Sparring Session

Streaming video on an enterprising independent website devoted to celeb fighting on the East Coast depicts a 3 round session, Burton just being worked out by Hannigan in sparring. Setting is dingy Boston gym somewhere--gym mats and spare equipment propped against whitewashed cinderblock walls--sounds of activity elsewhere in the gym--hand-held vid shoot, Hannigan in red sports bra, grey drawstring cotton fleece shorts--Hilarie in black sports bra, red and black plaid draw string shorts.

Overall, Hannigan does well, clearly wining 4 of 9 minutes in batting-practice type action. Burton basically sticks with the jab, has a a nice lateral first step with it, doesn’t really clear the holster with combination or body punching from what we can see--a basic 1-2 puncher at this point. Hannigan circling,  forced to really box the kid--you can see Alyson’s working, not clowning at all, having some trouble with Hilly’s height. Only break comes in the last minute--Hannigan slips a predictable Burton right hand and rocks her a hook receipt--Hilarie sent back on her heels several steps, but takes the shot well, Tuff poke ends the session as Tank Enterprises scout blows a whistle, girls slap gloves--Burton not breathing hard, evidently in good condition.
