Kreps and Rivas are fighting for the WBA Fedelatin – World Boxing Association belt

Published

on

Mikiah Kreps and Mayerlin Rivas will fight for the World Boxing Association (WBA) Fedelatin bantamweight title on Friday night at Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel in Niagara Falls, Up-to-date York.

The city native, who made his debut in 2020, is undefeated in eight professional appearances. Now she faces a very essential fight for her development, because she has a chance to win the regional champion title in her own home and she is motivated to do so.

However, it will not be an simple challenge for her, as her opponent will be the former Venezuelan world champion, Mayerlin Rivas. La “Monita” lost to Erika Cruz by a very tough decision last November, losing her super bantamweight world title.

Rivas will be moving down to bantamweight, a division she has also reigned supreme in the past, and she knows a victory will give her a chance to recover and gain a modern shot at a world title, which is her main goal in the miniature term.

Kreps has 8 wins, 3 of them by knockout, while Rivas has 17 wins, 5 losses, 3 draws and 11 knockouts.

Friday night’s fight between Alycia Baumgardner and Delfine Persoon ended in a no-contest after an accidental headbutt resulted in a cut to Persoon’s eyebrow, so Baumgardner remains the World Boxing Association (WBA) super featherweight champion.

This was a unique event due to Brinx TV’s original and different production at Lux Studios in Atlanta, Georgia. The immersive visual experience had the main characters of the two fighters of the main fight, and although the fight could not come to an end, it produced very fascinating things.

The champion showed her great side and already in the first round she managed to knock down her rival and started to turn the scales in her favor. However, the Belgian veteran stayed in the fight, trying to get into the exchange and hurt her opponent until the heads clashed.

After evaluation by the medical team, it was recommended to stop the fight, and the referee decided to stop the action and leave the fight without a decision.

Baumgardner maintains his record of 15 wins, 1 loss and 7 knockouts, while Persoon has a record of 49 wins, 3 losses and 19 knockouts.
