Results: Lookout!; Story: Vassago

BEFORE: Australian model Leah Perkins made her FCBA debut all the way back in 2019 when she fell to Kiernan Shipka and spend the last three years building her resume over in BBU. She's ready to make another run on this side of the Atlantic with Bondi's manager Kylie Minogue apparently seeking a beach boxing spot on the upcoming Boiling Point PPV as well.

Over in the red corner we have Chloe Grace Moretz who has clawed her record over .500 thanks to a string of good results in the last few months and suddenly finds herself ranked #16 by Boxing World Online. LCA coach Eva Mendes is proud of the job the Atlanta native has put in lately and calls her the second most improved fighter of the last twelve months - behind only Dove Cameron. Will this be enough to overcome the mysterious Aussie model coached by pro boxer Lauryn Eagle though? Let's find out!

Leah Perkins wears a teal green bikini set & golden gloves. Long dark brown hair tied in a curled ponytail. Chloe Moretz wears a red bikini set & black gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a custom ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the flyweight division.

Round 1:
Chloe sets the early jabbing tone and lands several crisp shots into the brunette's face but Leah refuses back off and tries to slug it right back at the blonde actress only to find Moretz's overhand response too hot to handle down the stretch. Both women dish out promising close range heat to please the audience but Chloe gets the better revenue when she tags Leah's temples and bursts through with an uppercut double to finally send the Aussie model into a regular retreat. Perkins tries to hold her own with some single swings from behind the guard but she's fooling no one with such display and only invites Moretz to blast more slugging power which the blonde duly follows as she traps the reeling model on the turnbuckle to close out the round.

Round 2:
Leah rallies around the high guard to land more head shots before Chloe finds her response but she struggles to punish the model in another close range dispute and eats a wild hook on the jaw in the process. Perkins lands more shots straight up the middle and shoves the stunned American onto the ropes where she works the Atlanta native to the body with great results. She catches Moretz on the solar plexus and profits from a clash of heads to deliver more gut-checking menace as the older girl struggles to escape the phone booth trap. Another back & forth slugging exchange seemingly allows Chloe to regain the edge but Leah blasts a hard combo on each temple to indicate otherwise as she keeps the blonde backed onto the ropes for remainder of the round.

Round 3:
More of the same in the third, Leah's slugging approach leaves Chloe chasing shadows when she's unable to dominate the phone booth action. Leah just lets it rip much to Kylie Minogue's delight and some fans inside the area ride the Aussie support train as well. Chloe gets vocal as she tries to outwork the dark-haired tourist but she bounces off the forearms and leaks more body shots come the middle minute instead. Leah pings more leather downstairs and gets clinched in desperate fashion but another clash of heads throws Moretz onto the ropes and allows the model to bang away in fury. She clocks Chloe G. on the jaw and steps in to hammer another wild set that cuts the blonde up right at the bell. Woof. Coach Eva Mendes is downright furious during the break and one might wonder if the Lioness bunch truly watched the Perkins tape or just took this fight for granted?

Round 4:
Chloe rushes her delivery and finds the Aussie model still seeking more phone booth success which leads into a hectic exchange in the center of the ring. Leah carries enough momentum to outwork the American actress but bounces off the top of her forehead just as the blonde logged a punch from the inside to punish the jaw. Perkins wobbles to her heels and simply cannot put significant weight behind her shots until she regains her footing. Problem is, Chloe just lashes out at her in swarming fashion and thumps her onto the ropes where she lands more quick shots to the body to neutralize the tourist for good. Leah shrieks out through the ordeal but eventually avoids more damage despite Moretz pouring some late heat downstairs.

Round 5:
Leah's brave tactical plan finally runs into a wall when she gets beaten for a vicious overhand and then sinks on soft knees following a head-ringing double on each temple. Chloe barks in delight when she blows another hook on the ear and avoids a looming clinch by sticking one more uppercut on the jaw to drop the brunette completely sideways. Leah refuses to back off and tries to swing one from her heels but only finds thin air while Chloe G. SMOKES her with a right hand on the jaw instead! PERKINS HITS THE CANVAS in ultra quick fashion and bursts into tearful spasms half-way through the count. Uh-oh!! That might do it! She remains down on her back and covers her face behind the gloves as the merciless count soon passes her by! KO5 Chloe Grace Moretz!!!

AFTER: This result might not be good enough for Chloe to threaten the BWO top ten ranking anytime soon but the Atlanta native claims she's got several names on her radar to keep the fans glued to the TV screen. On the other hand several pundits believe Leah Perkins showed enough skill to warrant another shot against the American opposition but maybe the Bondi Babes would be better off targeting someone ranked outside of Top 20? Stable manager Kylie Minogue vows to make amends for this disappointing loss next month already but refuses to single out Samara Weaving as the primary target.

Official Result: Chloe Grace Moretz def. Leah Perkins KO5.
