Baumgardner Takes IBF Lightweight Title; Ali, Nicolson and Garcia Also Win at MVPW 07

ARLINGTON, Texas — Alycia Baumgardner is a two-division champion. She defeated Elif Nur Turhan by unanimous decision to win the IBF lightweight title in the MVPW 07 main event at College Park Center on Nov. 8, live on ESPN.

Most Valuable Promotions, The Ring and ESPN Ringside independently confirmed the unanimous decision and the title change. MVP's official results page lists the scorecards as 100-90 on all three judges.

Baumgardner controlled the distance for most of the fight, according to MVP's round-by-round account. Turhan had her better moments with hooks and uppercuts in spots, but the challenger's jab and straight punches carried the cards. The decision ends Turhan's unbeaten run.

Ramla Ali won the vacant IBF and WBO super bantamweight titles, beating Mikiah Kreps by split decision. MVP and The Ring both report the split verdict and the championships. MVP lists the cards as 97-92 and 96-93 for Ali, with one judge scoring 91-98 for Kreps, and says Ali dropped Kreps with a left hand in the third round.

Skye Nicolson retained her WBC super bantamweight title against Miyo Yoshida by unanimous decision. Matchroom and The Ring confirmed the retention; Matchroom lists the official cards as 98-92, 100-90 and 99-91.

Irma Garcia became a unified 115-pound champion, defeating Nataly Delgado by unanimous decision. MVP and The Ring both call her a unified champion; MVP's results report says she retained the IBF title, claimed Delgado's WBA belt and scored all three cards 97-92, with a sixth-round knockdown.

Kimster's take: four championship decisions, four different stories. Baumgardner's move to 135 was the headline assignment, and the cards reflect a clear night's work. Ali needed a knockdown and two cards; Nicolson kept her belt without drama; Garcia added a second title the old-fashioned way. The results speak louder than any post-fight callout.
