Amelia's First Kickboxing match by Steve B   Amelia was in the locker room stretching and warming up for her first professional kick boxing match. She was wearing red muay thai boxer shorts, a white tank top with her boxing gloves on and barefoot. Her light blond hair and dark blue eyes were glowing under the bright light. She was still in awe that she was fighting the Women's World Kick boxing Champion, Kathy the destroyer on her first professional bout.    Amelia's primary occupation was modeling. She had worked for the best  modeling agencies in the world. Her beautiful blond hair and blue eyes and perfect body had been in magazines across the world. Many men work were amazed , when they found such a beautiful girl was a tae kwon do black belt.. Amelia had been practicing tae kwon do and competing in tournaments since her childhood. She had never lost a match. She felt they she really had never been challenged. She wanted to be able to test her skills to the full extent.     She decided to try professional kick boxing. She trained with male boxers so she could improve her hand techniques but she knew her strength was in her feet. In tae kwon do matches, her opponents felt like they had been hit by a sledge hammer when she kicked.     It was just pure luck that she was fighting the world champ on her first professional bout. The bout was supposed to be a world title match. The top contender against the world champ, but Mia the contender had suffered an injury and couldn't fight. The television slots had already been sold and someone had to fight and Amelia had been chosen to fight an exhibition match. The promoters didn't pick her because they thought she would be a tough competitor, but because of her super model status.    Amelia had watched the tapes on Kathy the destroyer. Kathy had a punch that could knock the head off a bull. Kathy had knocked out over 30 women with her upper cut rights, right crosses and amazing jabs. Her strength was in her boxing skills. Amelia knew she couldn't stand toe to toe and box with her. She had watched a lot of good kick boxers try and fail. She knew that her feet was the key.    Time to enter the ring!  Kathy the destroyer entered with her usual flamboyant style. Heavy metal music filled the arena as she came storming in, throwing devasting punches in the air. The crowd was roaring and chanting her name. "Kathy - Kathy" Amelia stayed in her corner, she was in full splits with her toes pulled back, with a calm composure. Kathy was jumping around the ring and shouting taunts at Amelia. Other than rolling her beautiful eyes and smiling, Amelia gave no response.   Round one!  Kathy came charging in throwing hard punches at Amelia. With her arms up high, Amelia absorbed the punches, but was amazed how hard they landed. Kathy made a few weak kicks and kept charging in and pounding Amelia's arms. Amelia danced on the balls of her feet, careful to keep her distance, she got her distance and timing just right to pound a front kick to Kathy's front leg. Amelia's front leg kicks were just as hard as most peoples back leg kicks. The kick stopped Kathy in her tracks. Every time Kathy would advance, Amelia would pound her left foot into Kathy's leg. She always made sure to kick in the same spot. Kathy's leg was starting to swell and bleed. Her leg was getting shaking. Amelia knew at that point the bout was hers. She just didn't know how long she wanted to punish Kathy. Last five seconds of round one, Amelia decides to let Kathy know how it feels to get kicked in the head. She fakes a low front kick, re chambers her foot to the side and snaps a roundhouse kick to Kathy's head. Kathy's eyes were glazed but Amelia let round one end. Amelia went back to her corner went back into a splits and wiggled her toes.     Round 2! Kathy regained some strength and charged in again. Amelia decided it was time to work the mid section. She faked a low kick which Kathy was waiting for and chambered her leg back and executed a side kick to the stomach. Kathy stopped in her tracks and was obviously hurt. Amelia backed up and danced around on the balls of her feet. Kathy gained a little stamina but every time moved in Amelia pounded her with a kick to the stomach. Amelia had hoped to make the bout last 3 rounds but decided "the destroyer" just couldn't take the punishment. Amelia decided it was time to introduce Kathy to her back foot. She moved some distance from the champ, raised her back foot off the ground spread her toes out preparing for the last kick. She charged in fired a few punches against Kathy to move her against the ropes and then fired a rib breaking side kick to her ribs. Kathy bounced into the ropes and came back to land into Amelia's spinning back kick which landed on Kathy's face. Kathy was out cold. The referee didn't bother to count. He knew the fight was over. Her face was a bloody mess. Amelia calmly walked back to her corner and went into the splits. Amelia was the winner by knock out but it was just an exhibition match so she wouldn't be declared the world champion, but she just gained the respect of the women's kick boxing community.
