At
the County Coliseum in her home-town of El Paso,
Texas,
Rodriguez
defeated Maryguenn Vellinga, from Park City in
Utah, by hard-fought split decision.
It
was a high intensity bout with both women
willing to engage and not afraid to let their
punches fly, making it entertaining and
competitive from beginning to end.
After eight
rounds of boxing, judges Daniel Sandoval and
Raul Valencia scored it 78-74 and 79-73 for
Rodriguez, while judge Lawrence Louick had it
77-75 for Vellinga.

by King´s Promotions.
