Before: Boxer-banger match up, and a bit of a crossroads bout insofar as Liz can remember a time when she was the bigger star inside and out of the ring. "I just remember Jennifer as that chubby little brunette in The Rocketeer," Liz grins, "I never dreamed she'd become the world-beater she's grown into. I don't think I'm shot and I still think of myself in Jenny's league: I just have to put the heat on and make her fight a Liz Shue fight." Connelly off that scorching Dani Fishel performance but catching a beat down at the fists of champion Neve Campbell - Jen wants to relive the former and forget the latter. "Definitely, the knock outs help a girl at the box office," says Jen. "I could box Liz for 10 and probably shut her out, but it's worth it to open up a little, take some chances. I know if I can put a Dani-busting beat down on Liz, she'll definitely go out." Connelly in Raquel's hot pink lace push up and panties from 1967's 'Bedazzled' - Liz in black push up and panties, white lace trim.

During R1: Liz clubbing away early - brawny lefts and rights, head and shoulders on Jen. Connelly dukes at cheeks, bending at the waist, bobbing, dropping her right foot back to ease out and change up distance, occasionally stepping to the side and walking to fresh canvas. Shue muscular in pursuit, banging Jen's arms and shoulders when the head proves elusive - blonde willing to work hard for points as brunette stays defensive.

R2: Jen announces herself to Liz's gut: great clapping hooks, arched back, cranking delivery. Connelly stepping lively to either side, jabbing crisp, pounding Liz' head back like a pez dispenser. Right hands appear at the midway point, sometimes lead, sometimes crossing off the jab. Shue just taking her medicine, covering up strong, but looking bewildered: Connelly working hip to head, touching her blonde anywhere she chooses - hard.

R3: Tight punching, banging back and forth - Jennifer choosing to stand and trade with Shue toe to toe. Connelly dukes gathered at her mouth, bobbing her head, coming out of her crouches with little clipping uppercuts to the chin, either hand. Shue jabbing stubby to locate Jen, then hacking overhand rights, stepping in and turning her hips through heavy hooks. Jennifer dipping low and to the left to set herself for ripping hooks to Shue's ribs - blonde taking some withering shots, but coming forward, forcing herself on Connelly. Hard fought round ends with Shue bullying Jenny to ropes - brunette covered up, twisting her torso to take the edge off concussive Shue body blows at the bell.

R4: Shue bangs Jen's head back hard a straight right hand, reloads and barely misses chin as Jen shears off to the left. Connelly buzzed, jabbing feirce to impose order, moving laterally to shake the pursuit. Shue coming forward, hunching forward as Connelly rakes her another savage hook to the body - thumping punch visibly wilts the blonde, shakes her knees as Jennifer sees the hurt. Connelly pouring on: short chopping right hand on the jaw; tidy left uppercut; get that uppercut again - Shue starting to stagger. Lead right hand Connelly POUNDING off face - Shue butt back, staring - Connelly claps the mouthpiece off Liz's teeth with the slinging hook. Shue stunned, crossing her arms, tilting into the wind and CONNELLY UNLEASHES! Jen pinning her ears back midring - TEARING at a shellshocked Liz Shue. Rib rattling body blows bat the flanks, torrid uppercuts and crashing rights off the face. Poor Liz facing into the punishment, eyes glazing over, face spanked and glossy. Slow, agonizing, descent for Liz as debilitating blows rob her of the will to go on - blonde finally oozing to all fours and it's OVER! Jennifer chest HEAVING, eyes flashing as she glares down at her handiwork. KO4 Jennifer Connelly in shattering fashion.

After: Liz trembling, taken to her corner and tended to - sheer violence of Connelly's assault overwhelming - Shue tottering like a senior citizen in the aftermath. Savage KO's obviously bringing out the beast in Jen - she's loving the beat downs - the stunned helplessness of her prey, and she's not holding back one bit when she gets a girl hurt these days.
