Results: Lookout!; Story: Vassago

BEFORE: Figthing on a two day rest is always a challenge but Lily Aldridge simply couldn't pass on the opportunity to lead Team USA in the International Cup earlier this week. Whether she beat Cara Delevingne or not isn't that important and Amy Willerton simply has the designated physical advantage tonight. She beat two Lioness models last year already and there's every chance she completes the hat-trick against Lily Aldridge who admits the Bristol blonde is not afraid to swing for the fences coming off a larger than life clash with elite welterweight Hannah Ferguson: "That chick got some balls! Is this the moment where I should say I hope she underestimates me and my victory will actually be an upset? Like really?" (laughs).

Lily Aldridge wears a light blue bikini set & black gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a custom ponytail. Amy Willerton wears a pink bikini set & white gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a high ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the lightweight division.

Round 1:
Lily might be carrying some fatigue but she's not showing it during the opening round where she methodically keeps the blonde at bay and controls the range with confident striking. Amy refuses to engage in a slugging contest but there's little hope she earns the benefit of the doubt fighting on her opponent's terms. She tries to upgrade her attacks down the stretch but fails to break through the brunette's guard and eats some overhand stingers that further slow her progress. Lily works the head-hunting route and while she doesn't apply considerable power it's more than enough to outwork the cagey tourist who just cannot get going here at all.

Round 2:
LMW coach Ali Landry urges a more aggressive display from the former Miss GB and Amy manages to stick several meaningful shots into the brunette's face. Lily ignores that series and continues with her steady approach but then Willerton smacks her on the nose before adding a quick belter on the exposed liver area. Ugh! That was too close for comfort and Lily has to step up with her efforts... only for Amy to blast her over the top with a supreme delivery! Aldridge gets clobbered onto the ropes as the blonde's sudden burst catches her off guard and leads into a desperate clinching stalemate during the second minute. Amy manages to break free and punish the older model with another head-hunting drive while Lily slumps into an earmuff cover and suddenly looks very hittable but the British woman is unable to inflict more damage before the clock expires.

Round 3:
Amy charges ahead and sticks more leather into the brunette's face as Lily's high guard collapses underneath a high-octane attack and the American does look a little battle-weary after all as she gets bounced around the ring and struggles to find a genuine response. Willerton keeps cashing in with several crisp shots and bundles the reeling opponent onto the ropes were she blasts her in the stomach and works more drilling pressure to fold Aldridge into spasms come the final minute. Ugh! Lily tries to smack one into the blonde's tits but gets overpowered in the phone booth and leaks more gut shots to slump into loud spasms at the bell.

Round 4:
Amy continues to pile more leather into the brunette's body and flicks a couple of nasty hits on the chin before enforcing a back & forth exchange in the center of the ring. Lily tries to hang on while sticking a single hand attack into the blonde's face but has to bail out of the experience and spends the second minute ducking & weaving from Willerton's sustained attacks. The British model gets too confident in her relentless charge and taunts the older woman verbally before driving more leather into her cleavage anyway. Aldridge falls back onto the ropes and looks to be on the verge of checking out of this contest but then she rips a good uppercut series on the rack and beats Amy for a wild overhand that nails the tourist on the ear. Amy wobbles forward to meet a heavy uppercut on the chin and spins sideways just as Lily nails her with a vicious right hook on the eye! BLONDE GIRL DOWN!!! Uh-oh!!! Shocking turnaround right at the bell as Amy drops to her backside just as the clock expires and suddenly the MGM Grand is buzzing in Lioness support while the British girl storms back to her corner ignoring the referee's count.

Round 5:
Lily gives it all she's got but Amy still has the slugging presence and it's all or nothing war of attrition in the center of the ring. Amy nails the older model on the nose but eats a drilling double on the chest and wobbles forward to meet another uppercut blast... she slumps to the side with a loud whimper and raises her mitts a split second too late so Aldridge BLOWS HER AWAY with a brutal right hook on the eye. Oi, Amy!!! BLONDE GIRL DOWN AGAIN!!! She crumbles to her side with eyes closed and the ref quickly waves off the count as there's no coming back from that piledriver anymore! KO5 Lily Aldridge in come-from-behind fashion!!!

AFTER: Lily stumbles back to her corner and tells coach Claudia Schiffer she's all out of gas here: "One more round and I'd have hit zero. Thank God I didn't break my wrist sending this bytch back to England! I've had enough of them for a while! I'd rather be fighting Jennifer Lopez next time around!" (winks).

Official Result: Lily Aldridge def. Amy Willerton KO5.
