[kyslai]

1. A relative unknown, Regan takes down Lively in a very competitive bout
2. Righetti uses brute force to eliminate an agressive, but overmatched Larter
3. Keibler takes some lumps, but is able to wrap her legs around Lancaster to force a submission
4. Durance uses her athleticism to take a slower, bulkier Beyonce

Semi's
1. Righetti shows some suprising athletic skills to win an otherwise brute force battle with Regan
2. Durance nearly gets caught in Keibler's legs, but ends up using Kiebler's legs against her, winning with a figure 4 submission

Finals
1. With both ladies equally worn out from earlier battles, Durance is able to use her greater stamina to eventually pin down a very worn out Righetti.

[Wheelman]

1. Blake Lively uses those long legs to squeeze the fight out of Regan.
2. Righetti makes short work of Larter
3. The long-limbed Kiebler comes out on top but Lancaster makes her work for it.
4. Beyonce over Durance in a hard fought battle

Semi's - Righetti over Lively and Kiebler over Beyonce

Finals - STRONG beats l-o-n-g as Amanda Righetti overpower's Stacy Kiebler for the win.

A nice short but sweet tournament Tommy. People cant sit around and complain about this board being dead if there not willing to do something about it.

I'd love to read a few more opinions!

First Round:
Bridget twists Blake's pretty body like a toy and it's Bye Bye, Blake.

Larter and Righetti exchange brutal body shots, kicks and smashes, but at one point Larter just collapses down, battered into groggy defeat.

Keibler loses her height advantage early - down on the ground she's helpless against Sarah's meaty, strong body that makes her squirm in tight pins and chokes. Sarah sits proudly on Stacy's beaten body, her legs uselessly outstretched, in tears.

Durance gives it her athletic best but she can't handle Beyonce's beef. She takes her to the limit, and Beyonce is almost too exhausted to fight any more but finally Erica lacks the strength to climb out under B.'s thick body again and gets ass-smothered.

Semis:
Bridget puts up a great fight but she just can't handle what's coming at her. Amanda uses her up, takes her down, but Bridget fights like a lion to extend the match at every opportunity. To no avail: once those legs shut around her for good, it's over for her.

Sarah used her weight and beef to beat Stacy - now she goes against a similar body type. Her advantage is gone - but Beyonce's dance routines and steely fitness give her a strength and stamina advantage over Sarah's more chubby body. Sarah's ruined, totally exhausted and cries out in pain and horror even before Beyonce moves her ass on her face.

Finals:
Amanda gives Beyonc? a lesson in efficiency. Righetti can't just take her out easily, but she can evade B.'s strength, fight the battle at her own terms, use her up. B. just wants to go beef-to-beef but Amanda's arms and legs kick out of nowhere, keep her off, frustrate her. When she's battled her ready, Righetti goes all in, and Beyonc? ends up clutched, caught between Amanda's thighs, crying for help.

Gotta do a little more research on these gals but, for the moment:

1) I am undecided about Regan vs. Lively. I've seen Legend of the Seeker but I have not watched Gossip Girl. Despite her appearance on Legend, Regan is actually a natural red-head. Red-heads are fighters so perhaps she will handle Lively.

2) Righetti vs. Larter - definitely Righetti. I just have to figure out how she takes her out. Righetti is a puncher.

3) Keibler vs. Lancaster - definitely Lancaster. she's tall and looks strong. Keibler would be crushed even in a wrestling match.

4) Knowles vs. Durance - unfortunatley Knowles takes out Durance because she outweighs her by 20 lbs. Would have preferred to see Knowles and Lancaster tangle although I suspect Knowles outweighs Lancaster by at least 10 pounds. That booty does not quite and is hard to overcome when fighting on the floor. Interested to see that some members have Erica taking out Knowles. She is coming up in the world. Maybe you should match her against Righetti next poll.

I will check in tomorrow with my final votes.

Great poll. A good way to keep the board running when no stories are being written.

A question: Do you think that we should publish old stories (with attribution to the original authors? It might be the right stiumulus for the board.

[MindCastle]

Bridget Ragan vs. Blake Lively
Bridget Regan, giving up 2 inches to Blake Lively, fights a smart fight by tackling her down to the mat immediately at the start of the fight. Regan, who is a 'natural redhead' under her current dark locks, has always been fiesty and a bit of a tomboy. She had her share of fights and she was not the goody-two-shoes that everyone thought she was; she could be a 'bad girl' when she had to be. Once on top of Lively, she surprised her by slapping her face back and forth until tears were coming down Lively's face. Lively recovered somewhat by grabbing Regan by the hair and rolling her off but when they recovered to there feet, Bridget connected with a solid punch to Blake's belly. As Blake bent over trying to catch her breast, Bridget grabbed her by the hair and unloaded punch after punch to her ribs and sides and then dropped her to the floor with two axe-handle chops between the shoulders. As Blake goes sprawling on to her belly, Bridget mounds her and straddles her waist. Grabbing Blake under the chin, she pulls back and gains a surprise quick submission.

Amanda Righetti vs. Ali Larter
Ali Larter was to be little more than a warm-up sparring partner for Amanda Righetti. Visibly fearful of Righetti, Larter tried to clinch immediately to avoid Righetti's infamous power punches. Regardless, Righetti peppered her with short punches to the ribs and waist. In desperation, Ali reaches up and pulls Righetti's bikini top down. Righetti, shocked by the sudden exposure, stands motionless looking down at her bare breasts. Taking this unique opportunity, Ali connects with a roundhouse punch to Amanda chin that not only drives her back but has her seeing stars. On rubber legs, Righetti becomes the recipient of some hard body punches that drives her back into the turnbuckel of the ring. As Ali continues her punishment of Righetti's softening abs, Amanda drops to her butt and just sits in the corner. The audience was in shock that the blonde sat the favored redhead on her ass and that it appeared likely that Larter would soon close the deal. Ali, looking to finish off the tournament favorite, grabs Righetti by the hair and pulls her to her feet. As she readies to slam Amanda face first into the mat, Amanda reverses position, reaches between her legs, lifts her up and slams her to the mat in a display of brute power. Righetti backs off and allows Ali to recover to her feet. With glazed eyes, Larter advances on Righetti only to be stopped by a combination, belly punch, uppercut and sweeping right hand to the jaw. Larter is out on her feet as she crumples to the floor. At the end of a long 10 count, Larter is still counting tweety birds.

Stacey Keibler vs. Sarah Lawrence
Stacey Keibler was very confident as she entered the ring against a relative newcomer to the fight game. Sarah Lancaster had fought only twice before. Although she thoroughly beat her opponents, neither of them were considered tournament-class competition. The word was the Keiber was going to teach Sarah the ropes; the hard way. Betraying the butterfies in her stomach, Sarah looked calm and collected. She knew that it would be no shame to fall to a former professional wrestler but she also knew that a victory would be oh so sweet. She had researched Keiber fights had learned that Stacey was deadly when standing because of her long reach. She also learned that Keibler's supposedly great legs were not really that great when it came to wrestling. Sarah noted that Stacey had never won a match by using her legs to submit another woman. Sarah's strategy was to get Stacey on the deck and then overpower her with her strength and weight. Unbeknownst to many was the fact that Sarah was no stranger to a catfight. She had gone to college on a full athletic scholarhip. Some claimed that she was 'an animal' when playing field hockey. Sarah followed her plan to the T as she locked up with Stacey in a double handled hair pull and then tripped Stacey to the mat. In a bit of luck, Sarah landed hard on Stacey's stomach and immediately Stacey was hurt and winded. As Stacey turned over to protect her face as Sarah started punching down on her, Sarah mounted her waist and beat the prone Keilber in the back and head. Sarah was strong and her side punches were breaking through Stacey's hands and landing on Keibler high cheek bones and doing damage as Keiber cheek became read and started to welt-up. Keiber bucked the inexperienced Lancaster off sending her flying ass of Tea-kettle. Keiber was on her like a cat but, in an instance, Lancaster over powered Keiber and reversed the position and was soon on top of Keibler, pinning her. Lawrence butt-whomped Keibler's tinny waist several times each time softening Keiber hard belly muscles. Keibler, realizing that she was in trouble tried to fight herself out of the pin. Lawrence surf-boarded her and kept the pin and improved upon it by moving into a cross body pin that effectively immobiized her right arm and pinned Stacey's left arm down with her right. With her free right hand, Sarah reigned down punch after hard punch into Keibler's solar-plexus moving slowing down to her belly, then her lower belly, and then... Stacey screamed her defeat before Sarah reached her sweet spot. This was a suprise victory for Sarah although she never felt that she would lose. She proved herself a strong and capable figher and more than a match for the fragile looking Keibler. As Sarah took her victory lap around the ring, Stacey remained immobile on the mat in a fetal position nursing her sore belly.

Beyonce Knowles vs. Erica Durance
Beyonce was looking for a quick victory or the 125 lbs. Durance. Outweighing Durance by over 15 lbs., Beyonce planned to take Durance down to the mat where she would crush her and dominate her. She fully planned to end the match with her signature booty-sit on Erica's pretty face. Erica realized that she could probably not outwrestle Beyonce because of the weight difference. Instead, her plan was to keep Beyonce at arms length and pepper her with jabs and punches gradually wearing her down. She would work her body and hurt her as much as she could. Erica was a competent and experienced boxer by tournament standards and she noticeably packed quite a punch. She had won two previous tournament fights by ending the fights with a TKO. As the fight began, Beyonce charged Durance. Durance gracefully stepped aside and allowed Knowles to drive by. As she did, Durance thumped Beyonce in the back with a downward clenched fist that sent Beyonce falling foward and landing chest first on the mat. Beyonce was more embarrassed than hurt as she got slowly to her feet. Closing as Erica once again, the two women grabbed each other by the hair and started hauling each other around the ring. Durance appeared to be getting the worse of the hairpulling as Beyonce controlled the 'dance' and seemed to be having her way with Durance. Rapidly loosing ground, Durance released one hand from Knowles' hair and connected with three quick uppercut to Knowles chest and stomach. Knowles released Durance's hair and backed off with one hand holding her stomach and the other her left breast. Recovering Knowles charged Durance again - this time, taking three punches to the head as Durance stopped the charge. Knowles was down again and she was dazed by Erica's hard punches. As Beyonce layed sprawled on the mat, Durance staddled her waist and unloaded with numerous punches to Beyonce head. The sound of the punches landing could be heard throughout the room as Erica's fist landed on the hard bone of Beyonce face. Too stubborn or proud to give up, Beyonce corner threw in the towel to signal the end of the fight.

At the end of the evening, the four victorious women gathered to determine their opponent for the semi-finals. Each woman wanted the championship so were hoping for the easiest opponent. Durance drew the short straw and was thereby given the choice; she selected Bridget Regan as her opponent. Most knowledgeable people thought Regan's victory over Lively was a bit of a fluke and felt that Durance was a much more calcuating and competent fighter. Relieved that she would not have to fight Righetti or Lawrence in the semi-finals, Durance smiled broadly realizing that having to fight either one of them would have taxed her for the finals, if she survived at all. She was hopeful that Rigetti would beat Lancaster. She had been compared to Righetti on numerous occasions and most felt that Rigetti was the better figher. If Rigetti survived her fight with Sarah Lawrence, Erica was going to do everything in her power to prove them wrong. After picking Regan's name, Erica looked directly at Righetti and smiled; Amanda returned the smile and wet her lips in secret challenge. Even if Righetti did not survive Lawrence, Durance knew that she and Righetti would be getting it on sooner than later. Regardless of who is the eventual winner, if she did not fight Righetti in the finals, she fully intended to call out Righetti for a private fight just as soon as both recovered from the tournament. .

Hey, MindCastle, that was really good! I especially enjoyed your take on the Keibler - Lancaster match-up. Two (former) dancers going at it is always a welcome sight/thought. That's the way to deal with Stacy; get in close, take the legs out of the equation and you're in with a good shot. Sarah pulled it off perfectly and deservedly came out on top. All in all, like I said, great job. You should do this more often. Thanks for the entertainment and I hope you find the time and the inclination to do the rest of the tourney.

Yes, that was fun to read - hope you'll continue!
