BEFORE:



"Yeah, so, she's supposed to be some big deal now, because she beat Bloodgood," says Rihanna with a shake of the head and a smile. "Well. Let's not forget what happened the last time she got into a ring with ME."



"Yeah," says Kesha with a hint of a smile. "She beat me. Three years ago. And, she's about to find out just how long ago that was."



ROUND ONE:



O'Dell: "Back at ringside and that is 'Tik-Tok' you hear behind us, and that can only mean that the singer of said song, 'Six Feet of Sexy', Kesha, is on her way to ringside..."



Tess: "Big K riding a pretty good wave of results right now, especially after that big win over Bloodgood last time out. She's definitely shown she can be a factor at welter..."



Cassie: "No doubt about it. If you can beat a champion like Moon, you're for real in the division."



O'Dell: "Kesha into the ring and helped off with the robe by Jewel and Neve. She's wearing that navy blue bikini she likes. And, that's 'Don't Stop The Music' hammering through the arena, and that means that the lovely Rihanna of Beever's Babes is coming down to ringside..."



Tess: "Again, Wiz giving the honors to an opposing fighter here, and, it's for the same reason. The two fought back in 2013 on pay-per-view, with Rihanna coming out on top."



O'Dell: "Riri into the ring and helped off with the robe by the corner crew. Wearing a blue gray two piece that shows off an in-shape body that looks plenty able to compete here in the heaviest weight division."



McCarthy: "But, not at any bikini event at the Mansion, that's for sure."



O'Dell: "Ladies about ready. Let's get some picks. Tess likes Kesha. Mac?"



McCarthy: 'Rihanna beat the Dancing Hooker once. She'll do it again."



O'Dell: "Cassie?"



Cassie: "I agree with Tess!"



O'Dell: "And, there's the bell. Getting a look similar to the way things started the last time. Kesha wants to use that right jab at long range. Rihanna staying out there. She's not quite as long as Kesha, so she's got to move a little more, play angles to get to spots where she can land. Right now, though, a lot of movement and not much offense..."



McCarthy: "Watch how Rihanna fades on Kesha's punches. When the blonde lands a jab, Rihanna stepping back and away, wants Kesha to over-extend on the follow on left."



O'Dell: "Kesha not biting, though. Had early trouble last time with that and she's learned her lesson. She's taking what's there early, using the jab to dictate, forcing Rihanna to work hard to get off. But, the brunette willing to work hard. She's moving well, slipping and dipping and getting off in combination as the round goes on."



Cassie: "I like what Kesha's doing in response, though. A little back step to re-establish range."



O'Dell: "Definitely a tactical round for two girls who are known for their power. Then again, both have built up some experience now, and both are athletic enough to do more than just stand and bang. Final seconds ticking away in the first round. Good, back and forth stanza, but, at the bell, it's Kesha close."



Tess: "The girls are definitely more experienced than the first time, but, why do I think this thing isn't going to remain a tactical fight?"



ROUND TWO:



O'Dell: "Second begins with Rihanna a bit more aggressive. She's popping forward letting the hands go, creating some heavy exchanges at middle distances with the blonde. Kesha willing to fire back on these terms and holding her own doing it. Lots of power punches being traded in there right now..."



McCarthy: 'Walmart was right for once. Didn't take long to get down to the power punching."



O'Dell: "Sharp right from Kesha backs up Rihanna. Blonde coming forward now and RIHANNA ROCKS HER! A right hand from Rihanna and Kesha is steppin' in fence post holes! RiRi going to work with both hands now. Last fight lasted all of three rounds and this one may not make it THAT long..."



Cassie: "Not the way Rihanna's winging away. She has Kesha in serious trouble!"



O'Dell: "Brunette definitely all in, has Kesha backed to the ropes and taking. Rihanna committing on every punch, just REEFING leather at the blonde. Kesha in a high guard, not doing much but running clock. Referee watching closely. One more big punch may be enough to send him in there...but, there's the bell. Kesha wobbly back to the stool. Rihanna all smiles. Takes it wide."



Tess: "And evens the fight at 19."



ROUND THREE:



O'Dell: "Rihanna right to work to start the third. We could hear her corner between rounds shouting for her to stay under control but finish now...from all the way across the ring. And the brunette taking that to heart. She's aggressive, but sound. Backing a still iffy Kesha up with hard right hands..."



McCarthy: "Just looking for a small opening. Because, that's all she needs right now, Be patient, but not too patient."



O'Dell: "RiRi REALLy making with the leather! Thumping Kesha to head and even to the body now. She's working her back toward the ropes again. Blonde jabbing, trying to slow Rihanna down. Tossing in the odd hard left, but it's all back foot stuff, as Kesha can't hold her ground and DOWN SHE GOES! Rihanna the right hand and Kesha dropped to her back!"



Cassie: "That was a HUGE punch!"



O'Dell: "Rihanna to a neutral corner. Count at three. Four. Five. Six. Kesha rolls to her belly. Seven. Hands and knees. Eight. Nine. Kesha to her feet! An instant from a second consecutive third round KO at the hands of Rihanna, but Kesha beats the count. She'll take the mandatory and ON comes RiRi! The brunette all in again, battering Kesha around the ring. Blonde keeping the guard high, just trying to survive the round. Ten seconds to go. She's backed to the ropes. Rihanna throwing bombs. Referee looking in....BELL! Kesha survives again. But, Rihanna now in control!"



Tess: "Cards say 29-27, but Rihanna's close to putting this away."



ROUND FOUR:



O'Dell: "Rihanna coming after Kesha to start the fourth. Blonde in retreat behind the jab. Rihanna working to close, but not getting much done when she gets there. She's leaning on Kesha, making her take weight. Working some body. Blonde responding in kind and they're in the phone booth right now..."



Cassie: "Rihanna looking a little gassed right now. That can happen to even the best-conditioned fighters after two rounds of max effort like Rihanna just had..."



O'Dell: "Ladies in tight, working in and out of clinches, mainly punching to the body. Pace has slowed dramatically as Kesha works to shake off the damage of the last two rounds and Rihanna works to catch her breath after going all out to get the blonde out of here. It's head-on-shoulder stuff right now..."



Tess: "And, both girls still have some power behind those body shots. You can hear them landing."



O'Dell: "No doubt about it. Thirty seconds to go in the fourth. Rihanna banging the midsection. Kesha a good short right hook to the head that ranks as her best punch in some time. RiRi shakes it off, responds by digging to the breadbasket. Ten seconds left. Ladies going to tenderize some more flesh right to the bell. Close round. Rihanna."



McCarthy: "And, she's now up 39-36."



ROUND FIVE:



O'Dell: "Fifth begins with more aggression from the brunette. She's working forward, wants to close again. Kesha range-finding with the right jab, holding Rihanna with it, dropping in some left hands, making the brunette pay a price for trying to close. Rihanna getting where she wants to go, though, going back to digging body..."



Cassie: "Both girls looking a little better this round. Kesha's legs look back and Rihanna busier, seems to have recovered from all those punches she threw in the second and third."



O'Dell: "That, she does. Kesha shoving the brunette off now, landing a left hook, but Rihanna right back in close. She's determined to fight in close quarters, take away the long-range power shots that Kesha likes so much. Kesha shoving off again and SHE HURT RIHANNA WITH THAT LEFT HOOK!"



Tess: "No question about it, Jenny! Rihanna's legs did a shimmy!"



O'Dell: "And, now it's Kesha who's going all in. She's winging away at the wobbly brunette. Rihanna stumbling, staggering, looking ready to go, but those sturdy legs holding her up. Kesha a SOLID right hook that wobbles Rihanna again, but RiRi ships it and fires back a quick combination. ANOTHER hard shot from Kesha! Straight left that sends Rihanna into the ropes. Brunette in deep trouble here, taking heavy fire along the cables! Ten seconds left. Kesha just firing away, but Rihanna going to survive it. There's the bell. Kesha wide."



McCarthy: "48-46, Rihanna still on top."



ROUND SIX:



O'Dell: "Kesha off the stool with a purpose. She's STINGING Rihanna with that hard, Front Street jab, stopping her cold with it, then dropping in those big left hands. Blonde walking the brunette down, forcing her backward. Rihanna doesn't have the legs back all the way and she can't hold her canvas right now..."



Cassie: "This is clinical stuff from Big K. Very patient. Just piling up the hurt on wounded quarry."



O'Dell: "And, to Rihanna's credit, she's taken some heavy fire here, and, while she's backing up, she's holding up. She's firing back in spots, but, only in spots. Kesha forcing the offensive right now, and it's all Rihanna can do to stay off the ropes. Kesha a NASTY left hook that shook Rihanna, but, again, the brunette ships it and stays afloat..."



McCarthy: "No question she has some legs. Kesha's overrated like all the Dancing Hookers, and she doesn't have the power of someone like Nolin or Palicki, but she can punch, and that was a hard, clean shot..."



O'Dell: "And so was THAT left hand. And, again, Rihanna backs up, but takes it. Kesha's finally got her to the ropes now and she's taking advantage, piling on the leather. Rihanna fighting back desperately, but mostly being suppressed. She's taking a beating as we head to the bell, but, she takes it and stays on her feet. There's the bell. Shutout, Kesha."



Tess: "But, despite those two big rounds, Rihanna still leads 57-56."



ROUND SEVEN:



O'Dell: "Seventh sees Kesha continuing to take the fight to the brunette. Rihanna game, banging back, but still can't hold her canvas. Kesha just zeroing in on RiRi now with the right, getting that big left set up. Rihanna backed up by a good combination and then DROPPED BY A LEFT HAND! Straight left by Kesha and Rihanna dropped to a sitting position!"



McCarthy: "Set that up perfectly with the jab, dropped it in right behind."



O'Dell: "Kesha to a neutral corner. Count at three. Four. Five. Six. Rihanna just taking the time here. Seven. Eight. She's up at nine. She was clearly OK to get to her feet, just giving herself as much time as possible. She takes the mandatory now and the referee waives Kesha forward. Big blonde right back to that right jab..."



Tess: "Boy, the Kesha we saw the last time they fought would be winging everything at Rihanna right now..."



O'Dell: "Different fighter for sure. She's definitely looking to finish, committing on punches, backing Rihanna up, but she's not all in, not buzzing away. Just working hard and giving the brunette a beating. Good left from Kesha there. Rihanna backed up a step. OVERHAND LEFT AND DOWN GOES RIHANNA!"



Cassie: "That's the Hammer of Thor and this thing is OVER!"



O'Dell: "Kesha in the neutral corner. Count at three. Four. Five. Rihanna on her back, arms above her head, not moving. Seven. Eight. Nine. TEN! And it is, indeed, OVER. Nobody in the FCBA was getting up from that. And your winner by KO7 in comeback fashion is 'Six Feet of Sexy', Kesha!"



AFTER:



O'Dell: "Let's go up to the ring and Tess Valmore!"



Tess: "I have our winner, Kesha, and, Big K, a big win for you..."



Kesha: "No question about it. She's tough. A big hitter. Took me out once before. I knew I'd have to bring everything I had to beat her. And I brought it."



Tess; "That last left hand...looked like you knew it was over when you landed it..."



Kesha: "Oh, absolutely. I landed that pretty clean. Even SHE wasn't getting up from that."



Tess: "What's next for you?"



Kesha (smiling): "Well. Wiz says he wants to push me at the lightweight title. And I think that's a good idea."
