"iFight Shelby Marx" - Official Synopsis
It’s the battle of teen sensations when reigning online queen Carly Shay squares off against teen fighting champion Shelby Marx in the iCarly special, entitled “iFight Shelby Marx.” After Carly jokingly challenges the champ to a fight during an iCarly webcast, Shelby thinks it would be a promotional win-win for both girls to participate in a mixed-martial arts exhibition, plus the money raised would go to charity. However, when Carly accidentally pushes Shelby’s grandmother at a press conference, Shelby is ready to throw off the gloves and knock out her opponent for real. As Carly tries to find a way to soothe Shelby’s anger so as not to be pummeled by her golden gloves, the gang’s nemesis Nevel has his own nefarious plans for the main event.
