Nicole Wesner successfully defended
the World Boxing Federation (WBF)
Womens World Lightweight title for
the sixth time on Saturday night,
April 1, at the Hotel
InterContinental in her home-town of
Vienna, Austria.
World champion since December of
2014, Wesner stopped former foe
Hasna Tukic from Bosnia &
Herzegovina in the fourth round.
Wesner had won their first fight in
2017 by decision.
Wesner, from Germany but based in
Austria, remains undefeated at 18-0
(8). Tukic, fighting out of Germany,
drops to 12-9 (9).
In
another rematch, Austria-based Czech
Michaela Kotaskova set the record
straight against Moroccan Mahjouba
Oubtil to win the vacant WBF Womens
Intercontinental Welterweight title.
The pair had fought to a draw for
the same title last December, but
this time Kotaskova came out on top
by split decision after another
close bout.
Judges Rainer Schwarz and Gerhard
Sigl scored it 97-93 and 96-94 for
Kotaskova, while judge Bulcsu Gabris
had it 96-94 for Oubtil.
Kotaskova took her professional
record to 3-0-2 (0), and Oubtil
falls to 4-3 (1).
The two World Boxing Federation
(WBF) title fights was part of
Bounce Fightnight promoted by
Boxteam Bounce.
