November 10, 2007 - Silver Reef Casino - Ferndale, Washington -Tammie Johnson and Jana Simms went toe to toe again. In October Johnson won a four round unanimous decision. The result here would be the same. Too often in the fight Simms found herself out of position, thus she threw punches from awkward angles. That also meant Johnson had to adjust her attack. Had Johnson been able to step in and throw her jab straight up the middle at Simms, the fight might have been over soon. There were a number of times in each round when a Johnson left would catch Simms, and while she winced, Simms did not back away. In the third round it appeared that Johnson may have reaggravated a bruise on her right hand as she threw it less often. And when she did it was often a looping right, thus less effective than her earlier punches. Nonetheless, Johnson again shut Simms out. All judges scored the fight 40-36. Story- Photos by Mike Blair
