Eye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: Mary Spencer face Femke Hermans in IBF and IBO World Championship.
Mary Spencer will have the opportunity to avenge her only career defeat inflicted on her last December by the Belgian Femke Hermans, as the IBO world title slipped through her fingers. The stakes are high for the EOTTM protégée, who will now have the chance to claim the vacant IBF world championship belt at 154 lbs. The showdown, set to take place on October 11 at the Casino de Montreal, promises to be highly explosive. Both athletes are deeply determined, and each of them will give everything they have to come out victorious in this rematch.
Following this heartbreaking loss, Mary Spencer (7-1, 5 KOs) showed great resilience and made significant changes within her team and training methodology. The Olympian evaluated the areas she needed to improve and sought additional resources and expertise to continue her progress. Her team is working together to optimize her training and maximize her results, and the progress is remarkable.
Since her victory over Spencer, Femke Hermans (16-4, 7 KOs) has successfully defended her IBO title twice through stoppage victories against Katarina Vistica and Maria Lindberg. The former WBO world champion hopes to achieve the same result on October 11 at the Casino de Montreal and is fully prepared to defeat the Montreal native once again.
The full card for this event will be announced later, but it can already be expected to feature the participation of Erik Bazinyan (30-0, 21 KOs), Wilkens Mathieu (3-0, 2 KOs), Leïla Beaudoin (9-1, 1 KO), Mehmet Unal (4-0, 4 KOs), and Jhon Orobio (3-0, 3 KOs).
