Tiara Brown to Defend WBC Featherweight Title

Tiara “Dark Menace” Brown will defend her WBC featherweight world championship on September 20.

Her opponent will be French fighter Emma “Valkyria” Gongora, in a bout to be held at the Bayou Music Center in Houston, Texas, as the co-feature of the OTX 16 event.

Brown won the title earlier this year after defeating Skye Nicholson by split decision and enters the fight with a perfect record of 19 wins, 11 by knockout.

Gongora, a former WBC champion and winner of the 2022 WBC Francophone lightweight title, has a record of 10-3-1 with 1 KO.

This will be Brown’s first title defense, as she aims to establish herself as one of the top figures in women’s boxing.
