Francesca Hennessy Negotiates Bout with Champion Dina Thorslund
Francesca Hennessy, an unbeaten bantamweight boxer and daughter of promoter Mick Hennessy, is negotiating a fight against undisputed bantamweight champion Dina Thorslund in the United Kingdom for later this year.
Promotional company Boxxer has reportedly offered Thorslund nearly £250,000 to compete against the 21-year-old Hennessy in November or December. If successful, Hennessy would become the youngest undisputed world champion in the history of the four-belt era.
Hennessy, who is currently the top-ranked challenger with the WBC, has achieved two stoppage victories in her nine professional bouts. Thorslund, who recently claimed her titles by defeating Cherneka Johnson, is also in discussions regarding the fight, as confirmed by her manager.
