Patroba Lihavi, winless now at 0-5-1, failed to make it six rounds with Conjestina Achieng, now 16-6-4 (8KO). Lihavi was stopped by TKO in the fourth round. The fight was scheduled for six rounds. This was a rematch for the two, with Lihavi being stopped in the third round by TKO by Achieng the first time around on April 13, 2008. A matchup as this fight that took place on Saturday, is probably one of the most uninspiring types of coverage that WBAN provides for the sport. One has to question on occasion...when in the world will these crazy mismatches stop playing a part in this sport. You have a person [Achieng] who fights for world title bouts, ranked #3 in the world with Boxrec, ranked #5 with WBAN, and then they turn around and fight some winless boxer [Lihavi], that is 0-4-1-----when they have already stopped the same boxer in a previous bout. In another women's bout, featherweight Agnes Adonga won a four-rounder by points over pro debuter Consolata Musanga. [Logged into master search]

August 29, 2009 - Radisson Hotel Columbia, South Carolina A disappointment was the much hyped undefeated local favorite woman boxer Angel Gladney vs. Nikita McCargo card, no fault due to Gladney. Gladney took a quick victory when McCargo refused to come out for the second round. McCargo didn�t appear hurt and apparently lacked the stomach to endure further pain from Gladney. Enquiring minds wonder if the Boxing Commission may withhold McCargo�s purse for lack of effort. In such a short bout it was impossible for this first time viewer of Gladney to really offer much insight as to her potential or skills. This match was perhaps the disappointment of the evening. Jake at Ringside reported the result.

Donatella Hutlin, Stockholm, Sweden, fell to 1-1, 1 KO when she battled a hard fought loss against Lucia Larcinese of Montreal Quebec, Canada now 2-4, 0 KO's. With only four rounds to work with it was clear from the onset that Larcinese was determined to make this fight hers. She did well to dictate the pace of the fight and landed the harder and more accurate shots. Hutlin struggled a bit to find her rhythm but was able to land some fairly decent punches---yet failed to deter her competitor. While Hutlin was able to maintain good form it appeared she was unable to execute her plan. Larcinese seemed confident, assertive and pressed the action in three of the four rounds. With toe-to-toe combat in all four rounds, it was Larcinese who emerged the victor with a unanimous decision. All three judges scored the fight 37-39. Full Story by Lori Steinhorst

August 6, 2009- Hilton Americas Hotel, in Houston, Texas Kimberly Connor (4-1-1, 2 KOs) of Little Rock, AR and Tiffany Junot (6-2-1, 4 KOs) of New Orleans, LA fought to a draw with judges� scores of 57-57 by Phillips, 57-56 for Junot by Bish, and 58-56 for Connor by Yeats. The referee was Robert Gonzales. It was a rather brutal bout with both fighters exchanging heavy punches and each staggering the other at times during the bout. Connor returned to Houston after defeating Crystal Choo Choo Delgado previously. Junot was the stronger fighter, but Connor had a significant height and reach advantage. Connor bled from the nose for the majority of the bout and Junot had multiple welts on her face including a knob on her forehead. Connor had a good opening round using her jab and landing 1-2's which Junot had trouble avoiding. Junot's power became evident when she buckled Connor's knees in the 2nd round. Connor came back strong midway thru the 3rd round and hurt Junot. The 4th round was good for both with Junot putting in good body work.The 5th round was dominating for Connor who landed clean shots and her reach advantage was huge. Both showed they wanted the win in the final round with Junot having a slight advantage to make the rounds even, three each, on my scorecard. Note: Judge Bish scored the 2nd round 10-8 in favor of Junot, which proved to be the difference maker in the scoring....Story by Michael Campbell
