28-year-old Terri Harper champion will do the first defense of her title, and a 42-year-old pretender Natalie Zimmermann will take part in her first fight for the title of world champion. Harper is a multi -purpose world champion who wants to make a statement against her undefeated opponent.

In November 2021, the then champion of WBC Super-Feather, Terri Harper, faced the title of the world title by Alycia Baumgardner. It was a shocking box of boxing when Baumgardner stopped Harper in the fourth round.

A year later, Harper bounced off, beating Hannah Rankin and winning the title of WBA Junior-Middle weight. Harper would perform two successful defense of the title, and then decided to go down with a weight class to fight for the WBO welterweight title.

Harper O offer will not become a welterweight champion, because Sandy Ryan stopped her in the fourth round. Six months later, Harper received another shot at Gold Championship, and she used when she beat Rhiannon Dixon and won the lithe WBO belt.

Now the British Master Terri Harper is ready to defend the WBO title for the first time. Harper’s opponent plans to ruin the event related to returning home by playing the role of a spoiler and restoring the title to her homeland.

Natalie Zimmermann from Hamburg in Germany began her career in combat sport as a kickboxer, in which she won three more German national championships. Zimmermann moved to a professional boxing at the age of 38.

She made her debut in August 2020, when she defeated Abigail Quashie by a divided decision. Zimmermann continued her winning ways when she detached 12 additional wins. Now the invincible claimant will try to employ his first shot in the title of world champion.

Judging by her flawless album, one might think that Natalie Zimmermann is a worthy claimant for the title of the world, but it may not be like that. Zimmermann is undefeated, but she never stood an opponent with a winning record.

Natalie Zimmermann is a warrior who has a boxing style. She has rapid feet and is aggressive, but her technique is defective, she cast many shots from her shoulder, and its defense is sketchy.

The defending Master Terri Harper is definitely a more refined warrior. He has a solid stab, good leg work, knows how to control the range, and when he invents coverage, it allows combinations to fly.

This should be a type of struggle for Terri Harper, but in a recent interview a determined claimant spoke about his ambitions.

“My dream has always been to prove himself against warriors like Terri and presenting my skills,” said Zimmermann. “My trainer and I will develop combat strategies. There will certainly be some surprises for my opponent.”

The battle for the World WBO title is set for May 23. The only question is: will it be a routine victory or a huge nervousness?

After two classic battles, Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano are once again fighting on July 11 in Madison Square Garden. This fight is not only a massive deal because it contains the two best boxers of women on earth. It will also be broadcast live in Netflix, which is nothing but battle fans, as well as for sport that requires huge fights that do not cost viewers to watch live. Now there is a message that the whole card will officially consist of women’s fights. If this is not the first, for the first time such a card was presented at such a huge stage as this.

“The card contains an unprecedented level of global talent, including three of the four and five first ten,” said the promoter Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian via ESPN. “It’s like having Canelo, Gervont, Crawford, Inoue and Usyk on the same card – well, we have it for women and it will be amazing. With five worldwide fights – three united and two unquestionable – Friday, July 11 will be not only a decisive night for MVP as women’s leader, but a pivotal moment for sport.”

Give Paweł’s bold – he knows how to organize an event. And July 11 will not be an exception. Expect Madison Square Garden only because of the fact that Taylor and Serrano are wonderful arc rivals (their previous fights were so good that they are considered great by every standard, man or woman). Loading Undercard certainly does not intend to weaken the event’s dismissal. In fact, well -known warriors will be leading to the main event.

For example, Alycia Baumgardner will take over the invincible Jennifer Miranda. Similarly, Savannah Marshall he will have to face Shadasia GreeN. Like Taylor-Serrano, Baumgardner and Marshall, the fights will include the unquestioned word titles. It cannot be denied that it will be a huge night of boxing. And if any of the fights is as invigorating as the first two Taylor-Serrano matches, it will also be an unforgettable box of boxing. This is undoubtedly a golden age for women in boxing. One can only hope that another breed of women of fighters meets with the standard set Taylor, Serrano and others. We should enjoy what we have when we have it.

Maxi Hughes says that he gives Shakur Stevenson an advantage in the fight with William Zedaa on July 12 at the Louis Armstrong stadium in Queens, Up-to-date York. However, Hughes is not sure if the lightweight champion of WBC Stevenson (23-0, 11 KO) can stop Zeda (33–0, 27 KO) with the assist of feeble hands and a lack of impact power.

Non -capable pace of Zepeda

Hughes learned how arduous it was to leisurely down Zepeda when a Mexican artist stopped him in the fourth round last year. He says that William is just approaching, throwing blows and making arrows to land on his volume.

Hughes thinks Zepeda will do against Shakur and thinks that he can be successful if Newark, from Up-to-date Jersey feeble glass hands They are not sturdy enough to withstand pressure.

If Shakur loses, Turks Alalshikh may need to consider removing him from future Riyadh season cards, because there would be no sense of artificial support for his career. Promoter Eddie Hearn could save money without bothering with the extension of Stevenson’s contract from the stable in the match.

Hearn is fighting how he intends to change Shakur in “Global Star” And we fans think it’s crazy. They got stuck, watching Stevenson’s fights on ESPN and know what he meant.

“Immediately after this fight I thought:” I think he defeated Shakur. ” And I still give Shakur because of his skills and how Tevin Farmer did well against Zepeda – said Maxi Hughes Boxing fans Asked who wins the fight Shakur Stevenson vs. William Zepeda on July 12 at the Louis Armstrong stadium at Queens, Up-to-date York.

Zepeda overwhelmed Maxi Hughes with volume, forcing to stop the fourth round in the fight in March 2024 in Las Vegas. He tried to pack Zeda, but the Mexican went through his arrows and buried him with blows in the third and fourth rounds. Zepeda will try to do the same Shakur, which is even less puncher than Maxi. The power he had will not be effective because of his feeble hands.

“One is, he [Zepeda] He does not leisurely down, and he does not get tired and is good inside – said Hughes about William Zepeda.

Shakura’s shortbread

“It will be fascinating to check if Shakur, We know he has shortbread handsor can he stop him. Because one thing was that he would still be ahead, and if Shakur does not hurt him, Zepeda would go: “I will take a few of them to go inside and land.”

There is no doubt that Zepeda will go through Shakura’s arrows to get closer to the landing. In this way Zepeda fought with Tevin Farmer and defeated him in both fights. He was approaching the farmer’s breaking in their rematch on March 29 at Cancun, Mexico. Tevin turned away from his back, looking like he was in grave trouble in the fifth and sixth round of Zepeda’s attack.

Shakur does not hit almost as tough as a farmer and is less willing to absorb shots. I am trying make a break for it When the Mexican Tom Puncher Zepeda begins to put it in. It can be a fight on the track, just like the fans saw in the fight of Stevenson with Edwin de los Santos in 2023. When Puncher Tomu massacre the warrior, the last thing they do is desperate retreat. They basically gave up the fight and try to save themselves, escaping. This is the case in war and boxing.

“So it’s so fascinating there. I can try to get places in Up-to-date York. I wouldn’t mind watching it,” said Hughes about the fight of Stevenson-Zepeda.

“” Delicate Hands “Shakur Stevenson can cost him vs. Zepeda, says Hughes.
