Skye Nicolson.
The Australian has built a steadily rising career within the WBC, standing out for her polished style, discipline, and ability to control distance with surgical precision.
After a successful amateur run, Nicolson entered the professional ranks with consistent activity and solid victories over experienced opponents. Her growth led her to capture the WBC interim featherweight title, the first Green and Gold Belt of her career.
Nicolson became the WBC featherweight world champion in 2024 after defeating Sarah Mahfoud by unanimous decision. Her reign included three title defenses in a single year.
She has maintained strong momentum, establishing a consistent and technical boxing style that positioned her as the mandatory challenger for the interim super bantamweight title. For Nicolson, this fight represents a gateway to an eventual shot at the WBC absolute super bantamweight world title.
Yulihan Luna.
Luna Ávila is a tough, resilient fighter with a proven track record at the elite level of women’s boxing. Her name gained global prominence in 2020 when she won the WBC bantamweight world title by defeating Mariana Juárez via unanimous decision.
She defended her title and established herself as one of Mexico’s most disciplined fighters, combining high punch output with physical strength and a relentless pace that wears opponents down.
In 2023, she vacated her title to move up to super bantamweight, where she quickly positioned herself among the top contenders in the division. Her championship experience and aggressive style make her a real threat to Nicolson’s ambitions.
This Saturday, both fighters will seek a victory that will change the trajectory of their careers and open the door to the WBC absolute world championship.
