After Ivanna Payne’s destruction of Candy Carpenter, Liberty Lane ran in to save her friend. After weeks of recuperation, healing, and training, Liberty was back to stop Ivanna’s rampage!
Liberty challenged Ivanna to a match in 2 weeks. Ivanna not only accepted the challenge, but let Liberty know she was ready to fight right here and now. Then, she raised the stakes by suggesting a Retirement Match.
Liberty accepted and got ready for the fight of her life!
- Liberty Lane had returned to the locker rooms to prepare for her match with Ivanna Payne. Ivanna waited in the ring, taking in the boos of the crowd. Finally, after almost 30 minutes, Liberty Lane had returned to the ring! The crowd rose to its feet as their heroine, the legendary Liberty Lane approached her rival. Ivanna just looked down in disdain. Each fighter’s career in the Foxy Boxing League was on the line tonight. Would Liberty Lane triumph, stopping Ivanna’s rampage and career, and re-building her championship-worthy reputation? Or would Ivanna Payne triumph, ending Liberty’s career and moving on to conquer more women? By the end of tonight’s match, those questions will be answered.
- Ivanna Payne returned to her corner, never taking her eyes off her opponent. She raised her arms up high as she was introduced, enjoying the jeers of the crowd. “LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, FIGHTING OUT OF THE RED CORNER, WITH AN UNDEFEATED RECORD… IVANNA PAYNE!” After demolishing Candy Carpenter, she was ready to take down the fans’ heroine.
- Liberty Lane was making her return to the ring tonight after coming in to help a prone Candy Carpenter. The fans knew she was the one to take Ivanna Payne down and cheered her on to fight tonight. She lifted her arms high in a proud, confident pose. “AND FIGHTING OUT OF THE BLUE CORNER, FORMER FOXY BOXING CHAMPION OF THE WORLD, THE LEGENDARY… LIBERTY LANE!” Liberty now waited for the bell to ring, eager to show Ivanna what a real fight would be like and to send her off to pasture.
- DING! DING! And the battle begins! Both tigresses circle each other looking for an opening. Ivanna looks cocky while Liberty remains all business.
- After what seemed like an eternity of dancing around each other, Liberty Lane moves in for attack. She shoots a rapid left straight into Ivanna’s head. But Payne is too quick and veers to her left, dodging the blow.
- And Ivanna returns with a left uppercut that catches Liberty square on the jaw! The blonde steps back to regroup and Ivanna follows her in.
- Liberty fires off another left to stop Ivanna, but Payne dodges the fist again and swerves in with a piercing right glove into Liberty’s body. Liberty is caught off-guard and is stunned by the force of the blow.
- Liberty moves in again with a wide right, but Ivanna is just too fast. The villain twists out of Liberty’s range, surprising her once again.
- Unfortunately, Liberty is not as fast and walks right into a wall in the shape of Ivanna’s left fist. Liberty’s head is twisted around thanks to a powerful punch from Ivanna. DING! And the bell rings ending the first round.
- Ivanna refuses to sit on her stool and leans back, confidently, observing the looks on some worried faces. “THIS is the legendary Liberty Lane? Heh. You people sure impress easily.” She’s answered with boos. Liberty Lane, meanwhile, also refuses to sit on her stool. She stands in her corner, looking re-energized. Despite her inability to land a solid punch, she knows how to use Ivanna’s over-confidence against her. Her spirit and energy are lifted by the chants of “LIBERTY! LIBERTY! LIBERTY!” DING! And the bell rings for Round 2!
- Liberty Lane comes out of her corner but is met by an advancing Ivanna Payne, who begins to pummel into the blonde. Liberty Lane blocks her punches, but keeps an eye out for an opening.
- Liberty is surprised by how powerful Ivanna’s blows are. She takes a staggering hit to the midsection, but absorbs the blow and looks ready to counter.
- Liberty backs up and shoots a defensive punch into Ivanna’s head, but the brunette easily swerves out of the way. Liberty is having a difficult time connecting with Payne!
- But Payne is having no difficulty connecting with Liberty! Ivanna pummels into Liberty with wide shots to the head and backs the female fighter into a corner. OH NO!
- Ivanna goes to work tearing down the ex-champion. She connects with solid blows to Liberty’s head. Liberty tries to block, but is completely overpowered by the fast and powerful Ivanna Payne. WHOA! And a right hook sends the cute blonde to the mat!
- Liberty Lane is on the canvas! She looks disoriented as the count begins. ONE… TWO… THREE… Liberty looks around the crowd and tries to pull herself up. FOUR… FIVE… SIX… Ivanna Payne looks down at her rival and shouts down at her, “Get up, champ! I’m not done with you! Get up!” SEVEN… EIGHT… DING! OH! Liberty Lane is saved by the bell! Ivanna walks back to her corner saying, “Ahh… this isn’t over…” Liberty staggers over to her own corner to recuperate.
- Ivanna stands tall in her corner. She looks over at Liberty and shouts out, “Rest up little girl… you’re gonna need it!” Liberty takes the stool this time, resting in her corner. She is surprised at how quick and powerful Ivanna Payne actually is. Even against Vanity Vale, Liberty was able to do some damage. But this time, she has spent the last two rounds getting squashed by Payne. Liberty knew she had to make this last round count. She was tired and hurt, but she was hoping for that magic punch or attack that could drop the tall brunette. The crowd still chanted, “LIBERTY! LIBERTY!” but some voices were becoming more silent. Liberty knew she had a lot on the line and this was the round to make it all count. DING! And the bell rang for the final round!
- Despite Liberty’s drive, her body begins to fail her. She slowly gets out of her corner at the sound of the bell, not realizing her guard is down, and swings wildly at Ivanna Payne. Payne easily ducks the blow…
- OOMPH! And Ivanna returns with an uppercut from the bottom! Liberty winces in pain as she takes another blow.
- Ivanna slams a hard right into Liberty’s head, driving her toward the ropes. She pounds into the blonde like a punching bag!
- Oh no! And Liberty Lane hits the canvas again! Liberty leans over to her side, looking out at the crowd, which lets out a collective gasp. Ivanna stands tall over her prone foe. The count begins! ONE… TWO… THREE…
- Ivanna looks down at the blonde with a sadistic smile. “Come on, champ… I dare you. Get back up! Now I’m really having fun. Come on… show us all what made you a legend in the first place!”
- Liberty Lane looks out at the crowd and begins to hear the chant rising. “LIBERTY! LIBERTY! LIBERTY!” Her fans are calling her to rise. Liberty’s strength slowly returns to her muscles and she begins to feel her adrenaline rise. The count continues, but Liberty fights through the pain. FOUR… FIVE…
- SIX… SEVEN… EIGHT… YES! And Liberty Lane, driven by the faith of her fans, rises by the count of eight! The cheers in the crowd are deafening! Ivanna raises her fists, not expecting her to beat the count.
- S-L-A-A-M!! As soon as Liberty stands upright, Ivanna crushes her newfound strength with a searing right fist! Liberty flies back into the ropes with Ivanna on her tight.
- Liberty has no means of escape as Ivanna works on dissecting her with a surgeon’s precision. Punch after punch digs in deeper into the blonde.
- Liberty’s arms fall down, trapped in the ropes. Ivanna dismantles the ex-champ with an array of easy hits. Liberty becomes a ragdoll for Ivanna to play with.
- Finally, Liberty falls onto Ivanna as the brunette continues to dig in to her belly. A cameraman gets in close and his boom mic captures the following audio, live, for all to hear: Liberty: “Please… stop… I give up. I’ll retire. P-please… no more…”
- Ivanna, with a wicked smile, responds: “Oh champ, you don’t understand. This isn’t about retiring voluntarily. No, I’M the one who gets to retire you. See, Vanity Vale broke your perfect record and took your belt. But me, I’m the one who’s going to break your spirit and break your career. Haha!”
- The last thing Liberty hears as Ivanna lifts her body with a final volley of blows is someone from the crowd yelling, “LIBERTY SUCKS! SHE’S A QUITTER!”
- Liberty Lane bounces off the ropes and collapses into a twisted heap onto the mat. All fight has left her and Ivanna stands back to witness the fall of a legend. The count begins. ONE… TWO… THREE…
- Ivanna Payne looks down at the broken woman at her feet. “You might have been good once… but you never met anyone like me.” FOUR… FIVE… SIX…
- Liberty Lane lies on the mat, body, spirit, and career broken. Some of the crowd boos Ivanna, but part of the crowd, after hearing Liberty’s surrender, begin to boo her. SEVEN… EIGHT… NINE… TEN! DING! DING! It’s over. “LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH, BY KNOCKOUT IN THE THIRD ROUND… IVANNA PAYNE!!”
- As soon as the bell rings, Ivanna, having lost all interest in Candy Carpenter, jumps down on Liberty. “Haha! Now, time to show the crowd my new trophy.” Ivanna then proceeds to rip off Liberty’s top and tosses it into the crowd!
- Ivanna Payne lifts up the defeated Liberty Lane and raises her body above her head in a massive show of strength. “I. DESTROY. LEGENDS!” The crowd boos as Ivanna takes it all in.
- Liberty Lane, once undefeated champion of the Foxy Boxing world, now lifted up as a sad trophy and symbol of defeat.
- Then, Ivanna Payne tosses Liberty’s limp body onto Candy Carpenter. Ivanna raises her fists high in victory. “I retired Liberty Lane! I am the greatest there is!”
- Liberty Lane’s final photo as a boxer in the Foxy Boxing League will be all over the papers tomorrow. A once legendary fighter, now tossed onto the heap of has-beens.
- Ivanna walks over and steps on her two defeated adversaries. She looks down at them, admiring her work.
- Then, Ivanna looks out toward a camera and points. “VANITY VALE! I’m coming for you and taking your championship belt next!”
