Ramla Ali fights for two world titles

Ali faces unbeaten American Mikiah Kreps for the vacant IBF and WBO super-bantamweight titles in the chief-support contest.

The bout moved up the running order after Ellie Scotney withdrew from her planned meeting with Tiara Brown through injury. Read our Scotney withdrawal report for the background.

Most Valuable Promotions lists Ali at 11-2 and Kreps at 11-0 ahead of their ten-round contest.

Skye Nicolson also faces Miyo Yoshida for the WBC super-bantamweight title, as listed on Sky’s schedule.

Baumgardner targets a second weight division

Turhan enters the main event unbeaten in 14 professional fights, with eight stoppages. Baumgardner brings an 18-1 record with seven stoppage wins, according to the promoter.

The American’s move to lightweight puts her in a new championship division, but first she must overcome the reigning IBF titleholder.

The main event is scheduled for ten three-minute rounds. Follow the result and further world-title developments through our boxing coverage.
