Terri Harper, the reigning WBO Lightweight Champion, defends her title against the undefeated challenger Natalie Zimmermann.

  • This is the first meeting between Harper and Zimmermann, so no direct head-to-head data is available.
  • No reported injuries for either fighter as of the final presser and fight week updates.
  • Harper fights at home in Doncaster with strong crowd support in a GBM Sports promoted event expected to have over 15,000 spectators. This is Harper’s first title defense and a milestone event for women's boxing in the venue.
  • Harper is highly motivated to solidify her status and unify lightweight titles, expressing hunger and self-belief. Zimmermann is motivated by her undefeated streak and the opportunity to claim her first world title.
