Mikaela Mayer vs Natasha Jonas start time: When are ring walks in UK and US tonight?

Women’s boxing gets its first big fight of the year this weekend, as Natasha Jonas and Mikaela Mayer clash for the IBF welterweight title.

Jonas, a two-weight world champion and Olympic veteran, will defend the belt in front of a hometown crowd in Liverpool, as American Mayer once again ventures to the UK.

Jonas, 39, collected the IBF belt last year after becoming unified champion at super-welterweight in 2022, while Mayer, 33, is a former super-featherweight champion.

Mayer held two titles in that division until her narrow loss to Alycia Baumgardner in 2022, but she bounced back with an interim-title win at lightweight in 2023, before moving up a division again. Now she moves up one more time to challenge Jonas in enemy territory.
