Lots of great comments for this round which I'm very grateful for
Here's a brief rundown of Round 6:
Valerie Leon (34) vs
Joanna Lumley (37)Despite a slightly worse record, Joanna found her way to bounce back and knocked out Valerie Leon in a close fight much similar to most of the experts' opinion. This could well be a start of a rise up the rankings for the blonde and firmly get rid of the underachiever status.
Sonia Braga (33) vs
Jacqueline Bisset (37)Another close fight where Sonia Braga's Brazilian temper came undone against the old-fashioned European slugfest style of Jacqueline Bisset. It a fierce breast-mauling and face-slapping contest Sonia's strenght let her down and couldn't prevent the Englishwoman (Jacqueline is English despite a French sounding name
) of forcing her into submission.
Christie Brinkley (40) vs Pamela Tiffin (26)
Barbosa made a bold call of Christie losing for the first time but as it turned out Pamela got knocked off into the water and out of the fight by the overall leader instead. The margin of victory wasn't as big as might have been predicted as the blonde model probably took it easy with the soft Pamela and saved some energy for the more challenging rivals.
Cybill Shepherd (37) vs Agnetha Faltskog (31)
The experts were split on this one and despite a negative record Agnetha gave Cybill a good run for the money. After a lenghty back-and-forth rolling on the floor, Cybill managed to get the upper hand and use some strict wrestling techniques to pin the Swede into submission. Cybill remains undefeated but this fight was anything but a walk in the park for her.
Julie Ege (31) vs
Marta Kristen (35)Everyone picked this as a close fight and Julie looked confident of getting off the mark, but Marta's record proved no fake as she headlocked the Norwegian into submission after a lenghty fight. Julie is getting closer to her maiden win and has moved out of the last place thanks to votes difference but is still far from happy as she really thought Marta would go down here.
Catherine Bach (40) vs Ingrid Steeger (29)
Neither of the pundits hesitated in a continuous winning streak for Catherine but Ingrid managed to avoid a serious trashing and only escaped this fight with a bloody nose. Catherine sure enough blasted the blonde rival straight from the start but the German accepted the challenge and traded a few blows herself. However this proved to no avail as the Daisy Duke thumped Ingrid on her curvy ass by giving her a bloody nose and winning by a TKO.
Edina Ronay (29) vs
Susan Denberg (36)Core strenght was the name of the game and despite Edina's fiery approach and willpower she just couldn't handle Susan's punches and got knocked out in the end.
Realisticman seemed to have the most resembling view with mine on this fight.
Suzy Kendall (34) vs Anni-Frid Lyngstad (32)
Closest fight in this set fell the way of Suzy Kendall who therefore scored her maiden win of the competition. Three of the four experts predicted Suzy giving it all in what looked like her best chance for success in a while and Anni-Frid just unable to dominate the blonde model in a classic wrestling fight. As the redhead's strenght began to disappear, there was no coming back and the blonde rival just plain wore her out into a submission.
