Iggy Azalea versus Candice Swanepoel
(Words: WW / Results: Lookout!)

BEFORE: It’s been a wonderful time on the beach, and it’s only about to get more wonderful as two girls who seem heated battle in the heat. Iggy Azalea vs Candace Swanepoel, started by Iggy calling out someone to fight, and Candace decided to accept. Candace is ready to knock this newcomer back in her place.

“This musician doesn’t seem to understand just how powerful I am.” she says with authority. “She’s going to regret running her mouth after only one victory. I promise you: I’m going to make her humble!”

Iggy scoffs, ignoring her opponent’s words. “Just like Joss—who’s been an awesome background wallpaper for my phone, and that pic’s got a bunch of attention on Twitter—she’s just a nobody. Strength doesn’t matter when you’re outclassed in every other category. I’m gonna put another one down in the sand so I can get to the top; AND get a new wallpaper for my phone, too!”

Iggy, accompanied by Arianna Grande, is wearing a black two-piece, exposing that midriff: the top is practically wrapped like a bow, with a nice zipper in the middle, the bottom is butt and hip accentuating, just like her last one. And, of course, matching black gloves.

Candace has a two-piece bikini with a dark blue top and a light blue bottom, complete with some designer shades. She's got a pair of nice white gloves.

ROUND 1: Iggy acting savagely as she comes straight for Candace! Candace finds herself dodging quickly as Iggy goes absolutely wild; smacks the rapper in the face with some jabs to get her to slow down, and she does for just a moment. Candace wastes no time try to capitalize, trying to knock Iggy down with force, but Iggy just punches right through it! Candace caught as Iggy lands a right hook into a left bodyshot--she's not messing around. Candace gets her guard up and lets Iggy unload a little more, and once she lets up PLOWS her in the jaw with a right. The model wants to win this battle of attrition as the lands a few more punches in Iggy's stomach, Iggy now blocking...and now Iggy dodges and WHAM! A left hand to the solar plexus from Azalea! What a back and forth between these two! The round ends with Iggy sending Candace stumbling backwards, just barely getting enough points with that little barrage.

ROUND 2: Both ladies circle each other, and Iggy tries to start, but Candace is on point with her weaving to dodge the rapper’s offense. Candace landing some nice short jabs to get her points up, staying in control: Iggy throws another punch and misses her mark, then eats an uppercut for it! Iggy's on the run just a little bit, playing it smart as Candace chases her. Iggy lands a sneaky breast shot to the South African gal to catch her off guard, lands a punch in the cheek, but whiffs a right as Candace shifts herself out of the way. Candace coming back with another helping of torment, her strong blows knocking Iggy into the ropes! It's possible that Azalea's got the fight of her life here: Swanepoel is looking scary as she traps the rapper and pounds her in the body over and over. Iggy does land a few punches, though, showing that she's not entirely helpless and staying strong. Iggy lands a hook and slips away from the ropes, getting back to the center of the ring. Iggy comes back with a left and OH! Candace parried it and smacks Iggy with a big right hand! This round ends with Candace asserting that dominance of hers as she takes her points!

ROUND 3: Both girls keeping it neutral this time, but Candace looks hungry. Iggy blocks her shots with ease, but her rhythm increases with speed and force the more the fight goes on. Iggy leans back, and just as Candace connects a light body shot, BAM! Haymaker to the face! Iggy unloads on Candace's breasts before hitting her with a straight right to the nose. The model's grunts echo as bits of sweat fly off of her body with each strike. She fights back just a bit, but mostly closes up to avoid anymore killer hits. Once again, these two are just about even, but it looks like Iggy's got this round. Iggy following up as Candace stands still with her guard, only for her to duck under a straight and uppercut Iggy right in the stomach! The rapper gasps for air, but Candace won't let her get any as she once again pushes her into the ropes with a flurry! Azalea looking a little weak here; her attempts at fighting back aren't much, and she's looking exhausted. Fortunately, the ref steps in, asks Iggy if she's okay, and the Aussie nods. She's not out of it yet, folks! The action picks back up as Candace fires off some more jabs, Iggy raising that guard. Iggy stays on defense for the rest of the round to rest, giving Candace another big lead in points. The model smiles cockily at her foe as the bell rings; and the rapper just grimaces back.

ROUND 4: Candace looking to capitalize on her dominance, but Iggy's still like a rock in her defense; as the seconds tick by, Candace gets angrier, but more vulnerable. A few jabs hit Iggy's guard, she blocks a stomach punch, and she steps away. Swanepoel swings forward with a reaching hook: Iggy ducks and counter with a painful jaw-busting right! Iggy smirks as she and Candace get into a slugfest: both of them trading blows and showing resilience! Iggy comes in with a left and then throws her right in a smart tactical feint! Azalea’s in charge now: peppering Swanepoel with speedy lefts. The model lifts her guard, and the rapper isn’t able to find a way through it. Now we’ve got Swanepoel trying to play keep away with Azalea, but the latter just keeps getting in and does a nice little 1-2 to her opponent, making her body jolt from side to side. Iggy leans forward again and Candace catches her with her right! Throws in a few left jabs for good measure, but Iggy just reaches over and hammers her in the face! Candace approaching the corner now as Iggy stays aggressive, doing her best to hit the Aussie as much as she can before she gets trapped. Lands a few on Iggy’s breasts, but it barely has an effect as Iggy just pushes right past it and bruises Swanepoel with a hook-jab-uppercut combination. The bell rings and now Iggy has the smile on her face: she takes that one. This has become a battle of sheer power and durability; who’s gonna win?

ROUND 5: Both girls still ready for action, summer sun beating down on them as they brawl. Iggy motioning Candace to "come on" with her gloves; Candace grits her teeth in anger and tries to slam her fist into her stomach, only to miss and get bopped in the side of the head for it. The fight's getting fun now: Azalea keeps beckoning Swanepoel like she's fighting a bull!  The rapper stays on her toes as she avoids more blows, very agile and--oh my! Candace made her walk right into that nasty left glove! The South African is trying to make her opponent's insolence pay: smacking her around with big hammer blows! Blood and spit come out of Iggy's mouth as she gets slammed left and right: but once again, she doesn't care about the pain! She ducks right under another blow and gives Swanepoel a nice uppercut to the rack: making Swanepoel pause as she winces in pain. Iggy Iggs is desperate to show off her tenacity! Candace, however, wants to show how she leads in the ring: the ball's still in her court as Iggy gets that guard of hers up. Candace desperate to slip into it and get a knockout, but Miss Azalea's dodging and defense are just too hard for her to penetrate! The round ends with another straight meeting Iggy's guard. Swanepoel groans in frustration as Iggy winks at her, knowingly denying her an easy KO. Candace should be happy in knowing that she takes a round yet again!

ROUND 6: Candace once again is bloodthirsty as she tries to make sure Iggy's out cold. She's getting a bit more angry now: almost animalistic in her pursuit of the rapper. Iggy's just staying out of trouble though, letting Candace's white gloves whiz by her. And now Candace stumbles forward as Iggy whirls away from a right hand...as Candace turns around, she gets a facefull of fist! Azalea's uglying up that pretty face with impunity; now Candace's bruises get stronger and she stains Iggy's outfit and her own gloves with red. The hunter's become the hunted! Iggy bullies her opponent into the ropes; Candace throwing out jabs to make Iggy stop, but she just smacks the attempts out of the way and keeps plowing into Swanepoel! The South African model isn't looking good right now: her defense is a bit shaky. But the fight isn't over yet, and she hangs on while Iggy throws her everything into her punches. You can practically hear the exertion with every punch thrown by these gals across the ocean! Candace wants that power back, but she just can't take it. She's playing by Iggy's rules now--working the defense, but it's obvious she's getting a little tired. She catches Iggy in the ribs in a smart counter punch tactic, and a sneaky right hand to the side makes the rapper back off a little, but she's still in danger of being walloped on. Iggy working like a psuedo-unstoppable force, wanting to press the South African back into a trap, but Candace hangs on and refuses to become a punching bag! The round ends with Iggy landing a few more hits on her opponent, both girls panting from tenseness and exhaustion as they collapse back into their corner. Iggy was very in control for this one, though, so she grabs it!

ROUND 7: Candace lets Iggy take the lead: not entirely unwise, as she could make the same slip up Candace did last round. Maybe that isn't the case, though: Iggy stays calm as she peeks around the model's entire form searching for an opening; it's just a matter of time now. Iggy with close left and right stingers, Candace dodging them...Iggy's stomach caught with a right handed uppercut, making her lean forward in pain as Candace attacks! Now it looks like the model's got her control back, as she makes Iggy stumble back. Candace reaching for the breasts with her right, poking at Iggy's beautiful bod. And now she throws that right straight, Iggy dodges, and--"OOF!" That was Candace shouting as she overextended again, leaving Iggy to punish her entire body! Iggy lands a left and right hook, and Candace drops her arms: she's had enough! Cross to the solar plexus, left to the boob, and a bit right to make Candace crumble into the canvas and coughing violently. Iggy walks with an air of swagger as she goes into her corner. The ref counts as Candace tries to push herself up, but it's just not happening as he gets farther and farther. Candace makes another try, but collapses at 8, and lies on the floor belly-up, desperate to catch her breath as she's sprawled out over the ring. The ref gets to 10, and it's a KO! More specifically: KO7 for Iggy Azalea!

AFTER: The bell rings, and Iggy goes center to receive an arm raise and victory callout. The crowd cheers and Iggy shouts "WOO!" while clapping her gloves together, proud, but very relaxed about it.

As we ask her about how she feels, she seems a little resolved. 'I'm a little ticked I didn't beat my record like I said I would. I wanted a KO before round 6, damn it, not after it! All-in-all, Candace did good--but it doesn't matter. At the end of the day, I still won. I proved I was the stronger woman! If Candace wants a rematch, I'm game: but if she doesn't, I don't blame her. I wouldn't wanna fight me, either, after what I did to her!"

Iggy picks Candace up and puts her back in her corner; no show-offy humilation. Arianna raises an eyebrow in confusion--so does Candace, expecting more punishment and smart remarks. Iggy just shakes her head and says "I didn't earn it" in response. Still triumphant and posing for her fans, though, as she exits the ring with another win under her belt. Maybe Candace really DID make Iggy humble, after all!
