Persoon ready for St. Vil challenge
Melissa St. Vil, will challenge the WBC light world champion, Delfine Persoon, on March 9 at the West-Vlaanderen, Kortrijk, Belgium.
St. Vil is looking forward to this exacting test of firepower. She said: “I feel happy for this opportunity. I am a true warrior who does not retreat nor fear anything or anyone. So when I go to my rivals’ turf I become a dangerous rival.
“I will be facing a very strong and complicated opponent, in Persoon. It will not be the first time for me. I’m always traveling to fight, so the real question is how she’ll feel fighting with a strong fierce champion like me!
“I fully trust my team, I have had great preparation for such an important fight for the green and gold title. This stage has been very motivating! I’ll be ready for any fight style of my opponent.”
