“Being here in Florida is great for the weight cut. I’ve been down here for nine weeks and it’s hot every day. I’m sweating and working hard and the pounds are just coming off.”

HANNAH RANKIN, IBO Super Welterweight Champion

“It’s fantastic to be in Florida training for this fight. Everything has been perfect and I’m feeling great.

“I’m really looking forward to October 5. Me and my opponent are going to put on a great show for fans for six rounds or as long as it lasts. I want to show them what women’s boxing is about.

I’m going to be better conditioned and more patient and finally prove to fans why I’m America’s next great heavyweight.”

The 36-year-old is coming off a career-best win over previously undefeated Tomas Salek for the regional Czech heavyweight title. De 6-foot-5 Sour is vocht na alle zijn professionele periodes in zijn geboorteland Tsjechië en zal zijn het Amerikaanse maken. debuut tegen Franklin.

A 29-year-old standing 5-foot-3, Smid (13-2, 7 KO) carries a reputation as a throwback and one of the most exciting Detroit fighters of the last decade. Known for his fearless aggression in the ring, Smith’s fights are always “must see” fare for Detroiters. Also an accomplished amateur, Smith is a former National Amateur Champion and eight-time Golden Gloves Champion. His last fight came in February of this year at the Performance Arts Center in Dearborn, Mich., where he won a unanimous six-round decision over Mexico’s Jonathan Lecona Ramos.

“Detroit is one of the best boxing fight cities in the country and this fight is an example of that,” Said Word. “Ja’Rico is touted as one of the best American super flyweights, while James Smith was a can’t-miss prospect when he turned professional. This fight could turn out to be the fight of the night because both guys will leave it all in the ring to win. Will it be Ja’Rico’s speed and timing, or will James Smith grind him down with his aggression and pressure? No matter who wins, this will be an unforgettable war.”
