As the last bout of the Premier Boxing Champions show at the Don Haskins Center in El Paso, local Featherweight Jennifer Han (17-3-1, 1 KO) earns a successful championship victory in her hardest championship challenge to date in front of a large hometown crowd.
Bolivian Lizbeth Crespo (12-4, 3 KOs), now of Argentina, fought a grueling match, pressuring the champion and brawling relentless. Crespo kept Han from her comfort zone while controlling the pace, opening a cut over Han’s left eye in the 4th Round in the process while winning early rounds.
Han, having the adjust, found her established jab to maintain a distance from the damaging challenger, to regain her momentum in the second half of the bout.
After 10 closely contested championship rounds, the judges scored a close bout in favor of the defending IBF Featherweight Champion.
Jennifer Han retains her IBF title with official scores of 98-92, 96-94, 96-94.
