Matsuda and Rupprecht unite in Germany this Saturday – World Boxing Association

Published

on

World Boxing Association (WBA) lightweight champion Eri Matsuda will face Tina Rupprecht in a triple crown unification fight this Saturday at the Olympiastuetzpunkt Stadium in Heidelberg, Germany.

Matsuda’s WBO belt and the IBF belt, owned by Rupprecht, will also be at stake in the fight. The winner will inevitably be the best in a division that has become increasingly competitive over the years.

It will be a hard challenge for the Japanese fighter, as it will be her first defense of the black and gold crown, as well as her first fight outside her home country, which is a challenge for any fighter’s career.

In her last fight, Matsuda, 30, defeated Yuko Kuroki to take the pioneering promotion’s 102-pound crown in a brilliant performance that shocked the boxing world.

She will now face Rupprecht, a long-time minimum delicate champion in the past who lost her world crown to Seniesa Estrada in 2023. After this defeat, she decided to move down to a lower category and was crowned by defeating Fabiana Bytyqi in January this year, so this fight will mark consolidation in this fresh category.

Matsuda has 7 wins, 1 loss, 1 draw and 1 knockout, while Rupprecht has 13 wins, 1 loss, 1 draw and 3 knockouts.
