    The World Boxing Council (WBC) super featherweight title is at stake. Alycia Baumgardner (15-1, 7 KOs) will defend her title against veteran boxer Delfine Persoon (48-3, 19 KOs) on Friday in Atlanta.

    The fight will be Baumgardner’s first since July 15, 2023, when she successfully defended her undisputed super featherweight world title in a unanimous decision against Christina Linardatou. It was later revealed that Baumgardner tested positive for two banned substances – mesterolone and methenolone acetate metabolites – before the fight against Linardatou in July.

    After an investigation, the WBC ruled in January that Baumgarner was “not guilty of intentionally ingesting or consuming a prohibited substance for performance enhancement,” clearing the way for her to fight on Friday.

    Baumgardner will face a formidable opponent in Persoon, a 39-year-old veteran with over 50 fights to her name. Persoon held the International Boxing Federation (IBF) lightweight title in 2012 and the WBC lightweight title from 2014 to 2019.
