Upcoming WIBA Bantamweight World Title Fight in Incheon

In an exciting development for the world of women’s boxing, a Women’s International Boxing Association (WIBA) bantamweight world title fight is in the works for next year in Incheon.

Preliminary Victory for Professor Seo Ryeo-kyung

Leading up to the highly anticipated title match, Professor Seo Ryeo-kyung, a distinguished pediatrician at Soonchunhyang University’s Cheonan Hospital, recently secured a monumental victory in the ring. Facing off against Thai boxer Kulatida Kuesanori, the professor emerged triumphant, clinching a Technical Knockout (TKO) in just 15 seconds of the third round. This impressive win brings Professor Seo’s professional record to 7 wins (5 KO) and 1 draw in 8 fights.

Notably, Professor Seo is also the reigning Korea Boxing Commission (KBM) Korean Women’s Flyweight Champion, further solidifying her position as a force to be reckoned with in the world of women’s boxing.

Looking Ahead

With her eye on the upcoming WIBA World Bantamweight World Title match in Incheon, Professor Seo remains focused and determined to continue making her mark in the sport. In the event of a victory, her next aim will be to compete in one of the four major world boxing organizations (WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO).

Having initially taken up boxing in 2018 as a means of relieving stress from her work at the hospital, Professor Seo’s ascent in the sport has been nothing short of remarkable. Her debut on the professional stage in 2019 showcased her formidable punching ability, and her subsequent achievements, including becoming the Korean KBM light flyweight women’s champion, have propelled her into the spotlight as a standout athlete.

As she continues to prepare for the upcoming title match, all eyes are on Professor Seo as she strives to further elevate the profile of women’s boxing on the global stage.
