Before: “I am really excited about fighting Rachel,” young Brie Larson tells the press at the pre-fight. “I know she’s been Bantamweight Champion 4 times and I’ve had is 4 career fights. I know Emily VanCamp knocked me out last month, but I think I learned a lot from that fight. I am confident I can give a good account of myself in this fight.”

“It’s always nice to be talked to with respect by a younger fighter—especially one who is bigger than me,” jokes the veteran Rachel. “Seriously, I am determined to take one last run at the Bantamweight Title. To do that I have to prove I can beat the younger bantams. Brie’s already beaten my stablemate Laura Vandervoort last summer, but that was on the beach. I think I can handle her in a ring just like VanCamp did. Yes, I do think I can teach her some things. I just hope she doesn’t resent the way I will be instructing her.”

Brie smiles: “I would never resent someone who fights by the rules and beats me.”

“Then you have nothing to worry about—except losing,” Rachel says.

On the night of the fight Brie is wearing a royal blue sports bra and matching short royal blue trunks. White boots and gloves with blue laces. Hair a in a single braid down her back. Rachel in a red sports bra and short black trunks with a red stripe up the sides. Black boots and gloves with red laces. Rachel is loose auburn hair, but wetted down. Polite ring instructions and fighters soon back in their corners. The bell rings…

Rachel McAdams comes back to win this round wide.

R3: Rachel again charges forward, but this time Brie makes her fight her way through a barrage of her best long-distance shots.

R6: They go right back at it as th new round gets started. Rachel and Brie getting in close and hammering at each other hoping one or the other will give way. Then Rachel drops down and comes shooting up unexpectedly and rams a right uppie into Brie’s chin. DOWN GOES BRIE LARSON. Blonde struck flush stumbles back and lands hard on her butt. Brie sits there blinking in confusion as Rachel heads for neutral corner. Referee moves in and starts counting. Brie taking some deep breaths and then slowly rises.

Rachel starts chasing Brie and lunging at her. Brie patient and then strikes as Rachel is lunging at her yet again. Brie throws everything she’s got into a right and Rachel walks into it. KA-POW! Right crunches into Rachel McAdams’ jaw and the veteran is lifted off her feet and HURLED TO THE CANVAS. Rachel lands on her side and then rolls onto her back, her arms at her sides, her eyelids fluttering. Brie gets to the neutral corner and watches as referee is counting. Rachel is moving her arms and legs, but she can’t seem to do more. The count reaches “TEN!...YER OUT!”

IT’S OVER! BRIE LARSON DEFEATS RACHEL MCADAMS KO6!

After: Brie smiles happily as she waves to the cheering crowd. Great comeback, rising from the canvas after a knockdown and a minute later putting Rachel McAdams down for the count. Brie hurries over to check on Rachel who is being tended by Foxfire’s corner crew. Rachel gives Brie a hug and a word of congratulations before she is escorted from the ring. Brie goes back to her corner to where stablemate Anna Kendrick greets her with a even bigger hug.

Great win for the newcomer. Probably Brie Larson’s biggest win to date. Sure she was bigger and younger than Rachel McAdams, but when McAdams oput her down, Brie got back up and nailed Rachel to win the fight. Should definitely boost Brie’s contender status. As for Rachel McAdams, she fought hard, but Brie seemed too much for her tonight. Hopefully her next opponent won’t have quite as many advantages in youth and size as Brie Larson.
