And then there were two.
Mikaela Mayer laid to rest heated rivalry with Sandy Ryan with a unanimous victory of a decision On Saturday evening in Las Vegas retained the Welterweight WBO title. And with Lauren Price Definitive decision to win Through Natasha Jonas on March 7, to add IBF and WBA titles to his WBC belt, there is only one fight in the Welterweight division.
The only procedure in the weight class should be an indisputable struggle for the title between Mayer and Price.
Price dominated Jonas to become a unified Welterweight champion and signal a change of guards. When it was Mayer’s turn to lift her end of negotiations, she did so with an excellent performance that showed her gravel and determination.
The first meeting between Mayer and Ryan in September was a narrow matter, while Mayer takes victory of a controversial majority decision. On Saturday he had an intense condition on Saturday. Ryan accused Mayer’s team of Paint attack before their first fightBut the champion of two divisions vehemently denied her involvement. At a time when the bell rang the match, both women tried to punish each other, but it was Mayer’s night. She was persistent and built a lead that was not enough to overcome Ryan.
It was Mayer’s third Welterweight event for the former united junior light champion and the interim light titlist and Mayer looked much better than in her latest fight. She sat on the strikes and jumped up an active blow. Ryan participated to be entertaining by landing with his right hand with a hard counter. But she couldn’t keep up with the busier Mayer.
“I had to move to Welterweight for a long time,” Mayer said after maintaining the title. “When I finally did it, it took a good solid year and a half hard work, and that’s where I am comfortable. I was supposed to be here.”
Mayer’s debut Welterweight came in January 2024 in a divided loss of decision -making about Jonas, then Price in March thoroughly overcome Jonas. But do not think that boxing mathematics will determine the result between Mayer and price. Mayer seems to have settled correctly in the weight class and it is not the same fighter who dropped this decision from Jonas, who at the age of 40 looked slower against the price than in previous fighting.
They have no other fighting with their victories, but for the next fight. Price and Mayer have proved to be a Welterweight class and the only thing that remains is to solve them who deserves to be called undisputed.
