WBC Champion Tiara Brown faces France’s Emma Gongora In First World Title Defense.
WBC featherweight champion Tiara Brown (19-0, 11KOs) prepares to make the first defense of her world title when she steps into the ring on September 20th, against France’s Emma Gongora (10-3, 1KO) on OTX-16 fight card, taking place at the Bayou Music Center, in Houston, TX.
Brown, an undefeated force in the featherweight division, captured the WBC crown earlier this year, when she went across the pond to Australia, dethroning then-champion Skye Nicolson, marking the first defeat of Nicolson’s professional career. The victory not only solidified Brown’s status as one of the best in the division but also displayed her tenacity, by going into hostile territory and coming away victorious on the world stage.
Now, the Ft.Myer, Florida native is ready to prove that her reign has only just begun.
Standing across the ring will be Gongora, a determined challenger from France who has earned her shot with gritty performances on the European circuit. For Gongora, this fight presents an opportunity to shock the boxing world and claim championship gold.
This championship showdown on September 20th promises fireworks. Brown, known for her sharp boxing IQ and slick style, aims to put on a statement performance in her inaugural title defense.
