Clampitt Wins by Decision over
Drexel-Bell

By KEN CASTRO
October 2, 2004
 
  (OCT 2) BOSTON- Coming off an emotional loss on two fronts less than three months ago, Jamie "The Hurricane " Clampitt climbed into the ring to battle a determined Brenda "Tiger Lady" Bell Drexel last night in a matchup of Welterweights at the Bayside Expo Center.

Clampitt, the former IWBF and NABAW Light Welterweight Champion, faced Bell Drexel (#8 WIBF) in her first bout since losing to Jane Couch, in a raucous affair back in June. Clampitt moved to 14-3 (3KO) by taking a unanimous six round decision (59-55,59-55, 60-55) over Bell Drexel who dropped to 5-23-2 with the defeat.

Clampitt weighed in at 142, Drexel hit the scales at 151.

Getting back in the ring was a priority for Clampitt who carried a heavy heart in the Couch fight after losing her longtime mentor, friend and trainer, Tiny Ricci, less than a day before the skirmish.

"He (Ricci) was on my mind the whole time, " said Clampitt following the victory. "I have to adjust to life without him but I could definitely feel his presence in my corner throughout the fight. I felt that he was with me here tonight."

Bell Drexel proved to be a solid draw for Clampitt. After a mostly defensive posture by the two fighters, Drexel, of San Marcos, TX backed Clampitt up early in the second round, forcing her into the corner. Drexel went to the body but Clampitt worked her way out and utilized her jab for the remainder of the round.

"Everything I worked on in the gym I was able to take into the fight," said Clampitt who was visibly more aggressive in the fourth round. In that round, Clampitt fired a pair of overhand rights that scored while Bell Drexel briefly bounced off the ropes.

Clampitt stayed with the jab in the fifth, but Drexel who was eager to show that her record was not a true indicator of the ability that she brought north, kept coming at Clampitt. Late in the round, Clampitt tagged her opponent with a crisp overhand right.

"I felt pretty good, I was trying to be patient," said Clampitt. "A lot of times I found myself rushing in and trying to do too much too soon. I was hoping to wear her down in the first three rounds by working to the body. She had a lot of weight on me but I didn't feel that much snap on her punches."

In the final round both combatants found the center of the ring to their liking. Ahead on points Clampitt displayed a modicum of offense, preferring to fend off a late flurry by Bell Drexel.

"She did what she had to do in adapting to a much bigger opponent," said Clampitt's trainer Chuck Sullivan after the bout. "What she had to do was box and she did that beautifully."

The pair faced off three years ago when Clampitt was fighting out of Canada. At that time both were at 136 lb.

After the win Clampitt when offered up the though of having a rematch with Couch, was all for the notion, "We definitely want to get back and get that (rematch) done," she offered. "I know that her camp is all for it. She's going to see a different fighter next time. I won't have to deal with the loss that I felt last time; I'll be ready."
