It was in the first minute of the first round of the 12 round championship bout when she was hit with a powerful jab to her chin that knocked her out.
When the bell chimed for the bout to start the spectators in the packed arena stood to their feet in unison, the air in the arena reverberated with their loud cheers and merrymaking. The action was intense jizelle had landed several solid blows to her opponent’s body; she landed a powerful uppercut that her stumbling backward into the ropes, dizzy.
Then it happened, the blow came at her as if from nowhere, like lightening from a cloudless sky, BAM! And she was out. She fell slowly to the mat as if to say “give me a second, I’m not done yet”. Within seconds the ringside doctor was at her side, the referee declared “fight over”. The doctor screamed “not bloody yet!” but unfortunately it was.
That faithful Sunday morning the world of Trinidad and Tobago came to an abrupt stop, our world stood still as death held her hand her body draped in her eight (8) Championship Title Belts as she walked into eternity confident and with a smile on her face.
Jizelle we will always love you.
