Three-time European champion Mary Romero is ready for another shot at a world title. On December 12, she will face Mexico’s Ashley Gonzalez for the WBC Super Flyweight Championship in Hamburg, Germany, live on DAZN.
Romero(10-6-0, 2 KO) has been here before; earlier this year, she lost by technical knockout to Dina Thorslund in a last-minute world title fight. “I barely slept, dropped weight at the airport and didn’t rest before the fight,” Romero explained. Still, she remains determined to compete for a world championship again.
Now, the 39-year-old Spaniard moves up to Super Flyweight, a division in which she has never fought for a belt, but is ready to conquer. Romero’ s previous European title reigns included big wins over Ivanka Ivanova, Amy Timlin and Maria Cecchi.
Despite setbacks, including a controversial loss to Seren Cetin and a tough loss to Rianna Rios in Washington, Romero is determined to regain her place at the top. Gonzalez (16-2-0, 7 KO), currently on a six-fight win streak, presents a tough challenge, but Romero is motivated to take home the gold.
At 39, Romero knows the stakes are high, but she’s ready to leave it all in the ring for another shot at glory.
