Before: Boxer vs puncher match up in most people's eyes - Farrell begs to differ. "Heigl's someone I can do some punching on," Terry insists, "I'm not going to be passive, I'm going to dictate to her. You don't have to send out a search party for Katherine and when I find her with my jab, the right hand won't be far behind. I'm looking for an early night to be honest - Katherine's no threat to me." Heigl sick and tired of the lack of respect, but she's got to shut people like Terry up in the ring. Heigl in tight black cropped T-shirt, bare midriff, black high waist aerobics bottoms - Terry in royal blue sports bra to a high neck, high waist aerobics bottoms, slick ponytail.

Round 1: Heigl's gloves at her lips, bobbing side to side, but it's all Farrel. Terry nice and easy to her left, spanking out the jab, keeping Katherine well outside. Farrell juuust missing right hands, but able to stay out over her front foot, dig a thick wet hook in behind Heigl's elbow to keep her hunched over. Katherine squaring up and coming forward, but not punching - Farrell's got her under a blanket of leather.

Round 2: More sharp-shooting, rangy lateral movement from Terry as she keeps this fight in the center of the ring. Jab keeping Heigl defensive, at the end of Terry's punches - Farrell able to load up and lean in on right hands that are getting closer, coming back with that heavy hook to the body. Farrel turning Katherine so pretty - looks like a sparring session as Terry dials in, eyes intent, just posting textbook shutouts through 2.

Round 3: Farrell steps up the pace, jabbing to get control of the ring, setting down on whistling right hands to get Heigl covering up, then plying the waist and rightside ribs with that long, thumping hook. Terry pivoting around the left as she sinks it in - Heigl unresponsive, sluggish - just coming forward and shipping leather. Midway through, Terry hooking rib and swing-stepping left - she stops, picks Heigl up with the left uppercut, slaps her a timing hook on the cheek and bends into the go-home right hand straight between the mitts. Katherine freezing upon impact, then sprawling onto her face - devastating KO3 Terry Farrell

After: Uh...wow! Farrell pumped with not only the sheer violence unleashed, but the perfect execution she displayed against a plodding bruiser. Heigl unable to land a single meaningful blow, accepts scores in return and spends many worrisome moments on the canvas. "I felt so good coming into this fight," breezes an unmarked Farrell, "that I knew Katherine couldn't win - but I thought she'd be competitive! I really blew the doors of that girl - don't know when I've dominated like that before."
