Before: Mary Winstead returns to the ring for her first bout after losing her FCBA Lightweight Title to Nina Agdal. MEW isn’t taking the easy route as she faces off against white hot, undefeated (11-0) Lily James of the League of Mighty Women.

“When have I ever taken an ‘easy route’ after a big loss. Believe me. losing my belt to Nina was painful in more ways than one,” says Mary at the prefight press meeting. “So picked Lily James who is a very impressive young fighter. I mean she knocked out my best frenemy Yvonne Strahovski and I can tell you that is not easy. Now she Lily is going to face the full ‘Winnie Winstead Experience’ and we’ll see how that goes.”

Lily James says: “I have a great deal of respect for Mary Winstead. I know she is one of the hardest fighters to beat and being able to do that would be a big milestone for me. I have been training hard to prepare for this fight. I am confident I am ready for Mary Winstead. We will see if she is truly ready for me.”

“Bold words,” comments Mary.

“It’s what I honestly think,” replies Lily. “I’m not trying to brag.”

“Oh, go ahead and brag. I’m used to it,” Mary says agreeably, “but I do usually make braggarts pay a price for it.”

“Then it is a good thing I am not a braggart. I simply state facts,” Lily continues. “The fact is that I feel ready for you and I wonder if you are truly ready for me.”

“Don’t worry about that, I’ll be ready, you can be sure of that,” Mary says.

“Then I think we should get this fight going. I actually eager to see how it turns out,” Lily says.

“So do I, “ Mary says and adds, “I don’t think you will like the result.”

“Maybe—but maybe not,” Lily returned.

THE WINNER LILY JAMES DEFEATS MARY ELIZABETH WINSTEAD TKO7!

After: “Wow! What a fight,” an excited Lily James tells the press. “I was really worried about Mary coming back after R6. We had studied her previous fights and knew if anyone could do it. She could. So I had to be ready to block her counterattack. That preparation really worked for me as I blocked her shots and nailed her with my counters. I think I am justified if thinking it’s time I had shot at the Lightweight Title. No, I haven’t talked to my management about it yet—but I feel I have earned.”

Its not until much later that Mary talks with the press: “Well, I don’t get to pick the opponents for the Lightweight Title shots anymore, but I would have agree at James has earned one. She is durable, smart and can hit hard. I have the lumps to prove it. Of course, it is discouraging to lose, but I am not about dwell on it. I will be back winning soon enough. That’s all I have to say about this fight.”

Quite an impressive win for Lily James. We don’t know about if she will get a Lightweight Title shot soon, but it sure looks like she has qualified for. Not many young fighters can say they have handled Mary Elizabeth Winstead this well, taking a lot of punishment, but fighting back to get a TKO win. MEW fought hard but her fabled toughness seems to have failed her in this fight as she was unable to come back from a bad beating in the 6th and got finished off in the 7th. Hopefully, this was only a glitch in Mary’s career and she will be back on the winning track very soon.
