Before: Fox looking to be the second Tech upstart to rattle a Krusher Kage, but Jones has that old swagger back. "Slump? What slump?" smirks CZJ, "I've worked out the kinks and it's time to start dishing punishment again. Jorja is one of the best athletes out there - too bad for her we're not shooting baskets." Jones in red bikini, Jorja in pink push up, navy boy cut velvet trunks.

During R1: Girls negotiating distance with jabs, Jorja stabbing at Catherine's face, Jones stooping and shouldering in her stick tough to gut. CZJ with the right at her chest, chin tucked behind the left shoulder - she's slipping Jorja's range finder for the most part, getting good flat spank out of Fox' body. Gentle clockwise rotation, girls just feeling each other out.

R2: Tactical pace and punch selection continues, Jones graduating to the odd straight right hand to the ribcage, left hook to paunch off the jab. Fox sticking with the lead left, spanking back Jones' head often enough to prevent any sustained aggression from Catherine. Jones the more constructive, making the fight, but she's not having her way just yet as Fox is competitive.

R3: Jones doubling up the jab, trying to slice inside and get off in combination - Fox making it difficult with that long jab, leggy step-out to keep her distance. Fox trying to drop the right hand on Cat's ear as Jones comes in, but missing it. Catherine landing her best body shots of the fight, getting her hips into it, digging at the firm waist with both mitts, juuuust above the belt line.

R4: Cat still focused on the body, but Jorja's on track with the jab. Fox doubling and tripling up the stick, stepping back in good order - she's really banging away effectively to Jones' mouth and brows. Catherine crouching and rolling, but having trouble getting in close - Fox circling, keeping Catherine at the end of the punches. Jorja not throwing that heavy right hand of hers - Jones loses a round but Fox not putting much on her in the process.

R5: Jones has been working the body all night, stooping to jab, spearing in the straight right beneath the breastline. Early in the fifth, she jabs tummy, jabs tummy, HOOKS CHIN! Jorja stepping in fence post holes, suddenly on wonky legs midring. Catherine puts a banging right hand/left hook up top, bouncing her gloves off Jorja's defence - Fox reaches out a weak jab and a ROCKETING short right counter finds her chin. FOX GOES DOWN! Jorja dropped to her backside with a stunned expression, pushes herself up off her hip all stiff and jangly - takes a woozy 8. Jones angling in, pointing the left shoulder at Fox, lifting the jab off her hip to belly, then lashing a hook 'round the right hip, licking the left uppercut between the mitts and A HARD RIGHT CROSS ON THE MOUTH! Big head snap Jorja - she drops to her hands and knees all queasy and she's not getting up! Fox counted out as she tries to climb the ropes - KO5 CZJ.

AFter: Cindarella story doesn't continue - Jones icilly effective in breaking her girl down to the body, chin-checking her at the first opening and finishing like the hardhearted pro she is. Fox competitive in every round, showed the jab, but clearly star struck - she's a more dynamic offensive force than she showed tonight
