World Boxing
Federation (WBF) Womens World Flyweight Champion
Amira Hamzaoui will make her second title defense on
Saturday April 23 at the Hall des Sports Pierre
Gaspard in her hometown of Epernay, France, when she
takes on Mexican Isabel “La Estrella” Milan.
Hamzaoui,
12-1 (5), won the WBF World title in October 2014 by
beating then undefeated champion Raja Amasheh in
Germany, and made her first defense last April in
Epernay with a unanimous decision over resilient
Hungarian challenger Alexandra Vlajk.
After a
thorough training camp where she has prepared by
sparring the likes of WBF Womens World Light
Flyweight champion Anne Sophie Da Costa, reigning
French champion Sandy Coget and undefeated prospect
Justine Lallemand, Hamzaoui is now ready for a tough
challenge from Milan.
Isabel
Millan, 15-2-1 (8), is a pro since 2011, and will be
fighting outside of her native Mexico for the first
time in what will also be her first world
championship bout. Last August she captured the WBF
International Flyweight title, and has since stayed
busy with two non-title fight victories, most
recently in February, while waiting for her big
chance.
The boxers
have each expressed how hungry they are to put on a
great performance and to leave no doubt about the
result, so if they both manage to deliver on their
promises inside the ring it is bound to be a
fast-paced and action-packed affair.
Promoted by
Jerome Vilmain and the Boxing Club d´Espernay, the
Hamzaoui vs. Millan WBF Womens World Flyweight title
fight is the main event of a highly anticipated
event, and fans are expected to turn up in large
numbers to support the local heroine.
