(NOV 20) Last night in Anacortes, at the Northern Lights Casino,
Washington, Tricia Turton cruised to an eight round unanimous decision
win over Lisa Holweyne. Scores were 79-73; 79-73; and 80-72. Turton, in
only her sixth professional fight is still rough around the edges.
She left herself open
up the middle, but Holewyne simply could not let her hands go to take
advantage of that flaw. Turton was the aggressor through the fight,
easily controlling the action. Turton's big punch was a right hook,
those that landed knocked Holewyne back a bit, but Turton was probably
most effective simply sticking a jab in Holewyne's face, keeping her
from getting too close.
Holewyne still has some
power in her punches, and she threw some wicked uppercuts that just
missed Turton's chin. Turton moved to 6-0 with the win; Holewyne is now
21-18-2. Lisa talked about the possibility of one more fight in
her home town, Austin, so her family could see her fight, then retiring
from the sport.
