Intro:
The third bout in the Diamond Boxing Tournament sees a war of Sports Illustrated modelling finest, BBU welterweight champion Damaris Lewis looks to try to take the undefeated record of Danielle Herrington, both women looking to start on the front foot in this tournament, we are here in California's Fantasy Springs Casino.
They've both been said to be outsiders to win the tournament, but that didn't stop them claiming they are going to win all over their social media accounts in the build up to the fight, with their records it is hard to see why they wouldn't think like that.
Going into the contest they were both asked to give a statement on the FCBA Network about their chances, along with views on their opponent as they geared up for this fight.
First up was Damaris wearing her BBU welterweight title around her toned waist as she wore a black tank top and denim blue jeans, most likely to show off her impressive physique as she sits down on the stool with hands on her hips.
"Why I ain't already in the title race for the FCBA title I don't know, jumping through more hoops to get what I am due, I've been the best damn welterweight in the world the past twelve months, I guess I need seven more victims to be knocked out at my feet to earn the shot" Damaris says looking annoyed to say the least.
"Danielle I've never cared about you, you're just in my shadow sweetheart, that's where you are going to stay after I am through beating your ass in that ring, you are just going to be my bytch" pointing at the camera with her fight index finger, Damaris stands up as she keeps her message short and sweet to the world.
When Danielle gets interviewed she is wearing a white dress with floral patterns on, sitting down with a bemused look on her face, joking "I wish I had more opportunities like this to talk" laughing as she thinks about all the times she has done her talking in the ring.
Getting a little more serious as she still smiles, Danielle says "look I know I'm the underdog, I have barely any fights under my name, I am young and supposedly naive right? But ask those girls who thought I was easy prey, ask Hannah Davis or Katherine McPhee, they both looked down on me till I knocked them out, then they were asking what the hell happened to me" smiling more thinking about those fights.
"Now I have Damaris talking sh*t about me, I know she has a title around her waist, good for her but it ain't going to help her one bit, I am every bit as physically talented as her, every inch as tough as her, she is coming into my back yard, let's see if I let her crawl out the ring in one piece" Danielle stands up raising her right fist to the camera to give Damaris a warning what is coming for her.
Fight night, out comes Damaris with Danielle Lloyd working her corner tonight, Damaris strides out with the BBU title around her waist to boos, the New Yorker ignores it all as she acts like she owns the room with look of contempt towards the crowd.
Stepping into the ring after Lloyd helps her take off the belt, Damaris is wearing all black with her sports bra, trunks, shoes and gloves, hair tied into a ponytail as she shadow boxes into her corner, barking at her coach to look after the title, showing that Lloyd seems to be only there to simply patch her up if needed.
The crowd noise changes to a loud roar as Danielle comes out, she has her coach Jeri Ryan beside her as Danielle bounces on her toes at the top of the aisle, blowing a big kiss to the crowd before beginning her march down the aisle with a big smile.
The local lass is wearing her favourite colours, a blue sports bra with yellow trim, matching trunks and shoes, yellow gloves to match her colourful personality, her hair is braided, she climbs into the ring cupping her ears with a chuckle as the crowd seem to get louder.
The fun ends though as the fighters step together to the ring center, there's some insults and threats being exchanged, Damaris making it clear that Danielle will be kissing her feet as so many have been forced to, Danielle tactfully telling Damaris to kiss her behind as the referee stays between the fighters.
While Danielle at least wants to show her opponent respect by putting her gloves out to fist bump, Damaris simply ignores her as she turns her back on the offer, both women return to their corners with fists up, ready to go as the bell rings to start 10 rounds of welterweight action.
Round 1:
Coming out their corners with eyes locked behind their guards, they start off quickly as Damaris wants to rush the rookie, landing a few good punches to her face but missing more often then not due to the upper body movement of Herrington.
Who bangs in some nice body shots as she gets on the move, landing single punches to start through gaps in her opponent's guard, then putting more punches together as Damaris's plan is backfiring badly as Danielle is growing in confidence.
After the first half of the round goes by with no real success, Damaris puts the brakes on her charge to get more behind the guard, showing off some of her championship quality to hit the cheeks of her opponent more often now.
But Danielle soon slips under a straight to rifle in two punches to the body, using her left forearm to nudge Lewis a little off balance as she moves in swinging in uppercuts to knock back the BBU champion onto the ropes.
Where Damaris is looking to fire back as they go toe to toe, Damaris not able to light up Danielle as she'd hope because of her lack of space to move, instead finding herself retreating behind her gloves after taking a jab/straight/jab combo onto her mouth.
At the end of the round Danielle gets the crowd pumped by waving her arms in the air as she jogs back to her corner, Damaris staring at her with disdain as that was certainly not how she wanted to kick this fight off.
Round 2:
Coming out more measured this round, Damaris is finding Danielle hard to pin down as the younger fighter shows she can be nimble on her toes, while Lewis is landing more, she is being kept on the move by the quicker Herrington.
A jab/straight catches Damaris on her chin, with a wild left hook missing Danielle as Damaris shows some frustration, showing herself being outboxed by the classy rookie, who so far looks like a seasoned pro the way she is controlling the pace of the fight.
But Damaris is starting to gain traction as the round goes on, digging a few more punches into the chest of Danielle, hoping that will help her pin down the GBS fighter, who grunts out loud each time she gets hit there.
A minute left in the round, Danielle dips down to land in two hooks to the body, Damaris pulls her into a front headlock with her right arm, hammering her left illegally into the side of Herrington's body as the referee steps in to warn Damaris to keep it clean after breaking them up.
Moments later Damaris catches Danielle on her nose with a straight, then lands a left hook across her jaw as back goes Danielle to a corner, the first time really in the round she has been pinned down, luckily for her the bell rings to end the round not long after to make Damaris curse her own luck, another round down for the BBU champ.
Round 3:
Starting to get a better read on Herrington as they exchange jabs around the ring, Lewis looks laser focused as she is understanding now why Danielle is in this tournament, catching her coming inside to work with cross punches.
Still Danielle looks crisp with her punches, not wasting much energy as she is slick in her movement, throwing when she sees a clear aim at a target to make Damaris hiss out, the crowd cheering her on to success.
As they enter the second minute, Damaris parries a jab away before slamming a left cross to the cheek of her opponent, a straight follows into the forehead of Herrington to knock her back a step, the jets suddenly being opened up as Damaris sees her chance to knock back the younger fighter towards the ropes.
With not as much room to move in, Danielle is being forced to try to match the power of Damaris, it doesn't look like she can as the older fighter is laying in some hard hitting combos across her face, bashing back Danielle till she is on the ropes shelling up.
Digging in more body shots to open the gates up top, Damaris grins till Danielle surprises her with a right across her cheek, Danielle is showing her fighting spirit as she starts coming back at Lewis in the final moments of the round.
The bell rings to end proceedings with Damaris looking bugged that Danielle is giving her so much trouble, there's a little puffiness on the left cheek of Damaris as she sits down, barking at her coach to work on it as Danielle Lloyd nods looking sheepish.
Round 4:
If Damaris had thought she had worked out the Herrington code just yet, well she learns she hasn't yet as Danielle goes into her playbook, charging at her with her head down swinging in short sharp body shots to drive Damaris back to the ropes.
Needing to use her left glove to shove back Danielle, Damaris moves off the ropes with Danielle now stalking her around, maybe sensing the frustration in the more experienced fighter, Danielle has her confused as now Damaris is working off her back foot.
It takes nearly half the round for any semblance of what pattern we had before comes back, Damaris spiking Danielle on the nose with a straight that causes blood to trickle from her nostrils, barking with effort when she follows up with a left/right cross combo to the cheeks of her opponent to drive her back.
Danielle realising it is time to get back on the bike as Damaris is now coming forwards, both drilling in stiff single punches as it becomes a game of cat and mouse, the mouse able to bat the cat on her nose several times to keep the distance she wants.
Till a straight gets knocked aside, Damaris landing another straight to the nose, then a left hook to the jaw, back to the ropes goes Danielle as Damaris shows her no mercy with a barrage of punches flying her way, some land on the guard of Herrington, several though get through clean as Lewis is throwing with real force behind her punches.
At the end of the round Damaris just about holds back as she looks to be in a rage at being schooled at times by Danielle, who wipes the blood from her nose as she returns to her corner, Jeri needing to patch her up as they talk about what Danielle needs to watch out for.
Round 5:
The nose of Danielle now has a bullseye on it as she keeps her left somewhat over it to protect it, Damaris smartly doesn't go looking for it exactly, swinging in some hooks around the guard when she isn't going to the body.
Danielle needing to open up a little more to try to ward back Damaris, both working hard in the midrange exchanges, drilling punches into cheeks as sweat starts to fly off them, both glistening under the lights showing off their magnificent bodies.
After landing a jab to the chest of Herrington, Damaris follows up with an uppercut that knocks back the head of her opponent, a straight then smacks into that nose as Danielle's guard looks to be opening up wide now.
The crowd looking a little worried as they watch Damaris starting to land with smacking combos right into the face of Danielle, who when she tries to clinch up gets shoved away by the brutal Damaris.
Into a corner Danielle is knocked into as Damaris slams in four punches clean to the face of Danielle, when the bell rings Danielle has blood dripping from her nose to her breasts, Jeri having some work to do as Danielle winces when being worked on, Damaris like a predator sensing her prey is weak is staying standing, being washed down by her coach as she stares hungrily at Danielle.
Round 6:
Looking more defensive as she comes out her corner, this is gut check time for Danielle as she throws in straight punches while trying to bob and weave her way out of trouble, slipping some punches that look like they had real mean intentions behind them.
A clubbing right to the side of her head as she crouches down opens up Danielle to a left uppercut that straightens her up, A RIGHT HOOK TO HER JAW HAS HER STUMBLING AS A LEFT TO THE CHIN SENDS DANIELLE TO HER BACK!
What a barrage from Damaris as she flexes her right arm over Danielle, referee needing to push her away to a neutral corner as tempers flare between the fighter and the referee, 1...2...3... Danielle rolls to her right side, 4...5...6.. Blood drips from her nose to the canvas as she shuts her eyes, 7...8... The crowd is yelling at her to get up, 9...10 but Danielle is too hurt, that's it for this fight!
Winner Damaris Lewis KO Round 6
After:
What a stunning finish by Damaris, she has kicked off this tournament with the all important win, while also having the added satisfaction of taking the undefeated record of Danielle here in her hometown.
Heading over to Danielle, Damaris kicks her to her back as she places her boot on the chest of the beaten woman to a hail storm of boos, Damaris heard telling Danielle "I was going to make you kiss my boot but I don't want your blood over them you pitiful bytch" stomping her boot into the left boob of Herrington to make her tear up.
"Either way all you are is a message to the other bytches that this is my tournament, you can sit and watch me win it, remember I took your record" Damaris adds as she stamps on the right boob.
Jeri finally getting into the ring to shove away Damaris from her fighter, the two bump chests as Damaris tells her to get out her way, Jeri saying to make her, which only makes Damaris laugh as she takes a step back.
"Bytch you are old enough to be my mother, I'll let you off this time but next time you try that, you are going to the hospital" Damaris threatens Jeri, who doesn't look the least bit worried about a fight, even if it is one she will most likely lose.
Some trash gets thrown at Damaris, who bats it aside as she spits insults back at the crowd, certainly she won't be exactly welcomed back into this arena on tonights showing, security saying it is probably best she leaves before she causes a riot, while Damaris looks like she'd love that, instead she leaves the ring mumbling something under her breath.
As all that is going on finally Danielle is up on her feet with help from Jeri, her head is down as she is crying, partly from the sting of defeat, partly from the punishment Damaris leveled on her tonight, Jeri telling her she'll get that bytch next time they fight as Danielle certainly did have moments tonight.
They decide to leave the ring too with Danielle holding a towel with an ice pack in against her bleeding nose, the crowd calming down somewhat as they see their fighter walk out, giving her a respectful applause but still seething over Lewis's actions tonight.
