Before: “Y’know, it was a GREAT idea to hold this promotional match at the beach, like who doesn't like seeing hot girls in bikinis beating each other up?” Imane says playfully to the press. “Anna and I have been sparring a ton, and she's good, but there's no doubt in my mind that I have what it takes to win today. Between you and me, I've already knocked her out a few times when our “sparring” got a little too rough,” she says as she looks over to Anna to gauge her reaction.

“Oh, please,” Anna retorts with a scoff. “I've been kicking your ass since day one of our training, don't think for a second you're gonna get the best of me.” She turns to the reporters, “As you can see, we don't always get along, but I think that makes us better fighters. Some better than others,” she says as she clears her throat, pointing to herself any mouthing “Me”.

Fight time comes around and Imane is out to the ring first, shedding her pink robe to reveal her fight outfit, a modest pink bikini with matching gloves. Her hair is tied up in two pigtails as she struts around the ring, playing to the crowd as she soaks in the beginning of her first ever official match in her career.

Anna comes out to the ring shortly after, removing her black robe to reveal her white bikini top and black board shorts, with white gloves on. Blonde hair tied back in a high ponytail as she jogs around the ring, passing Imane, who is waiting in her corner, arms on the ropes before she makes an exaggerated yawning motion. Anna doesn't take too kindly to this and gets in her face a bit, but not before the official can separate them. Anna goes back to her corner, ready to fight.

Both girls bounce barefoot in the sand, listening to the official go over the rules but keeping their eyes locked the entire time. When the official asks them if they want to tap gloves, Poki offers here first, and Anna accepts, bumping before immediately returning to their corners to start.

Round 1: Both ladies out to the center of the ring fast as lightning at the bell. They quickly go for an exchange, Cramling making out with the better end of it, ducking a right straight from Anys and returning an uppercut to the ribs. Anna keeping it cool, doing her best to not get overly aggressive, focusing on counter punching. Poki getting a few jabs and hooks into Anna's midsection, but receiving more than a few back. Left hook to the chin by Anna lands, following up with a right uppercut that smacks the underside of Poki’s rack, and you can tell it was effective by the moan that escapes her lips as it lands. It almost seems as though Anna is trying to target them, probably because she knows they're a weak point for her opponent. Two minutes into the round and Anna has her opponent backed into the ropes, sending a flurry of punches her way. Poki putting up a guard, but still getting caught with hooks that rock her chin and more gloved fists colliding with her breasts, making her panic as she's getting pummeled. A few more one sided exchanges land in favor of Anna before the bell rings, and she takes the round wide. Poki is left with one arm draped on the top rope, the other cradling her chest as she pants, before heading to her corner to recover for round two.

Round 2: Both girls move to meet in the center of the ring at the start of round 2, and Anna seems surprised that a battered Pokimane is keeping up with her. Anna looking to get aggressive, pushing in with a few left jabs toward the face, but Imane is ready, swatting them away and sending bombs back to Anna’s midsection, impaling her stomach with heavy rights in retaliation. The blows bend her over and she nearly loses her mouthguard, pushing it back into her mouth with her glove as she speedily retreats. Imane in hot pursuit, clearly having been told by her corner that this was her round to fire back, taking shots as Cramling as she retreats, landing some pressure as she chases her opponent around the ring. Anna pivots, holding her ground suddenly as the girls set up for a brawl near the ropes at the end of minute two. Ladies slugging, each landing shots on face, chest and belly before Poki lands an uppercut that seemingly knocks the wind out of Anna! She begins to backpedal, pushing against the ropes as Imane goes to work, pounding her belly with blow after blow as Anna turtles up, trying to catch her breath. She moves her guard down to cover her belly in the last few moments of the round and Poki moves upstairs, landing a hook flush on the blonde’s chin. Her knees wobble, left arm falling to the top rope to stabilize as another hook sends her face the other way, saliva spraying out of her mouth as the bell rings to save her. Imane looking noticeably annoyed, knowing this was her moment to finish, but she just didn’t have the time. Anna drooling out of her open mouth as she stumbles to her corner, unsure of what just happened as Imane took that round wide.

Round 3: You can tell these girls have been training hard, as both of them respond to the bell once more as if on instinct, coming out after having each taken their own share of a beating. Slower start to the round, less explosive action off the bell as both ladies meet and conservatively jab at one another, keeping their guards tight and not committing too much to any one strike. Ladies trading even into the second minute of the round, jabs are being responded to with jabs, until Poki decides to up the tempo a bit. Waiting for another punch, she swats it away and follows with a quick uppercut to an unsuspecting Anna’s belly, catching her off guard and knocking her up on her toes. Her guard falters for a moment, and Imane capitalizes, following with a hook to her jaw. Doesn’t quite look like it hurt her too bad, as she takes a few steps back and gets her guard back in order. As Imane chases, Anna uses her jab to keep her opponent at bay until the end of the round, splitting at the bell with a sigh of relief that it didn’t go any worse for her. Round goes narrowly to Imane.

Round 4: If you couldn’t tell last round, you can certainly tell now that these ladies are starting to get tired. Not uncommon for new fighters, but this is what separates the champions from the rookies, who can keep fighting. Both girls’ skin glistening with sweat as the hot sun beats down on them and they meet again for another round. First minute same as round 3, conservative exchanges, not too much commitment in the strikes, though this time Anna is gaining a bit of ground in the exchanges, trying her best to work Poki toward the ropes. It looks like her plan is working, as entering the second minute, Poki is less than a foot away from the ropes as Anna decides now is the time to take action. She ducks a jab from Imane, putting her full body into rising a powerful uppercut to her opponent’s ribs, landing with a loud thud as the blow knocks her back into the ropes. A few more shots from Anna to Poki’s vulnerable chest while she is trying to shake it off land before Poki reaches out and grabs Anna into a tight clinch, their sweaty bodies in contact as Imane lies on top of Anna for a moment before the ref breaks them up. Last seconds of the round see Imane backing away, trying to time out the round to get a better recovery. Bell rings and Anna takes the round.

Round 5: This round is mostly a clinch-fest, with Imane backing away with a jab, clinching when Anna gets too close, and generally running away. It’s not all her fault though, as it is clear that Anna is taking the round off as much as she can. Both ladies appear to be pretty gassed, beads of sweat running down their faces and chests as they continue to lazily move around each other, throwing pot shots but mostly staying away from major conflict. Not much is gained or lost by the bell, and the round is a draw.

Round 6: Imane comes out of the gate looking much more energetic than her opponent, probably on account of all the time she spent laying on Anna during the clinches the past few rounds. Poki meets Anna close to Anna’s corner, looking to put the pressure on immediately by coming in hot with some work to the body. Anna does her best to sidestep the charge, getting hammered by a right hook that makes her wince, but stepping away from the corner with her guard up. Imane pivots, moving back toward the center of the ring before making a concerted effort to push Anna into the ropes with more body work, pummeling her midsection until Anna is at the ropes. Imane switches, shooting a right uppercut upstairs that lands flush on Anna’s chin, snapping her head back and clearly dazing her. One arm falls to the ropes, one arm trying to defend in vain as Poki uses Anna’s bare belly as a punching bag, throwing in a couple uppercuts to jugs for good measure before a right hook to the chin sends Anna spinning to the sand on her back. Ref comes over to begin counting and Anna gets to her gloves and knees at 4, crawling to the ropes to try to use them like a ladder to get to her feet. Up on her knees at 8, but she falls back down to Earth, nothing left in the tank as she closes her eyes and the count passes her by KO6 for Imane “Pokimane” Anys in her FCBA Debut!

After: Poki elated at her victory in her first official match, jumping up and down excitedly before striking a victory pose over Anna, placing her foot on the blonde’s stomach and grinding it in a bit, making Anna wince in pain. She doesn’t hold it for too long, just enough for the photographers to get some shots. “It feels SO good to have knocked her ass out, and to claim my first of many victories in the ring. She’s definitely a tough girl, and I believe we both are going to go far in the FCBA,” Imane says to the reporters after the bout. “At the end of the day, we’re still partners. Maybe we don’t get along all the time, but we can put on a hell of a show, I think,” Anna remarks after she’s roused and patched up by her corner.
