Following a black comedy debut which was impacted by an injury to her opponent, “Crayon Shin-chan,” Baby Sheba expressed her intention to try again, stating, “I will wait for Crayon Shin-chan’s recovery.” Jeon Su-min, who placed second in Japanese boxing, promised to support Jeon Su-min’s strong comeback.
The Korean conglomerate that was unable to launch the MMA Global Top 25 women’s team champion has announced plans to continue the matches.
Alyona Aguisheva (23, Russia) was set to compete against Jeon Soo-min (18) at Black Combat Rise 6 in Osan, Gyeonggi-do on March 22 in a 5-minute, 3-round bantamweight bout (61kg). However, Jeon Soo-min’s injury led to a cancellation of Aguisheva’s participation, revealed just three days prior to the event.
The Open Fighting Championship in Russia ranks as the seventh-largest MMA organization in Europe and the 23rd-largest globally, featuring 37 athletes in the “Fight Matrix” world rankings. Alyona Aguisheva secured the OFC bantamweight title after her first professional match in June 2024, continuing to enhance her prominence in the sport.
