Before: Sure it’s for charity and there’s not exactly a raging volcano of hatred here to fuel the fight--but both girls are real competitors, and there’s often as much if not more pride on the line when friends take the ring. Dani comes in with all the MO--the echo of her last knockout still reverberating throughout the FCBA. Twain needs a bounce back win the worst way following of her most disappointing outings. Shania in black push up, red aerobics bottoms; Dani in blue push up, grey stretch shorts.

During R1: Shania sharp as a tack, gets after Dani with slicing combinations, darting in, getting off before Dani can get set. Twain’s timing superb--time and again she pounces just as Dani’s looking to get position, forcing Fishel to regroup. Classy shutout, high work rate from Twain shows she’s all business tonight.

R2: Shania sticking the jab from an extended left arm, pawing with it, then ripping the sidearm right hard against Dani’s eye. Fishel is hurt, busted up, and Twain goes to work, stepping to the right getting an angle, and pounding the eye into prime rib. Dani swooning as vision blurs, taking hard right hands upside the head--twain working with intense concentration to pour the hurt on to the bell.

R3: Shania pre-occupied with the eye, and Dani is clever enough to use it as bait for countering ops. Fishel scoring with beefy hooks to Twain’s slender midsection, has Shania backing out and circling. Twain jabbing her way in to land hard right hands to the head late--but Dani’s on the board.

R4: Shania steps out to hurt her friend this round. Chopping brutal right hands from a flat footed stance, Twain bangs open the left eye with pitiless determination. Dani staggering, unable to see the incoming, is taking Twain’s biggest blows to the side of her head. Shania patiently stepping to the side, beats Dani senseless, and midway through the round, Fishel is blinded, blubbering and wobbly-butt, reeling around the ring, missing with crazy-wild shots as twain applies heartless finishing pressure. A series of biting right hands splash against Dani’s eye and ref steps in as Fishel is clearly defenseless. TKO4 Twain, who shows only concern after the fight is waved off.

After Vicious accuracy finishes Dani early as Twain regains a little predatory form. Fishel badly, badly busted up, and simply overwhelmed as Twain ruthlessly applied her class in this one.
