(JUNE 24) During a 19-year
professional career as a prize fighter, Chevelle Hallback has
accumulated a record of 30 wins, 8 losses, 2 draws.
In her trajectory, Chevelle captured five World Boxing
Championships (WIBF Featherweight title, IBA Super Featherweight
title, WIBA Super Featherweight title, IFBA Lightweight title,
WBF Welterweight title, and the history-first WBAN belt,
respectively), and at months shy of her 45th birthday, Chevelle
is eager to fight any of the top fighters in the Super
Lightweight and Welterweight divisions.
Chevelle has fought the likes of; International Women's Boxing
Hall of Fame inductees Bonnie Canino, Laura Serrano, Diedre
Gogarty, and Jeannine Garside, as well as, Melissa Hernandez,
Cecilia Braekhus, Holly Holm, Myriam Lamare, Belinda Laracuentes,
Melissa Del Valle, Fujin Raika, Layla McCarter, Alicia Ashley,
just to name some.
Chevelle Hallback told WBAN; "Many people thought that I retired
and/or that I was done (Chevelle giggles), but I'm far from
hanging up my gloves.
For years I've dreamed of fighting on HBO. Again, many said that
will "never happen" but I'm not letting that deter me from
seeking that opportunity. For now, my focus is on getting
fights," Chevelle said.
When asked which fighters she would love to compete with and
why, Chevelle responded;
"It really doesn't matter as long as I'm fighting anyone at 140
to 147 pounds. I'm not one to call people out but there are some
potential match ups I would love to be a part of and I have a
list of interesting fighters I can see myself fighting against.
Let me get it (slight pause), ok, here are some of the best
fighters out there, Erica Farias, Klara Svensson, Alejandra
Oliveras, Mikaela Lauren, Fernanda Alegre, Svetlana Kulakova,
Ornella Domini, Ivana Habazin. All of these female fighters are
at the top of their game in the 140 and 147 pound divisions. And
of course, a rematch against Cecilia. Now that would be an Epic
rematch here in the U.S.," Chevelle concluded.
Hallback went on to say that she's never let up on the dream of
fighting on HBO. She hopes to be part of that breakthrough. She
also mentioned that she's waiting on a call to fight any of the
above mentioned fighters.
