Sparks Makes History

On Friday May 24, 2013 the Quiet Cannon played host to one of the biggest fights of 2013 in the Los Angeles Battle of the Badges. Fight fans saw Public Safety Boxing history being made as two of the best female fighters in the state went at it in the main event for the Super Middleweight State Championship Title. Julie “C-Cat” Williams, CDCR San Quentin Prison put her undefeated record on the line against #1 ranked Police Olympic Gold Medalist Stephanie “Motor City Sparks, LASD.  For 6 minutes it was a back and forth war with neither fighter giving up any ground. After two very close rounds it was anyone’s fight.  Whoever wins the 3^rd round, wins the title. The fight would go the distance and would be left in the judges hands.  Once the scores were added up the decision was announced……And the new UCA Super Middleweight State Champion from the Los Angeles Sheriff Dept. Stephanie “Motor City” Sparks. Sparks and Williams engaged in a competitive battle but is was Sparks who  would edge out a split decision win and make the Los Angles Sheriff Dept. proud by becoming the first UCA Female State Champion.   The underlining factor of the fight is Cardio. Sparks seemed to have a little bit more left in the tank at the end of the fight. Williams would suffer the first defeat of her career and fall to 5-1. It’s a tough loss for Williams who said after the fight, “Set up a rematch.”
