Baumgardner (18-1) became undisputed at super featherweight in 2023. She tested positive for a banned substance, and though she was later deemed not guilty, it slowed her career down. “The Bomb” signed with Most Valuable Promotions and recently beat Bo Mi Re Shin in April.
The 32-year-old has her eyes on Caroline Dubois, the unified lightweight champion. Baumgardner aims to be undisputed in another weight class, first by taking Turhan’s title.
“Her [Elif Nur Turhan] power is legitimate. Yes, we’ve seen that with her previous fights, but for me, this is something that I’ve seen before,” Baumgardner said.
“Skill pays the bills. Real skill. I know what it is to have great defense. I know what it is to shoot down the middle. I see all that wild punching. I see it. I’m blocking.”
The Sporting News’ 2025 Women’s Fighter of the Year, Turhan (14-0) has successfully defended the IBF title twice. She aims to go 3-0 in 2026.
Perhaps getting overlooked in this fight. Turhan’s ready to prove she’s worthy of holding gold.
“I don’t know how Alycia [Baumgardner] prepared for the fight, but all I know is I prepared for every single situation possible, and I know that I’m ready and I’m ready to go,” Turhan said.
