Before: Once again “Fighting Ingenue” magazine has put together a boxing battle between two young stars. Blonde bantam Peyton takes on flyweight brunette Camila in a “catchweight” bout.

“I think Camila has made a mistake wanting to take me on,” Peyton says. “She’s too small and I am used to fighting bantams. I don’t see this going the distance.”

There are some questions about turmoil in Peyton’s management, but Peyton brushes it aside: “There was a period of a month where I was a free agent, but I can take care of myself. Now I have the BB trainers back behind me. Camila only wishes she had the management I have.”

Camila Mendes is cool: “I will admit I am the underdog and I wish I had her management, but who could pass up a ‘Blonde vs Brunette’ fight? Plus this time the smaller brunette will take down the bigger blonde, though I will admit Peyton is not exactly an Amazon.”

Peyton smiles: “I’m a Petite Amazon—the big Amazons who look like Lynda Carter and Gal Gadot—get all the publicity, but we smaller Amazons can whip anybody our own size—or less.”

Camila smiles: “I hope you don’t get in trouble with the Amazon Sisterhood if I take you.”

“I am not worried,” Peyton says confidently.

Come the night of the fight, Peyton is in a shades of blue one piece with black boots and gloves. Hair in a blonde ponytail. Camila is in a blacke piece with light blue gloves and boots (dark blue laces). Hair in a tight battle braid down her back. Polite ring instructions as both fighters go to their corners. Bell rings.

R1: Peyton using her longer reach to strike at Camila as the smaller fighter tries to get at her. Camila smacked up to the face, shifts her ground and tries again, but again gets kept a distance by the blonde’s fast left and right strikes. Peyton cracks a solid right to the jaw that freezes Camila. Blonde the moves forward knocking Camila’s head until the brunette can get her guard up. Then Peyton works Camila’s body, keeping Camila backing up, but finally Camila slips off to one side and gets clear. Peyton in pursuit, but now encounters Camila’s jab and the brunette is getting better at evading the blonde’s longer shots. However round ends with Peyton still holding a comfortably wide lead. Camila’s face covered with shiny swollen lumps, but she gives a smiling Peyton a defiant glare before turning away.

R2: Camila moving fast out of her corner and showing some nice footwork as she is finally able to get in close and start hammering at Peyton’s torso. Peyton looking flustered as her stomach, chest and ribs are given a thorough swabbing of Mendes leather. Peyton trying to get away from the churning arms and hail storm of punches, but Camila like a terrier not letting her bigger opponent get time to breathe. Peyton finally gets her jab going to drive the aggressive flyweight back, but Camila soon back at her. Now Peyton clipped on the chin, but manages a smacking jab to Camila’s mouth. They battle to the bell and Camila emerges the winner by a wide margin this time. Peyton blinking in surprise at the fired-up Camila who stands looking up at her with a fierce smile. Referee steps in to send the young ladies back to their proper corners.

R3: If Camila Mendes wants to fight in close, Peyton Roi List apparently decides to oblige her and the two of them go toe to toe right after bell rings. It is quite a sight to see their elbows moving in and out like high speed pistons to deliver punishing punches to each other’s straining bodies. Both are pushing forward which the taller Peyton seems to benefit from at first, but the hard-hitting smaller Camila now bringing hooks up to smite Peyton’s breasts. Peyton gasping for air, but then pumps her own hooks into Camila’s lungs. This rages on and on until the bell sounds. Crowd is transfixed watching this unrelenting battle of attrition. Referee has to jump in to stop it, Two finally standing there, breathing hard as sweat drips from their bodies, and seem to study each other for a moment before quietly turning away. Crowd cheers for them both as the round recorded as a DRAW.

R4: They go right back at it as the new round commences. Camila and Peyton waste no time getting out to the center of the ring and then going at it toe to toe. They are leaning in so close as the round progresses that their sweaty foreheads nearly touch. Bodies are under most of the attack, but then Peyton suddenly steps back and drives a straight right that catches Camila between the eyes, Camila rocked back on her heels. Peyton follows up, but Camila gets her jab back up and drains the force from Peyton’s attack. Camila tries to counterattack, but now Peyton has her jab out and drives the brunette back. Settles into a back and forth exchange of mid-distance punching (which benefits Peyton with her longer reach). Rounds ends with Peyton getting a hard-fought narrow win.

R5: Camila and Peyton go at it up close yet again. It’s hard-hitting, grinding body punching that narrows the action, but does not slow it up. Then Camila steps back and pulls Peyton into lunging after her. WHAM! Camila slips an uppercut behind Peyton’s gloves up into her chin. Peyton’s head snapped back.. Camila leaps upwards and smacks Peyton with rights and lefts to the jaw as fast as she launch them. Peyton stumbling back in disarray as Camila hangs on her in more terrier-like tenacity just swiveling Peyton’s head with those rights and lefts. DOWN GOES PEYTON! Final uppercut right to the chin and Peyton is ragdolled to her back. She lies there , arms and legs outflung, head moving from side to side as her eyelids flutter. Camila off to the neutral corner. Referee counting as Peyton struggles to rise but can only push herself into a sitting position as the count rolls to:

“NINE!...TEN!...YER OUT!”

Peyton hangs her head in sorrow. Camila breaks into a big smile and waves to her fans as she walks around the ring.

THE WINNER: CAMILA MENDES KO5!

After: “You suckered me!” Peyton admits ruefully as Camila later hoists her off her stool for a Walk of Shame.

“You nearly got me with a trick. I just executed mine better,” Camila says. She is clearly enjoying being photographed forcing her taller, defeated foe to march around the ring.

“I want you to know I’m not going to let this stand.” Peyton says sullenly. “no flyweight will get away with beating me.”

“I don’t blame you for being cranky,” Camila said, “I wasn’t really sure I could beat you. I have to say now that I’ve done it—I’m loving it.”

“Enjoy it while you can,” Peyton says, “my day is coming.”

“But this is mine, so just pose for the cameras and it will all be over that much quicker,” Camila says cheerfully.

Interesting clash of young fighters. Both brought a lot of energy to the contest, but Camila Mendes got the win with her strong finishing punching. Disappointing outing for Peyton Roi List, but we expect she now has extra motivation to turn things around in her next bout. Of course, the unmanaged Camila Mendes has to wonder about her next bout, though there are reports that the gimlet-eyed Michelle Williams of HISC has Ms. Mendes on her “Rookie Hit List” as her next beatdown candidate. If this is worrying Camila she shows no sign of it.

“Me and Mish Williams? Yes, I am aware of the reports too and it could well happen, but that’s not going to worry me now. I’m just too happy with this win.”
