The Amazing Regina Halmich Does it Again

One of the top women fighters in the world saw action in Karlsruhe, Germany tonight as Regina Halmich retained her WIBF Flyweight trophy with a close split decision over previously undefeated Maria Jesus Rosa in front of over 4,000 onlookers at the DM Arena. It was a torrid affair from the start with the shorter Spanish challenger looking to press in close on the first lady of European boxing. In a dramatic back and forth contest it was the sheer toughness and experience of Halmich which saw the 28 year old from Karlsruhe through a difficult defense. Light Fly Champion Jesus Rosa picks up her first loss to go to 19-1 (4) while Queen Regina now boasts a magnificent mark of 48-1-1 (15) after competing in her 44th major title fight. WIBF-GBU Flyweight titlist Viktoria Milo of Hungary may be next up for the durable German.
