Highlights first all-women’s WBC card in the US, broadcast globally for free on Brinx.TV and Fubo Sports, powered by Phenix real-time streaming

ATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, August 1, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Brinx.TV is excited to unveil a groundbreaking World Boxing Council (WBC) match that promises to captivate boxing fans worldwide. On September 27, 2024, the historic WBC Super Featherweight Championship bout, "Hit Like a Girl, Fight Like a Champion," featuring reigning champion Alycia Baumgardner defending her title against the #1 mandatory contender Delfine Persoon will take place on the Lux Stage at Trilith Studios in Atlanta, GA. This electrifying event will be the first-ever live boxing match set in an immersive world environment and will be broadcast globally on Brinx.TV and Fubo Sports and powered by Phenix real time streaming.

Alycia Baumgardner, with a standout record of 15-1, is celebrated for her exceptional skill, fierce determination, and dynamic boxing style. She became the undisputed female super featherweight champion on February 4, 2023, after unifying the WBC, IBO, WBO, IBF, and The Ring titles. Baumgardner will defend her WBC title against the relentless and formidable Delfine Persoon.

“This fight is more than just a return to the ring for me, it’s a statement,” said Baumgardner. “Headlining the first all-women’s card is an honor, and I’m ready to show the world the strength, resilience and skill that women in boxing bring to the sport.”

Persoon, a seasoned fighter from Belgium, boasts a distinguished career, including winning the WBA interim super-featherweight title in November 2019. Known for her perseverance and elite athleticism, Persoon is set to challenge Baumgardner for the WBC Super Featherweight title, aiming to cement her legacy in the sport.

“It is an honor and privilege to be spearheading a movement that is long overdue,” said John Brenkus, CEO and Founder of Brinx.TV. “Women in sports have been underpaid for far too long, and Alycia Baumgardner is leading the charge not only for female boxers but for women in all sports globally.”
