shot by shot, as Kira‘s orderly jabs go missing, lacking Demi‘s furious early intensity! And there you go: Demi‘s working her foe over at the ropes, keeping her head well inside Kira‘s chest, fighting small, tight, hard – she‘s chugging and slugging shots in non-stop pressure, getting leggy Kira to lean back her head past the ropes, or stumble off and away on ref‘s breaks, showing hectic, panicky step-outs, back-pedals.
Less than a minute to go: Kira steps out right, lands a double jab upside Lovato‘s forehead, finally getting some room to work. Kira lunges out quickly: a jab/straight combo pushes Demi back, hits her to ropes, covering up mitts at temple, as Kira‘s baring her fangs, driving a short left/right punch across Lovato‘s wiggling rack! Hard, thick straight right, Kira – Demi slipping the shot from ropes, nudging her sidearm right into Kira‘s abs, ooomph!, then smacking Kira the overhand left to her cheek, chup! Kira‘s strong legs bend, tremble – she‘s rung up at bell, shaking off the cobwebs!
Kira sits down on her stool, breathing heavy, shaking her head to Nadia – this was an emphatic first round for Demi, no doubt, as Kira got caught often and easy, giving up plenty of body shots to her hungry tormentress!
Round 2:
Kira‘s a woman on a mission throughout early circles, trades – she‘s adamant, aggressive to get into ring control this time out. Stepping in n‘ out quickly, more rhythmically, Kira‘s doubling up her jabs, timing her foe, picking out her spots for rangy, ringing attacks to Demi‘s rounded cheeks! Tall, rhythmic poke – Kira‘s landing some beautiful punches into the smaller woman‘s cheeks, quickly stepping away and moving back out or to the sides when Lovato‘s coming in via her lunges, dodging Demi‘s gruesome body shots this round out.
Kira uses her athletic speed and taller reach cleverly, giving tight, compact Demi more problems now – a slinging double jab/right cross slams to Lovato‘s mouth, stumbling her steps, pressing her back, as Demi‘s bashed to the ropes. Lovato‘s kept in check alongside the ropes throughout first, second minute a lot – she‘s covering up (mitts at either temple), her strong, thick body showing athletic dips, rolls against Kira‘s chup-chup attacks. Kosarin going for quantity of shots instead of single-shot quality – but it‘s steady pressure, as Kira keeps her strong left hand jabs/straights right in Demi‘s face, although many shots won‘t score beyond Demi‘s alert guard, only thud to her gloves.
Half-way through the second round, Demi finally ducks a left cross, stepping out from the ropes with a crushing left forearm to Kira‘s jugs, just BUMPING her foe back in true big-girl fashion – she slides out rightward, leans back in, drilling two, short rights into Kosarin‘s abs. She‘s got Kira staggered – finishes her off with a belting, clobbering left hook to her younger foe‘s cheek, trying to brush back the momentum to herself!
Down the stretch – Kira‘s jab‘s taking over again, landing blasts upside Demi‘s ears, temple. Kira dippin‘, goin‘ low – she spits out a well-placed body punching drill, clubbing shots to Lovato‘s jugs/ribs, bull-driving her to ropes in a show of force. Demi hits cables, gets clipped a right cross on her left ear, chop!, stumbles off the ropes, walks right into Kira‘s short, straight lefty to mouth, pushing her back out into range, hopping to right herself. Girls let their hands go, as round‘s final seconds tick off – Kira landing tall, straight jabs to Demi‘s cheeks/forehead, while Demi‘s dipping, going for body shots as per her game plan!
Bell: girls turn back to respective corners – Demi bangs her gloves together, as Julie reads her the riot act. “Come on, Demi – you know you can do better, you need to get into those jugs now, get into those ribs, girl!“, she says, as Demi‘s nodding in approval, eyeing Kira hard on the opposite stool across the ring.
Round 3:
Girls shoot close upon the bell, immediately pop short, sneaky uppercuts off their laps to opposite jawline, mouths – and Demi‘s going at her foe in a brutal way! Kira trying to tap back rangy jabs off her left shoulder, stepping out in pivots – but Demi‘s weaving her way inside, using pushes, shoves to get her will on the inside! Demi crowds, trying to box Kosarin in: series of hard, left/right overhand shots SLAM to the pretty actress‘s cheeks, bashing and clubbing to keep Kira off her base, punch her out of her stance, comfort zone, toggle her head. Things get scruffy n‘ sloppy: girls use forarms to push off opponent jugs big, stuff elbows into inviting tummy or ribs, lean a shoulder into opposite rack or face – girls keep pushin‘, punchin‘, hissing with anger at unrelenting resistance!
Kira‘s trying to stay the bigger girl on top, but she‘s coming up short against Demi‘s rugged, muscular inside work – short, shrug uppercuts with Demi‘s full hips, weight behind her!
Mid-round: slowly yet thorougly, Demi‘s working a shocked, groaning Kira to the ropes – more stuffy uppercuts to Kira‘s tummy rough the young beauty up. Lovato dipping from left-to-right, and right-to-left, and she‘s working non-stop: wild yet controlled crosses or hooks belt at Kira‘s skull/guard, overtaking her output, sitting her ropeward with an open mouth, full lips pouting pretty in shock! Short, right uppercut to the chin, Demi – wild, blasting shot knocks back Kira‘s head, shipping her starboard, sends her butt onto the ropes. Demi‘s got Kira back-pedalled, torso swaying a bit, and she‘s the one going big-girl on her foe, pounding her flanks so flat, so hard – Kosarin‘s forced to clinch, tying up tiredly around Demi‘s ample hips and jugs, as girls stumble off the ropes.
Girls grapple for a long ref‘s break – when pulled apart by ref and separated, Kira‘s just a little quicker, sneaking a long jab square onto Lovato‘s nose, earning trickles of blood from her nostrils! Kira trying to paste ‘em there now – she throws short, shrug uppercuts that toss and hunt for Demi‘s nose, as Lovato‘s stepping out, leaning away.
Down the stretch: girls circle, prey on each other – Kira a-steamin‘, bashing series of straight punches to Lovato‘s gloves, making Demi hop around to ropes/turnbuckles. Bell: girls just pretty much starring daggers at each other – Demi wipes off her bloody nose, ready for Julie to patch her up inside corner, as opposite Kira‘s frustrated, bytching at Nadia for coming up short during those heavy inside slug-outs, usually the kind of territory where other girls quit under Kosarin‘s pressure. Demi‘s round close, as Kira hasn‘t been able to subdue Demi‘s rugged power so far.
Round 4:
First trade of the round‘s brutal, decisive – a short step, lean-in, Kira, and she surprises the smaller fighter with a nasty jab/right cross to knock her head backwards, as Demi‘s intro jab‘s still sailing airborne! Demi taking the shot all brawny – meaty thighs withstand the blast, but she‘s stunned! Kira steps in, shifts weight, dips right – short left jab, wide right hand to Lovato‘s left jawline, driving her girl off into baby-steps, hands held high, as thighs still vibrate with shockwaves of the blasts! Kira really laying a marker on Demi with these aggressive early combos – Lovato‘s stunned by the surge, stepping back tight and small, zipping back jabs/counters, trying to get out of dodge, walked down, stalked out by tuff Kira! You know, Kira‘s feeling her swagger here – she‘s stepping in all hands low, loosely placing them at chest or lap, getting ‘em up for blasts on range entrance, setting her feet and hopping all the time, as she‘s trying to bully Demi, get her walking to ropes, as Kira‘s fans yell, shout in support.
A minute to go – a double jab slams through Demi‘s mitts, juuuuust splitting her guard open, as Kira zings a short straight, putting Lovato‘s nose bloody again! Kira keeps on her foe, backing Demi into a corner, as Demi digs her butt atop the turnbuckle, dippin‘, rollin‘ shots in earmuff guard, swaying left to right. Toss overhand left hand, Kira – shot SLAMS across Demi‘s jaw, sending a plume of sweat, blood into the air, as Demi falls heavy into a clinch on trembly, meaty thighs, hoping to slow down Kira‘s onslaught. Kira hissin‘, snarlin‘, as girls squirm – she wants to work more.
Ref‘s break: Kira locking her stare into Demi‘s eyes, fully focused, stepping into Lovato with a short, swiping jab off her front foot, as Demi‘s already stepping back, struggling to match Kira‘s work rate – she‘s beaten back, as Kosarin‘s next short, hard right hand belts underneath her left eye, making her groan in hurt!
Down the stretch: Kira swaggering forward, hands on hips, taking wild swings at Demi just for show – she misses a left cross late, and Demi‘s ready to step back in! An overhand right checks out Kira‘s left cheek, toggles her head aside a bit – Demi goes into a crouch, slams a nasty left to Kira‘s ribs, forcing hectic retreats from a huffy, surprised Kira!
Bell: girls storm back to corners in no-nonsense fashion this time out. Kira smiling, but breathing heavy – she‘s still all grins, as Nadia‘s praising her fight lust. Demi needs more patch-up work on her nose, as Julie‘s trying to calm down an angry, stern-faced Lovato, focus her on the basics for next round.
Round 5:
Girls wade back into brutal, stormy exchanges mid-ring – punches fly, toss.
Demi wide-eyed, fiery, explosive – there‘s no way she wants to get caught flat-footed, passive again! Girls blast out a fast, messy sequence of left/right, left/right shock-n‘-awe punches to opposite jugs or cheeks, going tit-for-tat (literally!), as they stoop, dip, blast out shots. And it‘s Kira who‘s stepping out SO rickety from the sequence!
Kosarin lands a few clipping shots to Demi‘s ears during the shoot-out, ringing Lovato‘s buttocks – but amidst all the messy, confusing two-way smites and slaps, the slow-motion replay will show a swift left uppercut go knock-knock to Kira‘s pretty right cheek! Just a short gap opens up inside the exchange, and Demi‘s sneaking her left forearm in there, firing off nasty shots in that upward trajectory – she makes Kira‘s beautiful face eat her shots! Oh no, she‘s putting a jackhammer paste to Kira‘s pinkish cheeks! Yelps of hurt, groans, as the sweat‘s a-flyin‘ off her head – Kira‘s raising her hands, trying to both crouch and step out from the freaking harm, as Demi‘s going all bully on her!
Kosarin hits ropes in complete disarray – she ducks low, seemingly trying to clinch around Demi‘s hips, no, she‘s grazing Demi‘s hairline via a rising jab/straight right hand upside Lovato‘s head! Demi‘s right hand just sails out back – now her eyes go blank for a freaking nano-second! Demi falters chest-first into the ropes, almost tumbling out of the ring, as her legs, muscles spasm, then firm up – Kira‘s already pedaled out, hands on hips, propping up against opposite ropes, as girls stumble around all hazy-eyed for a bit! Demi‘s the first to step to her opponent again, her eyes hardening with MORE fight lust – and she‘s cutting off the ring!
Kira taking more back-pedals via her impressive footwork, doing a lil‘ crouchin‘, bobbin‘ - but she‘s definitely out of her comfort zone! Demi leans in, lands another beautiful overhand right hand to side of Kira‘s head – and the K.O. Kid‘s back on the ropes! Demi dipping, weaving from side to side – she‘s pressing the younger woman back with a short, explosive flurry of mean body hooks and crosses that‘s got Kira groaning, grimacing, as Demi‘s taking her fists for a rhythmic drumbeat across Kira‘s lovely, flat, toned abs!
Final minute – girls wrap up in plenty of tight, messy clinches around each other‘s heads/necks/shoulders. Demi the active, more willing fighter in these exchanges, as Kira‘s just hanging on, clinching to stop Demi‘s body assault, trying to get a free breath in – Lovato‘s all wiggles and squirms, trying hard to break her body free, constantly shoving her left forearm under the taller girl‘s jaw, just a-trying to get a slug home there! Ref‘s breaf – the ref wants Demi to stick to boxing, not her schoolyard bully rules, issung a stern warning to hot brunette!
Last twenty seconds tick off – Kira walking Demi into some stiff, leggy jabs, boxing off her back foot during her back-pedals, but this won‘t change the round being a Demi shutout in convincing fashion! Bell – ref immediately steps between girls with a concerned lunge, as girls still pound away for shots after the bell, tempers flaring up out of control!
Round 6:
Girls hurt, aching after flabbergasting exchange of heavy shots the round before – some moments of leggy, cautious calm ensue. Kira working the textbook: tall, rangy, mobile stance – pinging a jab off her left shoulder, sliding out right, trying to use her footwork more effectively, working via height, reach. Demi exhausted, too, as she‘s battled her heart out last round – she‘s struggling to make much of an impact during the opening minute, only drumming some rangy body hooks to Kira‘s abs, often pelted hard, straight shots to either ear/side-skull when she‘s trying to bob in n‘ attack.
A minute in, Kira‘s catching MORE Demi, committing into shots off her jabs – she takes a sidestep around the fellow brunette‘s tossing overhand right, counter-slamming a jab/right hook to Lovato‘s face, reddening it nicely. Demi raising her hands to protect herself more – Kira rolls, POUNDS a short, drilling jab to Demi‘s nose, jolting that head back. Lovato steps out, hands low, eyes moist – all of a sudden, she‘s vulnerable! Demi out of sorts, steps into wrong ranges, mid-judges distances, eats shots despite a tight guard – she‘s rolling out back, hands at temple, retreating into crouches, covering up with her mitts at eyes, as Kira steps in, firing off salvoes across Demi‘s hunched frame/head.
Late second minute: Kira feints her straight left, gets Lovato to twitch n‘ react at the wrong moment – she steps past Demi‘s lunging lil‘ jab, jerks the right hook upside Demi‘s temple, boom! And Kira ruuusshes her girl to ropes, bumpin‘ shoulders, sluggin‘ Demi left, right, left, right – overwhelming her at the ropes. Demi‘s violently jolted atop the ropes, her eyes wide open, lips an outraged pout, looking a lil‘ dizzy, trying to dip n‘ roll the shots, get a grip around Kosarin‘s hips for a break. Down the stretch – Demi shaken up, backed up to the ropes again, as Kira‘s tossing a flurry of punches. Demi clinching up late – girls strain buttocks, press back, just mumbling at each other, their heads atop opposite shoulders, as lithe bantam bodies squirm and compete for inches of canvas.
Break: Lookout‘s corner‘s working hard to patch Demi up, trying to clear her vision from a nasty eyebrow cut – and Julie Benz‘s adamant, “You gotta hurt the kid quickly, walk her into a haymaker – anything, Demi!“ Meanwhile opposite the ring, Kira leans her head/back against the turnbuckle in exhaustion, her ample breasts heaving up and down every time she takes a breath, rubbing her abs, suddenly grinning at Nadia: “I‘m a badass, Nads!“ Nadia Bjorlin breaks into a laugh – “Hell yes, you are, girl!“
Round 7:
Demi‘s eyes still determined – her legs are shot, exhausted. Demi immediately slides out back upon bell, hands at temples, swaying those hips, leaning out of Kira‘s authoritative intro jabs. Kira‘s eyes widen, fascinated with Demi‘s queasy steps, defense – she‘s feinting, dancing, stepping into her textbook jabs/hard right crosses. Demi takes big, angry hops to ropes/corners, still trying to get some range on Kira‘s poking lefts – Kira‘s picking her out in sports, splashing a forearm into her jugs, shifting back, bull-driving the right hand into Lovato‘s gut/trunk, and now Demi‘s sick, ashen-faced! From ropes: wild, booming shots, Demi – the strong-bodied brunette‘s taking wild, desperate measures here, hoping to wick away momentum with her sturdy, lusty haymakers. Kira making sure those zinging, hissing shots don‘t pound her silly – head dips, hip rolls will do the job!
Hardly a minute inside the action, Demi‘s next sloshing right haymaker goes missing past Kira‘s ducking head, as Lovato‘s back‘s still trapped ropeward, faltering a little as her punch only hits air – Kira leans in, POUNCES! A short left hook busts up Demi‘s nose, a palms-down forearm shove to the jugs pushes Demi upright into a stiff, rigid stance, her hands sinking to lap – KIRA LANDS TWO HOOKS ON THE BUTTON! Quick double hook to mouth sends Demi‘s gumshield a-flying, topples her against the ropes, as strong legs finally fail their job! Big, strong Demi topples to her back – and there‘s the THUD! Brunette‘s legs stretch out in square angle across from ropes, as arms flop over her head, head lolling – dang, she‘s out cold! Ref duly checking her out, waves the fight off – shrieks of triumph, Kira Kosarin, as she‘s the KO7 victress!
Winner: Kira Kosarin KO Round 7
After:
What a picture-perfect knockout!
Kira‘s really leveled Demi there with her double hook attack, and now she‘s taking a sexy, confident jog to the neutral corner, immediately mounting the bottom ropeline, blowing kisses to her fans as they all stand to cheer her! Julie‘s quickly inside the ring, taking smelling salts to her protegé, as Demi‘s gently brought around in stages. The ring doctor waves for a stretcher, as Demi‘s still buzzed by the knockout, but Demi dismisses him, making it back to her corner on her own, propped up on Julie‘s shoulders, wiping away a little tear.
As all that commotion‘s going on, Kira hugs her coach Nadia in her corner – a big, beaming smile on her marked up face, delighting in proving her superiority over Demi in back-to-back wins. Nadia kisses her girl‘s left cheek, telling her: “I wish I had a stable full of fighters like to train!“, making Kira giggle. Meanwhile, Demi‘s slowly getting back to her old self, as she‘s seated on her stool, arms on her legs, her head down, shaking it in defiance. Kira nods at her, as girls exchange a thumbs up, making sure she‘s all right – just goes to show you that Kira can be a pretty sweet lady, even though she‘s one of the nastiest opponents in the ring! “Don‘t let Kira into your head, girl,“ Julie whispers to her. “You had her helpless, and you‘ll get her helpless again, and for good!“
The referee finally waves Kira over, so she can get her hand raised for victory, beaming that smile, as Nadia puts a Santa‘s hat on her head. And Kira exudes a pose of dominance, her left hand on hip, right arm lifted in triumph. Kira and Nadia take a lap of honour, as the crowd‘s applauding her, and Kira‘s blowing kisses everywhere. What are her plans for 2020, she‘s asked: “Well, this is an early Christmas present, no doubt – but my new year‘s resolution‘s about taking the title, from Bella or anyone!“, Kira smiles.
Kira and Nadia still have plenty of fun as they leave the ring, exchanging the Santa‘s hat during giggles and shout-outs to their fans. Later, Kira‘s placed in an ice bath for a short post-fight sit-down with reporters, saying slily: “Can‘t wait to watch our leader ‘Manda pummel poor Kate Upton all over the ring later tonight – I think she‘ll send her down for the count early so we can all get to Bonzo‘s Christmas party fast!“
