(MAY 19) WBO, WBA and IBA lightweight
champ Nate Campbell spoke out on the upcoming IFBA title fight
between Chevelle Hallback (26-5-2) and Jeannine Garside (7-0-1) on
June 13, at the Isleta Casino Resort in Albuquerque, NM on the
Fresquez Promotions "Finally" women’s championship PPV.
"Chevelle is more than just a fighter, she’s a friend I love and
respect," Campbell said, "But she’s also as tenacious as they come.
She can be as mean as they come, too. Chevelle is very competitive,
and a good fight will make Chevelle do what she’s gotta do."
With Garside’s 40-5 amateur record and her 7-0-1 record in the pros,
Campbell realizes she brings a lot of experience to the ring, but he
knows about Chevelle’s skill first hand. "You know Chevelle is my
sparring partner," he stated. " Chevelle can do it all and do
anything in the ring she has a mind to. She is one of the best
fighters of her era. She lost to Luica Rijker in only her second pro
fight and beat Emiko Raika in Japan -- I was in her corner. Chevelle
has experience out of this world and you can’t ask for much more
than that."
Along with experience against such tough fighters as Rijker,
Campbell reminds Garside that Chevelle also comes to the ring with
equal ability in both hands. "She better be careful," Nate warned. "Chevelle
can punch with both hands. If they’re looking for a faded warrior to
put Garside on the map with a win, I don’t see it being Chevelle
Hallback. I don’t believe any woman can beat her at 100-percent."
Hallback and Garside collide for the IFBA lightweight championship
when "Finally" brings the best of women's championship boxing to PPV
live from the Isleta Resort Casino in Albuquerque on Friday, June
13, at 10 PM/ET-8 PM/MT.
