Unified super-featherweight champion Alycia Baumgardner is on the hunt for the sport's biggest names, with Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano, and Mikaela Mayer topping her list. 'I'm after the most significant fights out there - bring them all on,' Baumgardner asserted. For the American boxer, these high-profile fights take precedence over a potential match against Britain's unified lightweight world champion Caroline Dubois. Baumgardner emphasized, 'I'm focused on the biggest and best fights available, and when the time is right, the Dubois fight will happen.' Before pursuing these marquee bouts, Baumgardner must first defend her WBA, WBO, and IBF super-featherweight titles against Bo Mi Re Shin at New York's Madison Square Garden Theater.
'My opponent is a fierce warrior, but I'm hungrier and sharper,' Baumgardner said. Meanwhile, Shin is determined to derail Baumgardner's plans, stating, 'Alycia has always been my target, and now it's time for me to claim her belts.' The highly anticipated fight between Baumgardner and Shin will be broadcast live on Sky Sports from 3am on Saturday morning.
