Promises to knockout Pamela London

Just one month after registering a decisive victory over American Laura Ramsay in an eight round non title bout at the Fort Myers Stadium, Miami Florida, Gwendolyn ‘Stealth Bomber’ O’Neil has returned to Guyana bristling with confidence in preparation of her bout against Pamela London on the Holland Enterprise Promotions card slated for the Princess Hotel, Providence on November 6 next.
O’Neil returned to Guyana recently to keep her ring date and moments after wrapping up training sessions, yesterday morning she pronounced that she is ready to throw down the gauntlet on London, a fighter she has defeated once.
Looking in the pink of condition O’Neil boasted that she is in the best shape of her life and the fight might not go the distance. Sporting well toned muscles O’Neil revealed that she has been engaged in stiff training in her new country of residence, the United States of America.
She said that her bout against Ramsay was more or less a warm up engagement for next month’s bout even as she boasted that the American was no match for her.
Elaborating on the bout, O’Neil said that she floored the American once in the sixth of the eight rounds encounter on her way to a lopsided unanimous shutdown. “It was a brutal fight; she caught me with a few good punches but I was able to rally to the end,” the ‘Stealth Bomber’ intimated. She further revealed that the bout was to have been against another American, Crystal David but experienced a change of opponents after a perusal of the respective records of the two fighters.
She said that now that the bout is out of her way she is focused on the upcoming fight against London. “I heard that she has not signed for the bout as yet; I don’t know what she is waiting for,” said O’Neil. She said that she has learnt that London would be signing sometime during the week.
On the issue of her training programme O’Neil said that she has been involved in a hectic programme under the tutelage of Dillon Carew. During her preparations in the USA, O’Neil said that she operated out of the Kid Kelly Boxing Gym on Liberty Avenue and has sparred more than sixty rounds among such fighters as Rawle Frank, an American fighter and Dillon Carew. “Frank really gave me a good workout along with support from my coach who also sparred a few rounds with me,” she shared.
O’Neil said that she has already opened camp at the Andrew ‘Sixhead’ Lewis Gym, Albouystown and would be polishing off her sessions in anticipation of a tough bout against her nemesis.
Several other bouts would make up the card including Rawle Frank against Denny Dalton and Leon Moore up against a Venezuelan opponent. Shondell Alfred would also be back in action for the first time after her stunning knockout over Corrinne Van Ryck Degroot, in defense of her WIBA bantamweight crown. All of the respective fighters are engaged in ardent preparations in gyms in Georgetown and its environs.
