Before: Rinna gets her big fight after waging one of the most successful campaigns in boxing. “I’m delighted that Brittany Daniel has answered the call,” says Lisa, “but this isn’t the pay for me. People need to realize that I’m the best fighter in boxing, period—Brittany’s just one girl I’ve got to lay down on that road.”

Daniel coming off a crushing loss to Jessica Alba, still haunted by that near-thing and she’s also been quietly putting together one of the most daunting schedules in boxing. “The Krushers promised me tough, high quality fights and that’s what I’m getting no question about it. Make no mistake—everything I do right now is designed to get Jessica Alba back in the ring. No offense to Lisa, but SHE’S just a trick in THAT road.”

Two girls with instrumental views of one another—somebody’s got to be the hammer, somebody’s got to be the nail.

Lisa in navy sports bra, red bikini bottoms, brunette tousle, Brittany in snakeskin print bikini, blonde tousle.

During R1: High tempo spank-spank as girls trade 3 and 4 punch combinations. Brisk professional action, both girls adept at covering up and rolling with the incoming, answering back with biting force, stepping in and out with stiff jabs. Both girls mxing it up well to firm bodies as well as the head—crisp, clean action. Seconds left. Daniel working hard downstairs with a double hook in the waist, suddenly straightens, gets her shoulder behind a hook on the chops to beat Rinna to the punch and RINNA IMPLODES TO THE MAT! SHOCKING power to the chin drops Lisa in a heap in her corner—bell sounds—Rinna’s people rush in to help as chaos insues. Runna helped to a stool and feverishly worked upon, but she got starched at the bell!

R2: Rinna woozy, trying to focus—she legs stiffly left while Brittany goes into hunter-killer mode, Daniel gobbling up the ring, snatching at Lisa’s firm tummy, then trying for the chin with that double-hook. Daniel brawling Lisa at the ropes, palming her shoulders, setting for thumping rips to the gut and head—Rinna obviously limp with hurt, but defending well upstairs as she blocks and rolls.

R3: Shutout Brittany, Brittany methodically working on her dazzled prey—Rinna just can’t shake off that monster shot. Lisa bailing out, clattering around the ring to set up one defensive stand after another—she’s falling in to clinch, running, flicking out smoke-screen jabs—anything to get her legs back. Good veteran stuff from Rinna to survive—Daniel stalking, beating Lisa down, but unable to rub her out.

R5: Brittany in the driver’s sear, spitting jabs to the chest to get Rinna ropeside, sailing into the midriff with wide right hands, then putting combos together as Lisa wilts forward. Ribs and head, ribs and head—Daniel just staying on her girl and working, Rinna’s tactical clinching, savvy defense starting to pay off—she’s getting her legs back, starting to chip back at Daniel with some zip. Both girls adept at scrubbing face with wet tousles in close, mauling each other in sweaty clinches. Final minute—Rinna scores with a burst of thudding lefts and rights to the pit of Brittany’s belly—Daniel tilting forward, Rinna picks up harsh with left uppercut and BLONDE legs give way! Daniel hanging on at the bell—Rinna getting muscular, turns her around and jams her into the ropes.

R5,6: Brittany Daniel makes a tactical decision to fight inside these rounds and it pays off. Rinna not one to shy away from the trenches, but she’s not as strong in there, giving ground, getting chopped up as blonde sets a murderous pace. Daniel loving it to Rinna’s gut, then scoring with rising lefts and rights to mug those jugs—Lisa pouting as she clinches in discomfort. Minute after minute goes Brittany’s way—she’s standing her girl up at the ropes, methodically breaking her down through 6.

R7: Lisa showing heart, lays down a blazing swath of hooks to put Daniel on her heels, then gets after the blonde all around the ring. Wide ranging action favours Rinna—she’s a little more mobile, getting off first, winning the exchanges as she dupes Daniel into trading at power punching range. Rinna getting that straight right hand in on mouth at the end of her combinations—she’s startling Brittany onto her heels, putting the blonde wide eyed and uncertain at the bell.

R8: Daniel closes up the distance and POUNDS the body. Belly, ribs and tits—Brittany just laying in close, scrubbing face with her head, muscling Rinna to a seat in the ropes—it’s brutal stuff. Rinna going slack jawed with punishment, lolling against Brittany rather than clinching effectively—blonde starting to shove and slug to get her way in there.

R9: More Brittany outworking Lisa, smearing Rinna up against the ropes, never letting brunette butt off the strands. Rinna covered up, grimacing, turning on the odd tight counter in close, but she’s getting bludgeoned, suffering in the ribcage as Daniel fights off her chesr with both mitts. Rinna complaining of head-scrub as Brittany twists and scrapes her tousle across the brunette’s bruised and puffy features, and the pancake attack on that navy bra never lets up. Rinna looking scoured after 9—Brittany bright eyed, nodding aggressively to her corner en route.

R10: Daniel decisively off her stool, jumping Rinna in her corner and pinning her there bell to bell, Lisa digging in, fighting for her life as she tries tight left or right uppercuts but Daniel’s vicious body work is using the brunette up. Daniel snapping her fists off Rinna’s tight drum, bringing the fists back into position, working o0ut of a crouch so she can use that head and shoulders to bump in between punches. Hard hearted trading flows back and forth, but Daniel’s pounding out the round and at the bell, she lifts her hands high, forcing her eye contact as shellshocked Lisa Rinna sags in the ropes. Comes back UD10 Brittany Daniel.

After: Lopsided decision sees Brittany take 8 rounds with a knockdown—Rinna dejected, beat up in her corner and she’s stunned when Daniel skips over to plunder what’s left. Walk of shame for Rinna as a beaming Brittany takes what’s hers, huge win for Daniel reaffirms her staus as one of the best all around talents in the division. Rinna never fully recovering from that devastating hook in the first which was essentially a knockout—credit her with gutting out the distance against a very hard punching blonde tonight.

“I’ll be back,” Rinna says quietly in postfight, “she doesn’t land that shot, I outbox her—simple as that.”

Daniel breezy with the win, “I was outboxing her throughout the fight, but my corner kept me focused on that body—she couldn’t take it downstairs and I just kept on her. Once I get a girl all achy and glassy eyed like that—it’s over!”
