(Alpha Boxing Club vs Team Canada)

Intro:
Emmanuelle Chriqui starts her mini tour against the Team Canada girls in her home country in what the stables hope will be a way of making money and fostering a good relationship.
Her first fight is against the 36 year old Emily Rose, the American is a long time Team Canada girl, her record is 1 win and 3 losses, no knockouts on her record.
Emmanuelle meanwhile is 39 years old, holds a record of 2 wins, both by knockout and 7 losses, she is actually the director of communication for the ABC stable but as she states in the prefight media event "I'm not retired if that is what you guys think" with a smile on her beautiful face.
Adding "its been too long since I've fought in Canada, with Team Canada starting to warm back up again, we at Alpha felt it was fitting to work with them on this event, they have always been a good stable and with a new drive, they should be watched out for"
Asked about her opinion of her opponent, she replies "she's a good fighter, she just doesn't seem to have that something, I can't put my finger on it, maybe it's her finishing instinct, but I have to only worry about myself and what I do in the ring"
Emily is asked about her opinion of Emmanuelle, instead she replies to Chriqui's comments "no offence as this is supposed to be a friendly fight between our stables, but you will get to see first hand what my killer instinct looks like"
The girls who were relaxed moments ago, now they are staring hard at each other, as if gloating each other to make a move.
Instead they keep calm as Emily finishes by saying "I hope you enjoy your return to Canada, just don't expect me to be your tour guide" then she storms out the room looking pissed off.
Emmanuelle thanks the journalists for turning up, has a quick chat with the Team Canada manager Amanda Tapping, before she leaves to get everything sorted for tomorrow.

Fight night in the Budweiser Gardens, in Ontario, Canada, Emmanuelle is out first, she's wearing a pink sports bra, trunks with white trim and strips down the sides, pink gloves and boots.
She has Hilary Burton in her corner as Alyssa Milano is back in America training the main stable girls in their gym.
But neither look worried as the crowd gives her a heroes welcome back to Canada, as they clap her and cheer as she climbs into the ring.
Waving to the crowd to show her thanks to them, before she heads to her corner to get warmed for the fight.
Emily is out next with Nicole De Boer by her side, the crowd give her an equally loud cheer that must be annoying both girls, hoping they would get the louder cheer in the arena.
She's wearing a red sports bra, trunks with white trim to go with her red gloves and boots.
Climbing into the ring, Emily stares hard at Emmanuelle, before heading to her corner to warm up with Nicole going through their routine.
The referee asks for both girls to come to the ring centre, the fighters look loose and ready to go as they listen to him, but their eyes are locked in an intense stare.
Asked to touch gloves, the fighters give each other a quick swipe before they jog back to their corners, as they get to their corners, the referee signals for the bell to begin 10 rounds of flyweight action.

Round 1:
Off they go, head towards the ring centre, both starting off with probing jabs to defences that quickly give way to harder thrown punches.
The fighters trade stiff straight punches through the others guards and Emily seems to be slowly starting to press Emmanuelle back with cleaner punches early.
Emmanuelle digs her feet in and starts pounding hooks around the guard of Emily to knock her back a step and the girls separate after a fast start.
Looking slightly weary of each other as a win could be massive for either fighter, they circle each with jabs flicking out again.
Emily looks to make the first move again and get back on the attack, she misses with a wild right and takes a swift counter to her left cheek with a straight punch.
The Canadian Emmanuelle is on the front foot with quick short sharp punches raining towards Emily's face, the American has her gloves up to protect herself as she gets knocked back towards the ropes.
While both have had jobber tags thrown at them, Emmanuelle looks far from a jobber on this early performance.
Keeping Emily back with quick little flurries, anytime it looks like Rose will land something, she gets caught with a counter shot where she's left space.
Emmanuelle actually seems to be feeding off the crowd as she smiles and is up on her toes against Emily, who looks like she could crawl under the ring right about now.
The bell rings with a loud cheer for Emmanuelle, Emily looking betrayed by the fans as she heads back to her corner.
Nicole spots straight away her fighters look of worry, the two argue for a bit as Emily can be seen shaking her head to whatever is being said.
In the ABC corner things are much calmer, Hilary doing her duties with no complaints from Emmanuelle, who is smiling, "this is what a home coming feels like then" she thinks to herself.

Round 2:
Emily almost has a crimson red face, she is fuming that badly that at the bell she charges forward to get into the face of her opponent.
Emmanuelle keeping her head, staying on the back foot and moving out the way of the bull like Emily, who looks like she wants to shove her through the ropes and into her adoring crowd.
She finally catches Emmanuelle, landing a hard left hook around the guard of the Canadian, then pounds her through her guard to the ropes.
Emmanuelle looks to be rocked as Emily is on her and her tour of her homeland could be starting in embarrassing fashion.
But she manages to deflect a few punches and get forward to clinch up, Emily upset is whispering something that doesn't go down well with Emmanuelle, the pink clad warriors face turns red as the referee struggles to separate the two off the ropes, Emily almost shoved through the top and middle rope as Chriqui looks irate.
The fight starts up again with Emily rushing forwards again, but surprisingly Emmanuelle looks even more focused.
She parries two shot rights from Emily and stings her to the nose with a double jab, then when Rose goes for left hook, she ducks and lands an overhand right as she comes back up.
All the steam that Emily was running on seems knocked out of her as she looms stunned to have been caught like that.
Emmanuelle with two straight punches to start her own show of force, knocking the head back of Emily, who after dodging out of a right straight, lands two hard punches of her own to the ribs of her opponent.
The fighters stand and trade to the delight of the crowd, roaring both girls on, though Emily seems to be ignoring them totally, just focused on knocking Chriqui back.
She manages to land two hard alternate cross punches to turn Emmanuelle's head and press her back a few steps.
Connecting with a few hard body shots to end the round on a high, but her face doesn't show any joy at that, instead scowling at Emmanuelle, who scowls back.
The girls go nose to nose as this looks like exploding in front of our eyes, both sets of coaches fly out their corners to pull back their girls, last thing they need is the fight to be thrown out.
Nicole trying to find out what the hell is up with Emily, the reply "just do your f***ing job!" Shows the disharmony in that corner.
Meanwhile in the opposite corner, Hilary calms Emmanuelle down, the two women talking about what was said to get her riled up and Burton telling her fighter to settle it in the ring and not between bells, which gets a solemn nod in reply.

Round 3:
Emily again tries to race across the ring, but Emmanuelle is ready for her, bobbing and weaving around her as Eniky throws wide punches.
The crowd look stunned that Emily is missing by as much, it is so by Emmanuelle is almost clowning around with her, giving her a little nudge as she misses with a right hook with some steam on it.
Emmanuelle landing two jabs up top and as Emily misses with a left of her own over the head, then Chriqui lands two hooks to the body of Emily.
Rose wincing as she's being knocked back by the older fighter, Emmanuelle digging her way forward with shots up top with straight punches and jabs eating through the guard.
Emily trying to fight back, getting caught though on her cheeks that are getting marked up, her eyes are shutting and down she goes!
The crowd are up and cheering as Emmanuelle jogs to a neutral corner, while the referee begins his count over Emily.
Emily shaking her head as she sits up and leans against the ropes as she clears her heads, the count is up to 6 as she starts to get up, beating the count at 8.
The crowd cheering her as she stands and the referee looks her over, she tells him she can continue and he let's the fight continue.
She is covering up as Emmanuelle comes at her, pounding away at the guard, the referee standing close to get involved if needed.
Emily manages to do enough to fight back to get out the round, the bell ringing to end the round with Emmanuelle standing proud.
As she heads back to her corner, Emily looks ready to hit something, banging her glove off the top turnbuckle and kicking her stool over.
Her coach Nicole is trying to calm her down, Emily shoving her and the referee has to get between coach and fighter!
Emmanuelle watching this carnage across the ring from her wondering what in the blue hell is going on?

Round 4:
Emily doesn't look focused at all, she comes out head hunting but isn't taking her time with her punches, missing wildly over the head of her opponent.
Then Emmanuelle strikes, seeing her chance; she ducks a right straight over her head and comes to the inside with two sharp body shots to the centre of Emily's abs.
The air is knocked air of her and as she stumbles back, she looks badly hurt, Emmanuelle pressing her to the ropes with a flurry of punches.
Emily takes the shots to her head as she can't get her guard up and the referee gets involved, pulling Emmanuelle off her, before waving the fight off as Emily stays slumped on the ropes as she hasn't the energy to get off them.

Winner: Emmanuelle Chriqui TKO Round 4

After:
Well Emmanuelle can't complain with this start to her tour, jumping for joy in her corner as she high fives Hilary with her gloves still on and has a wide smile.
On the other side of the ring, Emily is fuming, shoving Nicole away as her coach tries to help her, the Canadian crowd going silent as they watch two members of a stable named after their country are looking like they are going to fight.
The manager of Team Canada Amanda Tapping climbs into the ring and holds the snarling girls apart, insults flying as Emily accuses Nicole of being as we'll put politely "useless" but not that politely, Nicole is telling Emily what she thinks of her in equally nasty terms.
Amanda tries to calm both girls down but instead Emily takes her gloves off and throws them in Nicole's face, the crowd stunned by that.
Nicole has to be held back by Amanda as Emily climbs out the ring, giving her stablemates the middle finger salute, which goes down badly as the crowd boo her for showing disrespect to her supposed friends.
Emmanuelle and Hilary can't believe what they are seeing, they don't know whether to sneak out the ring and get out of here before they get caught in the cross fire.
But it looks too late as Amanda heads over to them, though as she starts apologizing for the ugly scenes they had to see.
The ABC girls nod and shake hands with Amanda, Emmanuelle telling her that she looks forward to her next fight in Canada, Amanda looking like she's only half listening, nods her head in reply before heading off to see Nicole.
Emmanuelle raising her arms to the crowd who seem to remember there was a boxing match before the drama kicked off, cheering her as she blows kisses to them.
Nicole and Amanda arguing as they head up the ramp, rumours would later say that there was loud screaming coming from the Team Canada locker room and possible fighting as banging noises were heard.
Meanwhile Emmanuelle and Hilary head back up the ramp, both discussing their plans for tonight, Emmanuelle planning to show Hilary all the great night spots to celebrate her win.
