Letter
from Team Mrdjovenovich2 In the All-women's boxing card, "World Title Wave",
proved to be a very entertaining card. The event was telecast on Webcast, via Pay-Per-View, through
aringoftheirown.com.
The first fight of the
night featured Shelly Burton, 157.5, of Montana, vs.
Laura "Lady Ram"
Ramsey, 163.5, of Winter Haven, Florida. Burton was supposed to
fight Laetitia Robinson, but the Burton Team was notified just shortly
before boarding their aircraft, going to Edmonton, that Robinson dropped
off the card when she was not medically cleared, due to an injury to her
nose. They were told at that time that Burton would be
fighting Laura Ramsey. Ramsey taking the fight on a 72 hour
notice.
The Burton-Ramsey bout was set for 10 rounds and they were fighting for
the vacant WIBA Intercontinental Super Middleweight. The bout was
action-filled for the two, and both displayed toughness throughout the
fight. Burton won by a majority decision, with the judges scoring the
bout 97-93, 95-95, and 97-93. This was Ramsey's first loss as a pro.
The second fight of the night,
Chevelle “ Fists of Steel" Hallback, 129,
fought Belinda Laracuente, 129.5, for the WIBA Super Featherweight
title. There were no knockdowns during the bout. Final judges scores
were 98-92, 98-92, and 98-92. WBAN would like to see
Jelena Mrdjenovich
fight Chevelle Hallback for a world title, as this would definitely be
an exciting match for boxing fans to see. In the third fight of
the night it was “Bad News” for Lisa Brown, 120 3/4, when
Jeannine
"Heartless" Garside, 121 3/4, of Windsor, Canada, with only a 3-0
record, defeated her for the WIBA super-Bantamweight world title belt.
It was truly a battle of the southpaws. Garside surprised Brown with a
third round knockdown, where Brown took an eight-count. Garside, one of
the most exciting boxers to join the pro ranks is evidently following
the footsteps of her trainer, Margaret Sideroff. Sideroff won her first
world title in her fourth pro bout.in the main event,
Jelena Mrdjenovich, 128 3/4, of Edmonton,
Canada, fought Franchesca "The Chosen One" Alcanter, 129,
for the WBC/WIBF super featherweight title. Jelena effectively used her
jab and combinations, and 24 seconds of the sixth round, threw a left
hook to Alcanter's head. Alcanter fell to the canvas with the hard left,
and the fight was stopped by KO.
Rock and Sock Productions gets high marks for this very entertaining
card, and the webcast was very professionally done.
Rock & Sock Productions in association with KO Promotions and
Independent Jewelers put on this event.
There was two male non-title bouts on the undercard.

In the outdoor Amphitheatre, on an all-women's card, in "A Ring
of Their Own" boxing event, in the first fight of the night,
Shadina Pennybaker, had an outright war with
Daria Hill
of New Jersey, in six "tough" rounds of boxing. In what
could have been the best fight of the night (but as boxing fans
found out) all of the matches could have been classified as the best
fight of the night, Pennybaker won by a close unanimous decision. Both fighters not only displayed great skill, but very
good sportsmanship. Final judges scores 57-55, 56-55, 56-55. The second fight of the night was a six
rounder between Jeannine Garside, 130, of Windsor,
Canada and Rita Valentini, 125, of Hollywood, California.
The fight started out to be even, but it did not take long for
Garside to dominate the bout. Garside won by a fifth round
TKO, 1:25 seconds, Garside is a stellar example, why women
should try to learn their skills in the amateurs before turning pro.
She went to the body, throwing effective combinations, and as the
fight progressed she continued to put more pressure on Valentini.
In the third match, they had a special feature with
Elena "Baby Doll" Reid fighting a four-round exhibition against
Carina Moreno. Reid and Moreno were both warming up for
their world title bouts. Reid is fighting Regina Halmich in a
rematch on December 3, 2005, in Germany (WIBF belt), and Moreno will
be fighting Siriporn in Thailand (WBC belt). In a fourth
match, Laura "Lady Ram" Ramsey, 164, of Florida, fought
Sweden's Asa Sandell, 165. In the first round,
WBAN had Sandell ahead, as she was throwing crisp jabs, and had an
obvious height advantage. In the second round, Sandell began to have
a nose bleed, and had an accidental slip this round. In the sixth
round, Ramsey knocked Sandell to the canvas, with her taking an
eight count. Ramsey won the fight by a six-round split decision.
In the main event, Wendy Rodriguez, 105, won an eight-round unanimous
decision over Yvonne Caples, 105. The two mixed it up for eight
rounds, with Rodriguez out-pointing Caples. There were no
knockdowns in the bout. Arnie Rosenthal, and Ken Weiss, along
with matchmaker Wanda Bruce put on an excellent show, with great
matchups. Full

December 4, 2004 -
Emerald Queen Casino, in Tacoma, Washington
On the undercard,
Jeannine Garside, 122.5, of Windsor, Canada,
won her pro debut when she defeated
California's Heather Percival, 119, now 4-1-0 (0KO)
with a unanimous decision in a
four round bout. Both Garside and Percival formerly come from the
amateurs. Margaret Sidoroff wrote the following, "Jeannine's next
bout is scheduled for next weekend in New York against
Hagar Shmoulefeld of
Israel. Hagar is a veteran of the professional ring and has fought 10 round
title bouts and will be conditioned to fight many rounds. This should prove
to be a great test for Garside. " Photographer, Mike Blair, who
was ringside at the event, told WBAN, "The fight was one of the best of the
night. Garside was quicker, stronger and simply too tough for Percival.
Percival fought pretty well, but she just could not find a way to slow
Garside." |
