Waco, TX (June 21, 2004) Laila Ali announced today that she would be
fighting on the up-coming Mike Tyson undercard July 30th in Kentucky, to be
televised
on Showtime. Apparently, it was also reported that Ali is "looking" for an
opponent. Well, Ann Wolfe is right in front of her.
Wolfe's management, RPM Boxing president, Brian Pardo, said, "once again
Laila 'Ali' McClain has ignored the obvious opponent for this fight". Being
billed as the "big name undercard star" Laila Ali appears to be missing the
best chance to make the biggest fight in women's boxing a reality.
"Unfortunately, Ali has again chosen her self interest over the sport and
over her own dignity. Now that Ann Wolfe is the IBA Light Heavyweight champ,
as well as holding world titles in three other weight classes, it would seem
that Laila would be anxious to prove she is a winner. Instead, she is
proving she is a coward. She is not worthy of the legacy her father
inadvertently bestowed upon her." Pardo said. "A name is only a name, a
championship has to be earned. Sooner or later, the milk run will run dry
for Laila McClain." Response
from Laila Ali and Johnny McClainCOMMENTS ABOUT
