Trinidad Newsday Wednesday, January 2 2008 www.newsday.co.tt/sport/0,70733.html Salandy gives back to the needySalandy and her manager, boxing promoter and match-maker Boxu Potts spend Monday feeding the vagrants at Tamarind Square, Brian Lara Promenade, Port of Spain. The gesture was one of Goodwill to ensure that the poor and the needy, like everyone else, spent a happy New Year. The initiative was the brainchild of Salandy who expressed that the love and appreciation that has been showered on her by the nation, should give back just a little to say thanks. And she stressed that there is no other way to do it than giving to those that need it the most. Salandy who successfully defended her title with an impressive victory over American Dakota Stone in a unanimous decision at the Jean Pierre Complex on November 30, plans to continue addressing the plight of the less privileged across the country. The stylish Salandy will be back in the ring on March 1, to make her mandatary defence against German Karolina Lukasik at the same Mucurapo venue. The 24 year old Lukasik stands at 6ft 1/2” and has an unbeaten record of nine victories in as many fights. Six of her wins came via the knock-out route and she will start with an advantage in reach and height when she faces Salandy.

Will this be for all five belts, WIBA, WIBF, WBA, WBC & GBU, or just for the WBA title?

That would be WBA, WBC, IWBF, WBE. What would the sanctioning fees be for a fight like that?
