Round 1: Theron starting fast, gliding to her left behind a snake's-tongue jab. Bell jabbing with Theron, not allowing the blonde to get comfortable and also dropping in a surprise: curling short right hands, all shoulder and legs behind hatchet chopping blows to the heart, pancaking that left breast and putting Charlize awkwardly on her heels. Bell driving Charlize back with the heart punch, getting close enough by the third minute to add the hook up top and THERON GETS HURT! Right hand/left hook rocks Charlize and sends her sputtering wide eyed into the ropes as Bell squares away for a punishing flurry to the breasts, pumping lefts and rights to Theron sack that leaves Theron’s body trembling at the bell.

Round 2: Bell keeps jabbing with Charlize, disrupting the blonde's timing, as she continues to drop the hatchet to Theron's chest with devastating results. Charlize sobbing out loud from the firm connects, rattled backwards in disarray - Bell able to step with Charlize and clock her chin with hooks to beat the blonde to the ropes. Midway through, Charlize looking windblown, seated ropeside, bending forward with arms outstretched - Cat rocks her back with a beautiful short clipping right uppercut inside, again putting the hook over the top that Theron catches flush on her dazed face. Bell spends the final minute breaking Charlize down to the body - big and beefy - Cat palming with her right hand at Charlize' shoulder to crank lefts to the right side, then palming left to work the left side. Theron wobbly butt at the bell, straightens woozily to chest up against Bell - Cat maintaining eye contact and refusing to back down until the ref gets involved.

Round 3: Charlize wants to box, but Cat's not letting her. Brunette jab keeps Cat in range - she leans inside to chop the heart punch, then pulls the hook across Charlize' face with sickening force. Theron's face pale and clammy - she stands flat footed and fights for some respect throughout a hammer and tongs middle minute. Bell's got Theron fighting the wrong fight - brunette covering up well, riding out the flurries, then answering back with heart-stopping right hands to the breasts, left hooks to the breadbasket. Theron busier, but Bell's placing her shots with exquisite force, gutting Charlize and down the stretch, a tight left hook inside bounces off sternum to fold the blonde forward to clinch. Theron draped off Cat's neck at the bell - blonde weak in the knees, looking shabby through three gut-wrenching rounds.

Round 4: Charlize responds with championship heart, having taken a beating thus far but refusing to get despondent. Theron doubles up on the jab, keeping Cat from stepping in with the hatchet right hand, then starts banging out right hands of her own over Cat's left mitt. Down the stretch, Bell turns it around as she bobs and slips, catching Theron punches on her shoulders and gloves, then answers back a single biting hook on the teeth that has Charlize wobbly butt. Charlize reaching to clinch, Cat hammering away with rising lefts and rights to those aching jugs and Theron's TOP can't take the strain! Charlize' cream string bikini top simply SNAPS apart underCat’s two-fisted bombardment - Charlize sags in a stupor to the ropes, dumbly cradling her breasts trying (and failing) to keep everything in and a smirking Cat just pounds away with both fists, stealing what had been Charlize' best round of the fight so far. Theron glassy-eyed, grimly holding her top together as she staggers to her corner - Grier preoccupied with patching the suit back together offers no advice after the pivotal round.

Round 5: Charlize slugging freely to open, getting good snap off lashing punches - but Cat's icy calm; covering up, staying low, blunting, blocking and slipping until she gets the opening she needs, then answering back with perfectly placed licks to the body; Cat working over Theron's red belly, throbbing breasts, sagging solar plexus, chin and OH that heart punch again! Theron wearing down badly, starts to get hit cleaner and cleaner. Midway through, a jamming Cat right hand on the ear wobbles Theron sideways into the ropes. Charlize slow to recover - Cat steps to the right almost behind the stooping blonde and bounces a hard left hook off her left eye, dropping Charlize to her knees! Theron up, cut over the left eye, staring sleepily as she takes the eight. Cat jabbing, straightening Charlize back over the ropes then BANGING that right hand off the heart - Charlize moaning awfully as she cringes forward - Bell dipping her shoulders to lick at belly underneath. All Cat Bell, punishing, bludgeoning her girl - looming over Charlize to slam repeated lefts into the right flank, then shifting, resetting her hips and pounding away with right hands to the left flank and THERON GOES DOWN! Charlize on all fours, gasping, sobbing for breath - she climbs the ropes in TERRIBLE shape trying to beat the count. Cat taking a deep breath, eyes boring into the target - she wades on in and STUNS Charlize with a looping overhand right, draping the blonde helpless against the ropes. Cat bends right, pulling a clanging hook across Charlize' face, then bends left to slam home a blasting cap right to the forehead and CHARLIZE GOES OUT!
Theron drooping forward off the ropes, crashing to her face as Cat sidesteps and it's OVER! KO5 Cat Bell!

Monster superiority brings out the bully in Cat - she hoists a shattered Charlize Theron off her stool for a giddy walk of shame - Bell holding her by one elbow and the 'Y' of her thong - Theron staggering, her head lolling, flushed cheeks glistening with groggy tears as Bell punctuates her most decisive victory ever over the hated blonde.
"That wasn't me tonight," a badly battered Charlize mutters in post-fight, face purple with abuse. "I don't know what happened to me."
Wild party in the ring as Cat's entourage swells with unexpected well-wishers, including Charlize' next opponent, Britney Daniel with Charlize' ex-manager Janet Jones - both suspected of collusion with the champ in hopes of bringing about blonde ruin.
"Oh GOD that was great!," gushes an ecstatic Cat in the ring, towel around broad shoulders, face gleaming with victory sweat. "I feel like I need a cigarette! We knew we could get the heart punch inside Charlize' jab and she wasn't ready for it - I could see in her face, she was like, 'Whoa! What's that?' I punished her early, broke her down, started coming off the body and you know what? She gave it up to me just like I said she would. The old Charlize, the hungry Charlize, would have found a way to extend it, but this girl just doesn't have the heart. I walked her because she deserved it tonight - she didn't belong in the same ring with me!"
Charlize hurt almost continually in this fight, rallied often which undermines Cat's questioning of her heart - but clearly the blonde's approach to this fight was seriously flawed.
"I don't hide behind my fighters," says a grim Pam Grier. "I accept full responsibility and I'm willing to work on this result - if Charlize is. Cat Bell was the better woman tonight and I didn't have my girl ready, simple as that. You want to pick on someone - step to me, leave Charlize out of it."

Charlize Theron vs. Catherine "Cat" Bell (X) - Lightweight title bout by simguy July 20, 2002

Throw out all the odds, all the strategies - this fight's about who wants it more. "I've always been a target," says challenger Theron. "But I've never felt the disrespect from the media that I have for this fight. You all are writing about me like I'm a has been. I'm going to wreck your girl in this fight. I'm going to dismantle the golden child for all to see and when I do, I better see some apologies in your magazines."
Bell serene in pre-fight, supremely confident, finally the consensus favourite against her hated rival. "Everything's in place for a perfect evening," Bell says. "We're equal in so many ways, but she's a stupid fighter. It always comes back to the fact that when Charlize Theron gets hurt, she lacks composure - she can't think through trouble. I'm optimistic that when this is over, Theron will have to accept a new role in the FCBA - that of support-player, maybe even gatekeeper. She can still make a lot of money and she's too young to retire, but the sun is definitely setting on that empire."
Cat in a dark tinted leopard print, bra style bikini; Charlize in black tankini, shoulder length blonde locks.

Round 1: Theron off her stool and she is TACKLED INTO HER TURNBUCKLE by a charging Cat Bell. JAILBREAK punching from the brunette as she jams Charlize back by her shoulders, then stands up into dreadful body blows, pumping lefts and rights, creeping barrage starts in the belly, moves up-torso to slam into both jugs with thudding force. CHARLIZE GOES DOWN! Theron shell-shocked, hammered to her knees as Cat Bell is pushed back - still seething with adrenaline. Theron wide eyed, panicky, takes an eight and Bell climbs aboard. A HUGE overhand right spills Theron against the ropes, hands extended pathetically to keep Bell off - ANOTHER crashing right upside the head sends Theron skidding along the ropes. She nearly puddles, but starts to dig in. Hateful slugging the rest of the way, Cat on top, mauling and propping her foe, getting her face on Charlize, pounding away with mindless lefts and rights to the breadbasket. Charlize grimacing, pushing her shoulder against Cat, then leaning into the ropes to clip her counter uppercuts. Sweaty pushing and slugging continues after the bell until Cat is pulled off the trembling challenger! High fives and smiles in Bell's corner for the successful Pearl Harbour opening; Theron busted up, getting smelling salts. What a way to start!

Round 2: Theron boxing early, trying to get her legs back - Bell cutting off the ring, stuffing her jab into the blonde's breasts, backing her up to the corners, then sailing in again with a shattering two fisted assault. Bell setting a murderous tempo early, fighting off Theron's chest and belting away as she leans forward. Charlize trying to lean back to get the uppercut - it's the right punch but she's having trouble getting off under the pressure. Bell pins Theron's back on the ropes and makes a point of bodying up to press her flat at the bell! Charlize outraged, shoving back - ref gets into it to keep 'em separated.

Round 3: Bell with that thumping jab to the left breast, keeps Theron on her heels - Cat sweeping a right round punch to the waist as she methodically steers Charlize to the ropes. End of the first minute, right hand in the body sets up a crashing left hook on the chops, catching Theron with her hands at her chest. THERON GOES LIMP! Charlize sagging against the ropes, out on her feet - a HUGE Bell right hand on the face draws moans from blonde supporters in the audience. Charlize tilting, willing herself to stand upright. Cat just sailing in, chest and chin first, pulling in haymakers from her hips as she batters Charlize unrecognizable. Theron sliding along the ropes, Cat stepping with her - brunette just taking the blonde apart with clobbering, long armed power. Final minute, Bell getting big on her girl again, reaching up under Theron's arms and chest-popping the groggy blonde back into the ropes, then gutting her with that creeping barrage. Belly, ribs and those perky breasts again - Cat just standing her up and lashing into the blonde rising lefts and rights; leaving Theron swaying at the bell.

Round 4: Her corner begs Charlize for legs, but she's too banged up - Charlize managing a little shuffle to her left as Cat stalks in the fourth. Theron timing Cat better this round, closing her stance a little; jabbing as a breakwater to disrupt the brunette on the way in, then turning into slashing rights before their bodies slap together. Bell shipping leather, taking hard upside her head and when she piles on, she can't walk Theron back! Blonde getting stubborn, struggling well for canvas, muscling and twisting her girl, even throwing Bell off at one point. Important round for Charlize as she stops the bleeding, stands her ground for the first time in the fight.

Round 5: Bell goes back to the jab, tattooing the blonde's chest, stepping to the left, methodically breaking Charlize down. Theron jabbing back but getting parried and midway through, Bell dips to her right, countering Theron's jab with a sudden counter hook on the chin. The blonde stoops forward wobbly butt. Bell with that crafty left, tugs down Charlize' head and swivels into a cruel right uppercut, picking Charlize face up pretty for the cameras. Theron staggering back into the ropes, takes a seat, digs in and suffers another grinding beat down as Bell climbs aboard and helps herself to blonde breast with both hands. Once again at the bell, Cat is body pressing Theron against the ropes, sending the same message round after round after round.

Round 6: Theron standing, slugging; right hand at her chest, left at her hip. Bell alters her jab angle to bang back that swollen, tired face as the blonde shuffles forward. Bell in control, punching with Charlize from outside - she'll beat the blonde to right hands, dipping low to make blonde fist breeze past her right ear while brunette fist bounces hard off face; then Bell turns over the hook, catching a stunned Theron looking, hands hovering stupidly over her chest. Theron taking a terrific punch, but too many of them! Bell backs her up, working that firm body as she pressures her into the ropes at the bell. Charlize not pushing back much, hardly resisting the insulting belly-to-belly and breast-to-breast body presses by this point - Cat is using her girl up through 6.

Round 7: Shoulder to shoulder, Theron one step off the ropes, leaning in with Cat. Both girls working methodically underneath; both with right hands at the chest, left across the body, using their left shoulders to nudge and bump, keeping it close, compact. Long armed beauties doing a nice job of tightening up the strokes. Charlize finally landing the right uppercut, fitting it in off a nice shoulder bump. Down the stretch, Theron lights Bell up with a beauty, putting Cat wobbly butt for the first time and she reaches in to clinch! Charlize sidestepping, almost hip-tossing Cat into the ropes and Theron able to set her feet, crank long hooks up into the breadbasket, leaving Bell whimpering at the finish. Now it's Theron chesting up, making Cat feel the weight - ref gets in there - hateful glares all around as the girls are separated.

Round 8: Girls flat footed, rubbing and scrubbing away. Theron's starting to find a rhythm, routinely picking Cat up with the clipping right uppercut, then batting away with a double hook against the stomach. Bell not answering back, just laying in, letting Theron get off. Midway through, Theron with another stunning right uppercut, puts the hook on top and sends Bell sprawling against the ropes. Charlize extending the left to brace Cat, then slamming away with hard rights - Bell tilting to the right, sideways to the ropes takes a bashing left/right off that left eye in swoon! AND THERON GOES FOR THE FINISH! Bell sitting in the ropes, eyes blurry and SHE starts to ship leather! Theron letting her hands go, tearing up that gorgeous face, pulling in side-winding rights to those luscious breasts. It's a Cat Bell massacre! When the bell sounds, Charlize keeps pouring it on - she's bodied back as Cat sags, all busted up. Theron writhes in the ref's arms eager to get back on.

Round 9: Battered faces, low guards, tired legs - the girls shuffle together, mouths open against one another's shoulders as they lick it up on the inside. Exhausted girls standing in, pushing each other off with the left forearm, working away in turns, both just trying to mop the other up. Slowly but surely, Bell bangs Charlize across the ring until her back is on the ropes, starting to dominate. Bell with her palms all over Charlize' body, shoving her back, turning her hips, positioning her for those big clouting rights. Theron's head bobbling as she takes the shots, eyes unfocused - just shoving back punches at random. Bell again bodying up at the finish, bosoming Theron into the ropes and pinning her there for the break with a big smile.

Round 10: Girls meet mid-ring - Theron backhanding a lazy jab off her stomach, slides back and walks Cat into a GORGEOUS right uppercut! Bell all picked up, stammering forward - Theron riding her loose left on Cat's right shoulder, turns the brunette and labels her another crashing right on the jaw. Another turn, Charlize just pulling Bell forward with that left and she gets her back into ANOTHER harsh right uppercut, pounding the mouthpiece off Bell's teeth and leaving her destitute. Cat out on her feet, hands plaintively pushing against Charlize' belly and left arm. The blonde's on a rampage! Charlize tying up Bell's right arm, slumps her forward and gives that filled-to-overflowing bra a good thumping! Cat's butt jutting back, head up, mouth pouting in hurt as Theron gathers her up under the arms and bodies her hard to the ropes. Lathering beat down washes over Bell - she's bent forward, gloves useless at her teeth, punches bouncing off her back and face. BELL GOES DOWN! Beating just accumulates in those gorgeous gams and Bell pitches over face first, then rolls onto her back - SHE'S OUT!
Delirious KO10 Charlize Theron!

Theron sobbing tears of relief and joy - it just might be the biggest win of a storied career. Charlize gets it all back and takes it from the woman she hates most! Bell fluttery-eyed, coming to, then breaking down in a rare display of emotion in the ring. Theron pushes through the crowd, reaches under Bell's arms and pulls her sobbing to her feet - a big predatory hug, then it's around the ring!
Theron's right arm around Cat's jiggly waist, a firm grip on the outside hip of her bikini, her free hand waving merrily to the raucous crowd, takes Bell for a devastating walk of shame as the camera pans grim faces of the TE contingent at ringside; Syren being held back by CB - oh the humanity!
"No!" says Charlize post fight. "That was what that whole fight was about, me saying 'no' to Catherine. No, you can't knock me out. No, I won't quit. No, you aren't the best fighter in boxing. No, you can't keep my title. No. No! No!!"
The cover of BLONDE! magazine says it all. "Blonde Again! Charlize Theron Stops Cat Bell!" is trumpted above a nice glossy shot of Charlize stepping back and allowing Bell to topple forward to the canvas.

Catherine "Cat" Bell vs. Charlize Theron (XI) by simguy 1/4/03

Non-title super fight has old enemies contemplative on the eve of their 10th fistic anniversary. Cat Bell: "I've really got an opportunity to break Charlize' back in this one. She's SO heavily invested in pulling even with me, any disappointment will be absolutely devastating to her. With me, it's different - I'm totally focused on the title - it's not about Charlize at all. Once her spirit's broken in this fight, I'll roll her up from there, and honestly, I don't know if she'll ever be able to recover. This thing is just too big for her."
Theron scoffing at the notion of a Cat Bell victory. "Anyone can tell I've got Cat's number - HAVE had for several fights now. The hardest part of fighting Cat Bell is OUTSIDE the ring - once the damn TE negotiations are over I can finally relax and get down to the business of working their girl over. I'm bringin' her home fellahs - this one's gonna be sweet!" Charlize in black lace one-piece, Cat in leopard print bikini; white gloves for both.

Round 1: Cat out with high guard, doubling up the jab body and face as she comes forward. Theron hands waist level, leaning away from pokes, gliding to either side, using the ring. Midway through, Bell extends the jab - Theron rock-steps away, leans back in with a postcard perfect hesitation right, slamming it off jaw, posing to drink in the sight of Cat cramping up hurt. Bell hands at temples, legs locked up - Theron stands outside, milking her foe with jabs between the mitts, spotting the right hand down against the sternum, around the wrist to jaw, sidestepping Bell as she stumbles and picking her up with more power. At the bell - Charlize aglow, taunts "Did you see my legs? They are FLYING tonight!" Woozy Bell stumbles past - Theron backhanding her fist like she's snapping a towel off Cat's ass - breezy smile Charlize.

Round 2: It takes all of 30 seconds for Cat to reduce Charlize to a staring, slack-jawed mess - series of searing right hands over the jab, shattering blows to the jaw - has Theron staggering midring. Cat patient, stepping right, hooking the gut, hooking the gut, drifting in a tight right hand off the cheek, bumping with the right shoulder on follow through - Theron tottering back glassy eyed to the ropes. Bell squaring away hardhearted - jabbing belly, face and those tender breasts followed by a HARD RIGHT HAND on the jaw - Cat leaning in, pulling the haymaker around and in tight, following up with her body on Charlize as blonde tilts straight up against the ropes. LATHERING ATTACK! Bell opening up, wide, stroking hooks cupping Charlize jaw and setting her up for more crashing right hands - Bell leading with her head and chest as she hauls in lumberjack cracks. Theron soaking up HUGE on her chin, head snap-lolling, eyes dim, hands at her stomach. Charlie lolling forward with a boozy clinch, Bell lowers her head, rolls her shoulders and starts pumping the gut - chugging lefts and rights, thumping barrage to the breadbasket puts Theron's butt on the ropes. THE BLONDE CAN'T TAKE IT! Charlize frozen with gut-ache - reaching loose around Cat's hips as Bell POUNDS AWAY around the arms into the sides of those exposed breasts! Bell reefing in right hands behind the elbow - Charlize gurgling, slides down to her knees, her face pressed to Cat's sleek, sweaty thighs for a breathless knockdown! Bell, smiling, hands high, preening, strutting and bellowing at her fallen foe - the brunette's blood is up as Theron barely beats the count. Down the stretch, Cat closing in, girls trade, hoisting hard right uppercuts to bra, clanging left hooks on the jaw... and BELL steps back! Charlize trudging forward, slinging righty-lefty from her waist, stroking Cat back with jaw music. Hammer and tongs at the bell as Charlize staves off elimination with the late burst of defiance.

Round 3: Theron's legs still shaky, but she's roaming left, reaching out the jab, trying to buy time with distance. Cat on the prowl, right hand up high, spearing the jab, cutting down the ring. Second minute, Bell timing Theron's loosey-goose stick, jabs with and drives a vicious straight right hand to the heart - big hurting' "OHHHH!" from Theron as she craters, staggering back to the ropes and Cat jumps on. Bell squaring away, bending side to side and pulling in lanky wallops ribs and head - Theron ramshackle as she covers up in stupor, standing way too erect and getting buffeted. Bell rough with her head and shoulders, butting her way out of desperate Charlize clinches, keeping the pressure on the blonde's ribcage to either side and coming up underneath with vicious left/right uppercuts to the jugs. Chunks of Theron's resistance being ripped away with every blow - blonde reeling, helpless to prevent or escape the carnage as BELL POURS IT ON! Cat feeling it, sensing the hurt in Charlize' body and just a-thumping away - driving lefts and rights - Theron tottering forward and CHARLIZE GOES DOWN! Theron gasping on all fours again! Bell straightening up flushed with effort as the ref wrestles her back. Cat wading in to make sure she's got her weight on at the bell, pinning Theron to the ropes. Brunette breathes into wind-blasted blonde face, "Legs're looking shabby Char. You're hurting." Rounds 2 and 3 some of the cruelest punching Cat Bell's ever done on Theron.

Round 4: Syren tells Cat in no uncertain terms - "Scrub her up." Theron throws a wrench in the simple plan - leggy along the perimeter, throwing lead rights off her waist, flickering jabs, sidestepping around hooks or right hands to keep Bell turning. Cat weaving, batting away jabs, trying to get back on that weeping torso, but she can't get her distance - Theron tapping her just enough to stay out of harm's way. Down the stretch, Cat finally hems Charlize against the ropes - blonde with dukes at her temples, elbows in, rotates her supple torso, making Cat miss over the top, picking Bell up in return with nifty little uppercuts with a little bobbing motion from the waist. Thick to the brunette's bulging jugs, hard on the chin, Bell gets a counter-punching clinic as Charlize fights brilliantly off the ropes to leave Bell wobbly butt at the break!

Round 5: Theron hands down, leans right and left as she steps back, slipping Cat's jabs and right hands, then suddenly answers with an exquisitely timed left uppercut to the point of the chin. Cat's feet stumble up square, butt shoots back as she bends forward hands at her cheeks - Bell's shook up! Theron shifting to her front foot, leans in, reaches a hook in behind Cat's waist, shifts to her back foot to pull a tight hook across the face and steps to the right as Bell soaks it up. Cat walking her girl down, gathering Theron in with stiff double-jabs belly and head, then that clanging right cross that's been finding chin all night long. Theron wobbly to the ropes at the half way point, digging in, trying to palm up and bog down on Cat. Bell very effective with hard shoulder butts in the teeth, rough scalp scrubbing and brawny shoving - she's clears the grapple, gets constant work done to that golden brown ribcage and taut blonde belly. Bell finishing up with galloping lefts and rights to the jugs, standing up hard into the blows as Charlize goes mute with punishment. Cat bodying up after the bell to press Theron into the ropes - brunette imposing her will through five.

Round 6: Theron's legs stiffening, eyes dim, face a battered wreck - it's all catching up with her as Bell continues to press the pace, attack the body and land scorching right crosses clean on the chin to cap combinations. Theron having moments when she lays in with Cat, girls head to head, picking each other up tight and clipped - Theron able to stick short uppercuts into the breasts and chin of her foe on occasion. Consistency belongs to Cat though - she's outworking Charlize, banging out the exchanges, coming forward. Another round finishes up with Cat muscling Charlize to the ropes and holding her down, waiting for the Ref to pull back on sweaty shoulder and enforce the break.

Round 7: Flat footed slogging - girls temple to temple, elbows in tight, bobbing at the waist to stuff home short shots belly, breasts and chin. Uppercuts and tight little hooks, punches carrying through with shoulder and elbow as the girls rub and scrub in close. Punch for punch it's Cat Bell - Theron just getting systematically ground down, wilting to the ropes, throwing less, suffering more. Down the stretch, Cat pressing in, leans out and pulls a biting hook across Charlize' face - Theron wobbly butt, tilting forward - Cat shoulders up and reefs hooks across the breasts and gut that rip a boozy groan from the gasping blonde. Theron hurt and helpless yet again - Bell sets her hips and cranks - hooks tight to the belly, left shoulder/elbow prop, than a snapping left to the bra that lifts her head for a banging right hand on the mouth - then repeat!. Cat's pounding bra barrage leaves Theron mute, sagging into the ropes at the bell - Cat stomping away, eyes hard and focused on the task at hand.

Round 8: Theron wilts to the ropes - crippled, legs shot - she earmuffs up, elbows in and starts that slow, supple torso roll to counter off the slip. Cat squaring away to work, clipping her shots, mixing it up head and body. Moment by moment - Cat Bell gets her head handed to her - it's the best counter punching of Charlize Theron's career, totally surprising Bell with the fluidity and accuracy. Bell constantly skidding or missing her shots, getting picked up clean in the jugs or teeth - Theron sloughing off to the side, rolling low, then coming up sharp again with gorgeous scoring blows. Cat backing out, then wading back in - she wants to stay on top, keep the pressure on, but Theron's just taking her apart. Attrition takes it's toll late - Bell starting to break down, reaching under Theron's arms to clinch and the blonde wraps her up, spins her muscular to the ropes and UNLEASHES HELL! Theron suddenly explosive, clouting two and three rising, whipping hooks, chopping down with hatchet right hands to the face - Bell shell-shocked, busting up. Walloping barrage becomes a massacre - Theron just swinging away, landing hard, drawing the elbow tip back sharp, landing with the other hand - beating Bell's face back and forth and CAT GOES DOWN! Bell battered to her left hip up against the ropes, lower lip split open, eyes dewy - she clambers strands to barely beat the count. At the bell Charlize bodying up hard, pinning her girl to ropes and forcing eye contact - Bell's head lolling badly on long neck.

Round 9: Charlize with wide, slinging hooks, straight hammer-shot right hands has Bell's head on a swivel and brunette's beaten to the ropes in early trade! Cat out on her feet, tilting forward, hands up around her cheeks as Charlize TEARS away with lanky fury. Bell just digging in and weathering the whip-lashing, then CAT STARTS TO ANSWER! Staggering, drunken slugging - Bell coming forward, pulling her fists into Charlize' wide open chin - Theron stepping back numb, facing into the blows, then CHARLIZE ANSWERS HER BACK! It's tortuous, hurting trade - both girls on the verge, legs jangly and stiff, hands coming from the waist as they topple and loll into each other, shoulder-off and load up. Slobber-knocker trade at the bell as the girls clout away to jaw - ref has to jump in as neither hears the break over the crowd's roar.

Round 10: Corners trying to whip their charges down the homestretch - both beauties beaten stupid at this point, barely responsive on their stools. Theron fresher at the bell, actually has a little bounce back in her step - she's able to touch Cat the jab, freezing and pre-empting the brunette. Theron sticking, easing left - Cat coming straight in, and Charlize lights her up a sudden right uppercut on the chin. Bell locking up on the spot, dazed - Charlize reloads, pumps a right off the belly, turns her torso into a clanging hook to turn Cat's head and Bell starts to baby step back with a blank look. Walking right hand across the mouth, slapping left - Charlize advancing with limber lumber, beating Bell steadily to the ropes. Theron palming up and steadying both herself and the opponent, propping Bell at the strands, then going to work. Deliberate right hands to the gut, just an artless, shoving blow to get Cat stiff with pain, followed by that slick, shoulder-turning hook - Cat fielding it clean, wilting into the ropes dreamy. All Charlize Theron and by the midway point, it's blonde coming for brunette's heart as CT seeks the KO. Savage final minute - Bell digging in, rolling hurt with punches - Charlize riding up hard with guard and palms, constantly stabilizing Cat then pounding away with driving, digging body shots and clubbing skull strokes. Fight ends with Charlize scoring gloriously - rhythmic wide left hooks, straight pulping right hands to the face, but Cat won't go. Comes back UD10 - CHARLIZE THERON!

After: Oh the damage done - both beauties beaten unrecognizable as both just took long hard turns having her way with the other tonight. Back and forth slugfest an early fight of the year contender and Charlize, bludgeoned as she is, can't contain woozy glee. She marches Cat around the ring for an extended walk of shame - parading her once with a guiding arm around the waist, then dropping behind Cat, forcing her to stagger with her hands above her head like a prisoner. Charlize backing Cat to a corner, touching Bell under the arms to keep 'em up, enjoying the sight of Bell struggling to keep her head upright, choking back sobs. If these two are friends of a sort outside of the ring - as has been recently reported - it's a friendship not without it's little betrayals and petty hurts.

Charlize Theron vs. Catherine "Cat" Bell (XII) by simguy 3-19-04

Theron can't wipe the smile off her face - she's back at lightweight (sub-130) she's got the fight she wants, and oh yeah - she won an Oscar this year! "It's finally happening," gushes the blonde in prefight, "after all these years, I'm finally going to reel Catherine in. I guess I don't have to tell you all - Bell's been like my personal white whale - it's been a long, grueling chase, but I've got her cornered, breathing hard and ready to be taken. Outside of the ring, I've utterly and completely defeated her - that's not even a question - she'll never experience even a fraction of the glory and acclaim that I have, end of story. But in the ring - people just love to throw Cat's head to head record against me in my face and I can't wait to finally shred that argument once and for all. March 19, 2004: I will beat Cat Bell down and pull ahead of her forever - that's a promise!"

Bell aloof, smiling and shaking her head at the more histrionic comments, but she does react to a BLONDE! magazine scoopist who wants to know if it's a wise move to take Theron so soon after suffering hard at the hands of Garner. "This is definitely the right fight for me to take," says Cat. "Garner didn't lay the beating on me that some of you seem to think - I'm fine, fit and raring to go. When I heard Charlize was coming back down, I wanted to be the one to meet her at the gate and say 'uh uh'. I can't think of any better way to pop Theron's bubble than to hang a Cat Bell loss on her after all the pomp of the big return. It was simply too tempting to pass up." Dark tinted leopard print underwire bikini Bell, cream bikini Charlize.

Round 1: It's been awhile since Charlize has tasted stick as stiff as Bell's - pounding, drilling thuds against Theron's upperchest - Bell stepping forward behind her educated left, moving Charlize back and THERE'S THE RIGHT HAND! Charlize takes a scorching right on her chin, seems okay, but she's locking up, standing rigid behind her guard. Bell touching up the jab to get her balance back after the rocket-cross, then eases onto her front foot to hook that tummy, hook that tummy and CLIP THAT CHIN the left uppercut. Charlize undone, sprawling back into the ropes, eyes glassy with wonder and ON COMES BELL! Cat pouncing into position, then setting up strong; RIFLING criss-cross lefts and rights to Theron's vulnerable, sensitive jugs! Bell on a mission, shoulder-cycling in one-two-three straight lefts to that right tit, then POUNDING in the driving right that pancakes the left and brings a squeal from the boob-bludgeoned blonde - Bell turning over that right ankle and getting delicious spanking leverage on the punch. Charlize nothing but heart and legs - swooning, guard up but purely decorative - Bell's hammering home a brutal message. Cat finishes up like a pro, in her girl's svelte midriff - Bell elbows in, twisting her hips and licking vicious rights and lefts up under her bra as Theron droops forward. Somehow, blonde doesn't go down - Cat emptying both barrels into a ramshackle blonde, tittie-stomping Charlize stupid, strutting away with a torrid shutout first.

Round 2: Hungry Cat gets back to business, stamping that soul-sucking jab against Theron's upperchest, driving her back to the ropes, pinning her down, then PLACING sweet right hands: belly (check), left tit (check), left tit (check), CHIN (check). Charlize flat-footed, under fire, but pitching back - dukes're up, she's twisting side to side and pulling chopping lefts or rights back at her tormentress, holding her own but Cat keeps the initiative. Spirited trade - both girls bouncing loud mitt off skull, shoulders and body, both blocking well behind raised guards, staying active. Final minute, Cat with that clever left jab, followed by a driving right to that exposed left breast, then a quick left uppercut off the front foot buckles Charlize' knees for just a second - Bell dips left and clubs a brutal overhand right to her opponent's temple. Charlize tilting hurt along the ropes, eyelashes fluttering - Bell heartlessly clawing that right hand over and over against the skull BEATING CHARLIZE TO HER KNEES! Theron on all fours parallel to ropes, mouth open, trembling - Bell quivering with KO lust, pumping her fist en route to the neutral corner. Charlize climbs ropes to beat the count, but OH, she's hurrrrt!! Bell strides in to mop up, palming Theron grimly in the shoulders to prop, stroking her ribs and tummy with tearing licks, either hand, to the bell. Charlize dreamy with punishment after two sensational Cat Bell heats - blonde staggering to her corner for some emergency treatment: Janet doesn't like the look of that shiny left eye.

Round 3: Charlize lumped up, but recovering well - assuring Janet she's good to continue. Theron back to basics - pounding out her own jab, keeping the right near her chin - muscular stuff has Cat parrying and leaning back, looking to time the openings. Both girls racing right hands to one another's chins - Theron a little longer, little straighter getting the better of these gambling exchanges. Charlize adjusting defensively - she's fading Cat's jab or jabbing with her, easing back when Bell loads up weight on the front foot: Theron can't keep taking that smoking Bell left uppie off the stick. Good technical round from a couple of true pros - Charlize rights the ship in workmanlike fashion.

Round 4: Charlize really outjabbing Bell early - Cat leaning back, still getting caught, now bailing awkwardly in retreat - Theron takes the initiative. Charlize turning over a blazing right cross this round - Bell shying away from it or covering up - even when blocked, punch is moving Bell around. Midway through, Charlize methodically working her girl over with long rights off the jab, adds a scorching hook to the mix and CATCHES BELL'S CHIN! Cat dazzled, leaning forward hurt and tippy toeing for balance - Charlize steps to the right, turns a slinging hook sharp off the solar plexus, bends into a glorious right cross over Bell's extended left and CAT SPRAWLS TO HER BACK! Crowd roaring to it's feet on impact - what a punch - Bell with the back of her right hand at her eyes, right knee flexed as she desperately shakes off the KO, then rolls gingerly to her side to rise. Cat takes a swaying eight count, then ON COMES CHARLIZE! Theron lathering away with loose-limbed glee - supple, slinging rights and lefts crash home with devastating effect as Bell props herself up in the ropes and soaks. Charlize pretty as she swipes a brisk left to the ear, then tucks the left in hard behind the elbow, licks a left uppercut, jams a tidy right amidships. Theron back straight, knees flexed, curling and slashing her punches in rising arcs - Bell's drowsy face popping up from her guard, Bell flinching and cringing when Theron digs into the body. Dying moments, Charlize starts to get arm weary - shortens up and goes jug, torturing her opponent with smug little stuffing lefts and rights to the bell. Theron bodying up, bellowing in Cat's face - Bell busted up, trying to focus as the ref pries 'em apart.

Round 5: Muscular shutout Charlize. Theron's legs looking sturdier if not flashy - she's just stepping clockwise, pumping her jab, placing the right hand, then looking to clean up hooks: ribs, tits or chin. Bell beaten pillar to post, ashen faced, eyes staring - she's really getting it taken to her in these moments as Charlize hunts her down. Theron mixing up her work, touching the body with pretty hooks, working Bell's face with rights up the middle, pounding away on flanks when Cat looks to ride the ropes. Bell issues the fight's first breathless clinches, wrapping up tight around Charlize' warm waist - blonde cooing, taunting as the ref pulls 'em apart for breaks.

Round 6: Who'da thunk it! Cat Bell grimacing, shying away from torrid hooks to her midsection - Theron's face twisted with hateful glee as she forces retreat on the proud brunette, systematically pummelling her to ropes, then setting up strong to go at her. Charlize turning her shoulders to get a short, shoving right hand into Cat's bulging bra, buckling Bell forward, then twisting back to dig in a slutty left hand. Charlize grimly going at Bell's body, thick, rich lefts and rights, using the sides of her hands to shove Bell off by her shoulders - Cat a miserable wreck, soaking it up amidships, drooping forward, trying to clinch her way out of trouble, but it's all too much. Badly battered, Cat Bell sinks slowly to one knee, drawing a glorious grin from the towering blonde. Charlize pushed back - Cat up at eight - blonde wades on in: welcome to Stalingrad. There's been a lot of hateful punching between these two during the years, but here in the sixth, with Theron looking to finish and Cat looking to deny - these girls trade horrifying, stroking lefts and rights to the bell. Nothing but thick, slamming leverage - chins and bodies all laid waste - both girls reeling, mouths open, hair obscuring half closed eyes. They stagger to respective corners, mindless with pain and the desire to maul the opponent.

Round 7: Faces are puffy, eyes swelling - neither girl has the legs to get cute - they're forming up midring, shoulder to shoulder, right hands held to jaws while hooks slide greasily to one another's tummies and pulsing ribs. Both girls showing supple left hand technique, cruel little uppercuts off the body-hook, little set-up jabs to get the left uppercut and both scoring excrutiatingly well, each soaking up gobsmack through two minutes. Final minute - Charlize starts hooking Cat's stomach, at first just laying in wet and heavy single shots, but when Bell doesn't answer, when Bell droops forward all wobbly butt - Charlize is energized! Theron licking her lips as she doubles up the hooks, keeping that right hand at her chin, just powering home the hurt with her back and hips. Bell grunting, dukes at her temples, getting carved up downstairs, drifting to her left as Charlize stays with her, keeps hooking rib, tummy, helping herself to tit with both hands….BELL TAKES A KNEE! Crowd offering an astonished moan as Charlize Theron sends Cat Bell to the canvas for the third time - Charlize screaming "YES!" at the sight of an exhausted, used-up Cat Bell. Cat's eyes moist with suffering as she winces up at Charlize, hurt as much by the blonde's celebration as her punches.

Round 8: Bell showing heart, pride, guile - she's been horribly abused tonight, but she's digging in, stubbornly defending little patches of canvas as Charlize marches in to root her out. Brutal clubbing exchanges - girls bumping foreheads, leaning in over front feet to reach hooks and left uppercuts into one another, shoulder-butting each other liberally for position. Punch for punch it's Charlize - forcing Cat back, getting short, drifting right hands over Bell's left shoulder and really discouraging Cat. Charlize all banged up, but glowing at the bell - bit by bit, she's taking this fight from her nemesis. Bell with a distant, haunted look: she's hurting.

Round 9: More of the same clubbing, heart-pounding intensity! When girls aren't strapping each other, they're covered up gloves at temples, riding out the other's fury. Back and forth, long limbed beauties try to beat down the guards, clubbing away at skulls and ears, occasionally twisting to lash home sickening hooks across shuddering ribs. Even trade till late - Bell hooking Charlize' ear, drops down to hook the liver, gets a cringe n' quiver and picks Charlize up that jagged left uppercut off the front foot. CHARLIZE GOES WOBBLY BUTT! Theron staggered, leaning forward behind her mitts - Bell steps to the right, hacks a right down on the skull, hacks again as Theron starts to stumble, then collapse forward - blonde nearly pitching to her face as she hits the ropes. Bell seething - dropping her mitts and walloping away from the hips and CHARLIZE IS HELPLESS! Theron windblown, staring back all groggy, hair in her eyes as Bell's heartless fists cascade wide to the chin. Theron leaning back, right hand under her chin, left across her aching gut - she's soaking up shellack on her numb and swollen face - bell sounds - ref tackles the still-slugging Catherine off - it's pandemonium as Charlize is carried to her corner by a panic-stricken Janet!

Round 10: Cat taking deep breathes, exhaling through her mouth, bats her gloves together and SURGES across the ring at the bell. Theron willing herself forward on stiffened legs - IT'S CARNAGE! All the hatred of every past encounter spilling out as girls take turns ROCKING each other with stroking lefts and rights. Not frenzied action, girls are too hurt for that, but they're loading up and hurting each other with almost every swinging blow. Theron will stagger glassy eyed to the ropes - Bell will reel from a clouting cross on her chin - somehow they rally and find a way to slug back into the hated opponent. Down the stretch: Cat hooks Charlize' belly as Charlize hooks Cat's chin - then Charlize dropping a booming right hand to finish and BELL SWOONS BACKWARD! Cat nearly dropped on her ass, hits ropes instead, forlorn as she tries to cover up BUT SHE'S ALL USED UP! It's Theron pouring it on, teeth bared, eyes glazed with drowsy rage, slashing and tearing at Cat's over-stuffed bra with those limber, licking strokes, then back up top as Bell's hands try to protect her precious puppies!! Bell out on her feet but making it to the tape - Theron piling on late, no longer aware of her surroundings, just pounding away with mindless fury - ref tackling her off. It comes back a DECISIVE mauling - UD10 Charlize Theron!

After: It's 7 rounds to 3, and 3 knockdowns to 1 as Bell starts strong, but can't hold back a ferocious, sustained Charlize Theron charge over the course of this harrowing bout. Theron sobbing in Janet's arms, "I'm better than her - I'm REALLY better than her!" Bell in heartbroken shock, quiet, facing her corner, then suddenly bursting into a tantrum, hammering her fists against the top rope in a release of pent-up frustration and showing uncharacteristic emotion. Her trainer Syren standing off to the side, uncertain of how to proceed. Nobody's ever seen Bell like this! Say what you want about their bitter rivalry, but these two time-tested warhorses put on a show-stopper, battering each other senseless over an action packed dime that FINALLY sees Charlize Theron overhaul her most hated rival, taking a 6 wins to 5 lead in their head-to-head meetings!

Charlize Theron vs. Catherine "Cat" Bell (XIII) by simguy 5-21-05

Charlize a-glow - she's all but chalked up the win in prefight. "Really, the fight's a formality," gushes the excited blonde. "I've beaten the best Cat Bell there's ever going to be and that was years ago. The hollow shell that's left is gorgeous to look at, but decrepit inside - just a matter of me putting the work in to get her out of there. Each beating from now on is another nail in the coffin of Cat's career. I honestly believe that when I'm through with her after this fight? She'll holler 'uncle', call it quits. We're down to the dregs now and I can't wait to see her admit it."

Bell, while bristling at the familiar taunts, won't allow old rival Charlize to get under her skin. "I've got a job to do and that job is to render Charlize Theron helpless in the ring," says brunette in chilling tones. "I got the old familiar tingle when this fight got made and now I'm on a mission. It's time I turned the tide, took control of this woman again. She's lorded it over me long enough - it's time to start reeling her in." Bell in electric blue bikini - Charlize in cream battle bikini.

Round 1: BELL GOES DOWN! Cat stepping with her jab - Charlize with that quick-snapping right counter chops chin over top - hurtin' pony trot Bell, then a delayed action collapse to all fours starts the count. Charlize beaming, bounding to the neutral corner fresh as daisies: heart POUNDING with the thought of KO1 victory. Bell stunned, beats the count for a ragged 8 at the ropes and ON COMES CHARLIZE! Theron steps-to, eagerly palming back Cat's shoulders as Bell covers up earmuff - job of work for blonde to pound away at what's left. Pushing and slugging - Charlize propping Cat up then giving her beefy to the body. Ones or twos early - Charlize just being methodical, but as Cat breaks down, starts to skid and loll against the ropes - Charlize gallops in three and four to the torso. Merciless pummeling THUMP of Charlize' hard-working fists bashing away at trembling Cat Bell tummy, ribs, and those luscious jugs - Char spends a full minute and a half on that body, belting it her hardest blows, stepping-with as Cat slides dreamy into the TE corner. Down the stretch, GLORIOUS lanky-limbed assault - Bell's defence in tatters - Charlize carving her hellacious uppercuts to split the mitts, walloping her gorgeous right hands against the jaw, stroking those hulking melons hooks. Charlize hard at work applying the shellack - legs set strong, swinging hips through the punching motion - she's bracing Cat upright in the chest with either hand, then belting her rugged the free mitt. Bell out on her feet, eyelashes fluttering, lips parted and DOWN SHE GOES! Charlize letting out a whoop of pleasure - hopping away with sparkling eyes - poor Cat Bell beaten senseless, trembling on all fours like a newborn colt. By some miracle, Catherine beats the count, but she's ruined - staring bleakly, swaying on the spot as ref takes a close look at the bell. Theron lifting her mitts and strutting the ring before taking her stool - it's the start of a lifetime against Cat.

Round 2: Bell the veteran digs in - plan A whatever it was has just gone out the window - Cat just getting herself together and trying to scratch her way back into the bout. Charlize bouyant, bouncing back in and looking to belt Bell out of there - Cat in an air-tight guard around her temples, elbows in takes a rib-rocking early brace of lefts and rights splattering up and down her flanks. Bell banging back - short, choice right hands on the mouth sobering Theron up - Charlize assuming a more responsible stance at close range as she gets tagged - now both girls have their dukes up, leaning forward to get off tidy. Heads grinding, rubbing, both girls bumping shoulders - it's a hard-working round. Both girls plundering tummy via strapping hooks in close, both looking to work the right uppercut off the shoulder bump - it's healthy two way hammer and tongs. Final minute, thick, methodical trade - Bell weaves under a Theron right cross, answers back a crisp biting hook on the chin and CHARLIZE REELS BACK WOOZY! Theron on her heels, didn't like that hook one bit - ON COMES CAT! Bell heartless, wading in with rights and lefts - walking barrage beats Charlize length of the ring, drives her to far ropes in disarray. Char windblown, lolling into strands - Cat splits the mitts a lunging straight right hand, belting Therons' face back and bending her lithe frame over the top rope. BEATDOWN! Cat unleashes a thick, batting barrage of lefts and rights - gloves spanking hard off Charlize' flanks, clipping her chin. Theron in stupor, tilting forward - Cat braces her a left hand on the shoulder, then PUMPS away righty downstairs - great thumping licks in the belly and CHARLIZE GOES DOWN! Blonde sobbing for air, quivering - Bell staggering away open-mouthed. Brutality reaching new levels between these two as CHARLIZE is saved by the bell in the second.

Round 3: Ramshackle beauties eyeing each other with groggy hate; legs heavy, feet stepping flat - they wander into range and both start strappin'. Great clocking licks - Bell leaning in, pulling a clouting right hand over and over short to Charlize' ear, staggering the blonde in a dazed circle to her left. Charlize reaching in and muscling Bell's arms up and back, then going to her ribcage with heavy, sumptuous strokes. Bell responding in kind, swapping bop downstairs as long beauties lay in mouth-on-weary-shoulder. They stumble around each other, growing mindless as chins are checked, eyes coming back glassy, reactions slowing. Theron with hair obscuring half her face seems sleepy, taking extra shots on both jawlines - she's systematically backed into the ropes and worked on down the stretch. Bell applying ham - pushing Charlize' shoulders square, propping her in the chest, then simply clobbering her. Theron soaks up a clubbing, staring at the bell through lidded eyes. Cat swaying on her feet when she pushes up off her foe - SHE'S wobbly butt, half from Charlize' punishment, half from her own exertions.

Round 4: OH THEY SLAM AWAY! Mindless, groggy two way belting. Magnificent boxers forget they ever jabbed or danced in their lives - they're just falling in together, struggling to muscle the other's arms back, get her off balance, then strap her hard. Cat's head swivels off Theron right hands - big bashing connects. Theron's head swivels as Bell's right hand finds chin - Cat pulling the punch in tidy, bending in on follow through. Theron comes forward, smashing away lefts and rights at Cat's face - then Bell retakes lost territory, clubbing Theron about her head and shoulders in weary stalemate. Bell going to Theron's body with upthrusting right hands, pounding away tummy, sternum, tits - Charlize not about to let that stand, swings away wide to the waist - beating Cat into doubled-up stupor at times. Girls constantly falling hurt into each others arms, but neither really clinching - both want to resume slugging as soon as they can coax fresh hate into humming limbs. Bell - both reeling, still trying to clout each other with wide, tired sweeps - ref pushes tottering vixens apart: eyes dull, chests heaving with exhaustion through just four blistering heats.

Round 5: Mindless, groggy two way belting. They punch and fall in. Struggling in one another's arms, eyes are closed, mouths open as they wrestle to push and maul the other back. Fight tumbles along the ropes blonde, brunette, blonde, brunette as they trade positions. Bell in close, traps Char's right under her left and has a moment of blissful supremacy over Theron's jugs, belting helpless hooter rich right hands in close, just packing 'em in as poor Charlize slouches hurt in the ropes. Moments later, Theron gets her payback, bodying Cat to the ropes, hurting her to the midsection and scoring great chugging shellack on that heaving rack as Bell leans forward. No stone left unturned tonight - both girls beating every last inch of the offending torso in front of her tonight, hip to head.

During the break: camera picks up groggy Charlize mumbling to her trainer, "Is she quitting?"

Bell on her stool, eyes closed, head back against turnbuckle, baring her long, parched throat - Syren rubbing Cat's thighs feverishly in both hands to bring some life back to Bell's legs.

Round 6: They fall in: Charlize clouting a tight right to jaw seems to shake Bell to her foundations - Cat immediately snuggling up hurt around Theron's ribcage. Ref's break - light returning to Charlize' eyes as she smells hurt on Cat - blonde picks up the pace. Rudimentary jab from Theron, just finding Cat, fixing her position - swinging right hands over top land flush, wet to the ear, staggering Bell sideways. Cat wobbly butt, face-in-gloves - she's just trying to lean forward, smother the work. Theron goes body right/left, cripping Bell, then dips left to sling a lanky left hand in over Bell's right hip, bending brunette chassis. Cat at Charlize' mercy, taking little baby-steps whenever she's belted - Theron getting off, walking her girl down. Bell buying time with moist clinches, reaching under the arms and hanging off Charlize: Theron scooting her hips back, trying to create distance, jamming away at Cat's back and hips with flailing arms in the clinch until sweaty ref's breaks. By the midway point, Cat's legs betray her - she's reeling into ropes, barely keeping her feet, struggling to keep her face protected. Charlize wild, exhausted, but stoked with fresh KO lust POURS it on, belting Cat about her head and shoulders, swinging beefy to the waist and hips - long blonde arms shivering after contact with solid brunette body. And OH, those great throbbing jugs of Cats! Theron just HEAVING in the hurt, propping Cat up, standing up in the stirrups Brittany Daniel style and chugging until either falling in or getting bogged down in a clinch. It's Charlize on Cat, either punching, or squirming against Bell at the ropes - just a constant, numbing oppression of blonde on brunette. Break: Cat just limp with hurt, all busted up; Charlize exhausted, mouth wide open for extra oxygen - she's swaying, unable to believe that Bell still resists the siren-song of the canvas. 10-8 without the knockdown regardless, but Bell's fighting heart still beating.

Charlize imploring the ref en route to her corner, "Guy - she's done. Just look at her - what else do I have to do? Stop this before I ruin her for good!"

Round 7: No way out for either woman - they blunder into each other, hair in eyes, mouths open - both slugging on autopilot, and now it's Cat Bell's turn. Charlize punched out after her finishing kick failed to deliver in the sixth - now Cat gets her body on Charlize, starts to bull blonde around. Charlize' eyes fluttering shut as she reaches woozy around Cat's hips to clinch - Bell pounding away to the back and hips, flailing her arms against Charlize until the ref steps in. Cat marching ever-forward, slugging and bodying Theron to ropes - Charlize drifting in and out, standing upright at the ropes, posing perfectly for shattering blows that send her face whipsawing back and forth. Bell measured, staying within herself, taking the time to push Theron upright with beefy deliberation before applying shellack - she's patient, methodical where Charlize had been rhapsodic, possessed. Theron proves just as stubborn taking her beating though - long, curvy legs holding her up as torso goes numb. Frustrated, Bell finishes the steamy session with a numbing criss-cross pounding of straight punches against Charlize' Oscar winning tits. Theron's head bobbling as her chest soaks a drumming - she's teary-eyed at the bell, rickety en route to her stool as she supports herself with a left hand on the top rope for balance.

Round 8: Charlize rallies in the first minute, her left hand reaching for Cat's right bicep, her right mitt clouting Cat's jaw in groggy early action. Bell soaks it up, starts to issue back. Great thudding right hands up underneath, sounding out hollow against Charlize' ribs, buckling blonde's legs. Cat steadies, reaches in her left to Theron's right arm, then POUNDS a hateful right hand off golden brown blonde midsection. Theron groaning, chest forward, butt back - Cat reloads the right and clips her foe a cracking right uppercut, pounding the mouthpiece off Theron's head and shooting it straight up into the air. Theron stupid with punishment - Cat still bracing with the extended left gets her hips behind another gorgeous right hand on the breadbasket, shifts and gets that slobberknocking right uppy on the chin. Theron's head tossing back like a Pez dispenser from those blows - legs give way - Bell sidesteps to allow Charlize a headlong collapse face first into the ropes. Deep breath Cat - she wades in, sportswoman enough to push Theron upright rather than pounding her back, then Bell goes to work. Bludgeoning, succulent work to the body - Cat dukes at her chest, alternating methodical curling lefts and rights, shoulders rotating sexy, bringing her hands back smart, shifting her hips as she concentrates all her venom on the offending waist. Theron sobbing in pain, sitting on ropes and helpless - Bell finally punches herself out and falls in, pressing Charlize into the strands to make her feel the weight. Theron groaning, hating the feel of Cat atop her, but powerless to dislodge her - ref has to peel exhausted Bell off her prey as both girls reel to respective corners.

Round 9: Form? What form? Girls hopelessly hurt, walking on their heels, hands collected loose at chests, eyelashes fluttering - yet both still have the will to punish. Cat winds up, punches a wide, sidearm right against Charlize' flank: Theron sees it, but can't avoid it, wearily turning her torso to help absorb the shock. Theron paws a weak jab at Cat's lower lip, then drifts a sandbagging right across the chin - head snap Bell, legs quiver - she falls in breathless and pushes Charlize off at the stagger. Back and forth like this - two prime, exquisite fighters reduced to stone-age plod n' slug - but neither has any choice. Down the stretch - free swinging, licking lefts and rights up underneath have Bell folding forward hurt behind her gloves. Charlize helps herself to lower back, cruelly bludgeoning her rival's kidneys - threatening to score a knockdown at the bell as Cat's legs bend, but don't give way as the ref jumps in!!

Round 10: Battered beauties shuffle into one another, push each other back out to arm's length, then continue the crude, shellacking two way. Bell getting the better of it - using that pawing left to those throbbing tits to distract Charlize, or extending it to push back Theron's right bicep - setting up those brutal right hands to that perky mound of black and blue left breast. Charlize windblown, leaning upright against the ropes and just staring into Cat's sweeping right hands to the head - blonde just can't get out of the way at this point. Theron doing enough to survive - clinching breathless, brawling back groggy off the ropes, but it's Bell's round - brunette finishing strong, settles down to pound Charlize' ribs heavy-handed, rising lefts and rights as the ref enforces the break. Comes back a UD10...CHARLIZE THERON!

After: Theron shuddering as she breaks down into exhausted tears - she's never asked herself for as much in a fight as she did tonight. Bell beaten unrecognizable, standing bleak, devastated - Theron's hand raised in victory over her AGAIN is an icy dagger in the proud brunette's heart. Charlize bumbling over at the stagger, grabbing Cat's bikini top and pulling her to her. Charlize with sweaty embrace and a smoldering hot kiss (off?) followed by groggy gloating from blonde prompts a mumbling protest as Cat pushes and struggles weakly to get free. Both so hurt, so incoherent; it's so pathetic to see two proud warriors straining at each other like this!.

"I toyed with her," slurs Charlize postfight, her glassy eyes obscured by a cascade of damp, golden hair. "Seriously - she was all but out after the first, so I carried her, gave her a beating to remember. She fought her heart out, I will give her that, but was she a threat? Never - I was never badly hurt. I just heaped it on her and proved beyond a shadow of a doubt, now and forever more: I'm the better woman!"

Bell disconsolate, but the classiest dame in boxing has some words for the press despite the agony of another loss to her one-time friend and now bitter enemy. "She hurt me terribly in the first," Cat admitted through swollen lips. "Honestly, I thought I was going out. I pulled it together and gave her everything she wanted tonight, but I couldn't do the things I wanted to do. I'm embarrassed - I basically brawled with her, fought stupid with her. I know I'm classier and better technically than she is but I just couldn't execute the way I wanted."

Charlize Theron vs. Catherine "Cat" Bell (XIV) by simguy 12-31-05

One hour - that's the length of Charlize' audio-visual assault in prefight - a vicious, gloating, glorious recap of Theron's career-long struggle to subjugate and ultimately annihilate Catherine Bell. "She's finished," a beaming Charlize concludes when lights come up - crowd still reeling from the knockouts, the beatings, the strutting majesty of Theron dominating her hated rival over the years. "Early in my career I vowed that I would drive Cat Bell into retirement and that goal is very nearly accomplished. Cat can measure the time left in her boxing life not in years, not in months, but in PUNCHES at this point. I'm just a few select shots away from ruining Bell for good!"

Cat visibly rattled, shiny-eyed: vindictive sensory onslaught has left her psychologically bruised, battered. She collects herself at the podium, speaks in a low, trembling voice as she addresses Charlize directly. "You and I have been to some low places together, Charlize," Bell says as grinning Theron lifts a glass in toast. "But what you put me through today is unforgivable. I've beaten you and I've broken you in the past, but I've never tormented you or rubbed your face in it like you just did to me. I hope that made you happy, Charlize. Because you're going to pay for it!"

Theron taunting loud boo-hoos as Bell angrily storms out of the conference - rivalry back on with a vengeance. Charlize in cream dream bikini, long cream silk kimono with a golden Oscar on the back during ring instructions: Bell in electric blue bikini, shimmering, mid-thigh, Thai silk kimono during instructions that looks blue from one angle, green from another. Bell turning on her heel rather than touching gloves, spurning Charlize' sarcastic offer.

Round 1: Bell batting gloves together, marching to Charlize midring: Theron grinning, hands low - she flaps a tapping backhand jab, slaps a right across Cat's face, slides back a step and BELL LIGHTS CHAR UP! Big sweeping right spanks off face - Theron momentarily staggered - she snarls, plants feet wide, rips a robust right to belly: both women toss hooks and THERON GETS ROCKED! Charlize stumbling to her right, extending the left to hold Cat off - Bell steps in another overhand right AND ANOTHER - hammering Theron upside the head, driving her face-first to ropes. Char slumps against strands, right under her chin, left at her tummy and CAT'S PASTING AWAY FACE PUNCHES! Bell's eyes utterly pitiless as she steadies Charlize a cupping left over her right breast, bracing her for the drifting right - then back the other way to grab puppy with the right and slug with the left! Theron just facing open-mouthed into abuse, blinking uncomprehendingly, then CHARLIZE SLUGS BACK! Blonde instinctively dips to her right, rolling another creaming Cat right, twists to haul a right hand flat to Cat's paunch, then cashes in hook on chops to BUCKLE BELL'S LEGS! Cat's knees lock up - she's stepping in fence post holes - deep breath Charlize as she trudges off the apron, slapping Cat an open-palm left on the jaw, drifting her a walloping right cross. Bell slobberknocked - battered across the ring to hit far ropes - SHE covers up earmuff, stooped forward behind her mitts as THERON GOES TO TOWN! Charlize palming broad brunette shoulders, pulling the right elbow back then SHOVING home righty to breadbasket. Palm: lefty to breadbasket. Palm: lathering hook in behind the elbow. AND CAT HOOKS SACK! Bell absorbing body blows, times 'em and unravels Charlize once again with a hard hook under the left breast, then a raucous chin blast that PUTS CHARLIZE WOBBLY BUTT! A left uppercut sends Char's mouthpiece fluttering skyward - then Cat ties her up; twists and spins Theron to ropes, stacking her up for a body-to-body beatdown! OH THE HUMANITY! Bell stamping straight criss-crossing rights and lefts to Charlize' jumping, jiggling jugs - blonde curls in Theron's eyes, lips parting in shock as Cat feverishly drums those perky, award-winning breasts! Charlize sagging, her butt stuffed in the ropes, hands drooping - and Cat goes back to that gorgeous face! Lusty clapping left hooks and drifting right crosses - Cat just belting away as poor Charlize stares helplessly, head bouncing to and fro.

DING! DANG! DONG! Cat weeping, piling on extra - ref has to body her back off the trembling blonde wreckage. Charlize in stupor, hammered back to the stone age - her corner rushes out to collect her and gingerly coax her to her stool. Bell banged up and rocked herself - concerned Syren splashing water on her charge, getting Cat to focus:

Syren: "No BS, Cat: how are you?"
Cat: "'M hurt..."
Syren: "OK, baby listen to me. Scrap the plan, you got it? Just forget what we worked on - put mitts on meat baby. Take her out!"

Round 2: Ramshackle beauties totter to midring - Bell more together, right at her cheek: Charlize' eyelashes all aflutter, lips parted - her legs aren't all the way back. Cat steps in a lead hook, catching chin, crouching on follow through as Char paws a feeble left into empty space as Cat comes up out of the crouch, hooks chin again, crouches down on follow through: Charlize backing up, blinking, hands low. Cat: right cross; deep crouch over her front (left) foot; big step forward with her right foot and a booming left cross onna chin. Theron sponging KO blows, staggering backward with how-could-you eyes - she hits ropes in a fog - Bell squares away to do damage.

Oh, the beatdown!

It starts in Charlize' tummy - Cat crouching low, twisting side to side to strap in thick rights and lefts on waist, buckling Theron forward behind her guard. Robust left uppercut splits CT's mitts, snapping her upright, back against ropes, hands drooping to her chest. Cat back to that face-pasting technique - bracing Charlize a left on her breast, drifting her right; hooking her jaw to reset so she can drive in lusty another right. Theron's mouthpiece dribbles past numb lips - she's out on her feet, staring, forlorn - and Cat's just stroking away! Theron's face switching left and right, jerking back - torso drooping. Bell cruelly forsaking the quick KO, starts to body-on; pressing Charlize up against the ropes to reposition her slackened weight. OH THOSE BODY BLOWS! Bell working out of the wrap late, riding her left across Charlize upper back, slumping her forward for heartless, hoisting right hands. Red tummy and wildly bouncing tits both rudely bombarded as Cat ignores the bell, mindless shoving home more heavy-handed punishment until ref has to physically disentangle her! Theron, shipwrecked; straggly hair cascading over her eyes, legs rickety - wanders around in a daze until corner once again collects her, guides her home.

Round 3: Bell breathing hard, but marching forward with an aggressive batting-together of gloves: she's all business tonight. Charlize ransacked, barely there - easily packaged up and walked meekly back to ropes, head lolling sleepily on limp neck. Back to that body - Cat Bell treating herself to plunging lefts and rights, drawing the elbows back and shoving leather home. Jugs? Oh yeah! Cat tears 'em up, bringing misty tears to Theron's eyes as blonde droops forward on the take. Charlize pliable, badly broken down, but clinching and tying up for breaks - ref pushing seething Cat away as shopworn Theron sags back into ropes with a heartbroken look. Bell grinning, wading back in, fists at her chest, then she'll dip or twist to one side, loading up either mitt and PLOWING home the hurt. Late the round, Charlize sliding to her right - Cat stepping-with, jabbing at Theron's open mouth, then ducking in to drive a soul-sucking straight right hand in under Charlize' left breast. Sob of wonder/agony from Charlize as once again she collapses into the ropes - howitzer heart punch paralyzes Golden Goddess who folds forward, hugging herself, presenting her back and flanks to Cat's merciless drubbing to the bell. Ref grabs Cat's arms from behind - she twists free, pushes into Charlize to bellow incoherently in Charlize' dazed, bleary-eyed face, blowing blonde curls back.

Round 4: Cat trudging forward, mouth open - she's gassed and CHARLIZE STARTS PUNCHING! Foggy, midring slugging - Charlize on widespread legs, just reaching in to knuckle up inside Cat's elbows, pushing Bell's arms back, then stroking her chin left uppercuts, right hands. Theron rickety, but coaxing stroke out of long limbs - she's getting the licking left uppie, sliding back half a step to let Cat stumble forward into the right cross. Brilliant fighting in reverse from Charlize, tagging Cat's chin - Bell ashambles, tottering forward - Theron sidesteps and lets CAT CLATTER TO ALL FOURS WITH HER FACE BETWEEN THE ROPES! Charlize staggery, but buoyed by the sight of destitute Cat - Charlize roaring drunkenly, hands raised, groggy-strutting around the ring as ref tries to restore order. Cat climbs ropes, mumbling, "'M OK...'M fine" to ref. And HERE COMES CHARLIZE! Unholy payback - grim Theron squares up wide, bracing Cat a left on the chest and PLASTERING HER THE BIG RIGHT CROSS! Bell's head flung hard to starboard - she sags into ropes - Charlize just pawing her with measuring left hands and POURING HOME RIGHTY! Cat out on her feet, not responding - Charlize inexplicably comes off the chin to exact retribution on Bell's heaving jugs! Crowd roaring to it's feet and saluting as Charlize tightens up stroke to shrug away rising lefts and rights on that world-class rack: Krusher corner insane, shrieking "CHIN CHARLIZE! CHIN! PUNCH HER CHIN!" But Char won't have it. Bell: Cat blubbering - Theron stacking her up, then hoisting extra punches up into heaving rack - ref has to pull rampaging blonde off brunette carcass. Both women petitioned by ref at this point to accept a draw and quit this thing: both groggily determined to trudge on.

Round 5: Just watching them walk to midring a sickening sight: both beauties beaten beyond recognition, sluggish brains no longer in full command of quivering limbs - it's all just instinct at this point. Charlize making it as simple as possible: 1.) Palm Cat's shoulders, line her up; 2.) Smoke Cat the left uppercut, get her clouted and stunned; 3.) Rip right/left to waist, crippling Cat and getting her to droop forward; 4.) Clean up jugs and chin with lanky, rising rights and lefts, back Cat to ropes; 5.) Unleash hell when Bell's ropeside. At the apron - Charlize' punching is lanky - she's just slopping on the hurt, propping and bracing Cat to position her. Theron pasting face and body in equal measure: she's crowding in over Cat's right shoulder, all the better to haul in slinging rights flat n' brutal to midsection. Bell a sobbing ruin - mouth open, unable to answer back - senseless beating goes on and on with a crude, bludgeoning rhythm until finally, Cat droops to all fours. Bell's head bowed, tortured belly panting in and out: Charlize staggering, staring down in boozy wonder - ref carefully walking Theron back before she can indulge herself. Neutral corner - Theron draping arms over the ropes, facing into press row and slurring: "It's over! It's over!" - she doesn't see Cat's Herculean effort to drag herself up by the ropes, just beating the count!

Round 6: Charlize now arm-weary, exhausted, unable to leg her way out of harm's way: Cat Bell gets to try again. Bell trudging, eyes swollen to slits - she measures Char an extended left, just propping Theron's chin up with the back of that hand, staring into Theron's pleading eyes: crashing right cross on the face jerks CT 90 degrees, sends her sprawling to her right. Charlize clutching the ropes, dangling off them, presenting her left side and back - Bell grim-faced, wading in and heartlessly POUNDING left hip, tummy, back and even her BUTT with mindless, sloshing lefts and rights. Taut flesh bunching up under harsh wallop - Charlize paralyzed, sponging on the ropes - ref bodies Bell back, giving Theron precious time to collect herself. Deep breath Cat Bell - she trudges back in: CT drooping forward between her mitts, gets picked up a CLANGING short right uppercut. Theron's face puffy with stupor, eyebrows high, eyes closed, mouth in a plaintive, pursed 'o': Bell palms CT's biceps, shoves her deep into the ropes and starts shoveling on the punishment...
Left hand firm at Char's right shoulder: right hands dig-dig-digging at the paunch.
Sidearm delivery: Cat bringing that right mitt back past her hip to load up...
Right uppercut/left uppercut - busting Charlize upright...
Pounding straight right hands concuss off the breasts: shotgun bright blasts ricocheting off her bruised, ruddy chest!
Painwracked sobs from Charlize as she sponges the heart punches, cringing in paralysis...

Charlize helpless. No longer responding. Just a slab of blonde meat to be propped and punished at the ropes, her hands low, eyes fluttering shut, torso drooping forward as Bell mindlessly shoves and slugs, pouring her heart and soul into the task of destroying Charlize... AND THE REF STEPS IN! IT"S PANDEMONIUM!!

Charlize out on her feet, lolling dreamily in the man's arms; Cat staggering away, uncomprehending, then bursting into emotional tears when she realizes she's stopped Theron; Krusher corner charging the ring, shrieking, "WHAT'RE YOU DOING! HOW CAN YOU STOP THE FIGHT! SHE WAS JUST ABOUT TO UNLEASH..." It's TKO6 Cat Bell in one of the most ruinous punching fights of this long and distinguished series.

After: Milling throng in the ring - Bell's face being iced as she stands hushed and wincing in her corner. Charlize coming around, disbelieving when she's told of her collapse - Char's still out of it when she swims her way through the crowd to get to Cat! Words exchanged - hot, hateful, slurring words. Unforgettable, unforgivable words. Bell pushing Charlize away: Theron petulant, insistent, reaching feebly for Cat's throat, fingers outstretched.

It's too much for Bell! She lifts her arms in an abrupt block, batting Char's weakened limbs up high: quick, vicious chop-chop of both hands, the knife-edges biting in above Theron's hips! Charlize' gasp of agony, her body spasming…Then Cat pulls her in!

Crowd screaming! Jeri Ryan in the audience, grinning in disbelief. Britney Daniel shrieking into her cell phone, "I'M TOTALLY SERIOUS! CAT'S SMOTHERING CHARLIZE! PUTTING THE JUGS TO THE GREAT CHARLIZE 'FUCKIN'' THERON!"

Bell easing Theron back into her turnbuckles, her left arm snug behind Charlize neck - Theron's damp locks cool on Cat's bicep. Right hand cupped atop Charlize' head, then clenching into a hard white fist, holding the hair close to the scalp. Cat's face: rigid, lips clenched tight - it's Cat Bell giving into all the dark urges she's been repressing for years when it comes to Theron.

Jessica Simpson jiggles into the ring, charges in to stop the awful JMD ("Juggs of Mass Destruction") but Cat sees her and snaps out her left leg, her foot intercepting Jess as it slams square between her world class boobs, knocking her over backward and sprawling the little blond beauty on her butt with a snarl. As Simpsy writhes in pain clutching her own jugs, Cat cinches up, ignoring Charlize' muffled whimpers - it's all spiraling out of control and there's no going back now!!

Syren warily approaches, hand light on Cat's arm. "Let her go," Syren whispers, concerned not for Charlize, but for Bell herself. Tears in Cat's eyes: no way! She cinches up again, jerking away from Syren's touch, resting her cheek against Charlize' cheek.
