Thorslund vs Luna – FITE TV – Sept. 1 – 2pm ET

The stage is set for a blockbuster event at Graakjaer Arena in Holstebro, Denmark, on September 1st. It’s a ‘champion vs champion’ clash featuring Danish sensation Dina Thorslund and Mexican powerhouse Yuliahn Luna Avila. They’ll go toe-to-toe for the WBC, WBO, and the vacant Ring Magazine world women’s bantamweight titles.

Thorslund, age 29, has an unblemished record of 19-0, with eight of those wins coming by knockout. She’s not just defending her WBO title for the fourth time but also gunning to add two more world titles to her resume. On the opposite corner, Luna, also 29, holds the WBC title with a record of 25-3-1, with only four victories via stoppage. Luna’s durability and ability to go the distance might give Thorslund a run for her money in the scheduled 10-round bout.
