The bout between undisputed female super featherweight champion Alycia Baumgardner (15-1, 7 KOs) and former world champion Delfine Persoon (49-3, 19 KOs) ended in a no-contest on Friday night at Lux Studios in Atlanta, Georgia. The bout was stopped in round four due to a cut suffered by Persoon that was caused by an accidental head clash. Since the bout didn’t go the full four rounds, the result was a no-decision. Baumgardner remains undisputed WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO champion.

Baumgardner got a knockdown at the end of the first round, but they both looked pretty bad. Both have been inactive and looked like it and Persoon had a massive leg brace on.
I haven’t watched it yet, but it sounds like the looked pretty war-torn. Train well, heal up and call for the rematch. Whoever is more disciplined should go home with the belts.
Baumgardner didn’t look bad, dammm what people that can’t box say! I didn’t think she took advantage of oppotunities that were available seeing she was fighting a 39 year old with a full leg brace, hell next people will be coming in the ring with a wheel chair. I wanted see to her conditioning but it didn’t become a fire fight or go late but this is the problem with woman boxers who want to be paid like men but have limited competition and are going 2 minute rounds and still get tired GTHOH!
