round KO over Jayde Chafardon, 98 lbs. These “tiny” fighters showed
the crowd that being small doesn’t mean that they are not tough. Shaffer
and Chafardon immediately engaged in an exciting slugfest, until a
combination of hooks to the body by Shaffer caused Chafardon to crumble to
the canvas. Another exciting women’s bout, on the card featured
Joy "Seek & Destroy" Irvin who fought a tough fight against
Candace
Lett. This fight was considered one of the best fights of the night,
as both wanted the win and came to fight this night. Irvin and Lett fought
toe-to-toe throughout the fight, until the third round when Irvin scored a
big right hand that sent Lett to the canvas. The crowd was on their feet
for most of their fight. The referee called a halt to the bout before the
end of the third round. All these ladies showed that people do love
women's boxing and that there is a demand for more female boxing.
