Before I post the next round of my 1970s poll, here are the thoughts over my friend's Glamour Fights' contest
Loni Anderson vs Farrah Fawcett
With all respect to Charlie's Angels, Loni is no Goldie Hawn and Farrah doesn't stand a chance for a similar victory. Loni quickly smothers Farrah on the ground and pins her into submission for one of the most comfortable wins of the entire round.
Martine Beswick vs
Adrienne BarbeauSwamp conditions or not, Adrienne is much stronger then Martine and beating Pam Grier is only a small indication of that. Adrienne outmuscles her brunette rival and takes her down before rolling Martine on her stomach and sitting on her back. There's little that Martine can do after that and Adrienne buries her head in the swamp as Martine chokes out her submission.
Elke Sommer vs
Jill St. JohnThe German blonde surely tops the flexibility and perhaps even the wrestling skills departement but the problem is, Jill is much stronger which she showed by defeating the equally skillful as Elke, Raquel Welch. I don't think Elke has the core strenght to smother the redhead and cause her any more damage with some nasty tricks. Instead, I believe Jill punches the stuffing out of Elke and leaves her a battered mess on the floor. Bit of a long shot but Jill has emerged as the real spoiler between Ann Margaret and Elke for the overall title and I think she's on her way into a winning finish in the last three fights.
Sherry Jackson vs
Dian ParkinsonA short fight in prospect as Dian doesn't even lose a single of her high heels before kicking the brains out of Sherry, who would barely last a couple of minutes against Dian. The blonde would quickly outmuscle her and forced on the ground where she can jump on Sherry's chest like on a water bed and Sherry would have had enough quickly. Dian could well stand a victorious pose after the fight placing one of her heels on the brunette's battered body.
Linda Evans vs
Sybil DanningMore competitive fight on hand, but Sybil shold have little trouble with tossing Linda around. Generally, the future Dynasty star has been somewhat of an overachiever for me in this competition and would not handle the Austrian's blows and sharp nails en route getting torn apart. It would be interesting how would Sybil match with another Austrian blonde, Susan Denberg who is doing quite well in my 70s poll. Also it's worth noticing she had a catfight with Heather Thomas during one of Fall Guy episodes as well, so there's one experienced tough blonde out there! Linda's catfights with Joan Collins must play second fiddle especially considering Joan ends up way down the bottom in the 50s poll.
Luciana Paluzzi vs Diane McBain
Here is one woman who I think should have taken Linda's place among Top 10 and that's Luciana Paluzzi. Diane McBain has also done reasonably well probably thanks to some huge determination and spirit that enabled her to make amends for physical downsize. Anyway, once Luciana's nails starts messing up Diane's face, it's a done deal and the Italian just kicks the blonde into a bloody mess in a vicious display of fury. That's probabaly a bit harsh on Diane who doesn't really deserve such a rough treatment but Luciana would be the last person feeling any sympathy in this field, probably only matches by Pam Grier and Martine Beswick.
Tuesday Weld vs Nancy Kwan
Another innocent looking blonde, Tuesday Weld matches Diane McBain in my private rankings in terms of exceeding the expectations given the rather slender bodyshape. This time she challenges a much easier opponent then Diane, and quite frankly Nancy Kwan's judo techniques caused even less trouble then Diana Rigg in the 50s poll. Tuesday has won quite a few fights and is more then comfortable with her wrestling skills then earlier on. The fact she defeated Sharon Tate and Nancy got whooped by Britt Ekland whom I consider weaker then Tuesday and Sharon, makes this one an easy pick. Tuesday should outsmuscle Nancy and lay her flat on the ground before securing a win thanks to a grapevine pin.
Goldie Hawn vs
Suzanne SomersLooks like there is a quarter-combo happening in the schedule as both Goldie's and Suzanne's previous rivals met in this round before. Goldie has firmly emerged as everyone's punchbag, quite a bad achievement considering Sherry Jackson and Stefanie Powers also being on the very weak side. This fight won't last more then a couple of minutes and Suzanne doesn't even need any extra rest after her previous contest as she knocks out Goldie with some solid punches that send Goldie on her knees in no time.
