Results: Lookout!; Story: Caspian & The Dollhouse

BEFORE:
"Kat has some balls, I'll give her that..." Priyanka grinning mischievously from her place at the press table. "Or maybe she has a very small brain. I definitely wouldn't have challenged me again if I were her. That inflated record of hers isn't very convincing, nor impressive. While she's been busy beating old-timers like Mccarthy, Pressly and Carter, I've been doing some ACTUAL fighting against prime-time, top girls, like Greene, Bellisario and Kosarin, and you know…BEATING them.

The HISC goddess smiles cockily at Winnick, who's at the other end of the table, before continuing: "I guess knocking you silly and slapping you around wasn't a good enough lesson last time. But don't worry. I promise I'll do worse to you tonight, since you asked so nice and all..."

Like last time, Priyanka trying to get under Winnick's skin early before the fight. And though the Doll ended up losing that match, it wasn't because Chopra succeeded in the mental game. Katheryn takes her turn on the mic and she has plenty to say:

"I fought Priyanka pretty early on in my boxing career. I think it was my 7th fight overall? And yes, she got me good. She's tough as nails, hits hard, is bigger and younger than me. I'm not making excuses; these are just the facts - facts I'm going to overcome tonight because frankly, I'm much better and more experienced than I was back then. And even though she likes to brag about the women she's beaten, the truth is I've been fighting non-stop these last two years while she's had, what, six fights, total? The result might surprise a lot of people tonight. I'm here to get some revenge, especially after how she chose to end our previous encounter. I have a lot of fans who came to see me tonight, and I have no intention of disappointing them. Chopra’s going down, I f*cking promise."

Some strong words from both women as they take the center podium to stare into each other's eyes, posing with hands on hips and contrasting expressions: Chopra still smirking devilishly whereas a dead serious look is etched onto Winnick's. It's rare for Katheryn to employ such strong language, but also a testimony to how bad she wants this revenge win tonight. Before a pre-match brawl can erupt here, the ring official forces them apart and back to their rooms for final preparations.

Later, the arena erupts in pyrotechnics as Priyanka is first to take the stage, a long cape hugging her body as she strides down the ramp with one hand raised high into the air. The Indian goddess is wearing a black as night sports bra, and matching yoga pants and purple gloves, long dark hair tied in a sleek ponytail, and overall looking stunning yet menacing altogether.

Next up is the resident Doll herself, and Winnick parting the curtains to a flash of silver and neon blue laser lights, looking mean and ready to rumble in her usual colours of black and white sports bra and tights, with matching gloves. Her long blonde hair in a high ponytail as she finally allows a small smile to curl her lips as the roar of her fans gives her a confident boost. There's nothing like fighting a nemesis on home turf, is there?

In the ring, ladies are loosening their limbs and bouncing on their feet, ready to go for ten rounds of Bantamweight action, once the referee gives his go ahead for the bell to sound. HERE we go!

ROUND 1:
Priyanka cocky even in her fighting stance, arms loose in front of her chest, barely covering up her face as she walks Katheryn down, looking to bully her. Winnick on the other hand looking cautious, calm, guarding against those early shots from Chopra with ease, her mind entirely focused on defense and not keen on making another mistake tonight lest she finds herself face-first on the floor. Chopra scoring some early jabs that land on the blonde's body, finding other little successes as she tags Winnick's face but then eats a returning fist or two as Kat gets to counter-punching and moving backwards, smartly using Chopra's own advancing energy to her own advantage. Priyanka no longer smiling by the time the third such flurry slams into her nostrils. She lets out a loud curse word in her native tongue before redoubling her charge forward. Bad move, as that's exactly what Winnick wants. The blonde able to spend the rest of the round picking off her targets with ease with that reliable jabbing right hand, allowing Katheryn to take the first round wide as a result!

ROUND 2:
Slow and steady is gonna win Winnick her revenge if she keeps up the pressure. By contrast, a scowl on Priyanka's face that ain't good news, with the Consortium starlet finally realising she might need to put in some additional thought into this boxing exercise. First minute sees a tense standoff as both ladies refuse to get in close enough to brawl, just in case the other girl's waiting for them in the hedges. But then Priyanka's patience runs thin, slips past a jab flurry from Kat, who looks surprised at her rival's speed, until she doesn't, and Chopra lifts her head into the air with a well-placed uppercut to the chin! Priyanka using her power to great effect, another left-right swipe at the blonde's body and chest, with a third such hook caught on the arms has Winnick jumping backwards, desperate to get back out of range. She's had some painful experiences whilst brawling with Chopra the last time round, but one wonders if she has really developed the tools necessary to counter her foe this second time they're fighting. Chopra taking it 10-9.

ROUND 3:
Katheryn's patience however paying off in the third after spending a minute or so diligently parrying and blocking Chopra's incoming jabs. Right out of the gate, Priyanka back into rush-mode, hoping to score an even earlier knockdown that previously managed. But like Winnick said, don't you dare underestimate her this time, and Chopra's hook is parried harmlessly off to the side with a raised arm, before a right hand from Kat disappears into the middle of her face! UGHH!! That must have hurt! Dull groan from Chopra's lips as she goes stumbling to the side, suddenly the one in danger of tilting over. Kat on her case all at once, knocking the big girl's head back with short but effective jabs to the nostrils and lips, then swinging in harder hooks into the sides of her body. Priyanka struggling to get away, covers up to weather the abuse better, but only manages to survive when she clinches up with Kat to prevents more incoming damage. Round ends and it's a one-sided affair for Ms Winnick, and a testament to how far she's grown as a fighter.

ROUND 4:
HISC officials looking half-worried, half-relieved during the commercial break, part of them up-in-arms because of that shutout round that Chopra just suffered prior, but the other part breathing easy with their girl having conquered her highest peak. Both ladies still breathing hard as they go back to basics: jabs flicked at the head, occasional hooks blasting back into the arms and of course a loose uppercut or two barely avoiding the chin as these two go all-out wild at trying to put each other down. Katheryn struggling, to be honest, thinking she's already knocked Chopra down a peg with that beautiful, one-sided round three, and now still having to contend with another resurgence. Priyanka actually gaining steam towards the final minute, enacting flurries of jabs into Kat's face and body, and driving her back into her old, defensive stance. Before Winnick can retaliate with guns of her own, the bell rings clear and loud in her ear, giving the round wide back to Chopra.

ROUND 5:
The story of these two is of constant back-and-forth action. Priyanka trying to break up the pattern but gets rocked by an early left hook from Winnick that shocks her stumbling to the side. Winnick methodical, advancing forward, banging bigger and bigger liver shots into the HISC starlet's body, enjoying the winces and gasps of pain from Chopra's lips as she lets her leather do the talking. But Chopra covers up again even after being sent back into the ropes, takes a late beating to her tummy but then wraps up arms with Winnick in a tight clinch. Girls growl in each other's embrace, but it's Kat who's really at the disadvantage here as her momentum is stopped cold. Even after the referee breaks them apart and resets them at an arm's length, Winnick can't recapture the same magic with Priyanka circling herself back out of range with a sly smile on her face. The Doll takes the round back this time, but again fails to put her rival properly on her back.

ROUND 6:
Girls slow down as we enter the second half of this fight. Priyanka now on the defensive as she keeps Kat away with constant jabs to the face. But Winnick needs little deterrent, also looking gassed as she hunches those shoulders and blocks, rarely stomping forward and blasting away like last time. Second minute and Chopra perhaps realises this vulnerability, roars in like a tidal wave. Kat grunting as her body's targeted by low swings from Chopra into her sides, the Indian goddess battering down her gates and walking her back into the ropes this time. Katheryn hits some cheap shots into the chin but they pale in comparison to the bombs that Chopra's flinging and landing right back. Reversal of fortunes as Kat tries to go forwards for a clinch, only this time, Chopra's the one in charge and with the close-fighting experience, bodies the blonde up along the ropes and continues sinking upwards shots into her body. Left right left right hup hup hup HUPP as those elbows sink in and out, in and out, leaving a mewing Winnick hugging her midsection as the bell rings, and the ref having to pull the grinning Indian off of her.

ROUND 7:
The Doll can't afford to get bullied like that in close quarters, and darned if she thinks otherwise. Katheryn roaring back in the first minute alone, surprising Chopra with a left swipe across the face that's followed by a right hand buried into the gut. It's payback time and Kat lets everyone in the arena know it! If Priyanka was thinking that she was down and beat, Kat letting her think twice with another hook sent across the face, sending her careening into the ropes! Crowd with a ROAR of their own as Winnick goes charging after her, sinking in another one-two into the body before a third big HOOK across the face sends the big girl sprawling DOWN to the ground!

It's one hell of a KNOCKDOWN for Kat Winnick in the seventh round! Cheers from the Dollhouse corner as Winnick finally gets her revenge after seven hard-fought laps! The blonde is immensely relieved, slumping her back into the corner and awaiting the air to clear around Chopra's head. But Priyanka is far from done, folks, gritting her teeth as she herself rises back up using the ropes for leverage. HISC corner shouting at her to hurry - the referee's already at the count of 7 and she's barely off one knee. Will Winnick take the cake tonight? NO! Priyanka returns to shaky feet just before the count of 10! Referee waves for the last two minutes of this round to resume!

That look of disappointment on Winnick's face is either priceless or heartbreaking. The Doll was expecting to secure a win here against a hated gatekeeper to the belts and a stain on her otherwise mostly pristine record, but now has to push herself a little further. Chopra already on her feet, taking large gulps of air as she steadies herself for the attack that's sure to come. Winnick willing herself forward, like a coiled spring suddenly lunging at Chopra with powerful shots into her arms, but can't quite score the same magic as last time when her punches all land on the big girl's guard. Priyanka blocking and moving, trying to survive this round long enough to make it to the next round... until she absolutely doesn't, counter-slapping a right hook across Winnick's face and DAZING the older woman with an HNGUUGGH!! Winnick wasn't expecting retaliation, that's for sure! The blonde is turned to the side AGAIN by another quick and stiff blow to the face! Priyanka letting her punches RIP before her foe even realises what the hell's happening! A THIRD such hook SPINS her hapless opponent about on her feet, and KAT WINNICK REDUCED to a blubbering mess as she CRUSHES TO THE MAT CHEST-FIRST! It's an epic third minute comeback KNOCKDOWN for big Choppy!!

Holy smokes! These two really do NOT like each other, don't they?! It wasn't enough for Priyanka to simply weather her rival's onslaught and then stake a comeback in the next round. No, she had to go right for the kisser after a minute of her lips touching the ground! And what a smooch of leather it was! Winnick looking extremely woozy and glassy-eyed as she blinks back tears, trying to push herself off and get back into this fight. But that jaw of hers must be stinging' badly. Chopra already resting in neutral corner, not celebrating pre-maturely but laying her butt against the turnbuckle, that powerful body of hers ready to go another three rounds if need be! But sadly, Winnick’s body has apparently had enough - the blonde only manages to get to all fours before collapsing back down, eyes squeezed shut, powerless to do anything as the ref hits the count of 10! This fight is OVER in comeback and shocking fashion!

Official Decision: Priyanka Chopra defeats Katheryn Winnick via KO7!

AFTER:
Sad day indeed for Ms Winnick as she tries again to take out the big brunette, only to find herself knocked out twice by big Choppy. Priyanka letting out a shout of victory as she parades around the ring, no doubt already planning punishment for the Doll to deter a third run at her supremacy. Priyanka standing there, cockily eyeing Winnick's prone, squirming frame, and the Dollhouse corner is already bristling by ring-side, ready to come to Winnick's aid at the slightest hint of provocation.

Priyanka making her move suddenly and with purpose, striding over to Winnick and rolling the half-conscious blonde to her back using her boot, then planting it square down into the middle of Winnick’s stomach, making the blonde groan out loud as she grinds that foot into the midsection. Priyanka wanting to send a message as she hisses down: "Had enough, blondie? Don't waste your time or my time challenging me again. You're too old for this, Kat. I’m hearing there’s talk about a new cougar division…maybe you should focus on that."

Chopra still grinning, reaching down grabbing a fistful of blonde hair, no doubt intending to drag Winnick back to her own corner for more shenanigans. At this point, however, the Dolls have had enough, and Carmen Electra, Kristanna Loken and Hayley William all slide under the ropes to confront Chopra all at once. Priyanka staring these newcomers to the ring down at first, calculating in her head whether she can take all three of them down singlehandedly, but then backing off with an evil smile and hands up in mock surrender.

"Sure. I’m done here anyway…Don’t let her fight me again, Carm. I'll end her career for good next time. I promise!" Priyanka says with a sly grin as she heads back to her corner.

The last thing we see is the Dollhouse staff kneeling down beside Winnick's battered frame, the medics trying to bring her around to face her bitter defeat. Priyanka drawing a mixture of jeers and cheers as she heads back up the ramp, but damned if she cares what the crowd thinks after winning another important victory here tonight, over a potential challenger for the Bantamweight belt itself.
