(JUNE 24) Yesterday, WBAN ran a story on
"Snippets From Around the World in
the News", and we mentioned a "Snippet" of news that was
reported, that
Laura Serrano
of Mexico, (who was to have fought in Ignacio, Colorado) against
"Jackie Chávez or Jayla Ortiz" has learned that neither wishes to
fight her.
We invited
Team Chávez, Ortiz, or Serrano to contact WBAN to give more details about this snippet.
Team Serrano responded and added the following
about this story:
"The promoter from Sky Ute Casino in Ignacio, Colorado contacted
both Team Jackie Chavez and Team Jayla Ortiz regarding fighting
Laura Serrano on June 24th. Ortiz's team simply said "NO" they did
not want to fight Laura Serrano. Jackie Chavez's manager said that
Jackie had just returned to the gym and was not ready to fight as
yet. Other possible opponent's either were already scheduled
to fight or simply told the promoter that they did not want to fight
Serrano.A challenge has been issued to Jeri Sitzes to defend her
NABF title against Serrano at the earliest possible time. Butch
