Before: Old rivals hook up - good gunslinger's test to open '09. "Jaime's body doesn't age," Eliza says with frank admiration. "She's bred for combat - facing her always takes all my skill and experience, but it also brings out the best in me. The best of me beats the best of her - I have faith in that - but it's no easy thing to face someone like her. I'm ready: I'm in shape; I'm fresh. Let's go." Pressly equally complimentary - showing unusual respect for distinguished comp. "Eliza's been grindin' it out for a long time," Jaime says at podium. "She's special - she knows it, I know it. You guys know I don't always train for every fight - why should I? I'd beat most of these cows with a sprained ankle and a hangover - but I've put the work in for Eliza (lifts bottom of tank top to reveal hard-def abs). Shazam." Eliza in red leather bikini; small black work out gloves; hair in low ponytail with ringlets framing face. Jaime in midnight blue bikini; small white work out gloves; hair back in scruffy battle bun - wisps framing face.

During R1: Jaime able to whip-loop an overhand right to Eliza's temple early: Dushku badly startled - stamping in fence posts, dukes panicky at temples. Jaime cautious - darting in to strafe Eliza quick left/rights, then bouncing back out at 45 degree angles: blonde has her girl hurt, but not taking any chances. Dushku stabilizing her front late - adopting low crouch: she's able to weave in close, engage Pressly to ribcage, avoiding shutout in a wide-ranging first.

R2: Pouncin' Pressly sets the pace. Jaime initiating with lunging attacks - leading with fearless right hands, swiping the hook, escaping out to her left as Eliza ducks-and-covers. Dushku minimizing damage - blocking shots, moving her head well: she's being nibble and scuffed about the edges, but avoiding heavy contact. Takes Sheriff 2 minutes to corner Jaime, once again digging furiously at blonde ribcage. Pressly spins off ropes - legs giving her initiative as she disengages more or less at will.

R3: Eliza more constructive - jabbing Pressly to locate her, cut off the ring on her. Series of rapid-fire engagement see Eliza do well: she's ducking low, punching-with out of her crouch, attacking blonde ribs with thumping vigour. Pressly flurrying, then disengaging - finding it harder to shake pursuit as jabbing Eliza stays in touch. Down the stretch - girls trading near the apron (Jaime's back towards ropes): brace of Dushku hooks strikes Jaime chin/liver/liver - driving blonde to ropes. Pressly shook, covering up hurt: bell sounds before Dushku can pile on.

R4,5: Identical rounds: first two minutes see Pressly pouncing in and out, circling, clawing at Eliza in brisk flurries: Dushku turning, staying compact, getting strafed but hanging tough. Final minute, Eliza's able to find Pressly with hooks to breasts and ribs - Sheriff desperately trying to take blonde legs out of the equation. Both rounds to Jaime: body proving durable through 5, allowing her to set pace, pile up points.

R6,7: Disheartening rounds for Eliza: Pressly steps on the gas, leaves Sheriff sputtering. Jaime lunging in with brisk left/rights - cleaning up scraping left hooks and uppercuts while on her left leg - then bounding back out of range. Dushku busting up: Jaime's starting to chew through the defences, touching the face, lashing the body. After 6, Dushku's corner employed in cut-control; icing down Dushku's weary eyes. Pressly deploying liberal right hand buggywhip punches to thump heartlessly at Eliza's left hip/lower back - winning cranky winces from Dushku. Eliza staying low, protecting herself, but not threatening Pressly: both rounds go as shutouts for strutting blonde intent on running away on the cards. After 7, a thoughtless Claire says (within earshot of the HISC corner) to Mish, "She's getting outclassed."

R8: Dushku jabs, engages, hooks Jaime's midsection then chin: Pressly reels away hurt. Dushku pursues, driving Pressly to ropes, then digging at her: more hooks pound the rightside ribs; tuck in behind right elbow; bounce off sternum. Jaime issues her first clinches: indication that her legs have lost escapability. Dushku stays on top, grimly punching at Jaime even in the grasp, working until ref pulls her off. Jabs poke at Jaime's mouth as she's sliding to her right, trying to sidestep: Eliza attacks the chest, establishing position, then beating at Pressly with both hands batting body. Down the stretch, Jaime sitting in ropes, desperately pushing out lefts and rights: she's facing into spirited stuff as Eliza punches-with, pounds away at her foe's face to bell. Jaime tremble-bodied, knees loose: ropes held her up as Eliza poured on thick to bell.

R9: Eliza hooking Jaime to body - jumping in on front (left) leg, popping hips-right and lashing those babies home. Pressly groaning, giving ground: she's definitely hurt to the body now, stumbling around flat footed, trying to rally. Dushku bulls Jaime to ropes, squirms for position on her chest: Eliza turning puncher here, savage setting herself to hook at Jaime's flat waist. Jaime battered - dukes up at temples as she twists side to side, trying to block with her elbows. Dushku on her, setting steady pace, working effective shove-n'-slug incorporating as much forehead, shoulders, and elbows as it does pure punching. More clinching from Pressly - her mouth often open against Eliza's shoulder as blonde absorbs tremendous punishment to the body in a shutout 9th.

R10: Eliza throwing caution to the wind - openly brawling - stepping into Jaime with heartfelt rights and swinging lefts. Pressly punched to ropes, covers up, stoops forward behind her mitts: cue body attack as Eliza squares away, gets to hookin'. E cruel with the left hand - batting hooks wide, then gouging left uppercuts up underneath, digging at Jaime's sternum and breasts. Dushku just in there scrounging - pushing Jaime upright, then plowing at her midsection right/left/right/left - shoulders rotating, punches pumping. Down the stretch, Pressly answers limber uppercuts - leaning back into ropes and licking either hand up and across. Crowd roaring as Eliza tries to slug for glory; Pressly slugging for survival. Bell: they're still slammin' girls caught in a mindless world of mutual hurt. Comes back narrow UD10 - Jaime Pressly.

After: Eliza sombre, downcast as Pressly screams in exultation. Too much of a points-bulge opened up by Jaime - she's able to withstand Dushku's determined charge down the stretch. Tenser-bandages for Pressly - she's lifting her arms for the physicians even as postfight interview progresses. "I thought she was done," Jaime pants, wincing as her ribs are bound. I was controlling her - even beating her up in the 6th and 7th - and I got caught up with stopping her. She had something left for me, and before I knew it - I was hurt and fighting for my life. Listen - the better woman won tonight, that's the main thing. But the lesser woman would've beaten any other girl out there - Missy and Jessica included."
