Nikki Adler Vs Zane Brige, The World Boxing Federation returns to Russia on Saturday May 25, when undefeated German Nikki Adler fights Latvian Zane Brige in what is anticipated to be an exiting rematch at the Olympic arena in Volgodonsk on a show promoted by SKV Boxing.
Nikki Adler and Zane Brige will clash for the vacant WBF Women’s Super Middleweight title just relinquished by Christina Hammer, who has decided to defending the WBF Middleweight crown she also holds.
Born in Augsburg, Germany to Croatian parents, Adler whos birth name Nikolina Orlovic was a proven amateur. She turned pro in December 2010 and won the German national title in only her fifth fight, three months after defeating Zane Brige on points in their initial meeting in February 2011.
In October 2011 Nikki Adler won a European title by beating the very respected Pia Porter. In 2012 she only fought once, winning a minor championship, while she started 2013 by capturing another belt beating Bosnian Edita Lesnik. Now 9-0 (6), she is ready to give Zane Brige another chance but this time for a world championship.
Zane Brige brings a modest and deceiving 2-2-1 professional record, as she has good amateur record. She won the Latvian national title in only her second fight, and lost a split decision to Marija Pejakovic in the Czech Republic for a minor title in 2011, so she have formerly proven herself at championship level.
If the rematch is anywhere close to as competitive and entertaining as their first fight, Russian boxing fans viewing at ringside along with TV will likely be in for a treat. Both boxers choose to mix it up, and both believe they have the means to prove this time who is actually the better of the two.
