(APR 28) BSU (Boxing Sport Union) in
Wuppertal held it's 4th International Women's Boxing Tournament on
April 25th and 26th. Approximately 85 boxers took part in the
tournament, which is considered the biggest Women's Boxing Event in
Germany, only matched with the German Championships as far as number
of competitors is concerned. The full spectre of female boxers were
represented, from young novices to the best women boxers from
Switzerland, Poland, The Netherlands as well as several German
Champions.
Your correspondent had the pleasure if following part of the
tournament, i.e. Saturday evening and Sunday morning/afternoon, and
was treated to some very good entertainment. The bouts,
with only a few exceptions, were a display of a very high standard
of boxing skills. What a pity, that so few fans attended the event;
they really missed out on a great opportunity to watch some very
good women amateur boxers in action.
