TESS VALMORE


The Taylor/Ora fight was billed as two fighters looking for management. It didn’t go well for Ora. She was flattened in less than four. I doubt this bout will get Taylor management. She’s been around for six years and has sparked no interest. As for Ora, It going to get lonely out there on your own.

Prior to this fight, Hendricks had never beaten a really good fighter. Brook was the wrong person to pick on, even with Charlize in her corner. As a result Hendrick still hasn’t beaten a really good fighter. Brook surprised no one with her win.

As I said in my predictions, Gadot left her alleged fighting ability at the door when she came into the FCBA Lipa has success in the BBU and since coming to the FCBA, she had won two of three. Let’s make that three out of four now. After beating Ratajkowski and Gardner, did you really expect Gadot to give her trouble.

Coming into the fight with Keegan, Kendrick had lost her last seven failing to finish the sixth in six of those bouts. Well you can make that failing finish the sixth in seven of eight. No surprise here.

Valance/Jansen fight for the ACB title was on the bizarre side. Two fighting for the title, who had only three ACB fight between them. Jansen won the title in her first ACB fight which makes the ACB lightweight division look as deserted as the outback. Apparently all the good fighters from the land of Oz are busy in the FCBA. Well anyway, Jansen no longer holds the title.

I said Swift was an unlikely champion and would have a short reign. It’s a good ting I forgot to predict this fight. I would have picked Perry to win. You might say she lost by a nose.
