(JUNE 22) New York, NY --
Raquel Miller still remains undefeated after winning last night
with a six-round unanimous decision over Szilvia Szabados in a
middleweight bout at the Melrose Ballroom in Queens, New York.
Miller stunned and hurt Szabados
throughout the six rounds of boxing. Miller, who was making her
New York City debut showed her versatility by featuring a
diverse arsenal of punches with both hands.
Miller handled the former world-title challenger with ease as
she won by shutout scores of 60-54 on all cards.
Miller wore a ring outfit that paid homage to the movie Black
Panther.
The 2012 United States Olympic Alternate, Miller continued her
dominance as a professional as her record soared to 6-0.
"I enjoyed myself in there last
night and it felt good to be back in action," said Miller. "I
felt strong, and I felt like that I had a solid performance. My
opponent was tough and I was happy to get the rounds in.
Fighting under the DiBella Entertainment banner is very special,
and I appreciated being warmly embraced by Lou DiBella himself!"
"I decided to come out as the leader of the Wakanda tribe in the
movie Black Panther, Dora Milaje. I was accented in gold because
I felt they represent the new age women warriors like myself. We
are fierce, strong and not afraid to go to war. I love to trail
blaze, and set the bar high. I'm sure we can expect to see other
women coming out and joining the Wakanda tribe and I'm happy to
be the leader of that movement. "
Said Split-T Management CEO, David McWater, "After being off for
8 months, I was more than happy with her performance. Going in,
I wanted to see how she performed with Szilvia Szabados as
compared to how Claressa Shields performed and Raquel definitely
looked better."
