Dilara “She Wolf” Yucel from Turkey
won the vacant World Boxing
Federation (WBF) Womens world Super
Welterweight title with a convincing
performance on Saturday night at the
Steffl Arena in Vienna, Austria.
The 20-year-old stopped former WBC
Silver champion, and multiple world
title-challenger Judi Waguthii from
Kenya in the fifth round. Official
time of stoppage: 1:56.
Yucel was too fresh, fast and
accurate for her veteran opponent
and was in control from start to
finish, showing composure and focus
beyond her age.
Turning professional at seventeen in
2020, Yucel is now impressively
already a two-weight world champion,
having won the UBO world
Welterweight title in 2022.
She took her unbeaten record to 15-0
(10). Waguthii, a pro since 2005 and
only stopped inside the distance
once before, falls to 17-11-4 (5).
