(NOV 1) On October 22nd,
Brittany Sims (1-2), wearing purple shorts, faced Angela Danzig
who was making her professional boxing debut in a scheduled four
round feather weight bout. Danzig’s previous professional
experience consisted of a majority draw in a bare knuckle bout
in New York. Sims was coming in to the fight after losing her
previous two bouts.
The difference was clear early in
the first round. Danzig came to box, and she showed some skill
in moving and jabbing, while Sims came to fight and she was
loading up power shots and firing away. Sims out punched Danzig,
and landed quite a few shots to the taller Danzig’s body early
in the first round. Danzig tired to answer, shooting a jab that
was meant to keep Sims at a distance, but Sims charged forward
while throwing punches.
Near the one minute mark Sims
pinned Danzig in the corner an landed a number of body shots
that dropped Danzig. Danzig stood, and the action moved across
the ring, but again, Sims pinned Danzig on the ropes and body
shots dropped Danzig for the second time. The end came shortly
there after as Sims landed a hard left uppercut that landed
flush on Danzig’s chin, sending her to the canvas. The referee
quickly stepped in to end the fight.
There was some confusion as to
the official time, as it was announced as a KO at 2:18 of the
first round. The time keeper may not have noticed the referee
waving a stop to the fight as the referee waved a stop and then
quickly knelt down to keep Danzig’s head from hitting the
canvas.
The knockout win evens Sims record at 2-2, and both of her wins
have come by first round knockouts.
