Brooklyn Barwick to Fight Saturday for Phoenix Fury in TCL

Fresh off her second pro KO last week, Brooklyn "The Big Deal" Barwick is scheduled to fight on Saturday at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Florida, USA as part of the Phoenix Fury of the Team Combat League. Phoenix faces the Miami Assassins.

The Team Combat League involves matches between two clubs, each representing a city. Each team puts up 24 boxers who fight in one three-minute round. Of the nine men's and three women's weight classes, each team fields two fighters. Barwick will represent Phoenix in one of the two women's featherweight rounds.

Brooklyn is in tough against Ana Maria Verbeek, who is 2-1 in her four Team Combat League rounds. The 30 year old native of Breda, Netherlands will boast a five-inch height advantage. Verbeek is 1-0 as  a pro.

This should be good experience Barwick, who starched her two opponents so quickly, she hasn't even fought two minutes of pro action yet. Her aggressive, volume-punching style is well suited for this format.
