2008 - Civic Hall, in Wolverhampton, West
Midlands, England
In the large modern hall in the centre of
this industrial town, local promoters P.J.
Rowson and Errol Johnson staged an 8 bout
Championship Tournament before a well
behaved, but enthusiastic audience of 800
patrons. In the second bout of the evening,
there was a special female International
featherweight rematch scheduled for six
rounds, between Wolverhampton’ Lyndsey
Scragg, 128¾, a 28 year old firefighter,
and Yarkor Chavez Annan, 128, a 25
year old hairdresser from Accra, Ghana.
When they last fought in a four round bout,
at the Town Hall, in Dudley, England, on 28th
June 2007, Scragg won on points. This
was an attractive contest of lively movement
with both girls throwing good punches at
times. Nearing the end of the first
round, Scragg knocked Annan down for a
count of eight. However she was unable to
repeat this. The fight settled into a series
of powerful exchanges with Scragg being the
aggressor and dominating the play. A
neat purposeful fighter she clearly had
mastery of her opponent – a fact which
culminated in the closing seconds [1:25] of
the final round when the referee stopped the
fight in her favour - ruling that
Annan was no longer able to defend herself.
Scragg moved to 4-0-0 (3K0), and Annan drops
to 7-4-1 (3KO). ©Copyright John E.G.Wilson

2008 - Roseland Ballroom, New York City, New
York
Eileen Olszewski, 110
½,
fighting in her present hometown, won the
WIBA flyweight title with a ten round
majority decision over Elena Reid,
111, of Las Vegas at the Roseland Ballroom,
minutes from Broadway, in New York City on
the under-card of a boxing program promoted
by Cedric Kushner's Gotham Boxing and Steve
Bash's Bash Boxing. The scorecards read:
95-95, 98-92 (2x) and in the view of the
partisan crowd and, probably, a substantial
portion of those fans at Roseland with no
rooting interest, the two judges, who had
Olszewski the clear winner, had a much
better view of the bout than the lone
dissenting arbiter. Olszewski
controlled the early rounds with her
straight up, come forward style. Reid made a
valiant attempt at salvaging her title in
the middle rounds with effective counter
punching to the body. But the new champion
clinched the decision by landing the bigger
punches more effectively and more often in
the last three rounds.

February 23, 2008 - Aachen, Germany
The preliminary program of a small but
successful boxing event that took place in
the "Josefshaus", a church hall in Aachen,
Germany, showed an outstanding female boxing
match. Junior middleweight Jessica
Balogun was up against Manon Rohrbach.
Both have so far boxed successfully and well
as amateurs and now as pro boxers, as they
both made their pro debut this night.
In the end, Balogun won the four round fight
by points due to her astonishing reflexes
and amazingly fast hands. by Ewe Betker
