(JAN 12)  Last night at the Alamodome, in San Antonio, Texas, in a co-main event there was an action-packed bout featuring a female bout with Alejandra "La Tigre" Jimenez vs. Franchon Crews-Dezurn in a ten-round world title bout with Crews-Dezurn defending her WBC and WBO Super Middleweight titles.  At the scales Jimenez who has dropped down to fighting as a super middleweight came in at 164.6, and Crews-Dezurn, 168.

According to reports on the internet with this bout, the bout wasted little time getting started, and that Crews-Dezurn had taken the fight to Jimenez, but that both were aggressively exchanging punches.   There was a distraction in the ninth round when Franchon's weave was starting to come out, where it had to be stopped to fix the situation.


Jimenez won the ten-rounder by a split decision with final judges scores of 93-97, 92-98, and 97-93, with Jimenez becoming the new WBC and WBO Super Middleweight champion. Jimenez remains undefeated with a 13-0-1 (9KO), and Crews-Dezurn is now 6-2-0 (2KO)

With the scores being close, with one judge seeing Crews-Dezurn as the winner---looks like a rematch could possibly be in the making in the near future.
