Delfine Persoon prevails in the lion’s den – stops Nicole Boss in round nine
Delfine Persoon once more proved that she is the best female lightweight in the world right now. The Belgian powerhouse wore down mandatory challenger Nicole Boss in her backyard in Bern (Switzerland) to defend the WBC Female World Lightweight Championship in convincing fashion by TKO after 0:45 minutes in the ninth round.
