(MAY 31)
On Saturday
night in the "Clash of the Champions" boxing card, and promoted
by Brisco Promotions in Association with Golden Girl Promotions,
they featured three women's bouts on the card.
The venue
for the boxing show was at the Active Sports Academy, in Stone
Mountain, Georgia.
In the main event in a six-rounder, Ljeoma "The Praise"
Euginine won an unanimous decision over Gwendolyn
"Stealth Bomber" O’Neill.
Terri Moss told WBAN, “Ijeoma won impressively having a shut
out on one judges card and one judge giving one round to
Gwendolyn and another giving Gwendolyn two rounds, but Ijeoma
dominated the whole fight having the cleaner and much more
powerful shots. Her jab and straight rights scored the most, but
she did score some heavy uppercuts on the inside. Gwen was very
game though but couldn't seem to get ahead if Ijeoma's height,
reach, and power.”
In another fight on that card, Jackie Breitenstein won a
four-round majority decision over Lacey Crawford scoring
40-36, 39-37, and one judge scoring 38-38. According to Moss,
“Jackie controlled the pace and rhythm of the fight boxing on
the outside as Lacey came forward with long jabs and overhand
rights. Lacey was cut over the left eye in the second round but
fought hard until the last bell. It was a good win for Jackie
against a tough opponent.”
In the last female bout on that card, Lisa Garland
stopped Natoya Ervin with a hook to the body in the third
round. Moss reported, “This fight was a rematch and it was
obvious that Natoya had come to reverse her previous loss to
Lisa. The fight was very busy with both fighters unloading bombs
throughout the fight. Lisa dominated every round though, and
punished Natoya through three rounds until the stoppage. “
”All three women's fights were very competitive. With Ijeoma's
win over Gwendolyn she has now defeated the #1 ranked and
current WIBF and GBU champion in the heavyweight division, in a
heavier division than she fought earlier, and in her first fight
after a two year layoff to give birth to her son. She went right
to the top on her first fight back proving that she is ready for
a championship comeback. It was very impressive. They have
already agreed to a championship fight in July or August”, added
Moss.
