BEFORE:

"I've been wondering why I haven't gotten invited to one of these ABC things," says Hayley with a smile. "Then, I remembered what happened the last time I fought a Front Street girl. I blew off McCurdy's doors. Well. Different Front Street girl tonight. Same result."

"See, the mistake Hayley makes," says Lili with a shake of the head, "Is thinking I'm on par with Jennette McCurdy. And, I'm about to disabuse her of that notion."

ROUND ONE:



O'Dell: "Back at ringside and that's 'Strong, Sweet, & Southern' you hear behind us, and here comes the singer of that tune, the lovely star of ABC's 'The Goldbergs', Hayley Orrantia!"

McCarthy: "She's not a bad singer. Not good enough to get on 'The Masked Singer', mind..."

Tess: "Orrantia a girl Front Street management is high on, BFF..."

Cassie: "They are. She's been in a slump lately, but there's plenty of talent there..."

O'Dell (sighing): "Hayley into the ring and healped off with the robe by the Odds and Ends corner crew. She's looking VERY good in that magenta number she's wearing."

McCarthy: "Well. She's not 'PLAYBOY' material..."

Tess: "Last fight of the night, BFF..."

Cassie: "Good, because I have an itchy pudding finger..."

O'Dell: "AAAAANNNND that's 'What I've Done' by Linkin Park pounding through the arena, and here comes 'Diamond' Lili Reinhart!"

Cassie: "We've talked tonight about how strong the Front Street bantam division is. Lili's 14-1 career and coming off a big win over former champ Elisha Cuthbert. Add a win tonight, and she might well be in the title mix with Kat and Chloe..."

O'Dell: "Lili into the ring and helped off with the robe by Jewel and Neve. She's wearing that white two-piece we've seen before and the crowd showing its appreciation. Ladies about ready to go. time for some picks. Tess likes Lili. Mac?"

McCarthy: "Reinhart's a Dancing Hooker. Orrantia has beaten those before. She'll do it again."

O'Dell: "Cassie?"

Cassie: "I agree with Tess!"

O'Dell: "There's the bell and Orrantia wasting no time coming after Lili. Reinhart wants distance, but the brunette very aggressive here, crowding, backing up the blonde. Front Streeter can't be surprised by these tactics, because this is the style the brunette likes to fight..."

McCarthy: "She could be surprised. Because she's dumb and so are her trainers!"

O'Dell: "Hayley is at WORK right now. She's digging body, backing up the blonde She's in total command here early. No question the brunette wants to shake what's been a long slump, and she's going about it the right way, taking the fight right to Reinhart and piling up points..."

Tess: "And punishment."

O'Dell: "That, too. We're into the final seconds of the first round, and Orrantia's been on the offensive the entire way. Blonde trying to bang back in spots, but she's on the back foot and the brunette is keeping her there. Five seconds to go. Good right by Hayley and there's the bell. Orrantia. Wide."

Cassie: "And, she's up 10-9."



ROUND TWO:



O'Dell: "Second round sees more aggression from the brunette and it's being met in kind by the blonde. Firefight in the middle of the ring now, as Orrantia tries to retain the upper hand and Reinhart isn't having it. GOOD right by Lili backs up Hayley and Reinhart letting the hands go!"

Cassie: "Crowd is getting INTO this..."

O'Dell: "As they should be, because the action is fast and furious and LILI ROCKS HAYLEY WITH A RIGHT HAND! Orrantia steppin' in fence post holes now as Reinhart backs her into the ropes. Brunette in a high guard and Lili goes body to try to bring it down."

Tess: "Ref looking in closely..."

O'Dell: "Hayley tying up, trying to run some clock here. Blonde shoves free and lands a SHARP combination! Brunette covering up, jabbing back in spots, trying to make it to the bell here. Just a few ticks left on the clock, and she'll run them off and remain on her feet. Reinhart. Wide."

McCarthy: "19-19 after two."



ROUND THREE:



O'Dell: "Lili forward to start the third. Walking in behind the left jab, backing Hayley up with hard right hands. Orrantia giving the ground, executing a fighting retreat as she tries to get the legs back under her. Blonde not making that easy for her, continuing the pressure."

McCarthy: "Hayley's doing a good job staying off the ropes."

O'Dell: "Is, indeed, but she's taking the worst of things as we head into the second half of the round. Good right from Lili, BETTER RIGHT FROM ORRANTIA! Brunette HURTS the blonde with a right hand counter! And, now it's HAYLEY going onto the offensive with Lili in retreat..."

Cassie: "Really keyholed that punch."

O'Dell: "Hayley banging away as she forces Lili backward. She's working to make up quite a stagger here, because Reinhart built a big lead in the first half. Hayley traps her rival along the cables and lets the hands go, banging away right to the bell. Not much in it. Reinhart in the first 90, Orrantia in the second. Draw."

Tess: "And, we're still dead even. 29-29."



ROUND FOUR:



O'Dell: "Orrantia on the attack as we start the fourth. Blonde still wobbly and the brunette knows it. She's sitting down on punches, getting inside and working body, showing that excellent in fighting we've seen from her before. Lili tying up, trying to slow her rival down."

Tess: "And, not having a lot of success, because Orrantia's getting plenty of work done."

O'Dell: "Indeed, she is. She's got everything working right now. Lili, meanwhile, countering here and there, but not able to do much else. Orrantia pressing down harder and harder on the pedal working head and body, keeping the blonde in retreat. Lili ties up again..."

Cassie: "Hayley levers nicely."

O'Dell: "And works some more body. Final twenty seconds of the round. There's another good combination by Orrantia. If anyone watching is wondering why Front Street has made no secret of how much it thinks of Hayley Orrantia, well. There's all the evidence you need. And, there's the bell. Orrantia wide."

McCarthy: "And, she's got the 39-38 lead."



ROUND FIVE:



O'Dell: "Hayley forward, backs up Lili. Reinhart again giving some ground. Legs seem to be coming around now, though. Blonde starting to hold canvas and bang back. Orrantia not cowed, firing more heavy leather at her blonde rival. GOOD right Hayley and a rejoinder from Lili!"

Cassie: "Neither of these girls afraid to punch."

O'Dell: "And both can TAKE a punch, too. SHARP exchange sees Reinhart back Orrantia up a step. And, Lili into the breach, keeping the brunette on the back foot now. She's committing on her punches, forcing Hayley into retreat. Orrantia trying to hold canvas and can't get it done..."

McCarthy: "Watch those body shots from Reinhart. Some of those are LOW..."

O'Dell: "They are NOT low. They are, however, effective, as are the shots to the head that are not only keeping Hayley from coming forward but slowly backing her up. Just five seconds left in the fifth. GOOD exchange there and both fighters land a good right hand before the bell. Close. Lili."

Tess: "And we are dead even at 48 at the half."



ROUND SIX:



O'Dell: "Second half begins with Hayley working forward and Lili there to meet her and HERE WE GO! Leather flying as the fighters thump away and REINHART ROCKS ORRANTIA WITH A RIGHT HOOK! Hayley rumblin', stumblin', fumblin' and nearly going down!"

Tess: "That was a NASTY hook..."

O'Dell: "Hayley did well to ship it and stay afloat, but the blonde's all about sinking the S.S. Orrantia right now. She's driving all before her, forcing Hayley against the cables and going to work. Brunette in a high guard, blocking, rolling with, putting the body on sale..."

Cassie: "And, Lili is buying in bulk..."

O'Dell: "That she is. We're down the stretch now, with Orrantia taking a licking. Referee looking in as Reinhart looks for the finisher, but can't find it. She digs more ribs and belly, before landing a solid right hand at the bell. No doubt about the sixth. Reinhart and wide."

McCarthy: "And, the blonde is up 58-57, but she might have blown a big chance to win this thing."



ROUND SEVEN:



O'Dell: "Reinhart pressing the matter as we start the seventh. She's forward behind that left jab, sitting down on punches, backing up the still-wobbly brunette with hard shot. Hayley giving ground, playing defense, keeping the guard high. Looking to play for a little time here..."

McCarthy: "Smart. She's right in this fight. Get the legs back right now."

O'Dell: "Lili not going along with that program. She's not giving Orrantia time or space, instead continuing the heavy pressure and heavier leather. Hayley tying up. Ref gets in there and breaks then. Reinhart back to work, banging away with hard shot and DROPPING HAYLEY WITH A RIGHT HAND!"

Cassie: "NASTY punch!"

O'Dell: "And, it drops Orrantia to her back! Blonde quickly to a neutral corner. Referee's count at three, four, five. Hayley rolling to her belly at six. Up to hands and knees at seven. Crawling to the ropes at eight. Trying to climb them at ninnnneeee...TEN! It's OVER! Hayley still on her knees as the count passes her by and the winner by KO7 is 'Diamond' Lili Reinhart!"

Tess: "Good fight and a big win for Lili."

AFTER:

O'Dell: "Let's go up to the ring and Tess Valmore!"

Tess: "I have our winner, Lili Reinhart, and, Lili, you had to work hard to finish..."

Lili (nodding): "Not surprised, either. Heard from everybody at Front Street all month about how good this girl actually is. And, they weren't wrong. She's got the goods."

Tess: "But, you came up with a big win, another step toward your goal of getting into the title picture..."

Lili (smiling): "No doubt about it. And, that's the focus this year. Get a shot at that gold."
