German TV station ProSieben continues its Fight Night series with an eight-bout fight card in Düsseldorf on Friday 7th September.  The followers of women's boxing will be pleased by the news, that no less than 4 of the bouts are featuring female boxers, including the main event.

Kentikian (17-0-0), who has become increasingly popular with the the German TV audience since her first appearance on Fight Night in February this year, will be making her 3rd WBA title defence against Shanee Martin (8-3-0) of England. Martin's last fight was a GBU Title fight in Hungary against Victoria Milo, where she lost by a controversial split decision.

It looks like another tough fight for Kentikian, who had to work hard in her last fight against Nadia Hockmi of France.

Kentikian, who will be celebrating her 20th birthday 4 days after the fight, told WBAN that she is very much looking forward to get back into the ring after the summer break. She has spent the last weeks in a training camp in Frankfurt /Oder, and is happy with the progress she has made during her stay there.

WIBF Super Welterweight title holder Karolina Lukasik (7-0-0) will be facing Argentinian Gabriela Marcela Zapata (6-2-0) in a second World Titel Fight. The fight will also be for the vacant GBU Title, and an elminator for a WBC Title Fight.

Karolina Lukasik's boxing career started as an amateur in her native Poland, where she won more national championships and she ended her amateur career as reigning European Champion before signing up with Spotlight Boxing. Despite her very good results in the pro ring, she has had very little attention from the German Press so far - much less than she deserve. It will be very interesting to be able to watch this very talented southpaw in her first TV appearance.

The two remaining women's bouts will feature Flyweight Rebekka Hermann (9-1-0) against Maria Kriwoschapkina (0-1-0) of Russia, and the newly signed Magdalena Dahlen (5-0-0) will face Eva Liskova (5-3-1) of the Czech Republic.

The fight night will air on ProSieben on 7th September at 10:30 pm CET. There will also be a chance to watch Susianna Kentikian as a talk show guest on the TV Total show on Wednesday 5th September at 11:10 pm on the same channel.
