REEBOK FLYWEIGHT TITLE

Posted by Simguy on 5/19.2002, 9:29 am.

Before: Hannigan earning a rep as a feather fisted worked who brings a sizable fan base, fights just well enough to lose--she’s an ideal intern bout for a Packard-class fighter. Kelly staying busy, recognizing the difficulty Alyson gave Reid and Danes, but insisting, “Alyson will taste the championship difference. She puts trial horses through their paces--a thoroughbred’s going to leave her behind.” Hannigan in her sturdy red bandeau bikini, demi-hipster bottoms--Packard in black string bikini.

During R1: Kelly working off her front foot jab-cross-hook routine. Hannigan with her dukes up, parrying Kelly’s stick, keeping her right hand high and doubling up the hook off the tapping jab. Midway through, Alyson stubs Kelly’s chin with a jolting straight right--champ’s straightened up and takes a cracking hook on the tip of the chin--PACKARD’S DOWN! Kelly faltering to all fours--she’s up quick, but shaken--Hannigan deceptively quick with that left mitt. Nice pitty pat follow up from a very busy Alyson H--Kelly standing at the ropes, moving her head, rolling her shoulders and taking the same raking touches in the ribs and belly that have won her a lot of rounds from a lt of blondes in this division.

R2: Kelly using her legs, circling to her left, loping in with wide right hands to the body, lashing combo’s up top and it’s effective. Hannigan rocked early as Packard pounds hard overhand right to the jaw--redhead covering up and suffering as blonde works her over. Hannigan avoiding the shutout late with some tough counter hooks to the solar plexus--Alyson getting nice bite off Kelly’s taut body, backing the blonde off at the bell.

R3: Shutout Packard. Kelly on her toes, dancing left, darting in to pull looping lefts and rights into her foe, or working sharp up the middle with searing, straight one-twos. Hannigan too defensive, covering up and just trying to minimize the damage as Kelly puts on a show.

R4: Shutout Hannigan. This is what Alysoin does-hangs around, stays stubborn, doesn’t let girls run her out of the ring, Packard coaxed into standing in front of the redhead--Alyson just outworking Kelly, outworking that nibbling hook--clouting the belly, scraping the ribcage, cuffing the jaw. Hannigan with a pretty pivot to the right as she jabs Kelly’s chin--Alyson able to bite that nice inside hook off the eye as Packard gets caught staring.

R5: Toe to toe, both girls working--Hannigan once again has a blonde mesmerized, trading at range and temp that suit’s the redhead perfectly. Kelly getting off with rangy, curling hooks and right hands in close, then covering up as Hannigan answerws back tice-tac-toe. Alyson’s left hand making little PAK! PAK! Noises against Kelly’s tight midriff as she sticks the hook in, shoulders the blonde off, then taos her chin--Pacakrd just standing in, bent over at the waist and waiting her turn.

R6: Kelly gets back to circling, stepping in, getting off and getting out--Hannigan falls off the pace. Kelly making the Danes adjustment of rotating away from the hook--Alyson almost a one handed fighter, uses the right hand sparingly but not enough to get Packard out of her rhythm. Kelly starting to roll combinations up against Alyson’s body and guard--signs of redhead breaking down as her legs give shimmy, Hannigan on the retreat this round.

R7: HARD right hand on the chin jerks Hannigan a quarter turn to the right--butt shoots out--she’s hurt. Packard stepping right, jamming the right hand into Alyson’s ear, clubs at her left eye with the swarming hooks--redhead banged to the ropes and she’s looking shopworn as she reacts late to punches, starting to get worked over. All Packard as she slides in and out, reaching down Alyson’s flanks to crank at her waist, using the left elbow to prop the redhead up. Alyson wobbly butt at the bell-champ’s starting to put the minutes together.

R8: SHUTOUT HANNIGAN! Alyson jabbing with Packard, squeezing the straight right hand in the mouth, then raking hooks across the waist as Packard stands and takes Kelly with her gloves high, bending forward, trying to weave and slip for openings, but Alyson just pats her don, avoiding the elusive head, staying on the body with her busy, digging hooks. Kelly finishes up the round with butt on the ropes--Hannigan pushing up ion the blonde, then fitting her hook into the solar plexus to leave Packard breathless at the bell.

R9: Hannigan hooking Kelly hard in the belly, has champ struggling forward--redhead with a sharp pivot right, bites the hook inside Kelly’s right hand and KELLY GOES WEOBBLY BUTT! Hannigan punching crisp from the angle, works Kelly’s chest then dives in with a chopping right on the left eye that sills champ to the ropes. Kelly hurt and fighting desperate, digs in and licks back at Alyson with rising lefts and rights. Savage to asnd fro ends as Packard kisses a wide left off the chin, bends into a crashing right and sends Hannigan scooting to her derriere off the ropes. Alyson badly hurt, fades to the ropes and takes a lanky bodied beat down to the bell as Packard helps herself.

R10: Hannigan horribly beaten at this point, shakes off the ref and continues the fight. Packard coldly breaking her girl down with heartless jabs between the eyes, putting Hannigan ropeside. Dangerous beating begins at the midway point--Kelly in a wide stance, shifting her weight from one foot to the other as she CRANKS in power shots. Devastating leverage as Kelly keeps her elbows in, twisting her body into lethal lefts and rights, just a-SHREDDING a shellshocked challenger at this point. Ringsiders screaming STOP THE FIGHT--ref just watching as Kelly Packard hammers Alyson to a corner and POURS IT ON! Alyson bludgeoned to her knee--she’s given 8 and allowe3d to continue. Hannigan  swooning to all fours under the senseless pounding--she’s given 8, allowed to continue. Seconds left and Kelly’s just RIPPING away. Hannigan sitting  in the ropes, hands low, eyes closed, left hand pushing pathetically against Kelly’s stomach as thje blonde strains to pour THUMPING right hands off her opponent’s face. FINALLY the ref steps in, cradling a spasming and helpless Alyson Hannigan like he’s doing her a favour. Vicious TKO10 Kelly Packard.

After: Packard savaging Hannigan the way she did Wuhrer, but Alyson had her moments in a hotly contested fight early. Hannigan ahead on all cards after 8, had the champion frustrated and hurt in the body--Packard finding a way to pull it out with one of the worst sustained beatings in FCBA history. Referee under suspension pending investigation, takes a lt of the heat off Kelly who is rapidly developing a reputation as a meanspirited finisher amongst her peers.
