(MAY 08) On June 18, 2005 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, there will be an all
women's boxing card at the Shaw Convention Centre. The promoters of the
event are Glen Carriere of KO Boxing and Gerry Gilroy of Independent
Jewelers and they are teaming with the California's Rock and Sock
Productions. This is the first all women's boxing card in Canadian history
and it will be covered in Canada and on pay per view as well as several
satellite superstations in the U.S. The card looks like this thus far:
1. Jelena Mrdjenovich (Edmonton) (11-1, 7 KO's) vs. TBA.
2. Amy Johnson (Edmonton) (4-0-1,1KO) vs. Olga "The Hurricane" Heron
(Toronto) (3-5,1KO).
3. Lisa "Bad News" Brown (Toronto) (10-1,4KO's) vs. Kelli Cofer (Willard
Ohio) (10-2-4, 3KO's).
4. Donna Logue (Edmonton) (0-0-1) vs. Aasa Sandell (Sweden) (2-0-1,1KO).
It is important to note that Amy Johnson was given the dubious honour by
WBAN of having the dirtiest match last year against Tonya Harding.
Don’t let Olga Heron's record fool you--she is much better than her record
might indicate. She has fought very tough opponents such as Lisa Brown
(World Champion) and Mrdjenovich (twice) in the past. This may be the
hottest match on the card! |
