(JUNE 9) In an interview that
currently appears on You Tube, IFBA and WIBA Super Bantamweight
World Champion Lisa “Bad News” Brown (16-3-3, 5Ko’s) called out the
opponent who she’s hoping to fight in a unified title defence on
August 7th, at the Resch Centre in Green Bay, Wisconsin!.
The
fighter Brown would like to fight is the current reigning IFBA
Featherweight Champion, Kelsey “Road Warrior” Jeffries (41-9-1,
4Ko’s) of Gilroy, California, USA.
Team Brown said, “Lisa only wants to fight the very best boxers in
the world!” and has put the word out to all female boxers at 122
lbs!
Team Brown also made it clear that they are definitely still looking
for a fight with Marcela Acuna to unify all of the Super
Bantamweight Women’s World Titles. Lisa’s husband and trainer Errol
Brown is quoted as saying, “Lisa Brown will fight Acuna anywhere,
but we would love to see Acuna come out of Argentina and fight Lisa
in Canada!”
Errol also stated that a fight on neutral grounds in the
USA would also be fair to both boxers, and challenged Marcela Acuna
by saying, “Come and fight Lisa Brown outside of Argentina, and
let’s see who the Real Super Bantamweight Champ is!”
With that being
said, though a possible Women’s unification fight for the WBC, WBA, IFBA and WIBA Super Bantamweight Titles may also be in the works; it
is definitely Kelsey Jeffries that Team Brown currently has their
sights set on!

WBAN's Note: This would be
a very good and solid matchup. Both Brown and Jeffries are
warriors in the sport.
There are many aspects in making a world championship fight, and
hopefully we will see this fight on a card where terms are
agreed upon.
