(MAY 24) Flash From the Past: WBAN has just published a Slideshow on YouTube from the June 15, 2012, that took place at the Route 66 Casino Hotel, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where Holly Holm, 146, of New Mexico, won by a 10-round unanimous decision over Anne Sophie Mathis, 145.5, of France. Holm won the WBF, IBA, and WBAN welterweight world title. We are beginning to publish historic photos, past photos, videos, etc. from the WBAN Collection. (Good time to do this during the Pandemic!)
