With a dominant performance,
World Boxing Federation (WBF)
Women’s World Middleweight
Champion Christina Hammer
remained undefeated and retained
her title for the second time
Friday night at the Brandenburg
Halle in Frankfurt, Germany.
Hammer, now 11-0 with seven wins
inside the distance, unanimously
outscored American Vashon Living
by scores of 100-90 twice
(Stefano Carrozza and Manfred
Kuechler) and 99-91 (Pawel
Kardyni).
The challengers record dropped
to 5-2 (1). Referee in charge
was Frank Michael Maass.
The 21-year-old world champion
was a level above her game nine
year older opponent, and
outboxed and outlanded her in
virtually every round.
Living made an honest attempt to
make an impression, and tried to
close the range to work on the
inside, but couldn’t find the
key to hurt or seriously
pressure Hammer.
In the end there was no question
who would be the winner, but the
fight was entertaining and drew
plenty of cheers from the more
than 3000 spectators in
attendance. Hammer’s WBO World
title was also on the line in
the fight promoted by SES Boxing
and televised throughout Germany
on Sport1. |
