Albuquerque favorite Holm (21-1-2, 6 KOs), recognized
as the No. 1 welterweight in the world, takes
on the world’s No. 1 middleweight, Detroit
icon Sanders (25-0, 8 KOs), in the 10 round
main event for the vacant International Female
Boxers Association (IFBA) junior middleweight
title.
“Holly and Mary Jo are fighting for the
right to be called the top pound-for-pound female
fighter in the world today,” promoter
Lenny Fresquez said. “This show is the
all-time best ever for female boxing with five
No. 1 fighters, based on independent rating
groups, starting with Holly and Mary Jo, along
with the No. 1 featherweight (Jeannine Garside),
junior lightweight (Chevelle Hallback, and strawweight
(Careno Moreno). Add a pair of No. 2 rated fighters
(flyweight Eillen Olszewski) and (junior flyweight
Hollie Dunaway), plus a No. 3 (junior flyweight
Wendy Rodriguez); ‘Finally’ is featuring
eight fighters - all rated among the world’s
top 3 - in four world title fights shown worldwide
on pay-per-view.”
The most punishing, action-packed fight could
turn out to be the 10-round co-feature for the
IFBA lightweight title between WIBA & IBA
junior lightweight title-holder Chevelle “Fists
of Steel” Hallback (26-5-2, 11 KOs), fighting
out of Tampa (FL), and WIBA featherweight champion
