Melissa McMorrow will make the second defense of her WBO flyweight title this Saturday in Magdeburg, Germany, against Nadia Raoui, on the EPIX-televised Arthur Abraham-Robert Stieglitz undercard.
Though McMorrow (8-3-3, 1 KO) will be invading Raoui’s hometurf, the 31-year-old San Francisco resident is far from intimidated, having traveled to Germany and defeated Susi Kentikian for the belt in the first place.
In fact, McMorrow released this statement after a camp that included sparring with 2012 Olympic bronze medalist Marlen Esparza: “I have been training hard for this fight and have had great sparring with experienced fighters in my area. My strength has improved a lot and I have been working on two major punch combinations; the first called the 'Tyson' and the second called the 'Marquez'. Please use your imagination on what these might be and tune into the fight.”
