Emily in a tight-sexy looking black string-bikini and red gloves. Saoirse relying on Irish-luck with a dark green ensemble with red gloves. Bell sounds and we’re set for 10 rounds in the Bantamweight division.
Round 1: Emily seeking to retain that same offense and stubborn streak that gave her the win over Krupa last month, hounding Saoirse with a vibrancy of jabs aimed straight at her head. Saoirse initially stunned by sheer number of jabs fired her way - some landing, but some completely off the mark due to the smaller girl’s excellent bobbing and weaving. Ronan’s counter punches not to be denied either, stiff blows come at the end of her patience, allowing Ratajkowski to eat some hard shots directly on her mouth and nose. Emily cussing, looking like her renewed road to revenge not gaining that same traction like she anticipated she would have with Krupa before. Rounds ends with good exchanges from both girls, but judges giving the round very slightly to Emily for her earlier aggression.
Round 2: Not so for the second round though, with Saoirse clearly meaning to fight back and take the round if she can. The blonde wades in strong and early, sailing under a left jab from Emily and battering the model’s body with a left-right combo, before retreating before Emily’s counter-hook to her face manages to land. The taller brunette grimacing as this pattern repeats itself a couple of times, frustration building in the form of an aching pain in her the center of her tummy. Saoirse tries for third time’s time the charm - forgetting that that mantra mainly applies to the loser’s side of the exchange - gets BLASTED across cheek with a nasty right hook for her ignorance. Crowd roars as Emily tries to capitalise on a reeling Saoirse, but Saoirse’s forearms quick to shore up her defence - rest of round only eating similar jab-jab-jabs from Ratajkowski and a snag to her exposed tummy, in a clear sticking point for the brunette, who wants revenge. Judges give both girls the points this round, but Saoirse succeeds in stemming that bleeding tide from her corner.
Round 3: Saoirse like an old, ripening Irish whiskey, getting better and better after each subsequent round. The blonde allows Ratajkowski to go on the offense early, but also allows the American to make the errors with her inaccurate, sloppy punching aimed at her tummy. Irish warrior punishes her opponent for her mistakes with hard hooks to chin and chest. Emily in trouble later in the round as nasty counter-hook wobbles her to the side and almost folds her in half around her waist, but Saoirse must be cursing herself for NOT following through with a textbook knockout to Emily’s chin, instead snaps the brunette’s head backwards with sharp but arguably still effective jab to her face. Emily groaning at sound of the bell, holding her battered nose with two hands, checking for signs of bleeding, cursing out loud to no one but herself when she finds some droplets of red.
Round 4: Crystal clear how hungry Saoirse is for the win and to eventually find a stable to call her home - Irishwoman confidently marching out of corner and RAMMING her fist into Ratajkowski’s open and exposed midsection. Emily just chalking and gawking at sudden intrusion into midsection, has some sense still to snap her fist into Saoirse’s grinning face, bringing both women back to reality. Saoirse, for some reason, keeps going after Emily’s chest in a reckless tirade - if shock and awe was the doctrine, it’s clearly working - Emily not finding any answers with fist after fist connecting with her jugs and belly - the American moaning and trying her best to cover up. Then suddenly - WILD SWING BY RATAJKOWSKI TAKES SAOIRSE’S HEAD OFF!! Good gosh - audience is wondering whether that was intentional or just a pure, reckless swing by Emily! Regardless, Saoirse looks completely shocked as her head has been thrown back, body losing its balance and tumbling down to the the canvas!! KNOCKDOWN RATAJKOWSKI?? Emily standing there, swaying on her feet, almost as stunned as the audience itself! Referee however knows his job, starts the count:
4...5… Saoirse shaking the stars from her head, back and forth, already making it to one foot.
Referee calls for the end of round immediately as Saoirse makes it up to her feet at the count of 7. Emily realizing how close she came to being on the canvas herself at the end of this round, promising herself a reset in round 5.
Round 5: Saoirse looking surprisingly defiant, slightly embarrassed even, at her knockdown in previous round. The blonde looking to defy the odds, swinging out of her corner at the sound of the bell and surprising Emily with strong hooks directed at her head! Emily grunting from heavy blows that hit her guard, responds to her opponent’s defiance with defiance of her own - banging heavy mitts onto Saoirse’s tummy, stopping the blonde on her tracks! Then, American model going up high, scrubbing her opponent’s face with short but hard lefts and rights to both cheeks. Saoirse in trouble now - her blows just not landing, defences abandoned with hands flailing in the air… Emily finally THROBS her across the face, smashing her right cheek in with a beautiful left hook… Saoirse’s eyes glaze over as she collapses back down onto her side again! Referee rushes in to begin the count, but the Irish girl’s barely made it to all fours this time, at the count of 8, and referee rings the bell in a beautiful comeback, knockout blow by Emily Ratajkowski!
Official Decision: Emily Ratajkowski defeats Saoirse Ronan via KO5!
After: Emily showing her rival immense grace, reaching down to pull Saoirse up by the hand after the results are announced. She was promised a rematch the last time they danced, and the American promises the blonde a Round 3 sometime in the future, in order to break their tie now at 1-1. Regardless of (some would say) a mixed performance by Ratajkowski, she certainly proved her naysayers wrong this time round, with another payback session signed, sealed and delivered, evident from that wide (or relieved) grin plastered all over her face.
