Aurelia Ng vs XinLin Khaw
Aurelia Ng (5'5, 28, 1-2)
 
XinLin Khaw (5'7, 28, 0-3)
 Pre-match: Aurelia stands ready in her corner with an orange sports bra, black high cut trunks completed with red gloves while XinLin stands opposite her with white sports bra and blue trunks, completed with yellow gloves. Round 1: XinLin plays it safe and keeps her distance away from Aurelia who mounts on the offensive early. Managing her range, XinLin jabs Aurelia whenever she gets too close, frustrating Aurelia. Aurelia keeps inching forward but XinLin avoids getting trapped in the ropes and corner, thwarting Aurelia’s offense. The round ends with both girls remaining relatively unharmed but XinLin takes the round with her precise jabbing. Round 2: Aurelia leads with her chin and ramps up her offensive pressure, slowly chipping away XinLin’s guard. Aurelia manages to land a few swipes across XinLin’s cheeks, forcing her hand as XinLin makes use of her reach advantage to attack while maintaining a distance. Aurelia’s offense seems to have worked at shaking XinLin’s confidence as her defenses become sloppy. Still XinLin manages to take this round with a narrow lead in score. Round 3: After advice from her corner, XinLin forsakes her defense strategy and goes toe-to-toe with Aurelia. XinLin successfully corners Aurelia initially but could not keep her there. Aurelia slips out of the corner and collects herself before dazing XinLin with a jab and uppercut! The round turns into a high octane scrap as both refuse to go down before the other. Leather smacks echoes through the arena until the round ends with a draw. Round 4: Aurelia pounds her gloves as she meets XinLin in the center of the ring. Aurelia tries to take XinLin’s head off early but XinLin thwarts her attempts and counters her with a body hook to the liver and straight to the sternum, pushing the air out of her. Aurelia retreats but XinLin could not follow up with much meaningful offense, giving Aurelia the time to recover. Aurelia comes back and rocks XinLin with two swipes and pressures her into the corner. XinLin crunches up as she tries to block bodyblows from Aurelia before the bell calls for the end of the round. Round 5: Aurelia tries to keep XinLin at bay by moving out of her reach, occasionally eating some jabs given that defense isn’t her strongest play style. Aurelia lures XinLin into fully extending her arm before lunging in with a jab to the nose, body shot to the obliques and uppercut to the chin, sending XinLin into the ropes. Aurelia pins her to the ropes and repeatedly swipes left and right. After seven clean punches, XinLin collapses to the ground. She’s down! The ref counts to 10! It’s over! Official decision: Aurelia Ng defeats XinLin Khaw via KO5!

Hayley Lee vs Kerstin Ong
Hayley Lee (27, 5'6, 1-4)
 Kerstin Ong (5'7, 24, 1-1)
![]()  Pre-match: Hayley stands in her corner wearing a gray sports bra and lime-green tights complete with white gloves. Across the ring, Kerstin shows up tonight with all-black sports bra and shorts, complete with black gloves. Round 1: Aware of Kerstin’s dirty techniques previously, Hayley stays cautious as she approaches Kerstin. The pair test their respective reaches and swat gloves. Hayley lunges in and surprises Kerstin with a couple of jabs and hooks but Kerstin manages to raise her guard just in time to avoid further damage. The bell calls for the end of the round and Hayley leads by a narrow margin. Round 2: Hayley keeps her guard tight as she approaches Kerstin, attacking only when there’s an opening. With no path to her target, Kerstin attempts to misdirect Hayley’s guard with a feint left jab aiming high - it works! Kerstin hits an uppercut to the belly, making Hayley feel as if she is going to spill out her lunch and dominates Hayley for the rest of the round! Hayley survives the round albeit barely, avoiding an embarrassing early KO. Round 3: Kerstin puts on the gas and tries to take Hayley out this round, but Hayley’s guard remains impeccable. Knowing Kerstin would try a feint jab again, Hayley strikes at the window of opportunity before going back to a guard. While Kerstin takes more attempts at striking, she is not able to make her hits count. In contrast, Hayley is calculative and precise. The round ends in Hayley’s advantage. Round 4: Hayley and Kerstin move to the center and begin exchanging punches. Having taken some clean hits in the previous round, Kerstin tries to contain her brashness and conserve her stamina. While it looks like the round would end with a draw, Kerstin manages to slip a nasty right cross beyond Hayley’s guard and puts her down for the count! Hayley gets up by 7 and the bell clangs, avoiding a certain TKO if the round were to run longer! Round 5: Getting knocked down late in the previous round means the effects will most likely spill into this round. Indeed, Hayley’s movement appears sloppier and Kerstin is ready to capitalize on it. Kerstin consistently traps Hayley in the ropes and corners, pummeling away. There is no attack plan from Hayley. Her only goal is to survive. Hayley bites through the pain, trying her best to reduce the damages by keeping her head tucked behind her gloves, her belly crunched up. Survive she did! Kerstin returns to her corner in frustration after failing to defeat Hayley this round. Round 6: The revitalized Hayley steps back into the battleground ready to engage her fierce opponent. Kerstin keeps the pressure on with a flurry of punches but Hayley keeps herself level-headed. And when Kerstin slips, Hayley lands a stiff uppercut that sends Kerstin to the canvas with a THUD! The ref counts as Kerstin tries to sit up, looking like she has just woken up from deep slumber. She gets up by the count of 8 but is still woozy from the blow. Face wide-open, Hayley lunges in and connects with a jab-jab-hook! Putting Kerstin back onto the canvas! The ref waves the match off! It’s over! Official Decision: Hayley Lee defeats Kerstin Ong via TKO6!
