Results & Story: Vassago

BEFORE: The news of Sarah Brandner joining the Black Eagle Boxing didn't sit well with Toni Garrn who believes she's actually the best German prospect north side of the 130 lbs. Most of the fans gathered inside the Barclaycard Arena in Hamburg think likewise but after all this is Garrn's hometown and she enjoys massve support all around the building.

The same can't be said about former Page 3 model Peta Todd who simply hasn't enjoyed the success of her partner Mark Cavendish and BBU TV's Georgie Thompson reckons she remains active on the BBU roster only due to her connection to the world-class cyclist. The 31 year old brunette hasn't won in over two years and got thoroughly destroyed by Josephine Skriver last time out; she took several months off following that beating but as is the case with majority of these P3-branded models, they always rise for another challenge - even though the betting odds are stacked against them.

Peta Todd wears a black bikini set and pink gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a sleek ponytail. Toni Garrn wears a light blue bikini and white gloves. Long blonde hair in loose waves. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the welterweight division.

Round 1:
There's some early promise from the buxom brunette but most P3 employees look promising UNTIL they get properly punched! Peta tackles the blonde to the body and pierces her ribcage in competitive fashion which actually makes Toni wobble a bit in the proccess. The lanky German can't find her balance at all and almost gets head-butted by the English foe who simply carves through her midsection like there's no tomorrow but only scores the big punch when she smacks a left cross against the brow ridge. Uh-oh! Toni's knees buckle as a direct result of that shot and Georgie Thompson reminds everyone we're above 130 lbs where literally one punch makes the difference! Garrn fends off the subsequent Todd pursuit by clinching her and dragging onto the ropes but that's not what the fans in Hamburg came here to see tonight and Gina Wild won't have to lose any sleep over her roster decisions either. Peta yells out in delight at the bell and wants a piece of the blonde as she intentionally bumps her against the turnbuckle before turning back but the sparks may be flying soon here as the local heroine looks genuinely upset.

Round 2:
Peta seeks another quick connection but Toni dominates the footwork department and stays clear of the close range which neutralizes the P3 model's plan and leads into a hectic back & forth game of boxing chess during the opening minute. From there on Garrn begins to mount a solid comeback and hassles the brunette with single-striking galore; she finally finds her way in a classic mid-distance heave while Todd simply can't put a couple of punches together and keeps bouncing off the blonde's forearms. However the truly big punches are still in demand and that's perhaps a criminal mistake from the blonde who can't exploit Todd's vulnerable defense. There's enough evidence to show that these P3 models crumble under a sustained pressure but Toni is happy enough with the artistic impression that allows her to dominate the round by numbers - even if the actual structural damage to Peta is downright minimal.

Round 3:
Maybe it's the lack of a coaching advice that makes Garrn look so hesitant in pulling the trigger but she truly gives Peta too much space to work with again and pays immediate price for it when the brunette WHACKS her across the lips and enforces the critical close range tussle. There's another near head-butt that spoils the blonde's plan while Todd tees off and lands more cruel punches upstairs to the point she has Garrn reeling on her heels! Ugh! A belting right hook digs deep into the German's tummy and slumps her forward but Peta just can't take advantage of the favorable circumstances and allows the younger model to clinch her into safety. Both women struggle for control on the ropes but this is the kind of tactics that fuels Garrn's survival and she breaks free from the troublesome close range during the final minute which leaves both Peta and her coach Samantha Fox visibly upset at the bell.

Round 4:
One wouldn't expect Toni to follow the counter-punching plan against such a mediocre opponent like Todd but that's the case here in the fourth and it actually covers the brunette's new-found aggression rather well. The dark-haired model struggles to connect with her punches with Toni openly hanging back and weathering the storm and the footwork display doesn't give the older girl any advantage whatsoever which allows Garrn to take her time. The round slowly turns into a cagey single-punching tease but the Hamburg audience shows enough patience to maintain the faith in Toni's choices and she manages to thump some late juice into Peta's boobs when the Englishwoman loses her temper and tries to blast her foe into instant mess with an ill-advised leap forward. Quite frankly Todd is fortunate she didn't take one straight up her chin because she got way too careless in that desperate effort to stay on top of the otherwise cumbersome opponent.

Round 5:
Peta charges straight at the local girl again but gets blocked off in a feisty tussle and then Toni finds that extra burst when she beats the older model for a cruel punch which finds the nose and wobbles the Londoner onto her heels. Peta tries to swing one from the back foot but misses and Garrn smashes into her boobs with a wild combo that reels the brunette backwards. Suddenly the German turns up the wick and head-hunts her foe all the way back to the ropes where Todd simply can't find an escape and soaks up plenty of leather abuse. That rally gets the crowd going again and Garrn is all over her prey during the second minute when she drops Peta's guard and rocks her head back & forth until the embattled woman cries out in pain. Toni gets a little carried away in her pursuit of instant destruction which allows the British model to clinch her at the last moment but she still delivers a late series to the exposed ribs which sink the older woman into more spasms right at the bell.

Round 6:
Todd doesn't look as feisty anymore and she doesn't have the legs to escape the German heat now... Toni launches a wild hooking frenzy upstairs and connects with the brunette's cheeks which sink her into more aching spasms. Allthough Samantha Fox screams her heart out in the PageThrees corner, she can do little about Garrn blowing through the Londoner's high guard and handing her a nasty gash under the left eye just past the one minute mark. Peta gets stranded in the center of the ring and barely grazes the blonde's flesh in a weak response while Garrn lands a quick hook to the solar plexus to bend her forward into a brutal uppercut that finds the jaw AND SENDS TODD TUMBLING DOWN ON THE CANVAS!!! That was simply too much for the proud P3 model to overcome and she's down her on all fours while the crowd chants Toni's name. Peta is not the one to perform a miraculous recovery but she makes a good try of it and gets up at seven. However she gets pounded back to the corner in no time after the fight is resumed as Toni yells out in determined fashion and sticks more unanswered leather straight up the middle. She lifts the brunette's boobs in the proccess and that really hurts the English model as she cries out in more pain and gives up the resistance ghost while simply getting DESTROYED in the corner... THE REF HALTS THE BEATING when Peta basically leans sideways against the ropes and shows no signs of making it competitive anymore. TKO6 Toni Garrn!!!

AFTER: Toni keeps screaming at the crowd once she's wrestled away from her opponent but that was a close call for the lanky Victoria's Secret model who looked anything but an elite prospect in the early going. If she hoped to upstage Sarah Brandner's performance the other day, it didn't quite follow the high-flying script. She seemed awfully hesitant for majority of the opening four rounds and Georgie Thompson reckons the hometown pressure maybe got to her in the end. It's not that often to see a genuine free agent being called odds-on favorite regardless of Peta Todd's journeywoman stock. One still has to land all the punches and the P3 stubbornness against adversity has become something of a BBU urban legend. Toni dodged the upset bullet tonight but needs more frequent activity to confirm her alleged elite prospects.

Final result: Toni Garrn def. Peta Todd TKO6.
