Before: Big youth on youth struggle--Biel scores a knockout in preflight however to set tongues wagging. Jessica in the middle of her speech at the podium, feigning surprise when Justin Timberlake walks in with a bouquet of flowers, kisses Jessica on the cheek as Biel stares triumphantly at Brit and accepts the best wishes. So contrived--but Spears with jaw wide open can’t take it--she’s forced to flee the stage as both Biel and Timberlake wave bye bye. Biel all tongue and cheek smiles during stare down--Britney refusing to touch gloves is trembling with rage: mission accomplished Jessica. Britney in green Las Vegas two piece, gold hipster fringe--Jessica in pale blue crop top shirt, navy jockey bikini underwear.

During R1: Biel presenting some Vernon Forrest-like problems for the quicker but shorter Britney, Jessica using a rangy jab, right hand at her cheek--she’s keeping Spears at arm’s length, bending into vicious right crosses that just miss being flush as Spears if forced to bail and retreat. Britney loping around outside, trying to find lanes she can jump in on, but Jessica adept at pivoting around that front foot, changing up the angle and using her height very well in a tactical first.

R2: Britney with hands low, bends her knees to get under Biel’s jab and pulls a blockbuster right hand over the top to shattering effect, Biel staggering sideways in sudden pain--Spears leaping in with the swinging hook flush, then bouncing forward with the swatting right hand to drive Biel to the ropes, Jessi seated ropeside, bending forward at the waist--big mistake as Britney helps herself to kidney with angry swabs--sides of her fists rampaging over the girl’s shiny lower back. Britney gets her shoulder underneath Biel to stack her up, then issues a fearful pounding--Britney just going haywire as she belts away on the face, body and crotch of her opponent. Jessica breaking down, defense shredded--she’s just stood up and beaten unrecognizable. Ref goes to pull Britney  and SHE PULLS AWAY! Britney HEAPING on the punishment to her defenseless foe--Jessica sagging, head lolling freely as Britney’s punches bat the face this way and that. FIBALLY, the ref bodies Spears off and it’s OVER!  Jessica Biel pounded out at the ropes--KO2 Britney Spears.

After: Biel’s little Timberlake stunt backfires BIG TIME--bringing out the monster in Britney as Spears records her more devastating performance ever. Biel one of the best young names in the sport--completely overwhelmed by a fired up pop star and Britney doesn’t spare the lash: walk of shame for Jessica--Spears tugging and pulling the battered girl around the ring, Britney still seething with a volatile mix of rage and triumph. “That was huge for Britney,” says an HBO spokesman, “A win like that goes a long way to erasing the disappointment Britney felt in being st back by Dushku. It really sets the bar pretty high for Eliza, Jessica Alba--all our bright young stars. We love the fact that we can now promote Spears as someone who can jump you and take you out early. Beautiful!”
