Laura Pausini vs. Eliza Taylor (Results: Lookout! Words: Wiz)
BEFORE:
Taylor, for some reason, spent over half a decade on or near the top of all those "Top Indie Fighters" lists and for good reason. She won consistently as an indie, fashioning a very solid 7-5 record and giving a young Chloe Bennet all she wanted before losing in the tenth round. Still, no stables came calling...until the blonde beauty won a contract with GBS. And, there's no doubt she wants to take full advantage of the opportunity. "People don't realize," Taylor says, "How hard I had to work to get here. And, I'll work even harder to stay here."
As for Pausini, the only word that comes to mind is "disaster". A solid if unspectacular BBU fighter earlier in her career, the Italian has found absolutely ZERO success in the FCBA, sporting an unbelievable 0-24 record. But, Laura believes that ends tonight. "I've been close," the brunette says with a smile. "Just haven't been able to finish girls. But, tonight, I'll get that done."
ROUND ONE:
Nothing artistic about this. Blonde and brunette simply gather in the middle of the ring and begin banging away. Both Laura and Eliza are plenty sturdy and both have power, so it's not a surprise that this is the fight plan. What MIGHT be a surprise is how aggressive both women are this early in the fight. They're digging body, but also sitting down on almost everything, winging away to the head, working at a high rate, and not taking a single step back despite all the heavy leather. It's like each fighter is daring the other to be the first to blink. But, nobody's blinking and everybody's slugging. Nobody's hurt, but both fighters are feeling this heavy leather, especially the work to ribs and tummy. When the bell finally rings, blonde and brunette are shining with sweat and Pausini has claimed the points narrowly to lead 10-9.
ROUND TWO:
Blonde and brunette right back at it, banging away to head and body with both hands. Everybody committing on everything, all in an effort to impose will, get her rival backing up. But, neither can manage the feat. Instead, they stay in the phone booth, hooking, upper cutting, churning the sand with moving feet. Until. BOOM! Right hook, ELIZA and PAUSINI IS HURT! Italian steppin' in fence post holes as the blonde Aussie lets the hands go in a major way. Pausini driven back to the ropes where Taylor beings calling in artillery strikes. Laura in DEEP trouble as the referee looks in closely. BOOM! Right uppercut TAYLOR cuts the power and Pausini crashes past Taylor's left shoulder to land face first in the sand! Taylor raises the arms in victory on her way to a neutral corner. Count is a mere formality. Laura's down and out and it's OVER! And your winner by KO2 is Eliza Taylor!
AFTER:
Taylor almost giddy in the post fight. She's waited so long for this, her first fight as a managed fighter and she's won it impressively. "Like I told you," the Aussie says with a smile. "I worked very hard to get here. And, I'm not going anywhere any time soon. Count on that."
