The Daily Inter Lake
Kalispell's Shelley Burton fights Seattle's Dakota Stone at the Majestic Valley Arena on Saturday in the first women's world title bout in Montana history.
Burton already owns the Women's International Boxing Association super-middleweight belt, but she will battle Stone for the world middleweight title.
Stone has a professional record of 7-4-3 while Burton is 8-2. Stone and Burton were scheduled to fight in February, but Stone pulled out of the fight with a muscle injury.
Tickets for the event, which includes six undercard bouts, are on sale at the arena. General admission tickets are $20, ringside tickets cost $30, and ringside tables for six cost $240. Tickets can be purchased by calling 755-5366.
Kalispell's Terrance Crow clashes with Butte's Matt Palmer in a four-round professional bout as part of the undercard.
Anyone wanting to fight on the Club Boxing undercard should call 888-702-4007. Weigh-ins for the undercard will be held Thursday at 6 p.m. at Fatt Boy's Bar and Grill. Fighters are matched by weight and experience and are paid $125 to win and $50 to lose.
