Intro:
The woman quickly becoming known as "Miss FNL" by the success she has had on the last few Emily Bett Rickards meets Rachel Leigh Cook tonight in the Cotai Arena.
Emily is 26 years old, she stands at 5'5 and holds a record of 6 wins, 5 by knockout and 2 defeats up to now.
Rachel is 38 years old, she stands at 5'2 and holds a record of 17 wins, 11 by knockout, with 24 defeats and 1 draw.
Both girls met at the press conference, posing for photos together with smiles on their faces, Rachel known for her friendless before fights can be seen asking Emily how she is as they have a quick chat then head to their tables.
Emily getting a chance to speak first, starting off with "wow I never thought I'd be traveling the world for these events, but look at me; I have won every time I have fought on these cards and this isn't going to be where I lose that run"
She adds "I like Rachel, a lot of the girls I know when we are in the locker room all like her so I can't hate her, once we step in that ring though it is all business, I get into the zone that has battered Kat Graham and many others before"
Rachel nodding as she looks over at Emily, deep in thought as she starts her own speech with "I have to say this year has been really bad, the concussion scare I had has really effected me but as my last fight proved to me, I still have some fights left in me and I plan on grabbing them with both hands"
She continues "Emily is cool too, I mean I'd love to be able to hug Steven Amell as much as she does" winking over at Emily who can't help but smile.
Finishing with "but I have to win this fight, we will both give our all to do that and hopefully the fans go home happy"
The girls shaking hands and Emily joking about her co star on Arrow and his hugs that make both girls giggle, before they head off stage.
Fight night, Emily has her coach by her side as she looks in the mood to remain unbeaten on these events judging by the stony expression on her face.
She jogs to the ring wearing a white bikini with a red trim, red gloves and her blonde hair is up in a ponytail.
Climbing into the ring, Emily heads to her corner after waving to the fans, she begins warming up with her coach, just focusing on the inside of the ring and not what is going on around her.
Out comes Rachel, a big warm smile on her face as she bows to the crowd and begins her own walk down to the ring, high fiving a few people in the front row.
She is wearing a black bikini with white polka dots on and a white gloves, her brunette hair is up in its own ponytail like her opponent.
Climbing into the ring, she does a lap inside the ring; waving to the crowd who seem happy to cheer both these stunners on, Rachel and Emily give each other a quick nod as Cook passes her on her way to her own corner.
Soon both fighters are brought to the ring centre, they both look serious now as they look each other up and down, no time for friendliness now; it's nearly time to shine.
Asked to touch gloves, the girls respectfully touch them up, nodding at their opponent before jogging to their corners, once there the bell is rung to start 10 rounds of flyweight action.

Round 1:
Out come the fighters with both up on their toes, Rachel looking to get to the inside early, leading to both fighters trading up close.
Rachel uses her experience to nudge Emily back with her left, landing a right over the top and dancing out the way of a haymaker like right from the blonde.
Emily trying to use her height and reach advantage to control Rachel, digging her fists into the gloves of Cook as the older fighter moves around her.
The brunette slips under a right cross to land a left to the ribs of her opponent, then adds an overhand right to drive Emily backwards.
The Canadian looking annoyed as she can't land anything meaningful as Rachel continues to be slippery, skirmish attacks by the smaller fighter give her the edge up to now.
Till Emily times her coming in and lands a jab to the top of Cook's head, before rifling a right between the gloves to the nose.
Rachel let's out a yelp as she is driven onto her back foot with punches hammering her face, the older fighter needing to cover up as the round is heading to a finish.
She does manage to duck a right hook and get in two more body shots as the bell rings to end the round, the girls giving each other a quick nod before jogging to their corners.
Rachel looking relaxed compared to her opponent after a good start to the fight, her eyes look bright and she looks excited after months of hard times.


Round 2:
Rachel looking to continue working in and out of the range of Emily, working the body predominantly as she keeps frustrating her opponent.
Till she gets caught coming in with a left cross, Emily looking to really take the fight to Rachel now, forcing her behind her guard as she pounds her back around the ring.
She nudges Rachel back with a left forearm to push her onto the ropes, then she starts pounding Rachel around her guard.
Rachel forced to fight back as the crowd gets a fiery exchange to watch, cheering as the girls land some real power punches across the others face and body.
But she needs to clinch up as she can't get herself off the ropes, no real pushing between the girls, allowing the referee to break them apart with no incidents.
Rachel managing to land a few jabs to the abs of her opponent, but takes a right across her face, knocking Cook back once more onto the back foot as Emily drives onwards.
Emily looking to have the more power judging by Rachel's head back as she starts to control the smaller fighter with her range and her accuracy getting better as the round heads to it's end.
Rachel though surprises Emily somewhat by aggressively parrying a right and getting right into her opponents face.
Both girls slugging it out in tight, Rachel is able to land the better punches, groans escaping both their lips as the crowd can hear thuds of fists landing.
The bell rings with both girls stepping back and heading to their corners, Emily looking happier as her coach washes her down and tells her "great work, keep using your reach babe to win this"


Round 3:
This time around it is Emily who starts off strongly, her long range punches digging into the top of Rachel's head, moving forwards to look for a big shot.
But Rachel bobs her head out the way of a straight and steps inside to land a right hook across the face of Rickards to turn her head.
Cook working the body on the inside with a flurry of punches forcing gasps from her opponent, pressing her onto the ropes as she turns up the aggressiveness.
Emily though fights back, both fighters trading as they try to control each other, sweat flying off their heads and bodies as they land freely with neither doing much defending.
Rickards needs to clinch up soon enough as she is getting the worst of the exchange, the referee again easily breaks them apart with Emily moving into space.
Now as Rachel tries to get in tight, Emily is catching her coming in with her straight punches, Rickards looking more focused as she knows she doesn't want another pounding to the body.
As the round heads to the end and both fighters trade multiple punches at a time, it's Emily though who is landing the better punches as she digs her shots between the gloves of Rachel to her nose.
Some blood starts trickling from the nose of Rachel as she gets hit with a stiff straight, Emily lands a follow up left cross just before the bell to finish the round the stronger.
The fighters head back to their corners knowing they can enforce their will on each other, so neither looks too worried as they sit down.
Rachel's nose needing to be cleaned up of course, while Emily has some redness around her body, both fighters cheeks marked up from the amount of punches they've shipped.
 

 

Round 4:
Both fighters circling early with punches finding gaps in the others defences, Rachel continuing to be aggressive though as she bobs her head and looks to get to work on that body.
Emily though looks to be controlling the action better at the moment, her footwork is allowing her to move out the way of her older opponent.
Her punches are also looking more accurate as she knocks the head of Rachel back with hard punches smacking into the top of her head.
But Rachel does manage to parry a right and steps forwards to land a right cross of her own, she looks to add another right cross that Emily just about gets out the way of.
Rachel continues to step forwards, swinging punches towards the body of Emily is forced to keep going backwards till she's nearly on the ropes.
A nice turn of speed allows Emily to move out the way of a right hook aimed at her ribs and fires back with a straight across the top of Rachel's head.
Rachel stumbles slightly as a follow up left catches her to the temple, she looks rocked as she eats another two punches across her chin as Emily plants her feet more.
A right hook smacks Rachel to the side of her head that puts the brunette down to her side! The crowd wonder if this is it as Emily jogs to a neutral corner.
Rachel can be seen blinking as she tries to clear her head, the referee counting her out above her as she looks him over, pulling herself up with the ropes to beat the count at 8.
She lifts her gloves up to show she is fit enough to fight, Emily hunts her down as she digs her punches into the guard of the smaller fighter, the bell rings though before she can finish the job.
Rachel shaking her head as she heads back to her corner, her coach having to try to get her ready for Emily, whose staring hard across the ring at her, those hawk like eyes looking at it's latest prey.
 

 

Round 5:
Rachel looks defensive as she does come out, trying to keep things tight as Emily comes forwards, the blonde barraging her punches off the guard as she looks to open it up.
An uppercut breaks open the guard and lands to the chin of Rachel, with a follow up right hook putting Cook down once again to her side!
The referee begins counting but this time Rachel isn't doing much to show she'll beat the count again, with the count reaching 10 to end the fight.

Winner: Emily Bett Rickards KO Round 5

After:
Emily continues to be unbeaten on Fight Night Live cards, another big win as she continues to move up the rankings and maybe catching the eyes of managers with this run of results.
She heads over to Rachel to check on her, with the referee helping to sit the beaten fighter up, who just nods at the winner.
Rachel upset that she couldn't get back into the winners circle, instead she is continuing to have doubts on her career.
Though Emily tells her "you really are as good as they say babe, I hope to see you back here soon" as she holds out her right glove.
Rachel smiling as she touches her glove with it to accept the sign of respect, the girls nodding to each other before Emily goes to celebrate in her corner.
While Rachel is helped out the ring to run tests, after the concussions she suffered over the years they have to take extra special care of her, though the doctor seems happy enough with her judging by his smile to the relief of her corner crew and friends.
Meanwhile Emily flexes her arms in the centre of the ring as the crowd cheer her, she looks so excited to see what's next for her career as she chats to her coach.
Rumours being that Emily could get a top 25 fight next in the next step up in class for her, all she is interested in though at the moment is to celebrate this win as she high fives some of the fans in the front row before heading to the back.
