(DEC 15) On Saturday, December
12th, at the Auditorio Blackberry, Mexico City, Distrito
Federal, Mexico, there were two female bouts featured on the
card. There were eight bouts on the card. BOTH female
bouts were televised on TELEVISA.
In the first bout, in what
was considered a five-star bout with not only Boxrec but WBAN,
Jessica "Kika" Chavez, 111.5, of Mexico City, fought to a ninth
round stoppage of Italy's southpaw, Simona "Romagna Queen"
Galassi, 111.5.
Throughout the bout, Chavez the
much shorter, but quicker and body puncher, won rounds 1, 2, 3,
5, 6, and eight, with a 10-10, in the seventh round, and the
fight being stopped in the ninth due to an accidental headbutt
that left Galassi with a open cut over her eye, that was about
an inch or so split open. She was obviously disappointed
with the bout being stopped by the ref, with only about three or
so minutes to the end of the bout. In this bout, Chavez
was defending her WBC flyweight title. The bout was ruled
a "TD" at 45 seconds of the ninth round.

4-0 (3KO) record, making her pro debut earlier this year and fighting
regularly.
