Before: Brinkley not the willowy super model of yesteryear - she's a full bodied brawler who relies on strength and size to get the job done. Still, Scoggins favoured as the classier fighter, better schooled, and motivated to stay in top contention with this showcase bout. Scoggins in beach volleyball bikini, black top, red bottoms, Brinkley in yellow sports bra, royal blue speedos.

During R1 Girls come together in a series of collisions, and Brinkley comes away the better woman as Scoggins gets smashed up. Christie shooting the left hand over Tracy's right shoulder, then falling in with her right onto Tracy's jaw, and Scoggins just soaking it up. Tracy able to get out and box in the middle minute, touching Christie with the jab, but in the final minute, Scoggins wants to slug, and falls into the same rhythm that saw her get beat up early. At the bell, a happy Brinkley looks encouraged, while Scoggins a little groggy, hears it from her corner.

R2 Tracy marches out, the girls crash together, and once again, Brinkley bashes hard, short right hands onto Scoggin's jaw as they fall in with one another. Tracy relying on her chin, but her eyes are glassy, and she isn't looking sharp. Over and over, Brinkley able to walk Tracy onto the right hand, and Scoggins definitely looking shopworn by the final minute. Still, Scoggins on the board, with some slashing one-twos late, but Christie more than holding her own at this point.

R3 Scoggins doesn't look right, and Christie puts a body on her, walking the brunette to the ropes. Brinkey still shooting the left hand in, then putting her body behind that right hand, buckles Tracy's legs with driving rights to the gut early. Scoggins open mouthed, pushing the big blonde back, but Christie continues to wade in, shoot left, drive right, bashing Tracy up to the belly, chest and face. Midway through the round, Christie pounds a hard rising right into the pit of Scoggin's tummy, and Tracy looks shot, hands at her hips, face blank. Christie reloads, giving Tracy a shoulder shrug, then turning into the right hand on the face. Scoggins drapes over the ropes, then bounces forward to crash to the canvas out cold. A stunned Christie Brinkley yelps for joy as Tracy can't get off her face - KO3 Christey B.

After: Shocking upset all Tracy's fault as her complete disdain for the opponent effected her judgment. "She can punch," A dejected Scoggins mumbled in post-fight "but I'm still the better fighter. I just fought the wrong fight." Scoggins was apparently knocked out in the second, not knowing where she was in the corner, or her trainer's name, but came out for the third on pride alone, much to her detriment as Brinkley successfully piled on for the stoppage. Win legitimizes Brinkley's come back as one of the premier big women in the game.
