Tess Valmore stands before the mic: It’s one of the pleasures of my job is to announce a new member of the Hall Of Fame, which we are doing this morning
On September 27th, 2021, Kate Beckinsale won her sixty-third bout in her 108th fight becoming eligible for the Hall of Fame. Kate becomes the twenty-fifth member of this exclusive organization.
The requirements for the Hall Of Fame go back to 2010. The number of fights was set at 100. At that time, it would take an active fighter at least seven years to get that many fights and would show durability and the ability to remain an attractive opponent. The required win-loss ratio of 60% was basically the idea of the commissioner, Simquy, who held that winning 60% of fights was outstanding. He has been proved to be right. The win- loss ratio has been accomplished by an infinitely small number of fighters when the total number of fighters is considered. We estimate that number to be around 1.10%. Recently, we had to take into consideration the quality of opponents as easy fights have become common. A career of wins over second and third tier fighters with losing records will not be considered. Only standard boxing matches are considered. JMD/DD are not and will not be considered
Kate broke into the FCBA on April 7.2002 as a member of Ultimate Fighter. In 2003, she moved to Will Power Productions in 2003 and stayed until 2005 when the stable folded. She was unmanaged until June 11, 2009 when she joined TKO Boxing On October 12, 2010 she left TKO Boxing for Empire Boxing where she stayed until April 20, 2019 when she left to join the VIXENS as Head of Training and Communications
Kate’s first fight was on April 7, 2002 losing to Dina Meyer, a top lightweight. Interestingly, her second fight the next year was against Jessica Biel, a lightweight in the Hall Of Fame. During her career, she has fought six members of the Hall Of Fame three of them lightweights including Theron, Garner and Biel, all of them more than once. On January 16. 2001, she fought her 100th fight, but was short on win percentage. She was not discouraged and continue to fight. On September 27, 2029 she beat her arch enemy Jenny McCarthy to gain the 60% win average and join this elite group of fighters. Interestingly Kate is the only member of the Hall OF Fame never to hold a title
