LAS VEGAS -- She is an American girl who possesses the 3Bs' in life, beauty, brain and boxing skills. She took the PAL flight 107 from Las Vegas on July 19 2008 bound for Cebu, Philippines with Tony Martin, her boxing trainer and once a resident of Labangon, Cebu for 18 years before migrating to America and settled in Las Vegas .
"Don't be fooled by her good looks as this girl posseses power punches that will knock you down," Tony said of Brenda Shaylor. "She has that woman nature, the inside aggression, that she will hit back and counter-punch with every opportunity."
"I am nervous," Brenda said of her upcoming fight on July 26, 2008 at Cebu Coliseum as a special attraction and one of the supporting bouts to the main event between AJ Banal (17 Wins , 0 Lost, 1 Draw) and Rafael Concepcion (10 wins, 2 Loses, 1 Draw) for the vacant WBA super flyweight Title. A natural response for a very humble 23-year old woman who always carries a smile and who just passed the nursing board exam in Las Vegas, Nevada last July 15, 2008.
"I am thankful to Mr. Tony Aldeguer and the ALA promotions for giving me the opportunity to show by boxing skills and to my trainer, Tony Martin, who has been training me and hones my skills for over a year now and I am excited that I will be going to the Philippines not just to fight but to learn about the country and its people, Brenda said.
Like any other health conscious American girl, Brenda started boxing as work out to keep her body fit. Instead of going to 24-hour fitness gym and work on the treadmill, she hit the punching bags and develop not just a healthy body but also confidence in her day to day life. With that she already has 3 winning bouts on her resume.
"This fight will open the door to Brenda to a lot of opportunities and I hope she will realize it," Tony Martin added.
I am very confident that Brenda will be successful in life with her boxing skills and more so with her day to day life as a nurse helping people.
