Former four-time world
title-challenger Renata “The
Hardcore” Domsodi from Hungary
will get a fifth opportunity to
become world champion, this time
on home soil for the first time,
when she faces Romanian
Gabriella Mezei for the vacant
World Boxing Federation (WBF)
Womens World Bantamweight title
on July 24 in Budapest.
In 2012 and 2013 Domsodi came up
short against WBF, WBO and WIBF
Super Featherweight titlist
Ramona Kuehne in Germany, and in
2014 she lost to Zulina Munoz in
Mexico for the WBC Super
Flyweight crown and to Eva
Voraberger for the WBF and WIBF
Super Flyweight titles in
Austria.
A former WBF International and
Hungarian national champion at
Bantamweight, Domsodi will now
for the first time challenge for
world honors at her natural
weight, and despite a rather
mediocre 14-10 (6) record she
must be considered one of the
best in the world.
Gabriella Mezei, 7-5-2 (2), is
also a former world
title-challenger, as she fought
Stephanie Ducastel for the WBF
World Featherweight title last
December in France.
Mezei was a last second
substitute, and did amazingly
well in a very close fight
before losing by sixth round
retirement due to a fast-closing
eye. Quite an achievement,
considering the circumstances.
This time she has had more time
to prepare, and at only 22 years
of age she is nineteen years
younger than Domsodi (41) and
surely has youth on her side to
make up for her disadvantage in
experience. Both women are known
to be aggressive, and a tough
and entertaining fight is
expected.
The Renata Domsodi vs. Gabriella
Mezei WBF Womens World
Bantamweight title fight is the
main event of a show promoted by
Profibox-Promotion.
