		There is a Florida-based organization, the WIBF (Women's International Boxing Federation), that sanctions women's championship bouts and ranks fighters by weights.
		Similarly, the WIBF had yet to issue rankings for the heavyweight division, which consists of fighters weighing 170 pounds or more.
		That underscores how relatively unrestricted and improvisational the women's side of the fight game is. And why Elbaum decided he would protect Childers' face by having her wear headgear when she fought, figuring he could probably get away with it.

		Canino started out as a professional kickboxer in 1987 (she competed as an amateur for three years before) because she had more opportunities to compete than she would have had as a boxer; she won two world championships before dropping everything to begin her professional boxing career in 1995.
		That was the year, Canino says, that Las Vegas first sanctioned women's boxing, and WIBF's Buttrick spent her life's savings to bring in top women kickboxers from all over the world for a gala, all-woman card at the Aladdin Hotel.
		Canino thus won her first world title -- the WIBF featherweight belt -- in her first pro fight.

		Bonnie Canino, the Women's International Boxing Federation (WIBF) featherweight (126 pounds) champion out of South Florida, flew to New Orleans in March 1997 to defend her title against a young Irish puncher named Deirdre Gogarty.
		This was at the beginning of a huge crest of popular interest in women's pro boxing, and the 36-year-old Canino, who had competed in kickboxing and boxing for more than a decade by then, figured it was about time for her to start reaping the recognition and earnings due a world champion in any sport.
		And after that New Orleans debacle, the Cobra struck back at the promoter (no longer active), the WIBF, and those industry operatives whom she held responsible for the loss of her title and purse.
