Susie Ramadan: “It was a tough fight, I knew it was close”Speaking post fight to Adam Auld from Aus-Boxing.com Susie Ramadan said that she felt the weight difference between her and her opponent Alesia Graf who she defeated in a split decision live on Fox Sports, Friday night at the Melbourne Pavillion. “It was tough tonight, I expected a tough fight. She was bigger than me I felt the weight difference, it felt like she was 5-10kgs heavier. I could see she was going for the kill, but I just remained calm and stuck to the plan.” The win for Ramadan sets up a WBC Women’s Bantamweight showdown with Thailand’s-Usanakorn Kokietgym. ”Now I will have a short break and will need to prepare differently as Kokietgym is a southpaw,” said Ramadan. “I love my team, I love the environment it’s all positve. There is alot more women boxing at North Melbourne Boxing & Fitness, it’s a good feeling. Right now I feel awesome.” Many people thought that Graf was very unlucky to not receive the decision but Ramadan felt she was up in the closing stages, “I knew it was close at round 8 but I thought I was in front.” Ramadan’s new trainer, Steve Stenborg also spoke highly about his Susie’s win, “She hasn’t fought since October, which a long time out of the ring against an opponent like Graf. But I thought when she boxed her (Graf) she looked her best.” “She listened to me at the end of every round, I’m very proud. I didn’t think some of the rounds were that close, but believe Susie just out boxed her (Graf). Right now I’m gonna have a beer, have a break, look at time frames and hope to prepare for a WBC world title shot for her this year.” Source: www.aus-boxing.com/2012/02/24/susie-ramadan-it-was-a-tough-fight-i-knew-it-was-close/ |
