(JAN 14) WBAN received news that
Christy Martin and Dakota Stone will be fighting on the
Showtime card, that will be held at the MGM Hotel, in Las
Vegas, Nevada, on March 12th! Contracts have been signed.
We have learned that Martin and Stone will be the first fight on
the Pay-Per-View, and the two will be fighting six rounds. This
will be a rematch for the two, when they first fought in 2009,
in an exciting 10-round bout for the WBC Middleweight title.
Martin won the first fight by a majority decision--so this
should be a very competitive action-packed bout.
WBAN has been told that there will be a press Conference in New
York for this major PPV card that will take place at the MGM
Hotel, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
I spoke to Dakota Stone by phone, as she is in Las Vegas
today---and she told me that she is extremely excited about
fighting Martin in the rematch. Stone is planning to be
doing her training near Portland, Oregon, and I will be visiting
her at the gym when she trains for this upcoming fight.
