Before: Best time to catch Ali Landry is when she's fat and happy - that's not the case tonight as the big brunette comes in focused, discontented and ready to hurt someone. Landry reportedly murdering Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders in sparring, anxious to do a number on Sims and BLONDE! magazine takes the SWO to task for the match up, calling it "nothing more than a crass attempt to sacrifice and quite possibly ruin a promising blonde lightweight". Sims the only one delighted with the opportunity, repeatedly assuring fans, "Don't worry about me - I've got PLENTY for Ali." Molly in cream bikini, hoop connections between breasts and at hips, Ali in sturdy red diving tankini (as seen on Fear Factor).

During R1: Landry stepping into Molly's chest with a ramming jab, backs her girl to the ropes and sets up shop. Ali setting her feet, pumps right/left, right/left, bashing away at the slender arms and bony ribcage of the model. Sims just standing there, blocking what she can, listless as Ali gloves up on the blonde's shoulders on occasion to reset the action. Down the stretch, Molly gets the timing down as Landry is completely without fear and blonde turns on a slicing counter hook to the right eye to put Ali wobbly butt! Landry stops punching --crowd roars as Molly gathers the big girl up and spins HER into the ropes, then lathers away with blonde abandon! Ali stunned, shocked to have been hurt - Sims doing a nice job of tightening up her usually looping strokes, she's licking galloping rights and lefts up into Ali's stomach and breasts. Sims steals the round with the opportunistic assault, surprising Ali with power and body work.

R2: Landry disgusted with herself during the break, comes out storming, but shows no more respect than she had in the first. Sims grinning, extends a measuring left as Landry wades in and bends in and down behind a crashing right hand on the left eye that nearly puts Ali's knee on the canvas. Molly grabbing Ali around the waist, spins her, gets away - Landry cut over the left eye, furious, hurting - she continues to charge recklessly after the leggy blonde. Takes Landry a minute to cut off the ring, but when she does, she's a little smarter at the ropes. Ali pushing Molly's golden shoulders back before punching, bodying up to smother the blonde's counters, making her feel the weight differential. Nothing pretty or scientific about the beat down - Sims forced to her knees twice from simple beefy attrition - blonde finally looks like she's been in a fight as Landry stomps away at the bell.

R3,4: Ali in control with a number of different looks, using a little savvy instead of brute force alone. Landry positioning Sims with the jab, often knocking the blonde off stride with thumping sticks between the breasts, then extending on the right hand as Sims has a habit of leaning away. At the ropes, Ali's too big - Molly actually doing a nice job of rolling with punches, but Landry's pounding the blonde's biceps, ribs and belly, unconcerned at this point with doing anything other than breaking her girl down. After 4, Molly's looking scuffed up, concerned - corner wants her to hold more at the ropes because even blocking Ali's shots causes damage.

R5: Molly dances to midring, surprising Ali with some grace - Landry tries to measure Sims with an extended left and takes another whip armed right hand on that left eye, drawing a cry from the ex-champ! Landry stooping forward behind her gloves and Molly gets after it! Working up underneath with lashing rights and lefts, Sims chugs away at Landry's thick midriff and bulging top, backing the sullen brunette to the ropes. Crowd in disbelief as Sims hands out a beat down shutout round to a shellshocked Ali Landry - Ali just sagging there - smiling Sims slathering on punishment like she's buttering toast, leaves big brunette humming at the bell.

R6: Landry read the riot act in her corner - left eye busted up, body taking too much punishment - trainer screaming at Ali to get it together. Better round for Landry, but Sims stubborn, competitive, now looking to land on that eye with right hands, and tormenting Ali's breasts in spots. Landry the clear aggressor this round, controls her girl, but can't find the off switch through 6.

R7: Landry dominating, working Sims over at the ropes for the most part, but blonde doing little things to survive. She's clinching more, slowing the action. Mid ring she's running shamefacedly rather than letting Ali touch her with that stamping jab. Ali in control, but frustrated all the same as Sims refuses to accept her fate.

R8: Sims slapping at Ali's swollen left eye early, has the brunette cringing, but Landry inevitably gets back on top, walks her girl to the ropes and starts to bash it up. Ali finally going to the uppercut, coming off Sim's flanks and biceps to bash up through the middle and results are golden. Molly leaning forward with an earmuff guard gets rocked, dropped to all fours late in the round and appears badly hurt for the first time in the bout.

R9: Ali looks to close the show...and can't! Sims crazy legging around the ring - she's hurt, but not cooperating. Any time Landry forces the blonde to the ropes, Sims wraps her up tight for breaks. Ref warning the blonde for excessive holding as the crowd gets on Molly for cheating them out of a massacre.

R10: Shutout Ali Landry. Landry content to box it out, shattering her jab off Molly's guard and chest - Sims backing and circling away, doesn't throw a meaningful punch all round long. At the bell, Landry turns on her heel in disgust as a battered Molly Sims lifts her mitts in joy. Comes back UD10 by wide margin Ali Landry.

After: Landry tearing her gloves off, fuming with hands on hips in the aftermath - it's Sims strutting in the ring all smiles having gone the distance against much superior opposition. Landry way overconfident early, walking into Molly's shots, taking unnecessary damage - it's as though Ali just thought Sims would melt away and when it didn't happen, brunette had trouble pulling together a fight plan. Nice gritty effort for Molly Sims, probably the best result that could have been expected of her tonight.
