ALYCIA BAUMGARDNER – 129.8
BO MI RE SHIN – 129.4
Alycia Baumgardner (18-1, 7 KOs) scored a unanimous 10-round decision over Bo Mi Re Shin (19-4-3, 10 KOs) at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night. Baumgardner used superior boxing skills to outpoint the hard-charging Shin. Official scores: 98-92, 98-92, 99-91.
Shin came forward throughout and took a lot of punishment, with Baumgardner peppering her with both hands. There was one stretch over rounds six and seven where Baumgardner appeared to slow down and then later employed movement while Shin got through with her power shots.
Over rounds 8-10, however, Baumgardner was back in control and won comfortably on the scorecards, despite needing a huge effort to overcome Shin’s relentless assault.
In her in-ring interview, Baumgardner called out Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano.
The MVPW 02 event was broadcast live on ESPN.
