Results: BBU; Story: Vassago

BEFORE: Joanna Krupa retains her status as Polish model #1 but the hard-hitting Paula Tumala claims it's time for a change - at least in the boxing universe. It's unsure how much these girls dislike each other - it's probably more down to jealousy - and all the differences can be amended over a bottle of vodka during the VIP afterparty however Polish Beauty manager Dorota 'Doda' Rabczewska wants these two leggy blondes to headline the Independence Day PPV first! Joanna says she's doing the singer a massive favor but well, it's Doda who set up her own stable while Joanna was busy presenting the 'Next Top Model' instead!

Joanna Krupa wears a red bikini set & black gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a braid. Paula Tumala wears a white bikini set & red gloves. Long blonde hair tied in a custom ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the bantamweight division.

Round 1:
Paula comes in hot and begins to land some hard punches into Joanna's face - the older model takes her time before finding a response but once she does a proper slugging contest kicks off and raises some early noise inside the Torwar arena. Both women seek immediate breakthrough and pound away in furious fashion trying to knock the opponent's head off before Paula switches her targets and works the uppercut route to lift Krupa's breasts. That's a welcomed sight but Joanna comes off a JMD title clash mere days ago so she's not gonna bail out upon impact here and she catches Tumala off guard with a left hook from the inside that sinks the younger blonde on her heels late in the round.

Round 2:
Joanna decides to channel the JMD route herself and does a better job blasting Paula up the cleavage during the opening minute before the fellow blonde clinches her and bumps off towards the ropes in jug-to-jug contact. Both women trade heavy albeit chaotic leather down there for majority of the round and while Joanna remains stuck in defensive position, she manages to land some quick overhands into Paula's face and keep her off balance and unable to follow through with significant power supply so the judges have a hard time picking a clear winner in this round.

Round 3:
More free swinging between the two women but this time Paula carries enough power to knock Joanna back off her stance and delivers a head-hunting charge which flushes the older model into a hectic retreat. Joanna tries to avoid getting locked in a trap but has to yield more real estate and struggles to connect with the counter-punches while Tumala continues to blow up the high-guard and punishes her face from both flanks until Krupa grinds into a halt behind a desperate earmuff cover to close out the round.

Round 4:
Paula picks up more head-hunting steam and begins to add visible lumps on Joanna's face as the head-hunting exchange dominates another round and backs the older blonde onto the ropes before too long. Joanna has to work the counter-punching drill to even match Paula's production and catches a lucky break when one of her hooks tears a small gash under the left eye. Tumala barks in anger and loses her composure, the short fuse slugging takes her nowhere and allows Krupa to methodically outbox her in counter-punching fashion instead.

Round 5:
Joanna thumps an early double into the younger blonde's face and begins to stack up more punches while Paula suddenly runs into a performance well and tries to regain it by blasting Krupa in the cleavage. A good idea that requires a better execution though especially that Joanna cripples her with a vicious piledriver in the solar plexus and slumps her on the heels before a laser hook nails Tumala on the nose and drops her into spasms. Woof. Joanna shoves a forearm in her boobs and slams a left harpoon on the liver area sending Doda's prospect down onto her knees amid a wild cheer from the audience! How about that! Paula hugs the aching spot and makes a very late recovery with the referee ready to wave the fight off but the crowd wants more action between these two blondes! Joanna offers a big smile to Doda in the opposite corner and whacks Paula in the chin a couple of times forcing the stunned woman to bellow out on the ropes where she soaks up more blows that bounce off her boobs and the exposed jaw until the towel is thrown to spare the ailing glamour model more punishment! TKO5 Joanna Krupa!!!

AFTER: One might argue that's a mild upset but Joanna remains good enough to beat anyone on her good day! She escorts the aching Paula back to the Polish Beauty corner and reminds Doda that she'll have to take care of the additional afterparty bills: "That's for making me watch all those Alesha Dixon tapes instead of casting me in the lead role!" (winks).

Back to Paula and her immediate rise up the rankings has hit a speed bump alas the PB stable can easily rely on Natalia Siwiec and Ola Ciupa to cover up for the short-term loss.

Official Result: Joanna Krupa def. Paula Tumala TKO5.
