the Scenes #26:
An excerpt of the MAN vs. WOMAN bout (After the bout took place),
featuring Loi Chow and Margaret McGregor. The event occurred on
October 9, 1999, Seattle, Washington. This post-fight conference took place
outside of the arena. Fox stood on a chair (shaky) to try
to shoot some footage of the two. The media came from all over
the world, with a lot of hype around this fight.

The date of the event was on November 16, 2001....Fox
Flew to Austin, Texas, and covered the first "Texas Shootout I" that
was an all women's card. It was televised on Fox Sports Net (three
of the fights.) This clip is an excerpt of the now
inactive, Fredia "The Cheetah" Gibbs. Gibbs, an exciting
and entertaining boxer, fought Sumya Anani. Unfortunately the
turnout was very poor, which was probably due to Austin, Texas,
having a tornado the night before and having flash floods.
During the weigh-in, the television crew, the fighters and
everyone else at the weigh-in were evacuated to the lowest level of
the hotel. The electricity was off for several hours. We were
told that we were in the eye of the storm.
