What a terrific battle! My gratitude to both fighters for wanting this fight and for giving us one of the most exciting fights I have seen. Just my opinion, but I enjoyed it.
The fight was long and hard with Gladys getting a convincing win. I think most observers would agree that even though it was a back and forth battle Brook seemed to always be getting Gladys in trouble, most so than Gladys did her. But Brook couldn’t seal the deal. Gladys did show either moxie or stupidity or both when she was ready to put Brook away but then relented and gave Brook an even up shot to win. Personally I think “there was method in that madness” as I think Gladys was sure she could beat Brook in an even up battle. She proved it this time. Could there be a rematch? Should there be a rematch?
The Prom Queen contest really surprised me. Gladys won in what must be considered a landslide. Taking nothing away from her victory, I note that there were 54 fewer votes in this contest than the fight. It could be possible that many thought the fight a draw so they voted for both Brook and Gladys in the fight.
