Delfine Persoon

Nah, if you don't follow it there is really no point. :yep

I've been making fighter profile threads for years. (http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=242850)

I think before this one the last woman I found worthy of a thread was Braekhus herself.

So I've got the p4p #1 and (maybe) #2 covered...maybe at some point I'll do one for Susi K or Y-Bop or something, but after them not many are really worth knowing about. :!:

 

Now that you should do.

Load it up with pics/videos. :deal

 

Persoon vs. Morelli II:

• [yt]V8l3n1m3uxg[/yt]

(Persoon has the red waistband and the slightly darker braids)


She is basically only ever in really high quality fights.

 

A couple of women's boxing notes from tonight:

Amanda Serrano, possible future unification opponent for Persoon at 135lbs, beat Carla Torres via TKO1 in a non-title bout, improving to 22-1-1 (27).

Ava "Lady of Boxing" Knight returned from a thirteen month layoff since her loss to WBC light flyweight champion Ibeth Zamora Silva, and beat Guadalupe Martinez in the co-main event of the Carlos Cuadras vs. Marvin Mabait card. It also marked her return to flyweight, a division in which she is undefeated (her only loss prior to Zamora Silva coming up at super flyweight, also in a WBC title bid, to Ana Maria Torres) and where she has some excellent wins in Reid, West, Mucino, and Juarez. If she remains at 112lbs she could be another entrant in the p4p top five.

 

:scaredas:

Who is the new trainer/manager? Boxrec only lists Renald DeVulder.

He fought just last March. When did the problems start?

Well it depends. You were right, but your dad is also right, depending on how you look at it. The IBU title can either be viewed as legitimate or not. (it later evolved into the modern European Boxing Union title, not to be confused with the European title which did exist back then, but as of then it was considered a "world" title, although viewed beneath the real, lineal title...kind of like the equivalent of the WBF or IBO today...or, you could argue, more like the WBO or IBF, depending on how much legitimacy you want to grant it...)

So you could make a case for Gustave Roth or Delfine Persoon being the first true Belgian world champion.

Wow, I'll have to check that out. :yep

So it wasn't like Hill vs. Maske II where there was enmity (and actual bad blood shed) between them?

Did you watch it yet?

I'm definitely going to catch Persoon's next defense if there is television coverage for it.

 

You never been with a broad with a lazy eye?

You haven't lived, my friend! :deal
