Before: Warren bypassing the qualifying pool, goes straight to welter royalty in former champ Banks. Fight has a Barkley/Hearns feel to it - Tyra with the best long right hand in the game - Warren unusually robust for a model - it's durability vs power. Tyra in purple push up, white and black faux tiger print bikini bottoms - Tan stylized bikini and loincloth look Estella.

During R1: Banks with right cocked at her chest, low left, lifts jabs off her hips, moves Estella around the ring with supple menace. Warren surprisingly light on her toes, bouncing to her left with her palms out - she's not just forfeiting the athletic high ground in this fight. Tyra working to set up single right hands, lands a couple this round, getting a look of respect from Warren as the blonde registers tingle in her thighs off the spikes. Warren offensively trying to use the Alt playbook, jumping inside Banks' right, trying to tie it up and work out of the wrap. Round to Tyra - fight's taking place in the center of the ring for the most part, that's Banks' game.

R2: Warren still trying to tie up and work, has moments when she can jam tight right hands into Tyra's bra and ribcage while trapping Banks' right arm - but Tyra tieing up on the inside very effectively, gets timely breaks from the ref and resumes the long distance sharpshooting attack with few interuptions. Solid stalking attack from Banks - jab thudding against Estella's forehead and chest - slinging right hands coming closer and closer to full contact on the chin as Banks whittles down the range.

R3: Tyra backhanding the jab to the belly, reaches in a gorgeous overhand right, misses, and is a little lazy recovering, standing up straight, hands down. Warren timing her own right hand, drops a hatchet chop to the side of Banks jaw and TYRA GOES DOWN! Tyra getting clocked - upperbody tilts crazily to the right before toppling backwards and it's OVER! KO3 Estella Warren in stunning fashion.

After: Crowd in shock - Banks going from complete control to helpless crack addict in a heartbeat - she lies on her side, propped up on her elbow, head drooping and lolling, eyes open but staring - Warren in the background with hands held high, strutting as though she's done this before. Warren takes a boozy Tyra Banks for the walk - shattering upset for Tyra who simply cannot accept the blonde's hegemony.
