May 24, 2007 - Albuquerque, New
Mexico, and televised on ESPN2 “Wednesday Night Fights” Holly Holm, 139, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, won a 10-round unanimous decision over Chevelle Hallback, 137½. The two were fighting for the IFBA junior welterweight world title. Final judges scores were 100-90, 100-90, and 98-92. Also present at this event, was undefeated and multi-world champion Mary Jo Sanders. Sanders spoke with commentators about a potential Sanders-Holm fight. This could easily be one of the big fights for women's boxing at this time. Sanders was well-poised, with the ultimate of class that she brings to the sport, and she is a great representative, as Holm and Hallback are for women's boxing. After the Holm-Hallback bout, Sanders and Holm spoke about fighting each other in the near future. On the undercard, Clare de la Torre, 126½, won by TKO when her opponent Ashella Moody, 128, of Raleigh, North Carolina, did not come out for the second round. Photos by Mary Ann Owen |
