[Jillian] I slept most of Saturday and still felt terrible late in the day but I was determined to watch the final fight. Ken and I arrived just before fight time and one of my friends had saved us seats 6 rows back from ringside.

[Announcer 2] “Ladies and gentlemen, this fight is scheduled for 10 rounds for the championship and first place money of $50,000 US. “In the corner to my right from Jamaica, she stands 5’ 7” tall and weighed in at 132 pounds, she has won all three of her bouts by knockout, please welcome Tekina Tavares.” [Resounding Applause] “Tekina looks stunning in a white thong bikini. Local support for this lady has been overwhelming in this tournament. [Applause dies down] “In the corner to my left from the Czech Republic standing 5’ 9” tall and weighed in at 138 pounds, with wins in this tournament coming by way of a decision, a knockout and a disqualification, I give you Jitka Zabrzova.” [Applause] “Jitka looks spectacular in a red thong bikini. Both ladies are wearing white 8 oz. gloves.

[Announcer 1] “The referee, Richard Cox, has called the ladies to the center of the ring for final instructions and they have now returned to their respective corners as we anxiously await the bell to begin round 1.”

[Announcer 1] “Round 1 begins quickly as Zabrzova wastes no time going to Tavares’s body with some brutal shots. Tavares is hurt by a couple and almost panics as she desperately attempts to cover up and block the Czech’s punches. Tavares clinches to get a breather and regain her composure. Tavares attempts to remain on the outside but Zabrzova wades in deflecting the Jamaican’s punches and again goes to work on the smaller woman’s body. Tavares is hurt by a heavy body shot of the Czech and drops to one knee after taking a right to the top of her bikini. Tavares takes an 8 count before getting to her feet. Cox cleans her gloves. The ladies square off and Zabrzova moves in to continue her punishment of Tavares’s body but is caught by a looping Tavares right which drops the Czech lady on her shapely bum. The Czech rolls onto her knees and gets to her feet using the ropes. The referee cleans her gloves and calls for the ladies to box. Zabrzova looks dazed as Tavares moves in to score another big right. Zabrzova takes 3 or 4 unanswered punches but Tavares can’t put her away before the bell ends the round.”

[Announcer 2] “These ladies are just hammering each other. There is no way that they can last 10 rounds. Tavares is definitely having difficulty breathing after taking numerous body shots. Zabrzova has a small mouse under her left eye and she appears a little confused.”

[Announcer 1] “We begin round 2 with Tavares moving out quickly to try and finish off the still dazed Czech and scores a big right on the first punch. Zabrzova drapes her arms around the shorter black lady and hangs on. Cox pulls the ladies apart. Zabrzova looks shaky but attempts to get to the inside and is caught again with a looping Tavares right. The Czech is wobbly but bodily pushes Tavares to the corner. Zabrzova works on the Jamaican’s body in the corner with Tavares’s left breast being bounced from her top. The crowd goes wild as Zabrzova tattoos the Jamaican’s bare breast with a combination and Tavares is forced halfway through the ropes before the Cox halts the action. The ref helps Tavares pull her top back up. Zabrzova seems confident as she moves in on Tavares but is caught with yet another hard looping right from the black lady. Zabrzova is cut above her left eye. Blood is streaming down the Czech’s face and she is preoccupied with the cut allowing Tavares to score with two blistering rights to her breasts before the round ends.”

[Announcer 2] “Tavares seemed to come alive that round but did take some brutal punches to her breasts and body. Zabrzova’s left eye is swollen with a nasty little cut on her eyebrow. Her corner is assuring her that it’s nothing as they work to stop the bleeding.”

[Announcer 1] (Round 3) “Both ladies move out briskly to meet each other. Zabrzova’s corner has done a great job on the cut above her eye. Zabrzova blasts her way to the inside flailing away at Tavares’s breasts and mid section as she nails the black lady with a brutal right well down on her bikini. The Jamaican wraps her arms around the Czech to halt the onslaught. Referee Cox steps between the ladies, separates them and calls for them to box. Tavares misses Zabrzova with a big right as the Czech moves inside and continues pounding at the Jamaican’s body. An uppercut spills both of Tavares’s breasts from her bikini top and the Czech hammers away at the Jamaican’s exposed breasts with a series of brutal punches forcing the black lady onto her knees. The crowd goes wild. Tavares struggles to her feet and the referee, Cox, pulls her top into place before calling the ladies to box. Zabrzova rushes in but takes a left, then a big right that opens up the cut on her left eyebrow. The Czech hangs on, her head against Tavares’s chest. Blood from Zabrzova’s eye is running down the Jamaican’s chest and staining her white bikini. The ref pulls the ladies apart and has a quick look at Zabrzova’s eye before calling for the ladies to box. A couple of jabs are exchanged before the bell ends another exciting round.”

[Announcer 2] “Both corners work frantically on their fighters. The cut above Zabrzova’s eye has worsened and the doctor has a look and will allow her to continue fighting. Zabrzova appears concerned but her corner does a great job of reassuring her and stopping the bleeding. Tavares’s corner people are holding ice packs on both of the black lady’s breasts and try to tighten her bikini top to restrain her swollen breasts.”

[Announcer 1] (Round 4) “Zabrzova moves quickly toward Tavares who backs away jabbing at the Czech. Zabrzova takes a couple of punches as she moves inside. The cut on Zabrzova’s eyebrow begins to bleed but she continues her attack with a blistering right to the top of Tavares’s bikini. Tavares is hurt. The Czech bullies the vulnerable Jamaican to the corner with rights and lefts to her breasts, midsection and head. Tavares attempts to fight her way out of the corner. The ladies wrestle along the ropes and into Zabrzova’s corner, Tavares bikini top has failed again and the crowd is on their feet as the two warriors go toe to toe pounding each other. Tavares drops Zabrzova with a short right to her chin. The Czech lady is dazed but straggles valiantly to beat the count. Zabrzova is glassy eyed and wobbly, blood running down her face from the cut on her left eyebrow. Cox doesn’t bother to holster the black lady’s breasts as he calls for the ladies to box. Tavares moves in driving Zabrzova to the neutral corner with a flurry of punches and now the Czech’s breasts are loose. It’s mayhem as the crowd pushes closer to the ring. Cox allows the action to continue as the ladies go toe to toe battering each other’s exposed breasts. Tavares connects with a right uppercut that snaps Zabrzova’s head back sending her mouth piece flying into the crowd. Tavares continues with a left and a blistering right to the Czech’s chin and Zabrzova topples backward like a felled tree to the mat. Jitka Zabrzova is out cold near the middle of the ring, the only movement is the rise and fall of her beautiful exposed breasts as she breathes and the blood running down her cheek, pooling on the mat. The referee begins to count then waves off the count and indicates that the fight is over. He calls for the doctor and Zabrzova’s corner people to help the incapacitated fighter.”

[Announcer 1] “Ms. Zabrzova is now conscious after being out for a couple of minutes and the doctor has called for a stretcher to carry her from the ring. Tikina Tavares, the only black lady in the tournament, had trouble with the 5’ 9” Czech but maintains a perfect record of 4 knockouts to win the tournament and take home first place money. My colleague has gone to Zabrzova’s dressing room to get an update on her condition. Meanwhile, at ringside, the crowd of Tavares supporters is celebrating exuberantly.”

[Jillian] “It was determined that Jitka had suffered a broken jaw but would be fine. The losers and some winners will be in some pain while they nurse their injuries but most of us will be chomping at the bit to get back into the ring. I’m not sure what is next for me. I’ve had some offers and suggestion that I will discuss later.”
