(SEPT 14) Tonight at the Shaw Conference Centre in
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, on the undercard of the Mrdjenovich/Hernandez
undercard Brandy Badry of Edmonton will be looking to move her
professional record to an even 2-2 when she squares off against
Jaime Ward, of Vancouver, BC, who is making her pro debut. The
fight is scheduled for four rounds in the Lightweight division.
Both of these ladies have fought each other in the amateurs
before. I had the opportunity to speak to Badry as she was in
the final preparations for her fight. According to Badry she
doesn’t see this fight lasting the scheduled four rounds.
Rick McLean: What are one or two of the most important things
that you have learned from your previous fights thus far?
Brandy Badry: To be prepared and train hard and the fight is
easy also to learn from every fight then apply the lessons to
the next one, steady progression.
RM: How was training camp for this fight against Ward?
BB: It was great I had my amateur coach Rick Jamerson back on
board full time who has known me the longest seen me grow and is
able to bring the very best out in me. The best hard sparring
with a 5 time world champion. Consistent training and motivated
with complete dedication and commitment I am very focus for this
fight. Also, amazing commitment from my strength and
conditioning coach who is always pushing me to be my best and
who's been with me for 7 years.
RM: What do you know about Ward?
BB: I have met Jaime coming up in the amateurs she's from
British Columbia and I fought her twice and beat her twice so
there's nothing I don't know about Jaime Ward.
RM: Do you feel pressure fighting in front of your fans or do
you feel that the pressure will be on Ward?
BB: All the pressure is on her it's her first pro fight and
she's fighting in front of my crowd and she is gonna get hit
harder then she's ever been hit in her life because there is no
way anybody she has fought in amateur hits harder then I do.
RM: How do you see this fight going?
BB: Kinda like a lumber jack cutting down a tree CHOP......
CHOP.......CHOP ..... Timmmmmmber!
RM: What are your short term plans for the rest of 2012 moving
into 2013?
BB: To stay active as I have been as of late and to get more
fights. Also to have great training camps, stay healthy and gain
some sponsorship partners to help with my professional career so
I can continue to do what I love, boxing.
