Friday night at the women’s boxing fights!
Okay so, ESPN Friday Night Fights, HBO, Showbox, NBC Sports, Fox Sports all seem to have forgotten that there are a heck of a lot of great women’s boxing bouts. For tonight’s “card” I’ll start with a title bout from last week’s USA Boxing Nationals and add in some golden oldies. Enjoy!
First up, our Gold Medal winner Claressa Shields battling Franchon Crews to take the USA Boxing 2014 Middleweight Title!
Next … Cecilia Braekhus (23-0, 7-KOs) vs. Oxandia Castillo (12-1-2, 9-KOs) from 8/9/2013. This was Braekhus’ last fight–she fights the great champion Myriam Lamare tomorrow night.
Here’s the weigh-in for what should be an awesome battle, tomorrow’s bout (Feb 1st) between Cecilia Braekhus and Myriam Lamare for the WBC, WBA & WBO Female Welterweight titles!
One of the greats! Ana Maria Torres (28-3-3, 16-KO) vs. Jackie Nava (23-4-3, 12-KOs) in their first battle on 4/11/2011 at the World Trade Center, Boca del Rio, Veracruz, Mexico. What a war!

I’m going to be honest with the television world. Women boxing should be on national television, because these women comes to fight, and they fight hard! I see these boxers can fight, and they could make plenty of money, and the bookies would be proud, and it could help younger generation of fighters. Can y’all please put women boxing on television.
Reggie! I’m with you! The Torres-Nava wars are as GREAT as any in boxing!
