[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

LAS VEGAS - Mikaela Mayer became a unified 130-pound women's world champion Friday night. Maiva Hamadouche had every reason, however, to believe she had done enough to make their 10-round title unification fight extremely competitive. France's Hamadouche made Mayer work virtually every second of every two-minute round in an action-packed dogfight that headlined a six-fight card at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas.

WBO junior lightweight world champion Mikaela Mayer wants to make more history. Mayer will take on longtime IBF world champion Maiva Hamadouche in a title unification tilt this Friday, Nov. 5 at The Theater at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas. This will be the first time a female world title bout has headlined a Top Rank on ESPN card since the most recent incarnation of the series debuted in July 2017.

Mayer (15-0, 5 KOs), ranked No. 5 on ESPN.com's pound-for-pound list, is making the second defense of the title she won in October 2020. Hamadouche (22-1, 18 KOs), from France, has defended her title six times and is unbeaten since a 2015 decision loss to Belgian star Delfine Persoon.

Before Mayer enters the ring, Top Rank Knockout and Miss Nevada 2019 Tianna Tuamoheloa will perform the national anthem. Mayer will also have some rocking reinforcement accompanying her to the ring. Modern guitar legend Nita Strauss will perform Mayer's walk-out song. Mayer and Strauss were teenage bandmates in Lia-Fail, a punk rock group that featured Mayer as its bassist.

McGregor got KTFO

Mcgregor just got starched but arguably beat Kyrone Davis 2 months ago.

I know styles make fights, but Benavidez might seriously damage Davis next week...

Okay, I'm immediately rooting for Green, the guy without the stupid cupping marks on his back.
