BEFORE:
Spanish derby tonight, and Clara Alonso looking a little upset during the pre-fight interview. Could it be the fact that we haven’t seen the girl in action in a long while? Though it could also be that her opponent tonight is only here because of her soccer WAG credentials. Surely, Malena Costa would still be a little lesser-known Spanish woman (albeit an incredibly hot one) if it weren’t for her marriage to professional footballer Mario Suárez.

“HA. I think she’s only good for running and jumping and spreading those legs. I have not seen her boxing skills at all,” Clara laughing with the opening salvo directed at Malena’s corner.  “Honestly, I’d wish management would stop feeding me Spanish girls for me to destroy. Give me a Portuguese dinner any day,” she laughs along with the rest of the crowd.

Malena though looking stern and confident, despite this being her debut. True, she might not have been in the ring professionally, but golly, take one look at that toned body of hers and you’d wonder where else she’s been busy with. Since her marriage to Mario, she’s been on the cover of Elle, Swatch, and countless other named brands, something Clara could only dream about.

“I’m happy to be here. Clara is a fellow Spaniard, and a fellow model, and to be very honest, I don’t know much else about her. She didn’t seem very friendly backstage though--”

“That’s because you don’t deserve to be here, chica,” Clara cutting in, folding her arms across her chest in frustration.

“Well, I am here. So let’s have a great fight tonight.”

Nice girl and jealous girl refusing to touch gloves later in the ring, with Clara already making ready to charge at the newcomer even before the bell rings. Malena on the other hand with those doe-like eyes, making us truly question whether she can take the heat in there. Well, let’s find out. There goes the bell and HERE we go with ten rounds of Lightweight action!


ROUND 1:
As predicted, there goes Clara Alonso, sailing at the newcomer at lightspeed. She’s a smart gal, looking to end this fight prematurely and nib the rebellion in the bud. Jabs pound on Malena’s hasty guard as she yelps and retreats for the majority of the round, shocked and awed by the sudden onslaught. Truly, it’s being thrown into the fire that shows one’s true colours, and Malena’s colours are starting to run. Well, at least she’s not getting knocked down anytime soon, those toned and tanned forearms impressively looking impregnable even with strong hooks landing from Alonso’s corner. Still, let’s not kid ourselves - Malena like a young kid treading water to stay afloat, gets her tummy pounded on as she can’t defend both her head and body at the same time just yet. Clara with a huge grin plastered on her face, raised arm when the bell ends three minutes, thinking the rest of this fight is gonna be a similar cakewalk.

ROUND 2:
Round 2 and Clara not letting up, using a lot of her energy reserves to hound and pressure the rookie. Malena getting swamped yet again, but keen observers are seeing that the new Spaniard is adapting quickly, using her feet to get the f*ck outta the way much earlier than the last time, hence denying Clara’s aggression a little more. Malena trying her hand at this so-called punching thing in the middle of the second minute, some weak jabbing at Clara’s head more an irritation than anything else. Alonso seems to smirk behind those gloves of hers, before WHAP - she knocks the chin backwards with a straight hand to show Costa how it’s done. Malena beginning to dread her involvement in this whole charade as she struggles to establish her own style and pace this early on. Round ends and it’s Clara’s again, though the Siren must be wondering to herself why it’s taking so long to knock this newbie down to the ground.

ROUND 3:
Here we go with the third… Clara striding out of corner, but noticeably slower, taking her time to recharge. Malena cautious at first, tries to advance with a jab-jab at Clara’s head, then suddenly manages to score with another one-two-punch combo that lands stiffly into Clara’s stomach. The Siren grunts, frustration flaring at the thought of getting violated so easily, and so she charges right back! Malena taking a rapid flurry to the guard, Clara winding back her right hand for another clean power hook meant to bring down those walls, when suddenly - BLAM - a right hand surges upwards and crashes into her chin outta nowhere! Uppercut from Costa as she swings in to disrupt her opponent’s flow! OUCH. Alonso’s head snaps backwards painfully as she goes flying and wondering what the hell just hit her. Malena perhaps not even sure herself as she refuses to give chase. Both girls warily circle each other and there’s a lull in the action for the remaining minute. Wow, though - Costa with that blast out of nowhere in the middle!

ROUND 4:
Clara still shaking the stars from her eyes as she sets Malena with a heavy glare, before chugging forward again. The Siren of course looking more serious this time, hiding her head behind gloves in case Malena tries another stunt like last time. Malena punching a little more now, confident at last of at least being capable of scoring blows on her foe. She peppers Clara’s forearms with punches, but receives little purchase. Clara taking it, patient, before suddenly counter-punching with more straight lefts and rights into Malena’s body, pounding those abs from afar and leaving her winded. Costa grunting, stunned again as she hadn’t expected it to hurt so much. Her hopes of actually winning this fight seem to dim by the second, especially when more body attacks come her way, Clara just timing her punches in between the punches directly at her face, swinging a nasty hook into Malena’s side in the final few seconds and making her stumble off in pain and misery. Alonso’s round yet again, and we wonder how much longer Malena can last like this?

ROUND 5:
Clara trying for the same strategy as the fourth, coming at Malena in a straight line, bent low and making her head and body scarce. Malena at first having trouble dealing with this turtle-formation tetsudo, her punches deemed ineffective, like arrows bouncing off a turtle’s shell. But like we said, she’s a fast learner. She learns that she can’t possibly brawl with something like that, instead moves out of the way of Clara’s path of destruction and letting her counterpart tire herself out in the first two minutes. Smart kid. Clara left panting hard by this moment, her guard flimsy and probably thinking she’s done enough at least to swing the round back in her favour again. But Malena’s far from done herself, choosing this exact time to counter-attack. Clara suddenly frenzied, fending off multiple jabs to the face and body. Costa relentlessly fighting forward, hurting her all the way to the ropes. Alonso suddenly in trouble as she can’t escape, her tummy receiving a good pounding with straight attacks coming in left right center. Last few seconds and Malena ROARS inwards, right hand JACKED up into the model’s midsection, bending her over in half with a HOUUUFFF and low groan. Malena grinning for the first time this fight as she leaves a winded and wounded Alonso clinging onto the top rope to keep herself from tilting over. Costa takes the round back this time!


ROUND 6:
Suddenly, this fight is thrown wide open, ladies and gentlemen, with the rookie turning the tables on the Siren. But can she keep her current lead? Bell rings and she certainly hopes to do just that - Malena now the one striding forward, a spring in her step as she begins jabbing in Clara’s direction almost immediately. Clara troubled, but certainly able to handle a couple of right hands… that is until her body starts taking punishment again, Costa wisely going after the bruised midsection after the shellacking she dished out last round. Clara with no answer for that at this point, gets STUNNED with another left-right-left combo straight to the belly and chest. Malena with a quick stride in and LIFTS the Spaniard’s head into orbit, sending her crashing down onto her side! WHAT - KNOCKDOWN FOR THE NEWBIE! Knockdown for Malena Costa!! Malena with some power to her punches of her own as she takes Clara Alonso down in the bare first minute!

3...4… Clara still alive and squirming, checking her jaw with one hand as she struggles to rise back to her feet in pain. Referee performing the count steadily, whilst Malena seems like she’s already celebrating in her own corner, her trainers congratulating her on the first knockdown of the match. However, Clara managing to get back up by the count of 8 spoils their fun... her feet still shaky though as she holds onto the ropes for support.

There’s one more minute and already Malena’s corner is shouting instructions into her ear at how to put Clara away for good. DING. Here she comes, making a beeline for her. Clara still not moving from her position on the ropes however. Malena striking the open body with quick pounding, then she preps a leftward hook to Clara’s face, hoping to win this debut. But Clara DUCKS under at the last moment, swerving her head downwards to one side. Malena’s face BLASTED in reply as Clara seeks revenge of her own with a return right hook, and subsequently, it’s an all out SLUG FEST as the two Spaniards pound away in close quarters, for the first time letting it all hang loose and ignoring any sort of defensive guard. Clara perhaps furious as she grinds her teeth and swings for the fences, burying her own fist into Malena’s belly button on several occasions. She swerves to avoid another hook from Costa, then surges forward to clinch up, rotating the newcomer around so that her back’s now pressed into the ropes with nowhere to go. Look of panic in Malena’s eyes as this becomes unfamiliar territory to her, especially when Clara shoves an arm straight up into her throat, choking her windpipe, before using her other hand to DRILL into her body over and over again. Just like that - the rookie’s lead evaporating before her eyes, which are watering from the abuse down below and from the lack of oxygen above. Referee has seen enough when Clara, still fury in her eyes, starts packing in her fist a little too far south, slamming her glove into Malena’s bikini briefs and too close to her womanhood. When the bell rings, it’s Malena who bowls over and collapses to her knees, clutching at her groin and looking utterly decimated even though she took the round with that early knockdown. Clara seething, still trying to lunge back at her opponent but is held back by the referee. BOY do these girls really not like each other. We’re heading into the long haul, folks!


ROUND 7:
Malena still massaging her extremities when the bell rings to start the seventh. Clara looking to brawl again as she comes forward quickly, but doesn’t expect the same fire to be in Malena’s eyes until it’s too late. The two girls CLASH in the center of the ring, as though it’s make or break time. Malena surprisingly able to hold her ground as she clinches up with Clara and delivers her own shocking right hands deep into her body and chest. Clara not to be outdone, going up top and smacking the Spaniard’s face inwards with constant hooks to the side of her face. But Malena like a single-purposed valkyrie as she shoves and pushes their bodies forward, keeping her head close to Clara’s to avoid the punches whilst still digging and swiping at Clara’s undercarriage below. Clara soon with her mouth open, lips sucking air on shoulder as the wind is forced out of her lungs one punch at a time. She’s driven backwards into the ropes without realising it, held in the same position as before, but now the one receiving death from above. Another uppercut into the body lifts Clara clean off her feet, shattering the guard above as she has little choice but to hold onto Costa’s shoulders for support as the rest of her body sags into waiting arms. Bad move - Malena taking another swig upwards, right hands chopping up into Clara’s jawline one, two, three whap whap WHAAPPP, and Clara goes glassy-eyed again, swaying in freefall on her legs as she looks primed to fall face-forward flat to the ground. Malena NOT done with her though! Opts to send her a further goodbye gift with a final punch packed into the belly, folding the poor girl over in half with a low gurgle. SECOND knockdown of the match, ladies and gents, and it goes to the newcomer yet again!!


SURELY this has to be it?? Malena taking her time, stepping back and observing the carnage she’s wrought: Clara drooling on canvas, face-down but on her knees and trying to recover, with her butt still piercing the air complicating things. Costa retreating to her corner again to recuperate, too tired to acknowledge her corner’s even louder shouts of joy. However, there’s a collective silence when Clara starts pulling herself back up using the ropes, followed by another gasp of disbelief when she actually manages to do so by the count of 9.5. F*ck it, ref. You sure you weren’t counting too slowly?? He does his job, examining Clara for permanent damage, but doesn’t realise he should be checking on Malena instead... Only now do we realise that those face punches done some work: a small trickle of red flowing down one of her eyebrows and onto her cheek, but she’s too tired to even realise it.

For two newcomers, this fight is entering the eighth round - something practically unheard of usually. Clara lives to fight another round, but we wonder what’s going through her mind now compared to her feelings before this fight even started.


ROUND 8:
The eighth and here we go again - referee keeping a close watch on either woman as they take small steps forward. Malena’s cut already patched up with a bandage - she didn’t lose a lot of blood, still looking semi-conscious and ready to go. Clara on the other hand is swaying precariously on her feet, that second knockdown would have felled any other woman, and honestly no one would have really blamed her if she had chosen to stay down that time. But no - here she is, standing again, determined to see this through. She throws a halfhearted jab-jab at Malena’s head - a flicker of hope as they land in quick succession on Malena’s lips... But the moment Malena fires back, it’s all downhill for her.... Clara barely putting up resistance as hook after hook swipe at her face left and right, Malena coming onto her in full force and simply throwing everything she has left in the tank. Clara still standing after a third such hook swivels her around 180 degrees - the Siren still trying to lunge forward to clinch up and survive to fight another day. Malena not allowing it to happen though, keeping her hands and arms in tight, then BLASTING a double-uppercut up into the chin as Clara comes in close! Head sent into orbit as she appears suspended on her feet for a brief moment, torso swaying back and forth as though undecided whether to collapse face-first or onto her back. ANOTHER uppercut into her gut aids in the decision-making process, sending Clara sprawling DOWN onto her side, this time KNOCKED OUT for good. It’s finally over!

Official Decision: Malena Costa defeats Clara Alonso via KO8 in Fight of the Night fashion!

AFTER:
What a brawl from two ladies looking to make a mark for themselves. They’ve certainly fought the good fight here tonight, although tell that to the loser of the match and see whether she gets any consolation prizes. Clara completely unmoving as saliva pools by the side of her mouth, her arms and legs sprawled in all four directions. Medics immediately flood the ring hoping to prevent any further damage, with Head Trainer Henry Cavill also one of the firsts to arrive by his girl’s side.

Malena by contrast quickly escorted out of the ring and backstage by her own team, the totality of the fight as a whole just too much for the rookie to bear, now that it’s finally over as well. Her trainers catching her before she passes out in front of the crowds herself, pausing the celebrations for another time and place.

Regardless of outcome tonight, there’s already excited chatter coming from the rafters and backstage personnel. Surely these two girls would like to meet each other in the ring someday again?
