Jason - in that article Yankovich herself said she lost the fight and Esther was in better shape than her.
Yvonne - Esther's copied your hair do.

There's a slightly different take at www.ukzambians.co.uk/that doesn't contain the concession from Duda. Zambia Esther Phiri is the new Women International Boxing Association (WIBA) welterweight World Champion following an credible 10-round unanimous decision victory over Duda Yankovinch.
Esther saw off Duda Yankovinch the defending champion to win a 6 successive title at the Mulungushi International Conference Center, Lusaka last Saturday.
Esther Phiri is now the Women International Boxing Association (WIBA) champion , Women International Boxing Federation (WIBF) featherweight Intercontinental and World champion, the Global Boxing Union (GBU) super featherweight Intercontinental, World Champion and the Global Boxing Council (GBC) light weight title holder.
After ten arduous rounds, the results were announced, judge one, 100-92, judge two 100-95, judge three 100 -91 all in favour of Esther.
Despite an untidy display from both fighters, Esther was never in any danger, out-boxing Duda in the first seven rounds before a slap-fest insured in the latter three rounds.
The defeated champion declared that a rematch was in order.The fight's also going to be posted on YouTube. |
