FCBA Hall of Fame

 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE HALL OF FAME

TESS VALMORE:

The requirements are as follows: a minimum of 100 fights. This shows durability and the ability to be an attractive opponent over a number of years. At present, it would take a fighter a minimum of seven years to get 100 fights. The candidates must have a win/loss percentage of at least 60%. The figure is not ours, but Sim’s, who years ago said a 60% win ratio was “outstanding” Quality of fighter’s opponents can be judged by the number of titles held or the number of title fights The combination of 100 fights and a 60% win ratio severely restricts entry into the Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame, however, is not meant for good fighters but the outstanding ones. 

Requirements:

• 100 fights total.
• 60% win-ratio based on win/loss numbers.
• Draws are counted to the total fight count. 
• Types of fights: Beach fights and Mistress of the Body Saddle bouts are included, as they are conducted under regular FCBA rules. JMD/D and AMD fights are NOT included. In the original JMD fights, anything went included wrestling on the canvas. No rules were ever promulgated. BBU and ACB fights are NOT included. Only FCBA fights.
• A fighter CANNOT enter the Hall of Fame on a loss. Kate Beckinsale is an example. It took her 103 fights. It is entirely possible that a fighter who has won 60 of 99 fights but then loses her 100th bout, then has loses three more in a row, may never get into the Hall. 
• Once a fighter is admitted to the Hall of Fame, she cannot be removed. Some Hall of Fame members have their Hall records drop below the win-ratio of 60%.
• Recently we have barred fighters from the Hall for two many "easy fights" That term needs to be defined
• An easy fight is one as follows;An opponent who hasn't won a fight in three years. An opponent who hasn't fought in thee years and above. an opponent who has  losing streak of five fights or more: A ranking of 5O or higher. An opponent in her first fight: an opponent who has lost 75% of her fights. The first ten fight are on the house as she is learning. After ten fights she needs to win more the 25%

Inducted April 2011.

Tess Valmore:

42. 114 fights. 80-34. 53 KO’S 17 title belts. Has not officially retired but doesn’t get many offers of fights. Perhaps the fact that she has won her last ten may have something to do with it. She was 4-2 against fellow Hall Of Famer, Dani Fishel and once even fought Theron

Inducted April 2011.

Tess Valmore:

39. 112 fights. 78-33-1. 49 KOs. 26 title belts. Her 70% win/loss ratio is second only to her long term rival Charlize Theron. She is still active and recently held the unified lightweight title and has had a 6-4 record over the last year and a half.

Tess Valmore: 

42. 163 fights. 98-61-4. 42 KOs. 26 title belts. Still active but obviously on the downhill. Her 7-9 record over the last two plus years has diminished her win/loss ratio. Should retire.

Inducted April 2011.

Tess Valmore:

I have to admit not inducting her into the Hall of Fame on the last induction was an oversight. We should have inducted her before one other. She came up to the FCBA in November 1999 with the venerable TE stable. She fought under the TE banner until May, 2004, when she switched to HISC. She has a record of 106-56-7 with 73 KO’s. That puts her second in KOs among the Hall of Fame boxers 

She has held 27 title belts which is more than any other flyweight. Her win/loss ratio is 65%. Willliams is known to be a rough but not dirty fighter, more in the style of a brawler. Presently 30 years of age, she has years ahead of her.      

Inducted April 2011.

Tess Valmore:

I suspect this will be a surprise to many. At 29, she is the youngest to be inducted into the Hall Of Fame. She came into the FCBA at the age of 18 and is now a veteran of 133 fights with a record of 81-46-6 and 54 KO’s. Her won/loss ratio is 63% with 18 title belts. She started out under HISC and is now in her fourth stable, Hour Glass, but for all intents and purposes is a member of Front Street where she trains and hangs out. Fourteen percent of her fights have been against Hall OF Fame members Dani Fishel and Eliza Dushku plus a series against Jewel Kilcher who now also hangs her hat at Front Street. She is now also instrumental in helping guide the career of her younger sister Jamie Lee Spears. She should have five or six more years ahead of her.
 

Inducted April 2011.

Tess Valmore:

36. After two years as an independent, she joined Bell Sports in 2003 and fought for that stable until it’s unfortunate demise. She had 115 fights with a record of 75-39-1 and 43 KOs. She only held seven title belts but in one she had six successful defenses. She is the only fighter to win two best of seven series. She at times served as a gate keeper for other Bell Sports fighters such as Kaley Cucuo and Charisma Carpenter. She was a real crowd pleaser but being a crowd pleaser doesn’t get you into the Hall Of Fame but being a crowd pleaser with a win/loss ratio of 66% does. She retired at the end of 2008 with the closing of Bell Sports although she did make a brief appearance in an MILF tournament at the end of last year. She is presently a fight promoter.

Inducted October 2011.

Tess Valmore: 

32. She had her first fight in 1999 and only two more in 2000 before joining HISC. She has had 120 fights and a record of 69-45-6. She barely made the 60% requirement with a 60.52 win ratio. She is in a rough period losing three or her last four which cost he three points on the win ratio. She met the requirements. She has held ten title belts.

Inducted October 2011.

Tess Valmore:

34 Probably the surprise. She attained the 100 fight level on 6/18/11. She has had 100 fights with a record of 63-37 which gives her a 63% win ratio. She has 46 knockouts to her credit. She has also amassed 23 titles including seven unified titles. Pressly fought as an independent for four years before joining Kim KruZherZ were she remained until the stable was terminated. She is now with Empire. Unfortunately Empire doesn’t seem too interested as she has only had one bout this year.     

Inducted May 2012.

Tess Valmore:

Miss Biel fought her 100th fight in February of this year. She has a win/loss ratio of 63%. She has won 27 title belts including 8 unified lightweight titles.

She broke into the FCBA with Tech Unlimited and under Technetium quickly developed into one of the top lightweights. At the end of July 2009, she moved over to Medallion where her success has continued. She also has an association with Front Street where she sometimes works out or helps fighter prepare for fights.

Inducted May 2012.

Miss Campbell’s championship win in the last PPV was in her 109th fight and her 64th win. Her win loss/ratio is 60.37% Clare Danes was inducted with a very similar ratio. Neve has won 13 title belts including four unified bantam titles. Neve broke into the FCBA with the Mounties in 2000. In 2002, she moved to the illustrious Samdog, and there defeated Heather Kozar in the first loser leaves bout in FCBA history. We believe it was also the first non-Sim fight to appear on the board. When Samdog closed in 2005, she moved back to the Mounties, until it closed in 2006. In 2010, The Wiz recruited her to be the assistant trainer at Front Street, a position she still holds. In addition to being a trainer she has managed to build a 10-2 record.

Inducted August 2014.

She started out under Bell Sports and moved to Medallion when Bell Sports went out of business. She has a 40% KO to fights ratio and a 65% KO to wins ratio, both quite high

Inducted August 2014.

Tess Valmore:

Could have been inducted earlier but we waited until Cuoco qualified. We didn’t want to do a single induction. She has now had 103 fights with 63 wins with two draws giving her a 62% win ratio. This 33 year old flyweight has held 27 title belts consisting of nine unified flyweight titles. She is presently in her third stable, HISC, after her first two stables folded.
