Avril Lavigne versus Brec Bassinger

BEFORE:
"I got totally careless last time…” Avril says first from the press table. “I got her down in the 4th but she managed to stay alive because of the stupid clock. I fucked her up again in the 5th but she lucked out again and then I got tunnel visioned and....whatever. It's not going to happen again tonight. Brec is a total creampuff and she has done nothing but lose this year. I can't believe I'm even in this position...I heard some people are even saying I’m the Underdog tonight? Pfft…” Avril rolls her eyes. “Whatever. I'm going to knock her the f*ck out tonight and prove her win was a total fluke. Just like I did with Isabela last month. And guess what bitches? It’s going to be my 50th FCBA win tonight!!! Hell yeah! This one is for my awesome fans!"

That bitter KO7 loss to Brec is clearly still on the Dollhouse star’s mind despite her attempts to make this sound like a certified win tonight, with her already announcing her 50th win prematurely. Young Brec, meanwhile - is not amused, looking as smug as she did back when these two fought in November back in 2020. The American actress grins and waves to some cheers from the back of the room, before shaking her head in Avril’s direction.

"You're so full of sh*t Av. Look, her management kinda begged me for a rematch, so I gave it to her. I don't back down from a challenge and I know she was feeling kinda humiliated by how things ended last time. She just couldn't keep up with me and ended up drooling all over the mat. Didn’t you?” Brec shoots an irritated looking Avril a smirk. “That was less than a year ago. Nothing's changed...except that Av got even older and got the snot beat out of her by Emma Roberts and even by a rookie like Ramirez, who...guess what? I beat a few months earlier. Let’s face it, I can dance circles around you, Av. She can't handle my speed and she's not very...um, intelligent? to say the least. I've been having a disappointing year yeah, but you know what...this fight is exactly what I needed to get back on track. Beating up the cockiest has-been in the division again? Sign me up! I hope you have some new tricks Av, otherwise it's going to be hella humiliating for you in there tonight. Even more than half a year ago!"

Getting out-punched is one thing, but getting out-talked brings the boil over, and both ladies almost get into an altercation on stage, with Avril continuing to mouth off insults and at one point, even lunging at Bassinger from across her manager’s arms, looking to score an early and humiliating KO on the younger actress with that swing to the head. Of course, Brec easily weaving back, just laughing along, pointing and gesturing and coming into this fight cocky after her KO7 win last time.

Fight night and Avril makes her grand entrance first, walking down the ramp with a grin to a loud reception. She’s accompanied by Electra and Loken on both sides, with the Dollhouse team following behind. The Punk-Princess has her long blonde hair tied in a messy ponytail and is wearing her usual black and hot-pink sports bra, short matching tights and a long, flowy cloak that’s fluttering down both her shoulders and left wide open down the middle of her torso. She climbs into the ring and shows disdain for the ring official by ignoring him with a frown when she’s ordered to disrobe, instead, strutting along all four sides of the ring and raising her hands high to acknowledge the fans before making her way to her corner for some last minute preparations. Up next is Brec Bassinger, the young American actress skipping down the ramp in a dark blue sports bra and pair of short black tights complete with white gloves. Bassinger showing off her slim and toned figure as she marches down the ramp towards the ring, looking ready to rumble. Looks like she certainly possesses all the physical advantages coming into this rematch, being fifteen years younger and slightly taller than the veteran Doll.

Minutes later and it looks like It's finally time to get this going, as both girls are ready in their corners. Referee gets the nod from both girls and orders for the bell to start! HERE WE GO with ten rounds of Flyweight action!

ROUND 1:
Avril can't afford to lose this fight, and it shows! The Doll is moving super cautiously about the ring in the opening seconds, only taking small jabs towards Brec’s face as the younger fighter tries to rush her down just like last time. Bassinger holds the advantage coming into this fight but she’s not that prepared to face down a more focused and steadfast Lavigne this time round, gets her face socked in over and over again by errant punches as Lavigne punishes her for her foolhardy eagerness. It’s proper revenge that Avril is scoring, if we were to count this opening round alone in the final tally, showing off what she’s learnt over the months in between by repeating those crisp shots sent into the American’s face, occasionally reaching down and under Brec’s arms to bash her to her body to finally win the round wide at the bell!

ROUND 2:
Brec seething in between the rounds, coming back looking like she means business this time. She pays Avril back with even MORE aggression and offensive tactics, taking wide swings at the Canadian singer’s head and body even though she’s far away and out of range of actually landing her punches. But the scare tactics seem to work, especially when Avril takes a grunting shot to the arms before almost getting her head blown off when Bassinger follows up with another hook to the ear, which blasts her backwards a few steps. The punch didn’t land clean, but it didn’t need to - Avril sent running scared of getting KO’ed at an even earlier time frame compared to last time, moving backwards to get clear of even more Brec firepower. Bassinger regains control of this fight in explosive fashion, but soon finds herself losing it again, bit by bit suffering the aftereffects of getting tagged on the face by Avril’s return jabs. Overall, however, the youngster still takes it close, somewhat regaining her honour.

ROUND 3:
Brec keeps up the pressure, making Avril work for every missed swing forward and then paid back with a couple of combos sent into her face from a comfortable distance. Avril can’t help but grunt as she takes another one-two combo straight to the nostrils, before ducking under to avoid a narrow hook aimed high at her forehead again. Lavigne’s quickly running out of stamina by virtue of trying to keep up with the younger, more energetic Brec, and unfortunately, Brec knows this fact as well. The PLP fighter exploits the Doll’s tiredness by striving for the KO in the third round, hounding Avril to the head whilst bunching up her tummy with straight jabs in wherever and whenever possible. Avril does manage to squeeze in some punches of her own towards the end of the round, but she’s clearly the one more worried by the direction of this fight, breathing hard and grabbing the bottle of water from her corner when the bell rings, clearly frustrated by her lack of progress.

ROUND 4:
Avril turns the tide with a low, early hook that stuns Brec to the face in the opening minute of the fourth, making the youngster pay for her insolence after exploiting her carefree nature to start! Brec was just about to roar inwards for more action, but it’s clear she’s also losing her senses bit by bit, her tired swings missing by a longer and longer margin before Avril decided to return fire with precision. BLAM! Brec left gasping and gagging, turned partially to her side, barely reforming her guard before Lavigne streaks another hook inwards to hammer her to the top of her head. Suddenly, Bassinger’s getting pushed backwards, groaning as the Doll makes her own power known to the younger fighter! Lavigne doing her best to corner Bassinger against the ropes or pressed into the turnbuckle, alternating swings at her head and body, trying to get the American to leap backwards and into the gaping trap. But Brec stays relatively nimble for now, keeps dashing away and under just in time before successfully squeezing a machine-gun round or two back into Avril’s face to close off the bell. Not the best round for Brec, but she WAS knocked down in the 4th on their last meeting, so you could say this is a decent round for the young blonde.

ROUND 5:
Brec RUSHES in at the sound of the bell, not taking no for an answer though! The PLP starlet’s doing her best to score that repeat KO and earn herself a potential title shot in the near future. She BARRELS into Lavigne with arms swinging, scoring multiple shots to the Doll’s body but her bigger attacks towards Avril’s head blocked by the close-knit arms. Avril seemingly in trouble at first, but soon, the crowd realises that the Doll is just defending herself well and enough, covering her head up before wailing back with a tight hook sent across Brec’s face here, another chopping hand buried into her midsection there. Brec gets ROCKED by another snap uppercut square to the jawline, WHICH WOBBLES HER all of a sudden! AND HERE AVRIL COMES, looking to capitalise! Brec in trouble, groaning as it’s her turn to try and fend off the rabid counter-assault! Avril walking her young rival down, landing multiple shots to her body, across the arms, before a HUGE right hook SLAMS into the side of her head, sending Bassinger keeling OFF to the side!! HUGE KNOCKDOWN FOR LAVIGNE! The crowd goes wild as Bassinger HITS the ground HARD. “Stay down b*tch!” Lavigne sneers before raising her arms and strutting to a neutral corner as a groggy Bassinger rolls to her back with a groan. It’s not looking good for the youngster folks….Brec flat on her back seeing stars and starring at the arena lights as the ref begins his count. 1…..2….3….the American blonde is barely moving, chest heaving as she lays there in shock, head spinning. 4…5…6….we all knew how explosive Lavigne could be at times and Brec is surely feeling it first hand tonight….7…8…the PLP star seems to be out of it, raising her head slightly off the mat only for it to flop back down seconds later…9….10, It’s OVER! Brec is still on her back and the ref waves the fight off! MS LAVIGNE SCORES REDEMPTION TONIGHT!

Official Decision: Avril Lavigne defeats Brec Bassinger via KO5!

AFTER:
Avril all smiles as she struts into the middle of the ring with a grin, letting the ref raise her arm high as she poses for the fans, standing right next to Bassinger’s fallen form. “50 wins bitches!!!!” Lavigne shouts, celebrating a well earned milestone. It all worked out for the Doll tonight, getting the job done considerably early, not getting dragged into the later rounds against a much younger opponent where things could easily turn dire for her, just like last time.
“Little Brec can’t get up???” Avril taunts the blonde from above as Brec can only stare up at the victorious Doll with disdain. “I told you I’ll knock your ass out, b*tch. Better luck next time! Thanks for the easy 50th!”

A giggling Lavigne is soon pushed away from her prey by the PLP team who rush in to form a circle around their wounded prospect, trying to get Bassinger to sit up. Avril doesn’t seem to mind though, too elated with her celebration, strutting to her corner to high five and hug her own team before leaving the ring minutes later, making a victory march towards the backstage to the familiar sound of the fans chanting her name. It’s a big milestone indeed for the singer who will be celebrating her 37th birthday this September (while still looking 10 years younger at least!). Lavigne has been one of the busiest boxers in the FCBA since making her comeback to the ring in 2017 and the bratty singer has surely earned the right to celebrate tonight with some hard work and dedication. Winning 50 fights in this league doesn’t come easy folks! Hopefully she can keep this up for at least a few more years…and who knows? Maybe she’ll even make it to 100.

On her way out, the singer is approached by reporters, inquiring what the blonde will be up to next month. Avril playfully taps her lips with her finger, pretending to think for a few seconds. She then turns to stare directly into the camera, her response short and sweet - “Probably kicking Vanessa Hudgen’s slutty ass!”

Sending the crowd into a frenzy with those parting words, Avril soon disappears behind the curtains, leaving us and the fans giddy with anticipation for that big upcoming showdown between long time friends turned enemies.
