Female boxing updates and latest boxing news...


Ana (The Hurricane) Julaton is back in the news.
Though I don't think she actually ever left.
At Rumble at Rama XI, on Saturday, March 27 at Casino Rama, Ana will be taking on Toronto's Lisa (Bad News) Brown.
Ana is 6-1-1, with 1 KO and Lisa is 16-4-3, with 5 KO's.
They will be facing each other for the vacant WBA Super Bantamweight world title.
So far (as I have pointed out here before) Ana has beaten Kelsey Jeffries for the vacant IBA female Junior Bantamweight title and Donna Biggers to claim the WBO 122-pound world crown.
Despite a ten year gap between the two fighters (Ana is 29 and Lisa is 39) everyone is expecting a close bout.
This is Ana's way of really making her way into the big time, and also her chance to hold three titles at the same time.

And the day before that, March 26th in Albuquerque, New Mexico at the Isleta Casino and Resort, Chevelle Hallback will be taking on Holly Holm for the WIBA's 140 pound world title.
Holly Holm was born on October 17th, 1981 and was born in Albuquerque, so she'll be fighting in her own home town.
Her record stands at 26 (7 KO's) - 1 - 3.
Chevelle Hallback was born September 3rd, 1971 in Plant City Florida, and has a boxing record of 27 (11 KO's) - 5 - 2.
She faced Holly once before on May 23rd, 2007 at the Tingley Coliseum in Albuquerque and lost, so this is Chevelle's chance for payback.

And in a follow up on the last post, Maureen “The Real Million Dollar Baby” Shea (13-2-0) didnt get to face Nydia “Da Phnominal” Feliciano (2-0-1) at the “St. Patty’s Day Brawl”.
Shea had to pull out due to an injury, and was replaced with national kickboxing champion Jennifer Han.
Though Jennnifer came in with a (0-1) record, she hung with Nydia through all six rounds, ending the match in a draw.
