continued and the boxing fans loved it. Freeda was definitely a draw and
favorite tonight as the crowd called out her name during the fight. In
round three, Freeda threw some nice combinations, but did not
seem to faze Rodriguez. Freeda landed two big rights, and Murdock had her
winning this round. In the fourth
