Jonas Vs. Mayer: Where To Watch Info
Natasha Jonas and Mikaela Mayer face each other on January 20, 2024, in an IBF Welterweight Title fight from Liverpool, England.
Jonas enters the fight as the favorite, as she defends her IBF Belt, which she acquired after stopping Kandi Wyatt. That made her a two-division champion, a feat which followed her accomplishments at 154 pounds. Jonas was the WBC and IBF champion, having beaten Patricia Berghult and Marie-Eve Dicaire. She has won her last five fights and fights in her hometown, as Mayer has it all to do.
Mayer is not a pushover, having won world titles. She is the former Super Featherweight Champion. She defeated Ewa Brodnicka to grab the WBO Super Featherweight Belt. Mayer added to that by getting the IBF and Ring Magazine Belts. That then ended as she lost to Alycia Baumgardner. Since then, Mayer has won her last two bouts, beating Lucy Wildheart and Silvia Bortot.
Pre-Fight Comments
“I just think it will be a good fight. We’ve both got the IQ and ability to be able to box. We’ve both got the skill and strength to be able to fight, if we need to. I think our styles will gel to make a great fight. I’m not going to be a reactive fighter waiting to see what she pulls out the bag, I’m going to be putting my best foot forward and making her worry about me from the get-go,” Jonas revealed
“The respect has to go out the window that first round because I know that I’m in her hometown, I may not have the crowd in my favour. This is two quality opponents, we’re both at the top of our game, tons of experience, and so we both don’t want to lose. I have no room to let a round or two slide away, so it’s no respect from that first bell,” Mayer said
