Frankie J.- I’m here backstage with Athena. Athena, you have requested this interview; I would’ve talked to you after your match with Gemma, but you bolted out of the ring. What would you like to say?
Athena- I just want to say, to all of my fans around the world and most of all, in Greece, I am so sorry I let you all down. (sobbing) I can’t believe this… I’m soooo sorry.
Frankie- You were one, if not the most, confident fighter in that house. This is your first loss… how do you feel?
Athena- I feel terrible, Frankie… I completely underestimated the ferocity of Gemma Rox. She’s not a fighter; she’s a freak and people like that have no business competing in the cage we fight in. People like Gemma Rox should be in cages with kids throwing peanuts at her. She’s an animal and… and… and she’s NUTS!!
Frankie- (sarcastically) But she beat you.
Athena- I did not realize that I was in the ring with a sado-masochistic psychopath. Gemma Rox has a mental problem and she should be in a padded cell and never allowed to fight again. I am still the best and next time, I will be ready for Gemma Rox; she’s an animal; I will be the hunter and I will get her back because I am the best and when the best fall, the best get back up and she’s not the best so when I put her down, she won’t get back up because she’s an animal.
Frankie- Thank you Athena. Geez, I can’t wait ‘til Kimberly Chaucer gets here so she can share some of the interview duties with me.
“Epic” by Faith No More and out comes “The Cure” Katora Sanchez. The 5’3” 135 lb Katora has long curly black hair, blue eyes, smooth brown skin and a round face with an hourglass figure. She is dressed in her usual white martial arts gi with one of her five black belts tied around her waist and she is barefoot as she walks to the ring with a look of determination on her beautiful Cuban face. Some people would be thrown by the music taste, but when Katora came to the US as a child, she fell in love with all sorts of music; she plays the saxophone, and she personally picked this song to come out to. Katora gets in the ring and the fans cheer loudly for her.
The familiar piano intro of Tupac Shakur’s “No More Pain” starts as the lights go down, and when the bass line hits, out walks “The Nightmare” Allison Payne. The 5’8” 150 lb shoulder length curly redheaded, hazel eyed, biracial (White father; Black mother) Halle Berry looking Allison is in a black robe with blood red trim; the hood is pulled over her head, but you can see the angry expression on her mouth, as usual and she seems to be bobbing her head as she walks to the cage. When she gets in the cage, she rolls her shoulders and the robe falls off to reveal a blood red sports bra covering her firm perfect breasts and below her firm smooth stomach and somewhat large oval shaped slightly in sticking navel are black shorts with “Nightmare” in a bleeding lettering of blood red on the waistband and black boots with blood drop designs coming down from the top. Katora is staring at Allison and Allison is staring back; Katora looks very calm, but seems like she’s bouncing from side to side and ready to go while Cutter whispers something in Allison’s ear as the ref goes over the instructions. The two fighters touch grappling gloves, back up, and the bell rings.
Katora comes charging out with her arms high and immediately throws a front kick that Allison avoids, but Katora steps in and fires a combination of punches to Allison’s ribs as the taller girl raises her arms and smiles. Katora gets a really good hook right on Allison’s waistband and Allison bends slightly and backs up. Katora continues to fire punches in bunches as Allison seems comfortable just backing against the cage wall and covering up. Katora really is hammering Allison’s ribs, but Allison breaks out and lands a knee to Kat’s solar plexus, widening Kat’s eyes with an “Umph!” and the Cuban fighter takes a step back. Allison’s jab hits Kat’s arms and Allison forces Kat back by slamming a hard right hand into her raised arms. Katora’s eyes show that she’s surprised by Allison’s strength, but Kat nails Allison with a leg kick that smacks against the taller girl’s thigh. Katora is circling and she and Allison are locking eyes as Katora fires a body kick, but Allison catches her leg and Kat violently pulls it back, but she ends up spinning herself off balance and Allison rushes in. Katora is barely able to pull her head out of the lead uppercut Allison throws but stumbles back from a right hand just below her armpit and goes all the way against the opposite cage wall. Allison grabs Kat in a muay thai clinch and ramming knees into Katora’s lowered arms.
Katora- Ahhh!!
Katora’s left wrist took a direct hit from a knee and she shakes it, then fires it into Allison’s jaw, turning the bigger girl’s head, but while Allison misses with a left hook, she lands a short right hand that hits Katora’s fat left cheek and buckles her enough for Allison to step hard on her right foot, wrap her arms around Kat’s shoulder, and judo throw her down. Katora went three rounds with submission and takedown expert, Misty Storm, who is also in Allison’s camp, and didn’t get taken down, but already, Allison has succeeded in taking the smaller girl down and starts ramming hard short right hands into Kat’s left side. Katora is trying to guard herself by laying on her right side, but Allison hooks Kat’s left arm with her right arm and uses her legs to entangle Kat’s, then she starts hitting Kat in the face with repeated left hands and when Katora brings her right arm up to guard against it, Allison hurts her with a shot deep into her stomach.
Katora- Aye!!
Allison sees Katora’s eyes close and feels her softness and yanks the gi belt lower and starts throwing lefts into Katora’s stomach. She gets in five hard shots before she’s able to roll Katora on her back.
Katora- Ooh!! Aye!! Oooooooh!!! Ougghhh!!! Oooooh!!!
Katora is breathing heavily and Allison has Kat’s right arm isolated between her legs, considering a crucifix; Allison fires a hard head butt into Kat’s face and sees a trickle of blood before firing a right hand deep into Kat’s belly, right on her vertical slit navel, which is peaking out from the open robe.
Katora- AYE!!!
Allison hears an exhale from Katora and she switches to mount position and starts raining punches down on Katora, but after taking three vicious shots to her face, Katora starts to stir and violently try to get up. Katora isn’t known as a bleeder, but now, her forehead and nose are busted open and the blood is suddenly on Allison’s fists and running pretty badly. Allison switches to an armbar, but Katora’s slippery now and she pulls free and scrambles to get to her feet. The blood is in her hair and on her face and her mouth is open and her heart is pumping as she looks at Allison, who gets up and starts to stalk her. Katora rages forward with a body kick that Allison sidesteps, a left hook that misses and a right cross that misses as Allison throws a right hand into Kat’s jaw and the shorter fighter stumbles and goes down on her butt.
Katora- Unnnhhhh!!!!
As Katora starts to get up, Allison grabs her by the sides of her head and starts driving those knees into Katora’s sides, turning her body as Kat’s arms can’t cover everything. Katora backs against the wall and covers her face, and Allison hits her with two left hooks to her liver and with a “oooosh” sound, Katora goes to a squat from the shots, but pops up, taking a jab to her face that snaps her head and body back, causing her to hit the back of her head on the cage wall. Katora fires a spinning head kick out of nowhere that makes Allison take a step back, but Allison rushes in and Katora rams a knee to the side of the taller girl’s head.
Allison- Unnhh!!
Allison covers her head momentarily as a sneering Katora fires uppercuts to her face and two of them snap Allison’s head up, but Allison stands and fires a left hook right cross that hit Kat in the face and knock her down again; this time, she’s on her back near the cage wall and raises her legs as Allison stands over her. Allison knows Katora can fire kicks from on her back but grabs one of Kat’s legs and wraps it with her own, trying to turn Kat over for a heel hook. Allison has become known for her punching and kicking power since getting famous, but her background, as she’ll tell you, is in submissions. Katora gets on her stomach to try and yank herself free, but Allison bends the leg back and grabs Kat under her chin with both arms in a modified STF. Allison shows flexibility not too many outside of her camp knows she has by maintaining the leglock with one leg while using her other leg to knee Kat in her right side, damaging her liver even more while now pulling Kat’s neck towards her, which would be to Kat’s right. Katora does a push up and is able to use her strong legs to power out of the leg hold, so Allison switches up and locks on a simple choke around Katora’s neck, but the smaller scrapper gets to her knees and shoves forward, pushing Allison off of her and Kat quickly gets to her feet, but misses a right hand as Allison turns around, sees it coming, and ducks out of the way.
Katora is still bouncing and despite the blood loss, she comes right at Allison with a hard kick that catches Allison just below her right breast, then, as Allison throws a right hand, Kat steps in and lands a right cross of her own to Allison’s navel.
Allison- OUGH!!
Allison seems to lower her arms and look at Katora will pain in her eyes and Katora cracks her with a left hook to her jaw and a right hand to her nose. Kat looks for a muay thai clinch of her own, but Allison holds her around her waist belly to belly and spins her, then rams her back into the cage wall.
Kat- Uhh!!
Kat knees Allison in her left thigh three times and lands another left to Allison’s liver, making Allison step back and raise her arms. Katora jabs the arms twice, then throws a right hand into Alley’s stomach again.
Allison- Omph!! Ohhh…
Allison sneers at Katora, who responds with a winging right and a hooking left to Allison’s head and circles off the cage wall as Allison sneers and nods at the shorter girl, then shoots in, gets her arms around Kat’s waist as Katora tries to elbow her to the back of her neck, lifts Kat up, carries her to center cage, and slams her down hard.
Kat- Ahhhh!!!
Kat starts bucking hard, trying to get Allison off of her and because she’s so slippery from her own blood, she is able to pull free, leaving Allison with the now pink gi jacket, turned pink from white by Katora’s blood. A shot is shown of Gemma Rox and Hood, who are sitting just outside of one of the ramps where the fans can‘t see them, but they both are drinking beers, so no real facial expressions could be determined. Katora has on a white tank top underneath that’s a bit short, but she takes time to pull her gi pants up so that only a small bit of her light brown stomach is showing and it immediately is hit with a hard jab from Allison.
Kat- Aye!!!
Kat takes another jab to the stomach and almost goes down, before Allison lands a hard left hook to the smaller girl’s liver
Kat- AUGGHHH!!!! Ohhhh….
Kat is still circling as Allison is stalking her, but every time Kat gets ready to spring forward, she eats a jab to her face or to her stomach. Katora is used to being the aggressive one and pushing the fight, but right now, she’s looking for opening and trying to get her wind back, but taking shot after shot when she prepares to attack and two jabs and a right hand to her jaw stagger her into the cage wall. Katora’s face shows pure disappointment when she misses a left hook and a side kick. Allison lands a right hand to Kat’s navel and Kat lets out an “OOOOOOOH!!!” doubles over and grabs Allison’s arm, but Allison slings her around and lands several short left hooks to Katora’s face and as Kat lets go and backs up, Allison hit’s a very hard roundhouse to Kat’s left side, her foot hooking around and hitting Kat’s kidney. Kat is backed near the cage wall and fires a left hook that misses and a front kick that Allison sidesteps. Then Allison throws an overhand right that is so fast, it doesn’t even look like it hurts, but it makes a “TWACK!!!” sound as it hits Katora’s chin… Katora’s body goes limp instantly and she falls forward, completely unconscious as Allison moves and lets her land face first. Allison raises her fists angrily.
Allison- FUCK YEAH!!!! OHHHH FUCK YEAH!!! THAT’S HOW YOU GET KNOCKED THE FUCK OUT!!! STRAIGHT FUCKING WARRIORS ALL DAY LONG!!!
Frankie J. enters the ring as Cutter holds Allison and she sheds a few tears, telling him, “That was for you.” Katora is sitting on a stool and is given a bucket as she vomits and sips from a bottle of water.
Frankie- Allison, congratulations on the win. I know it's been tough with your brother's death and having to fight a few days after his funeral.
Allison- I dedicated this match to him. I wish... I wish I could've been a better sister; I wish I knew him longer... I wish...
Allison hugs Cutter and wipes the tears from her eyes.
Allison- Okay... the fight. Man, that girl was tough! But we knew coming in that Katora wasn’t going to be an easy fight. She’s a warrior and she’s not afraid of anything and that’s why we fought her. She’s a real person and she’s got all that heart in that short body.
F- Were you hurt at any points in the fight? She seemed to land some pretty good shots.
Allison- She cracked me, but I knew she would. There are a lot of things I could’ve done to end the fight earlier. I didn’t lock in my mounts; I got lazy with my ground work and I should’ve thrown more punches because we knew she would want to brawl, despite my reach and height advantages over her. She got me with a right hand to my stomach and I had to step back and get my breath. She was everything we thought she’d be and I respect her so much for having the guts to step into the ring with me.
F- What’s next for you? I know you’ve been calling out Rachel and I asked your trainer and father General Cutter this question earlier… do you think the fight with Rachel will ever happen?
Allison- We were contacted a few days ago by her husband and he said that they were open to making the fight if we get passed tonight. I don’t know; I can’t concentrate on Rachel when I’ve got so many other opponents out there I can face. I’ll fight whoever is put in front of me and nobody is calling me out right now because everybody can see by what I did tonight that I am the real deal. We don’t put out those press releases for fun or to make fun of the list of people I’ve beaten. We want people to know that when you step in the ring or the cage with me, I will take you out.
F- Rachel gave that speech in New Orleans, ripping you for hiding behind your public relations teams and trainers and being a coward.
Allison- I don’t think I’m the one who everything is calling a coward. And I don’t have a public relations team. If people like me, good; if they don’t, I’ll still fight. I love my fans, but I don’t have a PR team. And for her calling me a coward, I can’t control what she thinks of me. I respect her and I love her and if she wants to fight me, we brought a contract here to Staples Center and if she beats Christina, I hope she’ll sign it and we can get it on. I don’t want to trade insults or talk about what would happen; I want to fight.
F- Thank you Allison.
Allison- I just want to thank everybody at Cutter’s Camp, Steve Dunn, Tasha, Shakena, DeSade, my father and trainer General Cutter, Misty Storm, Yvette Hood for her friendship, my fans, Siena Blaze for the opportunity, Rachel for inspiring me, and Katora for fighting me. I love all of y’all and we’re going home still undefeated, still undisputed baby!
F- Thank you Allison. Katora, this is your first loss with no dispute. How are you feeling?
Katora- What can I say? Well, she kicked my ass, you know? I feel really bad; I’m really disappointed in my performance, but I can’t say anything or take anything away from her performance tonight. She was the better fighter tonight; she took me apart and I never saw that right hand coming, man.
F- Did she fight the way you expected her to, or were you surprised by her desire to take you down?
Katora- I’ve got great takedown defense, but she was just too damn fast, you know? She hurt me every time she hit me and I’ve been hurt before, but I’m bleeding all over the place, man. I’m just really sad right now because I said I wasn’t going to just let her run through me and that’s what I feel like happened, you know? She beat me up and her body shots were killing me. I couldn’t even kick because my stomach was hurting so bad, man.
F- But she admits that you hurt her.
Katora- I didn’t win, man. It’s a fight; we’re gonna hurt each other, but the point is to win and I wasn’t coming in here to be another name on that list; I trained very hard for this and she kicked my ass. My pride feels like crap, man. Madre de Dios (Mother of God), man, I sucked bad tonight.
F- What’s next for you?
Katora- I think everyone wants to see me and Misty Storm go at it again (crowd cheers). I know I won that fight, but it was a hell of a fight and I’d love to fight some of the other girls. And I want to congratulate Gemma on winning the final and you know, she made that comment about Samantha and Sam is my girl, but that’s between those two. But I am probably gonna want my crack at Gemma at some point, so she better stay on her toes. Remember, I should’ve won that fight and if I had fought Gemma, I think I would’ve beaten her. Thank you, everyone for having me; I’m sorry I lost, but I’ll be back and for my students in Miami and New Orleans, heart of a champion and keep the fighting spirit always. See you guys next week… study your forms.
F- Thanks, Katora.
There’s a shot of 38 million dollar a year interview queen, Kimberly Chaucer arriving. The 5’6” 135 lb Asian Kimberly, with her long black hair, green eyes and perfect breasts and Kelly Hu looking figure, is dressed in a baby blue pants suit with a white blouse and blue heels with no heels. With her is her fat cameraman, Carl, who’s trying to keep up with the fast walking Kim.
Carl- We sure are late, Kim.
Kim- So fucking what? If anyone has a problem with it, I’ll just roundhouse kick any ass who gets out of line.
Carl- Where are we going anyway?
Kim- To the cage to issue the new Chaucer Challenge. I’m sick of these stupid wrestling, cage fighting, cat fighting bitches. They all walk around like their shit doesn’t stink and I’m ready to get some scoops and expose some frauds.
Carl- Okay, if you say so.
Kim- It’s not a matter of saying; it’s a matter of doing and I’m going to do it right now.
