Past Fight report of Moorehead]
WBAN had received a press release on
September 17, 2007, just prior to McGee’s fight with
Moorehead.
In that Press Release it stated the following: "The co-main
event features the region's most popular fighter and #5 rated WBC
female phenom "Merciless" Mary McGee (10-0, 5 KOs)."
McGee is amazingly described as a “Female Phenon”, ranked #5 with
the WBC, and fighting the co-main on this card----But nowhere in the
press
release is a mention as to WHO she is fighting.
On September 18, 2007---just three days before her fight, WBAN
emailed the person who had sent the release, asking them a very
straight forward question, of who was McGee fighting.
They responded to my email on September 19, 2007, now just two days
before the fight, and said the following: “Our Matchmaker has not
made us aware who he has. I will forward it to you once it is made
available. Thank you!”
Guess what folks…Never got that email with the name of McGee's
opponent. By the way...that is a DOUBLE CHUCKLE for
McGee vs. Moorehead---This was a REMATCH for the two.

fight. (WBC
does not have her ranked, but WBA has her
ranked #6--we have absolutely no idea how
McGee could possibly be ranked with any
organization at this time).
