Before: Boxing purists calling this one of the best match ups that can be made right now--both girls known and feared as true hard women. Luner fancier with her feet, but Ryan's movement effective, economical. Both girls can box to set up superior power shots, both can take a shot--the kind of fight where anything can happen. "I like the fact that Ryan's taking this fight," says one Celebrity Beat pundit. "Jeri's got enough clout to just wait around for the title shot, but she's making a statement with a fight like this, Nobody just picks Jamie to get work" Luner in black push up and panties, low ponytail, Jeri in red bikini.

During R1: Jamie using the ring, trying to unsettle Jeri with her legs, but blonde just goes through the checklist. Ryan establishing her jab while taking away Luner's. Ryan cutting off the ring, banging right hands to the ribs and stomach. Ryan putting punches together as Luner goes stationary, covers up late. Systematic attack from Jeri--good professional stuff as she deals with Luner's speed very effectively.

R2: Luner responds. Jamie staying with her jab, punishing Jeri in a series of bristling fencing matches all around the ring. Luner with a wide, whippy hook in the tits, pivoting sharply left as she stings Jeri--she's got Ryan moving her feet, turning instead of punching this round.

R3: Shutout Ryan, Jeri re-asserts--wins the jab battle, cuts off the ring, throws hard right hands (both wide and straight) to the body and looks to step in close, bash away with combination punching toe to toe. Ryan hunting Luner down, pressuring her to the ropes, then working her over--so efficient, merciless as fists dig into the ribs, clout her opponent's chin--Luner taking a great shot through three.

R4: Luner answers. Jamie retaking air superiority with her jab--both girl's faces shiny from stinging, stabbing stick work. Luner pivoting left around her hook, licking at Jeri's waist but also swatting those mouthwatering jugs--Ryan grimacing slightly, showing the first signs of strain as Luner's sharp punching makes an impact. First minute, Luner boxing smoothly, but Jeri upsets the applecart: Ryan jabbing Luner into position, then hammering out a savage straight right hand, catching Luner flush on the face and buckling redhead's knees. Luner can't stand up to that one--she falters hurt to the ropes, covering up shabby--Ryan palming the shoulders, propping her girl up and shoving in harmful leather to the weeping breadbasket at the ell, Luner ashen-faced, trembling from the bombardment--Jeri steals a Jamie round to take over a close, seesaw fight.

R5: Ryan in charge. Luner still smarting, sticking to the perimeter--she's trying to dance around Jeri but can't do it. Ryan stepping over, using geometry against Jamie's fleet feet and punishing the redhead with hard right hands from the shoulder. Jeri's rifling delivery really busting Jamie up--Ryan spitting rights to the head and body with crunching force, walking her girl down as Luner deals with the hurt.

R6: Shutout Ryan. Jeri just applying systematic sheets of punishment, walking Luner down, jabbing her defense into shambles, then mopping her up with vicious rights to chest and face, jagged hooks up underneath. Luner doing a good job of moving along the ropes, but she can't keep Ryan off her--Jeri maintaining range and balance, extending on shots and wearing her girl out with steady thumping abuse bell to bell.

R7: Oh, Jeri Ryan! Ryan shakes Jamie up with cleaving right hands early, snapping Luner's head around, buckling her knees. Luner without a clue--she reaches in to clinch, Jeri tightens up her strokes and bludgeons the redhead with rising lefts and rights in close. outside, Jeri's jab is hammering through the guard, driving Luner windblown to the ropes and hurtling rights are shelling the rigid ribcage, stubborn chin of Jamie. Relentless, stalking pursuit, Jeri just staying on top, concentration intense as Luner unravels but Ryan stays disciplined. Final minute a masterpiece of hard hearted destruction--Luner limp at the ropes, Ryan strong, palming and propping her girl, putting together deliberate, but shattering combinations heads and body. Luner with right hand at her chin, left across her body, wilting and rolling mindlessly taking the beating of a lifetime, but miraculously refusing to go down. At the bell, Ryan chests up, pinning Luner to the ropes and holding her there as the redhead's groggy resistance proves futile--referee has to free her, On her stool, Jeri nodding, listening to instructions, then all hell breaks loose--JAMIE LUNER QUITS ON HER STOOL! KO7 Jeri Ryan!

After: Ryan taking a slow victory strut, hands held high as an achy Jamie luner hugs herself and kets the tears flow. It's a sweet, sweet way to win, especially with the reputations of these two women. "I don;t have as hard a time with Jamie as Charlize or Cat or most other girls do,k" says Jeri, white towel around her neck, "but I never expected to punk Luner out on her stool. It's just so satisfyting--nobody does that to Jamie, but she just couldn;t take anymore. I really feel like I'm on top of my game right now--that could have been anyone tonight and we would have seen the same thing. I'm giving girls hell these days."
