This Saturday, March 22nd, the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney will host a championship rematch between Cherneka Johnson and Nina Hughes. Johnson, the current WBA bantamweight champion, will be defending her title against a challenger determined to overturn the outcome of their May 2024 encounter. At 30 years old, the Australian Johnson comes into the bout with a solid record of 16 wins, 2 losses and 6 KOs. Her technical prowess and ring pressure are her established advantages. Meanwhile, the 42 year-old ex-champ Hughes is set to prove that age is just a number. With a record of 6 wins, 1 loss and 2 KOs, the British Hughes lost her title to Johnson by majority decision loss in May 2024. Hughes promises a more aggressive and tactical approach to avoid letting the fight go the distance.
