Stacey "Stay Lo" Reile is a professional female boxer who established herself as one of the top female featherweight boxers by winning the first female IBF featherweight championship. Reile was born in Utica, New York and lived there during her childhood. Reile later moved to South Florida and currently resides in Miami Beach, Florida. [1] Reile made an appearance on The Learning Channel's Miami Ink, a reality television show about a tattoo shop in Miami Beach. Reile decided to get angel wing tattoos on her hips and became known as "The Fighting Angel." [2]
Upon moving to South Florida, Reile developed her fitness and won second place at the Miss Fitness South Florida competition in 1999. Reile also began training for boxing in the late 1990s under the tutelage of trainer Luis Lagerman and Women's International Boxing Association (WIBA) President Ryan Wissow. Reile had only two scheduled amateur matches. The first was to take place in the 126 pound division at the Florida State Golden Gloves tournament in 2000. Reile's opponent did not show up, so Reile won by a walkover. Reile also won her second amateur bout by defeating Vanessa Ramos. Although this was Reile's last fight as an amateur, Reile decided to delay becoming a pro boxer and instead honed her craft in the gym for the next four years. Just a few days before her pro debut in 2004, Reile traveled to American Top Team in Coconut Creek, Florida, to spar with Shelby Walker. At the time of the sparring session, Walker was a veteran of 11 pro boxing fights and challenged for a world featherweight title about two months before. Walker is best known for scoring the fastest knockout in women's MMA history with her victory over Angela Wilson in just five seconds. [3]
Reile made her professional debut against Myriam Bazile in Boynton Beach, Florida, on July 24, 2004. Reile won by TKO. The referee waved off the bout at 1:07 of the second round. Reile participated in two unsanctioned bouts in Tokyo, Japan. The first of these was on March 13, 2005, against Riyo Togo in which Reile won by a four-round unanimous decision. Togo suffered her first loss as a pro in this bout. For her second unsanctioned bout, Reile returned to Tokyo to face MMA fighter–boxer Ariya. Reile won by a four-round unanimous decision on October 1, 2005. Reile won by knockout at 37 seconds of the first round against Yessenia de Jesus on February 10, 2006, in Coral Gables, Florida. Reile faced Nora Reyes of Chicago on April 21, 2006. The fight took place in Reyes' home state of Illinois. Reile won by majority decision. Reile faced her first toughest test when she fought Lakeysha "The Total Package" Williams on June 29, 2006 in Miami, Florida. Reile won by TKO when referee Jorge Alonso stepped in between the two boxers and waved off the fight just before the bell rang to end the round. The official time of stoppage was 2:59 of the third round. Reile won by a six-round unanimous decision against WIBA FedeLatina super bantamweight champion Delia Hoppe of the Dominican Republic on December 14, 2006, in Hallandale, Florida. Reile faced another opponent from the Dominican Republic in her next bout against Maribel Santana who had challenged for world titles three times before. Reile defeated Santana by a six-round unanimous decision on January 23, 2008. The fight took place in Reile's home city of Miami Beach, Florida.
Reile fought for the world featherweight championship against WBC and WIBF featherweight champion Ina Menzer of Germany on May 31, 2008. The fight was in Menzer's home country of Germany. After campaigning as a super bantamweight for most of her career, Reile moved to the featherweight division for her bout against Menzer. Menzer hit Reile on her left ear after the bell rang to end the third round. This ruptured Reile's eardrum and affected her equilibrium. With Reile's equilibrium off, Menzer was able to knock Reile down in the fourth round. Reile immediately got up, but her trainer unexpectedly waved his arms which forced the referee to stop the fight. Therefore, the bout was officially ruled a win for Menzer by TKO even though Reile was standing at the time of stoppage which was 1:39 of the fourth round. [4]
Reile fought in the home state of another undefeated opponent when she faced Crystal "Choo Choo" Delgado of Houston, Texas, on March 26, 2009. The fight occurred in Humble, Texas, which is near Houston. The bout was fought at a catch weight of 128 pounds, which is in the middle of the featherweight limit of 126 pounds and the super featherweight limit of 130 pounds. The time of stoppage was 23 seconds of the sixth round and Reile won by TKO. [5]
Reile lost to Ada Velez by unanimous decision on February 27, 2010 in Miami, Florida. [6] Velez was one of the top pound for pound female boxers in the world when this fight took place. World famous boxing trainer Bonnie Canino was the trainer for Velez and wrote that it was the best fight on the card and that Reile is a good representative for the sport. Reile stated that her mother was dying of Stage 4 lung cancer at the time of this fight. [7] Reile's mother passed away about a month later. [8]
Reile lost to Elina Tissen of Germany by unanimous decision on October 9, 2010 for the Global Boxing Union featherweight title. The fight was in Tissen's home country of Germany. [9] Reile was not provided a stool to sit on for the one minute break between rounds. In the tenth and final round, Tissen's gloves touched the canvas after Reile landed a punch which is supposed to be considered a knockdown. The referee allowed the fight to continue and did not do a 10 count. [10]
Reile won the vacant IBF female featherweight championship on March 31, 2011 against Dahiana Santana of the Dominican Republic by a split decision. The fight took place in San Jose, Costa Rica. [11] The title was previously vacant because it was the inaugural title. [12]
Reile lost in her first title defense to Dahiana Santana on November 20, 2011 by unanimous decision. The fight took place in Las Vegas, Nevada. [13] Reile landed a left hook to the body of Santana in round nine which caused Santana to bend over. Referee Joe Cortez paused the fight and allowed Santana to recover because Cortez ruled it a low blow. The punch may have appeared to be low because Santana's trunks were higher than usual. [14]
In an interview, Reile stated that she is ambidextrous which helps her to have punching power in both hands. Reile also stated that she has difficulty getting fights because promoters and matchmakers tell her that she is being avoided as an opponent. [15]
Reile has worked with world-renowned trainers throughout her career such as Eric Castanos, Orlando Cuellar, Jorge Rubio, John David Jackson, and Carlos Gamboa. [16] Reile's pro fights can be viewed on YouTube as well as sparring, training, and her two appearances on the reality television show Miami Ink. Reile is primarily employed as a licensed massage therapist and certified personal trainer. Some of her clients have been celebrities such as Calvin Klein, Queen Latifah, Russell Simmons, and Al Roker. Reile has also done modeling and was photographed and interviewed for the September 2009 issue of Nine5Four Magazine. [17]
