We guarantee a fierce, relentless battle where everything is left on the line. Two warriors, one fight and only one winner.”The 32-year-old Baumgardner<\/a> described this as a ‘fight in her backyard’, is looking forward to making history and fancies chasing undisputed status in a second weight class after nine years campaigning at 130 pounds. That’ll be music to the ears of Ring and unified champion Caroline Dubois,<\/a> who has long called for a matchup between them.<\/p>\n Dubois defends her Ring, WBC and WBO lightweight crowns against Colorado’s Amelia Moore (4-0, 1 KO) on the Mikaela Mayer-Chantelle Cameron undercard on August 29 at the bp pulse LIVE in Birmingham, England. <\/p>\n “When I set my mind to something, I see it through and 135 will be no different,” Baumgardner said in the same release, which confirmed the four marquee names will feature in an official kick-off presser from the West Midlands city on Thursday.<\/p>\n
