From the WBC Muauythai website -
An elite performance capped a brilliant career for Britain's Denise Mellor who won the WBC Female World Title in the minimum weight division at Bournemouth on July 14.
Mellor showed outstanding skill and aggressive athleticism to win the title by unaminous points decision 49-47, 50-45, 50-46 against a young, brave challenger from Thailand, Nattaya Kantasit .
Both fighters made weight under the minimum -45 kgs requirement and excited the crowd in the seaside haven - the night after the arrival of Olympic torch.
The British champion showed kick and punching skills against the Thai challenger who, while excelling with her defensive kicks, was unable to curb her opponent's ring aggression.
On the same card the international super-middleweight challenge championship was won by Brett Hlavack (USA) who scored an emphatic points win against Harry Baker (UK).
Hlavack, a top ranked USA Muay Thai New Yorker who has fought at Maddison Square Garden, gave notice that he's a first class contender who's ready to challenge the best for the WBC world title.
