Diana Accera Vs Saori "Tiger" Takatsuki: Bring Your Tiger To Ring Day

"Tsk..." Diana took the woman's suggestion with somewhat competitive contempt. It was as if the Italian actually took time to catch her breath, Saori had won. A weird view point, but one that made sense in the mind of a woman who only ever sought after a fight.

Stepping forward, arms already up as the Italian began to somewhat sway, this time Diana wouldn't wait to feel out her foe before she'd try to land a hit on her. Throwing straight forward, using somewhat of the momentum from her quick pace into the woman, Diana would aim for a straight, simply, but no less powerful jab, straight into the woman's gut, in a somewhat petty attempt to try and render her equally breathless.

Saori noticed Diana was starting to look a bit uneven in her stance, probably starting to tire out. Saori's bravado kept her adrenaline high, but in the back of her mind she knew she too could only go on for so much longer. But that just meant it was time for the climax: no more defense or any stuff, just time to punch each other until one fell down.

Diana got the first blow in, slamming her fist into Saori's belly. "GPHHHHHHHHMM...!" the Japanese woman groaned as the wind was blasted out of her lungs, causing her to hunch over a bit. She didn't fall, however, using her willpower to stand her ground, Saori brought up a fist and threw a solid hook aimed at the Italian's face.

The two had mostly been exchanging blows after blows, with a brief moment of grappling shared between the two, a fact now showing itself as Diana's face was becoming increasingly sweatier.

Not the sort to rush ahead and think she had the battle won from delivering a hard punch to Saori's gut, her foe would soon counter, throwing somewhat of a powerful and quick uppercut. Had Diana rushed into the manoeuvre and added to it's momentum, it would of likely been over. But given her wary demeanour, the attack simply caused her to stumble backwards, before falling to a knee.

Both women a near mirror of the other, with neither conceding defeat or at this point even attempting to block one another's assault, the crowd would somewhat roar in approval. Whether each woman intended to, they were putting on a hell of a show.

Her fist connecting solidly with the Italian's face, Saori took a step back. Panting heavily, she tried to regain a bit more of her breath after that belly shot, while awaiting Diana to get back on her feet.

"C'mon Di, it's your turn! Gimme your best shot!" she roared, trying to keep herself psyched up and hopefully encouraging her foe a little bit too.

The two would rise at near the same time, the crowd finding the moment deserving of a somewhat moderate applause as neither woman seemed to want to go down until the other fully felt their wrath. Stepping forward with hands back up, Diana would smirk, certainly getting the fight she came for.

Opting to turn the riskiness of the match up somewhat, the big Italian would suddenly burst forward, in the attempt to leap high in the air, aiming to crash back down on Saori with forearm extended!

Saori's eyes widened as Diana suddenly sprung into the air, looking to come down right ontop of her. As terrible as an idea as it sounded, the Japanese woman stood her ground, simply bracing her body as the Italian's arm clotheslined her right off her feet.

Slamming down hard against the mat, Saori choked and gagged a bit as she held her neck, her windpipe having taken quite the hit. Writhing around on her back for the moment, she was going to need a lot longer than usual to recover from this...

To her somewhat luck, Saori had neither limb extended for a strike or arms out essentially ready to catch the woman. Diana couldn't help but throw the slyest of smiles that her risky manoeuvre managed to gain success. Landing next to her foe, Diana would shuffle somewhat, so that the two were side by side; the Italian on all fours, Saori on her back clutching her neck. With an idea to mind on her follow-up, Diana would quickly attempt it, aiming to quickly capitalise on her injured foe.

"Time to switch up!" She'd roar, before suddenly jumping in a way onto the woman, the two women almost appeared as lovers as Diana simply lay on the woman for a fraction of a second. Her 'switch-up' now becoming apparent as a change of tactics from strikes to submissions, the Italians' arms shot forward. She'd quickly try to hook them behind the neck of her foe, looking for a mounted front sleeper!

Before Saori could so much as catch her breath, Diana was already literally ontop of her. Still recovering from that hit, the Japanese woman couldn't put up much resistance as her foe locked in the sleeper, a rather dangerous hold for Saori considering her condition.

Choking as her oxygen was slowly being cut off, Saori quickly realized the futility of her situation and tapped the mat with her hand, trying to submit before she could get knocked out.

Diana pressed the woman's neck firmly, squeezing with all her might as per the norm. Saori's breathing would of been even more hindered by the fact the toned woman was pressing her figure on her near fully.

To her somewhat surprise, Diana's precise assaults finished with a simple but effective submission gained her a victory. Satisfied, she released quickly, bringing a hand to wipe a bead of sweat off her forehead. Dismantling soon after, she rose, hands shooting to her hips to support her posture as she fully caught her own breath.

Saori took in a deep gasp of relief as Diana let go, panting heavily as she tried to get the oxygen back in her lungs. Laying flat out on her back, her impressive chest heaving up and down, the Japanese woman still managed to crack a little bit of a smirk. "Ouuhhhh... Maybe... I shouldn't... Have just taken that hit... Ha..."

While it had ended in her loss, Saori was still pretty content, having enjoyed things quite a bit. For her winning or losing wasn't a big deal, ultimately she was just doing this for fun really. As her adrenaline died down and her body started to really feel the aching, she let out a small groan and continued to lie there on her back, hoping to rest and recover a bit before she would get up.
