JOSIAH Judah, brother of former famed world champion Zab Judah along with world champions Pamela London and Gwendolyn ‘Stealth Bomber’ O’Neil have all been announced to appear on next month’s Caribbean Fury-2 boxing card which is slated for the Princess Hotel and Casino at Providence.

According to Carwyn Holland who along with Lion Love Entertainment of New York and Hurry-up Promotions will be staging the event, they have been receiving an unprecedented response from the world wide boxing community and after rationing things out, the three mentioned fighters were the best fit for the occasion.

Judah, 32, has only stepped into the square circle 11 teams with his first professional fight being against Haitian Julio Jean over four rounds, picking up a unanimous decision win.

The 6’ 1” well built Judah has a ring record of nine wins, two of which came via TKO, one draw and a lost suffered at the hands of Don Mouton on July 5, 2008 in Las Vegas, USA.

The American has never fought for a major title and as matter of fact, based on the popular and efficient search engine boxrec.com known as the boxing bible where fighters stats is concerned, Judah has never fought past six rounds.

However, his proposed opponent for the November 6 card is Winston Pompey, a journeyman of the sport locally who has fought some of Guyana’s best fighters in the middleweight division ever since he made his professional debut in 2005.

Pompey holds a record of three wins from his 10 fights, being defeated seven times, tasting the canvas six times in the process.

Meanwhile, O’Neil who presently stands as the number one female heavyweight fighter in the world will face London for the second time in her ten year career.

Now at age 41, O’Neil, the holder of the Women’s International Boxing Association (WIBA) and the Global Boxing Union (GBU) Heavyweight title, seems to be in the best shape of her life and now facing London who is also the holder of the WIBC heavyweight title, local boxing would be in for a relishing treat.

London and O’Neil first met on July 9, 2005 at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall where the ‘Stealth Bomber’ was defending her Women’s International Boxing Council (WIBC) light heavyweight title.

O’Neil took the eight rounder by unanimous decision and the two were eager to meet again until now.
Two months after her lost to O’Neil, London went on to knock out Trinidadian Kim Quashie in the seventh round to lift her first world title and the calls for a clash with now number one female heavyweight fighter intensified.

The fight will be a none-title according to Holland who was contacted yesterday. He mentioned that, “we are happy with the response the card is getting because of the success of the first Caribbean Fury last year.”

“I think this one would be even better especially with Judah coming down to fight, I’m sure people would want to see what he has to offer because of his brother’s success and so on, so its going to be big.
Now that London and Gwendolyn will be going at it, now that’s a big fight because it’s the best the world, has to offer in Women’s heavyweight going head to head,” Holland profoundly stated.
