Explained competition of Mikael Mayer-Sandy Ryan
In less than a year, Mikael Mayer and Sandy Ryan perhaps developed the most cruel and fierce competition in the history of women’s boxing. The insults threw themselves at this and back both before and after their fight in September last year, and the decisive decision of the judges in this fight led us to the Saturday rematch in Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
And don’t forget that Ryan suffered an attack on his way to Madison Square Garden for the first fight. Leaving her hotel in Fresh York, a can of red paint through someone on the street hit her. Ryan blamed Mayer and her team, which they denied.
There is also a problem of trainers. “Coach Kay” – Kay Koroma, who, for most of her career, trained by most of her career, went to coach Ryan to fight Mayer and will be in Ryan’s Corner again this weekend.
Mayer (20-2, 5 KO), a 34-year-old American, will be the first time to defend the WBO semi-edited weight title after the first fight ended when she made the decision on the majority (95-95, 97-93, 96-94) over Ryan (7-2-1, 3 KO), 31 and England. Here’s how we came to this moment in Ropienia.
January 24, 2024: Mayer, from Colorado, but based in Las Vegas, debuts in a welterweight, but loses a divided decision for Natasha Jonas in Liverpool, England. Mayer calls on an immediate rematch.
Mayer, who prevailed as a united junior featherlight champion for two years, until she was beaten by Alycia Baumgardner in 2022, does not get a rematch, but her mighty performance after increasing the weight to face Jonas, places her on the radars of other leading wooden wispas.
March 24, 2024: Ryan from Derby puts himself on a collision course with Mayer, defending her WBO -two -edge scale title with an excellent four -shaped victory over Terri Harper. Ryan’s best win in his career as one of the leading characters in welterweight.
Then Ryan calls Jonas and Chantelle Cameron, her English rivals, but they have other plans. Ryan wants a well -known name, but who is available? Competition with Mayer is bored behind the scenes and is going to explode.
June 26, 2024: Mayer claims in social media that Ryan has rejected the offer to fight her. Ryan responds in social media: “I will fight you at any time and every day of the week the queen of the drama. But when the offer was terrible to me, that I would defend my belt and nothing else comes to you through my team.”
A bad feeling emanates Ryan’s move to train with trainers who worked with Mayer. Ryan started working with coaches Kay Koroma and Flick Savoy after her draw with Jessica McCaskill in September 2023, and this upset Mayer. The American has trained with Koroma for eight years and felt that there was a conflict of interests since she wanted to go to a welterweight. So Mayer left Koroma to train with Kofi Yantuah after her defeat with Jonas. A few weeks after online exchange Ryan vs. Mayer is announced on September 27.

September 26, 2024: During the Fight Week, the surname Koroma inevitably appears malicious exchanges at media events.

Sandy Ryan accuses someone from the band Mikael Mayer in a painting attack
Sandy Ryan explains why he thinks that someone from the opponent’s team Mikaeli Mayer threw a red paint at her.
September 27, 2024: Before arriving in Madison Square Garden to fight, Ryan feels siege. When he leaves his hotel in Fresh York, Ryan is hit with a can of paint, leaving her splashed in red.
Emotional and shocked Ryan sits with Marek Kriegel ESPN after arriving at the garden and says: “I left the hotel room to meet my band down, and there were cars waiting for us to enter and I was to get into the car when something crashed in my stomach.
“When I looked down, it was a can of paint. He looked up and a hooded guy, he ran, jumped into the car and drove away. He would hit and run.”
Ryan thinks he knows who is behind the attack. “Mikael Mayer definitely gets it,” says ESPN. “This is definitely a configuration of her team. Who knew what time I was going out [of] hotel? I kept peaceful throughout the week, and they are still trying to ruin my way of thinking. “
Later in the evening, the fight itself is brilliant, tenacious scrap. Both warriors have good moments. In the opening round, Mayer shakes Ryan with a huge right hand. Round 3 is intensively canceled from the fingers. During the fight, Mayer lands keen combinations and Ryan weighty left hooks. Mayer has a greater success in the 10 round, and her combinations and a mighty finish may make a difference on results cards. According to Compubox statistics, Mayer will land 41% of its power strokes compared to 37% Ryan. But the history of the fight applies to what happened before they got to the ring, like playing 10 rounds.
September 30, 2024: Ryan releases the statement that the paint attack was not the only thing she had to fight on the day of the fight.
“Of course, the painting attack received a lot of coverage, but I was also subjected to a disgusting and pathetic smear campaign on the day of the fight, in which hundreds of leaflets containing my image and defamating the text were widespread and placed on the streets surrounding my hotel and Madison Square Garden both before and after the fight,” Ryan wrote.
“ESPN won two rounds [ESPN’s Kriegel scored it 96-94 in favor of Ryan] I know that many other respected boxing observers also won the fight. In the featherlight of everything that happened, I think that an immediate rematch should be ordered.
“Boxing deserves much more than this type of bandit.”
Agent Mayra, George Ruiz, denies the claim This Mayer’s team was behind him, addressing Ryan directly: “Let me explain: no one associated with Team Mayer had nothing to do with the attack on you or leaflets and alive anonymous unsafe messages that, as you say, you have received.”

The film shows an unidentified person leaving the SUV driver’s seat parked in front of the hotel and slowly going towards Ryan, carrying the object in his right hand, and then throwing this object in Ryan from escaping to the car.
January 30, 2025: The rematch has been announced, and Ryan claims that this time it will be a different fight. “After what happened before the fight last time, I fought angrily and it clearly influenced my performance,” he says.
February 5, 2025: The quarrel continues “The Ariel Helwani Show. “” You don’t like me, because I called you on your s — “Mayer says.” You came to my country and tried to train with my team, even sent me a letter with information: “I’m sorry” … “
Ryan says again that she achieved worse results in the first fight because she was affected by the attack before Congress.
“He thinks I’m mentally broken, mentally frail and so on,” said Ryan.
“We’ll see who will be broken one after this fight. I believe that this time I will stop him. I did not sit on my shot because I fought for emotions and anger. Let’s see if he can make shots when I connect this time.”
February 16, 2025: Mayer suggests that it could have been The fan who carried out the painting attack.
He says in Great Britain Talksport: “The rumor is that Sandy is not a very nice person in his hometown, so he is probably on my turf, trying to find a band because he can’t find one house. Maybe it was someone who just despises Sandy. … It may be very straightforward to be a fan.”
March 9, 2025: Despite the controversy around Ryan’s first fight and her intensive competition with England, Mayer is called British Boxing Board of Control’s Foreign boxer of the year.
